OVERVIEW
Monteur van het Jaar is an annual competition that celebrates the best professionals in the installation industry. It’s an initiative that honors craftsmanship, passion, and technical expertise – giving well-deserved recognition to the people who keep the Netherlands running.
At Draka, we believe in the power of passion—especially when it comes to electrical engineering. That’s why we’re once again sponsoring Installer of the Year in 2025.
This event is more than just a competition. It’s a celebration of the everyday heroes who keep our world running—electricians. Their work is essential, their skills are diverse, and their days are never boring. From smart homes to sustainable energy systems, the possibilities in electrical engineering are endless.
By supporting this initiative, we want to shine a spotlight on the craftsmanship, creativity, and dedication of these professionals. We hope to inspire the next generation to discover the excitement and opportunities in this field. Because every great journey starts with a spark—and sometimes, that spark is a role model.
Energizing the electricians of tomorrow!
