Defenced has been named the #3 Best Workplace for Women 2026

Proud! Incredibly proud! Defenced has officially been named #3 on the Best Workplaces for Women 2026 list in the Small Businesses category by Great Place To Work® Netherlands.

In a sector where diversity is still far from a given, we consciously choose a different path. Not to make a statement, but out of a deep conviction. We firmly believe that the best teams are created when everyone is given the exact same space to grow, lead, and make an impact.

"Thank you to our entire team! Every day, you work together to build a culture of trust and equality within Defenced. This milestone belongs to all of us."

The Best Workplaces for Women list is compiled annually based on independent research by Great Place To Work® Netherlands. It specifically looks at the experiences of female employees within the organization regarding equal opportunities, representation, and a supportive work culture. Ranking in the top 3 in the Netherlands strengthens our mission to continue building a workplace where talent knows no gender.

Here’s to taking many more great steps together!
