Since 2012, we have been helping event organizers with a platform they can set up themselves, backed by a team that offers support or even a helping hand when needed. Small enough to know you. Large enough to be trusted by NATO.
As an entrepreneur in supply chain innovation, Elma Bassa went from event to event looking for the right people. However, genuine connections were missing, even though those people were definitely in the room. She also noticed that other stakeholders, such as exhibitors, were not sufficiently involved in the conversation, and that results were difficult for main sponsors or clients to measure. Seeing an opportunity to benefit everyone involved, she decided to build an app using her own resources. She created a space where all participants were connected, enabling them to efficiently share the right knowledge, expertise, and networks. Making bigger strides together, faster, without wasting time and energy—that is what she wanted to achieve.
Soon enough, interested parties within her network came knocking, eager to try it out. These included professional conference organizers who ran multiple conventions a year and kept reinventing the wheel each time, scientific committees tasked with organizing a conference alongside their regular work, and event agencies working for organizations like government ministries that needed a platform meeting all their requirements.
They weren’t just looking for an app; they were looking for someone who understood their challenges, brainstormed solutions for specific client requests, or stepped in when things didn’t go smoothly. That has become the core focus Networkapp has been built on ever since: technology paired with a team that takes care of the heavy lifting and puts people first.
We are a small team with a large client base that has stayed with us for years. That speaks for itself. Together with the development team, Michiel continuously builds and improves the platform; every quarterly update is based on what clients encounter in practice. Iris is the voice on the other end of the line: project manager, sounding board, and the reason our clients don’t know what a support ticket is. Elma steers our course and ensures we deliver on our promises. Yes, we are a SaaS company, but we come with a team that truly understands how an event organizer works and anticipates their needs every single day.
For many of our clients, security is not just a preference—it’s a strict requirement. Government contracts, scientific conferences, medical associations, high-tech companies. They work with sensitive attendee data and cannot afford to take risks. That is why we are ISO 27001 certified, comply with ARVODI 2018 and ARBIT 2022, and host our servers within Europe.
Every event and community comes with its own unique challenges and strict requirements. That is exactly why we don’t just build an intuitive platform, but also think along and assist you wherever necessary. This allows you to stay in control and keep your peace of mind, while your attendees connect effortlessly. Shall we grab a (digital) cup of coffee soon to find out what we can achieve together?
