Last night the Dujat December Dinner could finally take place again at Hotel Okura Amsterdam. We were pleased to welcome a record number of about 450 guests, which made it our biggest dinner so far.
After words of welcome by Luc Houben, Chairman of Dujat, H.E. Mr. Horinouchi, Ambassador of Japan gave us a wonderful and touching speech.
The performance by Yuki no Hana gave the evening not only a musical but also a nostalgic touch, with two beautiful songs in Japanese, and one in English.
As for our guest speaker, unfortunately Hanne Buis could not make it, but we are thankful to Arthur Reijnhart, Director Commercial at Schiphol Group, for his presentation about the ups and downs and developments of Schiphol Airport.
Many thanks to all who attended the dinner, we hope you had a lovely evening and to those who are already looking forward to next year’s dinner: please save the date, 11 December 2023!
We are very pleased to officially invite members to participate in the festive end-of-the-year event: the Dujat December Dinner, which will take place on Monday 12 December at Hotel Okura Amsterdam. From today it is possible to make your reservations if you did not keep your reservation from last year. We still have limited seats and tables left, so we recommend not to wait too long.
The annual Dujat December Dinner is a tradition that started back in 2003 and has proven to be a truly prestigious event for the Dutch and Japanese Business Community in The Netherlands. A perfect ‘End-of-the-Year Party’ that could be a great networking opportunity for you and your business relations.
Unfortunately the event had to be canceled for two years in a row due to the corona pandemic, so we hope it can be organized again this year without any restrictions and limitations.
For this year’s edition, we are pleased to announce H.E. Mr. Hidehisa Horinouchi, Ambassador of Japan to The Netherlands, and Mrs. Hanne Buis, Executive Vice President & COO of Royal Schiphol Group, as our guests of honor, who will each give a short speech.
