North Sea Jazz Festival
BNP Paribas The Netherlands supports since 2011 proudly the North Sea Jazz festival. The Group has confirmed its sponsorship for the editions 2012, 2013 and 2014. The main focus of the partnership is focused on the support of jazz talent and bringing children into contact with jazz music.
