ESAE Events
Our events leverage our community's knowledge to answer our members' needs. We organise different events in Brussels and beyond, through in-person workshops, panel discussions, webinars and an annual masterclass. They constitute the opportunity for leaders and executives from a vast array of Associations to meet and learn from peers in all aspects of Association management. The overarching theme for 2026 is “Define Tomorrow, Act Today: Leading Together for Impact”.
Associations today are more than conveners or advocates — they are builders of trust, drivers of collaboration, and architects of shared progress. In an era where information moves fast and credibility matters more than ever, Associations stand out as trusted platforms where diverse voices come together to co-create solutions.
This year's overarching theme, "Define Tomorrow, Act Today: Leading Together for Impact" celebrates the potential of Association leadership as a driving force for impact and trust.
It brings together the clarity of intentional strategy and the momentum of purposeful action. By leveraging resources wisely and collaborating effectively, Association leaders can amplify their influence — transforming strategic intent into measurable results and reinforcing their essential role as agents of trust within their communities and sectors.
Ultimately, it empowers Association leaders to turn vision into implementation.
