Events with a spark of science

Let science inspire your event. Why not welcome your guests with a mysterious smoking cocktail? Incorporate a stimulating break into your official programme with a technical challenge such as the Light Paths workshop. Your guests will create a chain reaction of light using lenses, prisms and mirrors.

Alternatively, you can round off your event with a show, workshop or theatre performance. Take 'Chain Reactions', for example, a show all about kinetic energy, featuring moving office chairs, popping balloons and falling bricks. Or discover the secrets of our interactive globe – a NEMO exclusive in the Netherlands.

Customer satisfaction

NEMO feels that it is vital to obtain client approval ratings for our venues and the services we provide. Thus, after each event, we send questionnaires to the organizers involved. 

In 2016, clients awarded an average rating of 8.3 (out of 10) for events staged in NEMO. Customer-friendliness and responsiveness to client’s wishes were rated very highly. Most event organizers selected NEMO either because of the building’s striking architecture, the atmosphere or because the museum’s exhibits were in keeping with their programme. NEMO plans to use the results of this survey to improve its services still further.
