Audience for New Nobles + Young Professionals: Entrepreneurs

14 November 2017

King Philippe & Queen Mathilde granted an audience to the persons who have been granted a noble title or a royal distinction in 2017, at the royal palace in Brussels.

Patricia Vlerick acted as lady-in-waiting.

The ceremony included a cello recital by Miss Christine Lee, laureate of the Queen Elisabeth Music Competition of 2017.

Among the newly titled is Michèle Sioen, who can now use the title baroness. In a few months, Sioen and her husband will become Mathilde's new neighbours at the Stuyvenberg castle of the royal estate of Laeken. 

At night, the King & Queen hosted a dinner for young social entrepreneurs at their home, Laeken castle.
