VOKA - THE ARENA GENK

On June 5, 2025, Voka - Chamber of Commerce Limburg organized its annual networking evening at The Arena Genk, better known as the Cegeka Arena. With over 500 attendees, including top entrepreneurs and policymakers, it was a highlight of the Limburg event calendar.
But why did Voka choose this event location this year? And what made it a successful edition? 

For Voka, the annual meeting is more than a gathering - it is a time to share vision, build bridges and inspire Limburg entrepreneurs. So they sought a location for an event that offered more than just space. 

The setting had to: 

• Be large enough to accommodate several hundred guests 

• Business-professional yet warm to the touch 

• Be flexible for keynote, panel and reception duties 

• And preferably also have a unique look 

The Arena Genk turned out to be the ideal location for the corporate event. Not only because of its practical assets, but also because of its atmosphere: the link with sporting ambition, local anchoring and international appeal fitted perfectly with the Voka DNA. 

Benefits that made the difference for Voka: 

• Modular halls and lodges overlooking the field - ideal for dynamic formats 

• Professional AV support for the panel discussion with guest speakers from Cegeka, Monx Roasters and KRC Genk 

• Sustainability: including local catering partners, waste reduction and energy-efficient techniques 

• Central location in Limburg, easily accessible by car and public transportation 

• Symbolic value: a place where collaboration and peak performance come together 

 
The program combined content and connection. The stadium hosted an engaging panel discussion on international growth and leadership. This was followed by a stylish networking reception with a view of the turf, and finally a walking dinner in the business area.
The result: an event on location that perfectly combined content and experience. 

Also notable: the integration of Group Jam's latest electric Mercedes-Benz on the site - a nod to innovation and sustainability. 

For Voka, The Arena Genk was more than an event venue - it was a strategic choice. The unique atmosphere and the ability to sustainably host an event in a place with character reinforced the evening's message. 

Partner and guest satisfaction confirmed: this was not just another venue for an event, but a powerful catalyst for connection, vision and growth.
