A new chapter begins at bo-rd
bo-rd is a 14,000m² industrial site on the edge of Brussels, dedicated to reuse, making and experimentation – initiated and operated by RotorDC. It brings together a heterogeneous mix of spaces, activities and users, somewhere between a salvage yard, workshops and storage spaces, offices, meeting, event spaces and a wild garden.
RotorDC, holder of a long-term lease granted by citydev.brussels for the Da Vinci site, is embarking on a major transformation project with the support of European FEDER/ERDF funding and Triodos. The project aims to create an exemplary place where material reuse, production, creative practices and economic activities coexist in the heart of the city.
Join us for the official launch of bo-rd: discover the site, meet its residents and explore the project and its future.
