Brussels is a melting pot of cultures and languages. It's mix of residents and tourists lead to unique combinations and every tech group inherits this diversity. Much like Brussels, our development community is also diverse in many aspects, from our origins and culture to our choice of framework and language.
BrusselsPHP wishes to create a friendly environment for every developer it encounters, everyone should feel comfortable and safe in our events and online community. More than that we wish this community to be a meeting point, a place where you can come and make new friends.
The spirit of BrusselsPHP has always been into helping developers find a safe place to meet peers and grow a better network and exposing the local community to new/different ideas and content.

For this we count on you also, to be aware of our inherent differences and to respect different opinions and cultures, to be respectful and kind to others.
