GC Campus

As one of the world’s most innovative dental companies, GC has continuously made important and ground-breaking contributions to dental care. This is coupled with the philosophy to promote communication and understanding between dentists and technicians, with the aim of bringing new concepts, products and methodology to the market. This commitment to research and continual education has been the foundation for the GC Europe Campus, Meeting and Education Centre located on our site in Leuven, Belgium. This state-of-the-art environment enables us and our worldwide network of dental professionals to deliver hands-on courses, presentations and demonstrations of all our major technologies and products. We are confident these facilities help us encourage the exchange of knowledge and education between dental professionals throughout Europe and the rest of the world.

Historic Leuven Leuven, Belgium, is a vibrant city where centuries-old tradition meets youthful energy. Anchored by KU Leuven—one of Europe’s oldest and most prestigious universities—the city is an inviting tapestry of history, academia, and relaxed city life. The Gothic spires of the Town Hall and the serene beauty of Saint Peter’s Church set the tone for a stroll through cobbled streets lined with cafés and boutiques.

But when the sun sets, Leuven truly comes alive. The iconic Oude Markt, often dubbed “the longest bar in the world,” transforms into a buzzing hub of nightlife, with student bars, cozy pubs, and cocktail lounges lining the square shoulder to shoulder.

GCE Campus is just on the outskirts of the city centre and there is every opportunity to sample the charms of this beautiful city when you attend one of our courses, including perhaps a chilled bottle of Stella Artois, the iconic pilsner which was born and continues to be brewed here!
