Save-the-date! Behind the Scenes of Building Across Asia – with Showtex

Webinar in the framework of the Asian BeLux Chambers network – led by the BLCC Hong Kong.
We are happy to announce the next event in the framework of the BeLux Asia Chambers Network: an insightful, exclusive webinar with Jan Blomme, Managing Partner at ShowTex Asia. He will take us behind the scenes of cross-border entrepreneurship in Asia.
When we look at successful international ventures, we usually only see the finished production—the polished milestones, the expansion, and the visible growth. We rarely see the rehearsals, the sudden script changes, or what happens when the backdrop comes down.
Blending personal storytelling with real-world case studies, this session traces an unconventional journey from hands-on technical project work to establishing and scaling operations across Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Japan. Rather than presenting a textbook playbook or an effortless success story, this talk offers an honest look at the realities of doing business across dynamic Asian markets—exploring the uncertainty, the quiet setbacks, and the resilience required to rebuild when conditions shift.
Whether you are scaling a business, leading a regional team, or navigating cross-cultural operations, this session offers grounded perspectives on what it really takes to grow and adapt in Asia.
