Our Story
Brussels Express is an English-titled online news platform focused on Brussels and its region. Founded in 2017 by Portuguese journalist António Buscardini, it was taken over two years later by Pascal Goergen. A true insider of Brussels life since 1987, Pascal Goergen was a diplomat for the Brussels-Capital Region towards the European Union for more than 10 years and still teaches at the EPHEC university College in Brussels. As a result, he is in direct contact with the realities of Brussels, giving him an in-depth understanding of the dynamics of the region, its neighbourhoods and its inhabitants.
Our Spirit 3.0.
With a wide range of content, Brussels Express covers news from Brussels, culture, gastronomy, lifestyle, the diplomatic world, regional news and offers interviews, portraits and travel inspiration. The target audience is international, including expats, Brussels residents and institutional, economic and cultural sectors. The platform aims to promote a positive and dynamic image of Brussels, highlighting its cosmopolitan character, its cultural diversity and the vitality of its business environment.
Since the end of 2024, our media has also been offering interviews, portraits, quizzes and a section called Babel Hub where people can express themselves in their own language. Brussels Express also offers communication opportunities to companies, networks and organisations wishing to showcase their activities and other assets. It has 20,000 followers on its Facebook page and 90,000 views per month.
