BECI follows the progress of startups on an individual basis with weekly workshops.

As Brussels is a bilingual city (French and Dutch) in which business people largely also master English, the use of a variety of languages offers easier access to the local community of entrepreneurs and greater visibility to startup founders via the content that they produce and push on their websites, blogs, newsletters, magazines and podcasts.
