On 21 January 2026, Nevi Contact Day (NCD26) took place at a truly iconic location: Beeld & Geluid in Hilversum. On behalf of the Board and Executive Management, Nevi welcomed its dedicated volunteers for an informal and inspiring evening, centred around connection, appreciation and looking ahead.
As every year, Nevi Contact Day was dedicated to expressing gratitude for the voluntary commitment of members of the Members’ Council, the Board and the Nevi communities. This year, however, the event had an extra special character. With Nevi’s 70th anniversary approaching in 2026, it was decided to organise NCD at the start of the year rather than at the end, serving as a festive kick-off to what lies ahead.
From 5.30 pm onwards, guests were welcomed with a drink to toast the new year, followed by an extensive dinner buffet. In a warm and relaxed atmosphere, there was ample opportunity to catch up and strengthen existing relationships, as well as to make new connections within the Nevi Community.
The value of these encounters was also highlighted by one of the participants:
“Nevi Contact Day feels like coming home every year. The combination of appreciation, meaningful content and conviviality makes this an evening that truly connects people and provides energy for what’s to come.”

Between 7.00 and 9.00 pm, Nevi shared its initial plans for the anniversary year 2026 with those present. An exclusive sneak preview offered a first glimpse of what Nevi has in store for this special year, generating enthusiasm, curiosity and positive energy throughout the room.
The evening continued with an interactive Top 2000 pub quiz, during which teams competed enthusiastically for first place. Team ‘TOPteam’ ultimately claimed victory and took home the prizes.
At around 10.00 pm, the evening concluded with a lively networking reception. Conversations, inspiration and a strong sense of connection took centre stage. Nevi Contact Day 2025 thus proved to be not only a moment of appreciation, but also a promising look ahead to an exceptional anniversary year.
A highly successful evening that will resonate within the Nevi Community for a long time to come.
