Dutch National Opera & Ballet has had a valuable partnership with its main sponsor, Houthoff, for the past five years. Driven by passion, ambition and expertise, we unite in our efforts, offering each other unwavering trust and boundless enthusiasm. At first glance, it might seem that a cultural institution like Dutch National Opera & Ballet (DNO&B) and a law firm like Houthoff have little in common. However, looks can be deceiving. As creative artisans and legal authorities, we share the ambition of enriching as many individuals as possible with our knowledge and talents. Moreover, we inspire and complement each other with our distinct areas of expertise, making this collaboration exceptionally valuable. Stijn Schoonderwoerd, general director of Dutch National Opera & Ballet: “‘Bespoke creation’ is our core shared principle. While DNO&B, as a cultural production house, consistently aims to create something new, Houthoff employs a customised approach for each case. In our collaboration, the recurring query is always: ‘What is your vision and how can we contribute to its realisation?’ This has led to distinct projects and events, such as a leadership course for Houthoff’s employees, led by a conductor, or the application of legal expertise in new costume reuse agreements.” Lucas Louwerier, managing partner at Houthoff: “Over the past five years, thousands of our clients and employees have enjoyed exceptional performances and events, both in the theatre and digitally. Additionally, there are collaborative ventures that may not be conventional for sponsorship. For example, a vocal coach workshop from DNO&B has become a regular fixture in Houthoff’s personal development training programme. We are also proud that our organisations collaborate on community initiatives to amplify our impact. We aspire to see numerous inspiring plans continue to benefit our clients, theatre enthusiasts and our shared colleagues, ultimately contributing to the improvement of our field.” Would you like to collaborate with Dutch National Opera & Ballet as well?
