Partner Event
During its annual partner event, Bancontact Company brought together 200 partners at TheMerode in Brussels to thank them for their continued collaboration and offer an exclusive preview of its ambitions for 2026.
The goal?
A key highlight of the evening was the unveiling of the new name and brand identity, marking the transition from Bancontact Payconiq Company to Bancontact Company. During a panel discussion moderated by Michael Van Droogenbroeck, Kim Fuglsang Kristoffersen (Vipps MobilePay), Teresa Mesquita (SIBS) and Pascal de Greef (Comeos) shared their perspectives on the future of payments and collaboration within the industry.
The extra touch
The evening celebrated Belgian pride in every detail. Guests enjoyed a menu featuring Belgian classics and received traditional Ghent cuberdons as a local gift. Between the programme’s key moments, there was plenty of time to connect and network, including an exclusive ride on a privately hired Ferris wheel overlooking Brussels. Live saxophone performances and a DJ provided the perfect atmosphere to round off an evening filled with meaningful conversations, fresh insights and future ambitions.
