Number of new foreign investments in Flanders (Belgium) 2004-2018
This statistic shows the total number of newly announced foreign investments in the Belgian region of Flanders from 2004 to 2018. Belgium has four governments, one national and three regional: Flanders, Wallonia and the Brussels Capital Region (the city of Brussels and its surrounding towns). When researching the country of Belgium, information may not always be available on the national level as the three regions have an autonomous status.
In 2018, foreign companies announced 234 deals in activities in the Flemish region. This is an increase when compared to the previous year. The source cites that the increase is mainly due to the chemical sector and names that the Austrian company Borealis invested one billion euros in a new propylene plant, which is to open in 2022 in Antwerp's port area.
