A Sold-Out Celebration Beneath the Waves - PMI Netherlands End of Year Gala 2025
On Saturday, December 13, more than 90 guests will step into a world unlike any other - because our highly anticipated PMI Netherlands End-of-Year Gala is officially SOLD OUT!
We are honored and thrilled by the overwhelming enthusiasm from our community.
This year, we’re diving into celebration. Our Gala will take place in the enchanting Shark Room at Diergaarde Blijdorp, where the evening unfolds like an underwater journey.
From 16:00 onwards, participants can expect a leisurely winter stroll through the park, wandering past serene gardens and quietly curious animals. As dusk settles, we’ll make our way toward the Oceana section.
By 18:00, glasses will sparkle as guests walk through the shimmering shark tunnel, welcomed by bubbly and bites while sharks glide above and rays drift silently by. From there, the evening immerses everyone in delicious food, inspiring conversations, and shared laughter - all framed by the mesmerizing aquatic world surrounding us.
And of course, we will gather to celebrate our wins, our community, and our future during our annual awards ceremony.
Honoring Our Gold Sponsors: ADValue PMC and PAiE
We are honored to have ADValue PMC as the Gold Sponsor of this year’s highly anticipated Gala. With more than 20 years of expertise in agile project- and construction-management — spanning from acquisition and tendering to execution and handover — ADValue PMC brings depth, reliability, and a results-driven mindset to everything they undertake.
We are equally proud to recognize PAiE NL as a Gold Sponsor of this year’s Gala. A volunteer-driven non-profit, PAiE NL has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality professional development through its full-day technical training events. Our collaboration with PAiE has grown meaningfully over the past two years, with joint sessions that bridge the worlds of finance and project management, One of the sessions, Finance Essentials for Project Managers, became one of PMI Netherlands’ most-attended webinars of 2024, prompting us to expand capacity to meet demand.
As the overlap and interdependencies between our professions continue to grow, we are grateful for the partnership of both PAiE NL and ADValue PMC, whose support as Gold Sponsors helps make this Gala possible and elevates the experience for our entire community.
PAiE’s commitment to continuous professional development and cross-disciplinary collaboration, alongside ADValue PMC’s dedication to transparency, added value, and excellence in project and construction management, aligns perfectly with the mission of PMI Netherlands: strengthening the project-management profession through quality, integrity, and continuous improvement. We look forward to deepening these partnerships in the years ahead.
We can’t wait to celebrate together - to look back on what we achieved, to connect with new and familiar faces, and to raise a toast beneath the waves to the exciting year ahead.
