The LCB's mission: to raise Luxembourg's profile internationally
For François LafontLuxembourg Convention Bureau's (LCB) CEO, the hosting of events by prestigious and influential organisations around the world is positioning Luxembourg as a first choice destination. This trend confirms that the LCB offers an exclusive range of business event conceptsThese are real levers for the economy, as well as tools for stimulating the development of ecosystems of businesses, start-ups, research laboratories and high-level sporting events. Take, for example, the TeamGym European Championships to be held in 2022 at Coque, Luxembourg's largest sports complex.
This sporting event, which attracted 3,000 spectators every day for a whole week, was a real logistical challenge for the LCB to find accommodation for the 870 gymnasts, federation officials and 170 volunteers from 17 European countries. Organising the event meant working closely with the Ministry of Sport, which supported it with the presence of the Grand Duke of Luxembourg and the Minister of Sport at the finals. It was this proactive and committed approach that convinced the European Gymnastics Federation to choose Luxembourg to organise this major event for the federation's image.
These two events perfectly illustrate the vocation and ambition of the LCB: make the Luxembourg metropolis a place that counts in the world of business event organisation. And it does so by focusing on premium services around unique incentive experiences that encourage innovation and showcase Luxembourg's boldness and creativity internationally.
