About

The Annual POLIS Conference 2026

Following a record-breaking 2025 edition in Utrecht with over 1,000 participants, the next Annual POLIS Conference will be hosted in Brussels, Belgium, on 2–3 December 2026.

The event will take place at THE EGG, a former warehouse turned conference centre, within walking distance of the Brussels South railway and metro station. The venue offers 5,000 m² of modular exhibition space, flexible break-out rooms, two large halls for social activities and an Auditorium with state-of-the-art audiovisual technology.

OUR CALL FOR SPONSORS IS OPEN

Become a Sponsor or Exhibitor

Sponsors and exhibitors at Annual POLIS Conference benefit from unparalleled exposure before, during, and after the event.

From high-profile plenary recognition and branded networking moments to digital visibility via the conference app and social media channels, the sponsorship programme is designed to maximise return on investment and audience engagement.

A comprehensive range of packages is available, including Diamond, Platinum, Gold, and Silver sponsorship packages, as well as tailored exhibitor options.

Exhibitors will have access to dedicated 6 m² or 12 m² stands within two exhibition areas integrated into the catering and networking spaces, ensuring continuous foot traffic and interaction with delegates.

Interested organisations are encouraged to consult the sponsorship brochure, download the application form, and secure their preferred package early, as several high-visibility options are limited.
