Flanders District of Creativity vzw previously supported entrepreneurs from all creative sectors (such as design, fashion, but also games, marketing, media, architecture, film, music and the arts) but from 2023 focuses entirely on design and fashion.

Flanders DC wants to advise, support and bring together designers, entrepreneurs and companies from the design and fashion sector in Flanders, both when starting up, growing, internationalising and increasing brand awareness and recognition, with an extra focus on sustainability, technology, inclusion and creativity. We also encourage collaborations between the design and fashion sector and with companies from other sectors that pursue innovation.

As a non-profit organisation, we work on behalf of the Flemish government but adopt a neutral position. 

The design and fashion sector includes: fashion, accessories, jewellery, illustration, textile, crafts, brand design, graphic design, web design, digital design, collectible design, furniture design and interior, product design, service design, social design, spatial design, systemic design and industrial design.
