Belgium Booms is a collaboration between VI.BE and Wallonie-Bruxelles Musiques. It supports and promotes Belgian artists abroad, and helps them and their entourage to develop a sustainable international career.
Organisations
Because of the governmental organisation of Belgium, cultural funding is not a federal, but a regional responsibility. This implies that the Flemish government and the French-speaking government each have their respective funding bodies and the (regional) organisations that come with it, each responsible for culture in/from their own region. For that reason there are several organisations on either side of the language barrier doing the same thing, and sometimes one responsible for Brussels as well.
