What does it mean for a company to contribute to the resilience of the Netherlands? And what does it deliver for your own organisation? During this session, Dennis van Soest (Ministry of Defence) will speak with you about the value of reservists in the workplace.
You will discover what it means to be a reservist employer and how defence expertise, leadership, discipline and crisis capabilities are also of direct value within your business.
In addition, we will explore what resilience concretely means for companies in a time of geopolitical uncertainty and societal pressure. A reservist policy offers you an opportunity and is not a threat.
An inspiring session for organisations that want to build resilient employees and a resilient enterprise.

Not a man of one company, but a man of movements. His strength? Not shouting from the sidelines, but starting new companies himself that set the market in motion and challenge existing systems. That's how the jury of the PROVADA Inspiration Award 2026 describes winner Michel Baars. 'Michel gives direction to our entire construction and real estate sector.'

For three days, the real estate sector stood shoulder to shoulder at RAI Amsterdam. With a record number of visitors, a packed programme and plenty of energy, PROVADA 2026 was an edition to remember. Below, we look back at the highlights — and at the end you'll find the photos and aftermovie to relive it all.

At PROVADA 2026, the PROVADA Inspiration Award 2026 was presented to Michel Baars. The award is presented annually to an individual who realises sustainable change within the built environment through vision, courage and decisiveness. This year's presentation marks the award's fifth edition.
