Safe journey for BSV
Verbeke Foundation art gallery was the venue as 300 industry stakeholders celebrated the launch of the Belgian Shipping Federation. The flawless organisation by our event team ensured the journey started steadily.
New industry alliance
Launched on 1 January 2025, the Belgian Shipping Federation (BSV) is made up of three smaller federations in Belgium: the Antwerp Shipping Federation (ASV), the Bruges/ Zeebrugge Shipping Federation (SVBZ) and the Ghent Antwerp Shipping Federation (GSF). The new industry alliance represents the interests of its members, keeps them informed and hosts exclusive network events. A new chapter that could not be allowed to pass unnoticed. Challenge accepted!
Video with surprise
BSV’s new logo was unveiled in a very special way during the evening. In a prerecorded video, that was shot as though it was a live broadcast, BSV staff revealed the logo in a lighthearted setup. Very cool. As well as the video crew, our event team also played a vital role, ensuring everything went smoothly, including onsite branding. Our designers drew on their many talents to set up an email flow from invitations to thank you.
Stylish launch
Our choice of event venue was the Verbeke Foundation art gallery in Stekene, located between the ports of Antwerp, Bruges/Zeebrugge and Ghent. The invitees – stakeholders from the Belgian shipping industry – were the first to see the new logo and discover the course set by BSV for the next few years. Federal minister of Justice and the North Sea Annelies Verlinden also attended. The evening wrapped up with a standing dinner and a network reception. All guests also had the opportunity to visit the Verbeke Foundation art gallery.
