1998
Shortly after its establishment, a beautiful building at Wilhelminapark 20 in Utrecht was chosen as headquarters by Dialogic.

Furthermore, a start-up in the decentralized identity field emerges from one of these projects.
After six years of service, Dialogic completely redesigns its website in 2016. The homepage emphasizes the issues Dialogic focuses on. Additionally, there is a 'timeline' feature that allows followers to keep up with Dialogic through news and Twitter updates.

Dialogic also participated in 2017, where they narrowly missed fourth place in the ten-kilometer race.
