Scandinavia vs Belgium

9 years ago

Dear all,
I am a second year Master student in Business Engineering at the University of Antwerp, Belgium.
Currently I'm in the process of writing my master thesis with the aim of producing a practical approach for Belgian companies and organizations to expand their activities to Scandinavia. For this, among others, I'm researching the main differences (cultural, economical, political, demographical, social) between Belgium and Scandinavian countries, and among Scandinavian countries. A case study concerning a Belgian lingerie brand will be incorporated in this thesis.

Having lived in Oslo, Norway, for five months during an academic exchange in 2014, I hope to have experienced a little of the Norwegian culture. However I am still unsure about many of the nuances and on how these relate to other cultures.
For this reason, I hope to undertake some short interviews with individuals that have experienced one of these cultures and wouldn't mind elaborating on their opinions concerning the differences between any of these countries, and concerning buying behavior regarding lingerie if possible.

I was wondering if any of you would be interested to partake in a short interview?

I'd be glad to provide you with more information regarding my study or any questions you might have.
Thank you very much in advance for your time!

Kind regards,
Kimia Namadchi
