BACoS LaunchpadLand well.
Get going fast.
Moving from Belgium to the American South is exciting, and it comes with a hundred small questions.
Where do I open a bank account? How do I build credit? Which attorney or accountant should I call? Where do I buy what my business needs?
With BACoS Launchpad, you don't have to figure it out alone. When you arrive and join the Belgian American Chamber of the South, we connect you with a Launchpad Mentor: an established professional in your area who has been where you are and knows how things work here.
Who is your Mentor? An established BACoS member or executive in your area, who once made the same move from Belgium and is happy to share what they learned.
A friend who knows the way.
A direct line.
Your Mentor is one WhatsApp message, text or phone call away. No appointments, no paperwork.
Any question goes.
Business practices, banking and credit, finding the right attorney, suppliers, schools, or simply where to find a good Belgian beer.
Two sit-downs.
Beyond the quick questions, you meet face to face twice to go deeper on what matters most to you.
Until you are settled.
Your Mentor stays close until you are up and running.
Professionals arriving from Belgium in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, North Carolina, South Carolina or Tennessee who join BACoS.
