About us

What once began as a networking event for the Belgian construction professional is today an international c-level community where people from all branches of the construction industry meet. This is the story of Chez Nous Cannes.

How it all began

Every year, the world’s largest real estate fair takes place in Cannes. Despite the scale of the event, it’s often challenging for Belgian visitors to connect with one another.

That’s why, over 13 years ago, Chez Nous was born - a dedicated event for Belgian construction entrepreneurs attending the international real estate fair in Cannes.

Since its inception, the concept of this annual, invite-only networking event has remained unchanged: a stunning location in the charming seaside town, high-quality catering, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The perfect setting to connect in peace and quiet.

C-level networking event

After 13 successful editions, Chez Nous Cannes has grown into a high-end networking event that attracts over 800 professionals from the Belgian and international construction industry to Cannes each year.

But Chez Nous is more than just an event - it has evolved into a true community of C-level construction professionals. A place to exchange ideas and insights on the key challenges shaping the future of the sector.

Topics include the European Green Deal, the shift towards smart cities, the impact of construction transitions, the ongoing drive for sustainability and innovation, increasing digitalization, PropTech, and more.

Yes, We Can(nes)

We are absolutely thrilled about our current Chez Nous Family. With 4 strong organizers and 32 engaged partners, we’re proud of the inspiring collaborations and the valuable exchanges within our community.

Looking ahead to 2026, we are excited to welcome a few brand new partners: AluK, Lydian, ABN AMRO MeesPierson & Widnell. Their expertise and fresh perspectives will further strengthen our network and contribute to an outstanding year.

Together, we look forward to working closely, sharing knowledge, and continuing to inspire each other and the broader community.

What will the future bring?

Chez Nous continues to grow and evolve as an innovative platform. With the success of the app and its presence at industry events like Provada and Expo Real, Chez Nous Cannes remains focused on strengthening its international reach.

The presence of guests from France, the Netherlands, Germany, and Luxembourg confirms that there is clear cross-border interest in a high-quality networking event for C-level construction professionals.

The key challenge for the coming years? Expanding the international footprint of Chez Nous Cannes — all while preserving its exclusive, high-end character.
