Official visit of Namur

On December 8, 2015, the delegation of the Czech Embassy led by Ambassador Jaroslav Kurfürst visited Namur.
 

The visit was primarily dedicated to negotiations with the local government of the province of Namur. A further part of the visit was a meeting with the leadership of the local business school and the representatives of the University of Namur.

During negotiations with Governor Denis Mathen, the province administration presented its concept of supporting the local economy, based on establishing attractive conditions especially for small and medium sized enterprises operating with innovative business models.

The governor further informed the delegation about the development of the city of Namur which is based on the urbanistic “smart city” concept.  Namur was recently ranked second in Belgium in comparison with other similar cities.

Ambassador Kurfürst presented Czech Republic as a country with a dynamic and growing economy, and outlined the potential areas of cooperation with the Namur province. Members of the delegation were also the Honorary Consul in Namur J.P.Lothe, Trade Councillor M. Cech, and the directrice of the Czech Center K. Prunerova, who led talks with local authorities on cultural cooperation and participation at the film festival.
