    #𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺𝘀𝗯𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 #𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆: 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗲, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘄𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗹.  At SBE, we’re just as serious about delivering high-quality projects as we are about having fun. Whether it's designing complex technical masterpieces or cracking a joke over drinks, it’s all about finding that sweet spot between hard work and good vibes. 🍻 😎 Yesterday all Experts at Play came together for Let’s Connect - a chance to unwind and share some laughs. (Almost) everybody entered with a big smile (thanks to De Lachgasten) so De Casino was buzzing from the moment everyone walked in.  After a quick kick-off by co-CEO Jan Thomas, Lotte Van den Eynden jumped in with the big question from the event team: Do we stick with our beloved SBE weekend tradition, or is it time for something new? Opinions flew, laughter echoed, and the fun and dancing followed. 🎶💃✨ 𝗕𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝗕𝗘, 𝘄𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿. 𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀 #𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆!🎉

    𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄... at SBE, we like to get our shoes dirty – tackling complex projects hands-on to make a real difference.

This exciting opportunity puts SBE at the forefront of innovative solutions for infrastructure in Belgium. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹…  with this project, we're in the running for the "𝗜𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱" at the 𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗷𝘀 𝘃𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗲 𝗘𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗲 in Stad Sint-Niklaas!

Many bridges in Flanders are in dire need of an upgrade. The OverBruggen program will renew 49 bridges by 2030 through a public-private partnership (PPP), coordinated by the Departement Mobiliteit en Openbare Werken - Vlaamse overheid, Agentschap Wegen en Verkeer and De Vlaamse Waterweg nv. As part of this temporary partnership, SBE , alongside Arcadis and TRACTEBEL in the joint venture Bruggenbouwer, is taking a leading role. We’re committed to supporting the government with program and asset management, design, architecture and environmental management.
