What Netwerk 100 does

Netwerk 100 is a Dutch non-profit regional network program founded in 2008 and operated under NOEL (Netwerk palliatieve zorg regio Nijmegen). It serves vulnerable elderly individuals and people with dementia across the Gelderland-Zuid region, covering the municipalities of Berg en Dal, Beuningen, Druten, Heumen, Nijmegen, West Maas en Waal, and Wijchen. The organization's purpose is to coordinate and improve welfare, care, research, and education related to elderly wellbeing through a collaborative network of approximately 20 partner organizations spanning hospitals (CWZ, Radboudumc), home care providers, welfare organizations, GP networks, pharmacies, and educational institutions (HAN University of Applied Sciences, ROC Nijmegen).

Netwerk 100's core offerings are programs and methodologies rather than commercial software products. These include the TOPICS-MDS national database and TOPICS-Short Form questionnaire for elderly care outcome measurement; the Easycare methodology and its 'Als ik ouder word' (When I grow older) self-research booklet for elderly self-reflection and guided group conversations; the Dementieprogramma (dementia program) with sub-initiatives covering early detection, care trajectory guidance, young-onset dementia (UNICITY project), and dementia-friendly society; the Zorgtrajectbegeleiding Dementie case management service; the Respijtzorg (respite care) information resource; and the 'Ouderen in het onderwijs' program embedding elderly participants in healthcare education.

The business model is subsidy-based: Netwerk 100 receives funding through Dutch government programs including ZonMw and the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS), and originated under the Nationaal Programma Ouderenzorg (NPO), now rebranded 'Beter Oud'. There is no commercial pricing; services are delivered through partner organizations rather than direct sales. Go-to-market is relationship-driven across the regional partner ecosystem, with no traditional sales motion. With approximately 11 employees, the organization functions as a network coordinator and knowledge broker rather than a service-delivery operator or technology vendor.
