From within the Netjes Group, the Netjes-Specht branch founds a new organisation with the family capital in 2023, in memory of Dirk Netjes senior: N&W Capital. The name refers to the two families, Neat and Woodpecker. N&W Capital broadens its horizon: a different view of real estate, and opportunities across markets.
