Pointury Black Connecting IT Leaders Logo

About us

We organise networking events for IT leaders in Belgium around an interesting topic, with an inspiring panel, motivated participants and with enough time and opportunity to network. 

We have organised online and physical events for dozens of IT suppliers and for hundreds of IT leaders. See references below. We have a performant system, tons of experience, a very strong personal network with IT leaders in the Belgium and most importantly the passion to make every event a success for all stakeholders.

 
Registration

How do we do it?

To prepare our events we select relevant topics, a date, a title, potential speakers, an agenda and all specifics of the event together with our sponsors (if any).

We find and coach speakers and send invitations to participants.

We build an event page and take care of registrations, confirmation and reminders.

We take care of all practical and technical aspects of the event and provide moderation.

After each event we write an article, add it to our publications and post a link to it on Linkedin.
