As a newly appointed CEO, Anouk Tenten has great ambition for the development of the organization:
“I would like, with NVP teams and global support to build a significant educational enterprise on the solid founding work of the organization and the brand. NVP educational programs should be the standard for any school, university, and corporate environment, justifying their 0-tolerance policy against any form of violence. Our unique brand, the Knotted Gun symbol, will need a larger recognition and understanding throughout our (digital) campaigns, global educational rollout, partnerships, and support. Welcoming the unlimited opportunities, we need to create digital and non-digital consistency, collaboration, and communities.”
