The reception takes place in the context of a working visit to Texas by senior representatives of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

This festive evening brings together the Dutch business community and valued partners across Texas for an inspiring start to the new year. Join entrepreneurs, professionals, investors, and ecosystem partners for an evening full of insights, networking, and celebration at The Grove in Houston.

We are also honored to welcome our other special guests:
