About the Topic

How do you, as a Corporate Affairs professional, handle increasing reputation risks, crisis situations, media relations, and social polarization and what role does Corporate Affairs play in this?

To explore these topics in depth and share his experiences, Martijn will host us on November 18 at the NXP Semiconductors headquarters at the High Tech Campus. Following a tour of the NXP experience center, we will engage in a discussion within a small-scale and confidential setting. Using thought-provoking statements, we will discuss reputation and crisis communication, the influence of social developments, and the differences in communication and media relations between the Netherlands and the US. This interactive session will focus on experiences, dilemmas, and diverse perspectives. We would like to invite you to participate!
