Partners
Partnerships – Building cyber resilience together
The .BQ Cybersecurity Convention believes in the power of collaboration.
To sustainably strengthen the cyber resilience of the Caribbean Netherlands, we collaborate with public and private organizations based on equality, shared ownership, and a fair distribution of effort and benefits, including knowledge sharing, awareness raising, network expansion, strengthening trust, and collaboration.
Our partners co-design the program and actively contribute to its content, network, and impact. We build long-term relationships centered on mutual trust, transparency, and social responsibility.

Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations
In an increasingly digital world, collaboration between governments and public-private organizations is essential for a resilient society and a strong economy. Due to increasing digitalization, improving cybersecurity and raising awareness are becoming increasingly important: digital vulnerabilities and threats are commonplace.
We are therefore strengthening the Netherlands' digital resilience by continuously improving the stability and effectiveness of our cybersecurity system. In crisis situations, we ensure rapid recovery to prevent long-term damage. Exercises play a crucial role in this. Within the Government-wide Cyber Program, we collaborate with government bodies and public-private organizations to raise awareness among administrators, managers, and employees about digital threats and potential risks. Practicing realistic scenarios and sharing knowledge contribute to resilience. Since this year, the collaboration within this network has been expanded to include the Caribbean part of the Kingdom. We cannot achieve digital resilience alone, but together.
National Cyber Security Center
As experts, we work towards a digitally secure Kingdom. The digital infrastructure of organizations is vital: for payment transactions, clean water from the tap, and keeping feet dry. Collaboration is essential for organizations to stand strong against cyber threats. Together, we are stronger, more resilient, and able to help others become more resilient.
The Cyber Resilience Network (CWN) brings together public and private organizations. Here, we collaborate on the cyber resilience of our own organizations and contribute to the cyber resilience of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. Because cyber resilience isn't something you achieve alone.
