1998
Shortly after its establishment, a beautiful building at Wilhelminapark 20 in Utrecht was chosen as headquarters by Dialogic. From this location, the team worked hard on both very specific issues in the field of broadband, ICT, new media, or education, as well as more generic innovation research and policy advice for governments and businesses.
2003
A few years later, Dialogic had ten employees.
2006
Within eight years, Dialogic outgrew its elegant office attire. By the end of 2006, the top two floors of the current building at Hooghiemstraplein were also occupied.
2007
Until this year, Dialogic was recognizable by its orange corporate identity with 'eyes' on the cover. This year, the new corporate identity was introduced, which until today forms the recognizable basis of our end products: 'the little flower,' 'the puzzle piece,' and 'Dialogic-blue' are introduced.

2016
In collaboration with ROC Midden Nederland, Dialogic opens the ICT Lab Utrecht at its DiaLab. Several groups of students will develop cases and proof of concepts there until the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Some participants will even join Dialogic. Additionally, one of these projects gave rise to a start-up in the field of decentralized identity.
The Dialogic website is completely revamped in 2016 after six years of service. The homepage emphasizes the questions Dialogic deals with. In addition, there is a 'timeline' allowing one to closely follow Dialogic through news and Twitter posts.

Sports are a common thread for many colleagues and outings at Dialogic. A running team from Dialogic participates, among others, in the 2018 Singelloop of Utrecht and proves to be the fastest business team on the five-kilometer run. Dialogic also participated in 2017 when the team narrowly missed fourth place in the ten-kilometer run.
2020
In March 2020, the coronavirus forced the Netherlands, and therefore Dialogic, to work from home. The traditional year-end celebration took place twice in 'hubs' at colleagues' homes. Furthermore, alternative activities were organized, such as an online cooking workshop with a real TV chef. Despite these conditions, Dialogic continued to grow and had 30 employees by the end of the year.

At the end of 2023, Dialogic organizes a reception for all friends and family of Dialogicians.
