550 Guests at the Heart of the Walloon Derby Between Charleroi and Standard

At Wanty Group, the passion for sport brings our teams together and is part of our DNA. As a long-standing partner in top sporting moments, we firmly believe that the values embodied by high-level sport — pushing personal boundaries, team spirit, and the pursuit of performance — are the very same values that drive our teams every day on the ground.

With this in mind, Wanty Group was keen to offer all of its employees a unique, unifying, and memorable experience: an invitation to the Walloon derby between Sporting Charleroi and Standard Liège.

550 employees united by a shared passion

The Charleroi–Standard derby is much more than just a football match. It is the most anticipated sporting event in Wallonia, a fixture steeped in history, intensity, and passion.

For this occasion, all Wanty Group employees were invited to experience the match up close, with exclusive access. 550 of you attended!

Upon their arrival at the stadium, employees were welcomed into the VIP marquee set up on the esplanade, facing the main stand. This was a convivial and welcoming space, designed to foster interaction and cohesion among colleagues, regardless of their role or profession.

A VIP experience, in true Wanty style

Because every detail matters, the event was organised in a decidedly festive and high-quality atmosphere:

• VIP welcome
• Open bar
• Meal
• Musical entertainment with a DJ
• Socialising and conviviality

A suspended moment before kick-off, where professional discussions naturally gave way to smiles, laughter, and a shared passion for sport.

These shared moments strengthen bonds, create common memories, and play a full part in building a strong and human-centred company culture.

At the heart of the action, in stand 1

After the pre-match build-up, it was time for the spectacle.
Guests made their way to Stand 1, right next to the pitch, to fully experience the intensity of the Walloon derby. An electric atmosphere, fuelled by supporters, chants, fervour, and that unique tension that accompanies major sporting events.

And the spectacle delivered: a resounding victory for Sporting Charleroi (2-0), in a roaring stadium. A powerful, memorable moment, collectively shared by Wanty Group employees.

Shared values between sport and our professions

It's no coincidence that Wanty Group has supported sport for many years. High-level sport is a constant source of inspiration for our teams, as it perfectly reflects what we experience every day on our construction sites, in our offices, and out in the field.

• Pushing personal boundaries: giving your best, taking on ambitious challenges, and always striving further.
• Team spirit: moving forward together, supporting each other, trusting each other to achieve a common goal.
• Pursuit of performance: aiming for excellence, with rigour, passion, and commitment.
• Resilience and determination: never giving up, even in adversity.

We share these values with the world of sport and embody them every day within Wanty Group.

More than just an event: a company vision

By inviting its employees to share such a powerful moment, Wanty Group reaffirms a deep-seated belief: collective success depends first and foremost on people.

Creating shared experiences, valuing team commitment, strengthening a sense of belonging, and sharing strong emotions are integral to our employer brand vision.

At Wanty, we build roads, infrastructure, and large-scale projects...
But above all, we build cohesive, committed teams who are proud to move forward together.
