CCBP + CCLBL Trade Mission 2026 — A look back

From 5 to 9 October 2026, the Belgian-Portuguese Chamber of Commerce (CCBP), in partnership with the Câmara de Comércio Luso-Belga-Luxemburguesa (CCLBL), successfully organised a five-day trade mission to Portugal, bringing together business representatives for an intensive programme across Lisbon and Madeira.

Marking CCBP’s first trade mission in several years, this initiative represents an important milestone in the Chamber’s renewed commitment to fostering cross-border business cooperation, facilitating investment and creating tangible opportunities for its members.

Throughout the week, the delegation engaged with leading companies, institutional representatives and key economic stakeholders, gaining valuable insights into Portugal’s dynamic business environment, innovation ecosystem and investment opportunities.

From Lisbon’s thriving entrepreneurial landscape to Madeira’s strategic positioning as an international business and investment hub, the mission provided a unique platform for high-level exchanges, business networking and the development of new partnerships.

Beyond its immediate achievements, the mission also demonstrated the strength and potential of the partnership between CCBP and CCLBL. By combining our networks, expertise and institutional relationships, our two Chambers can deliver greater value to our members and play a more active role in strengthening economic relations between Belgium and Portugal.

We extend our sincere appreciation to all the institutions, companies and partners who welcomed our delegation and contributed to making this initiative a success.

A special thank you to CCLBL for its valuable collaboration and shared commitment to advancing bilateral economic relations, and to Les Voyages de Marie, the travel agency responsible for organising and coordinating the mission's travel and logistical arrangements, whose professionalism, dedication and attention to detail contributed greatly to the smooth running and overall success of the programme.

This mission was not only an opportunity to explore new markets and establish connections, but also an important step towards building a stronger, more ambitious and more connected Belgian-Portuguese business community.

We look forward to building on this momentum and developing further joint initiatives.

More opportunities, stronger partnerships and new trade missions ahead!
