The new year is here, and we look back with pride on an impressive 2024. It was a year full of innovation, growth, and sustainable milestones for neco. At the same time, we're starting 2025 with clear goals and full of energy – ready to further advance digital networking and celebrate new successes together with you.

1. Strong Community Growth: Over 5,000 New Users

In 2024, over 5,000 new users chose neco, growing our community to a proud 18,000 users. This growth shows: Digital networking is not just a trend, but a necessity in an increasingly connected world.

2. Over 13,000 App Installations Worldwide

With more than 13,000 installations on iOS and Android, neco once again proved in 2024 that it works smoothly and user-friendly on all platforms.

3. 750 New Companies Trust neco

This year, 750 more companies decided to switch from paper to digital business cards. This makes neco not just a tool for individuals, but also an indispensable tool for companies that want to work more sustainably and efficiently.

4. 35,000 Shared Business Cards

In 2024, neco digital business cards were shared around 35,000 times. This sends a clear signal for sustainability: no wasted paper cards, but smart exchange in the digital world.

Did you know that approximately 10 billion business cards are produced worldwide each year, and 80% of them are thrown away within a week? With neco, we're helping to reduce this resource consumption.

5. Focus on Sustainability

Thanks to neco, our users are making an important contribution to reducing CO2 emissions. Just 500 paper business cards cause about 5.625 kilograms of CO2 per year.

Through 35,000 digitally shared business cards, we saved around 393 kilograms of CO2 together in 2024 – equivalent to the emissions of a car over approximately 2,500 kilometers! A strong sign of how small, conscious decisions can make a big difference.

Innovation and user-friendliness are at the heart of what we do. In 2024, we introduced over 20 new features – including new high-end designs, layouts, Apple Wallet integration, synchronizations, and much more.

Additionally, this year we implemented more than 100 improvements and bug fixes to make the app even smoother and more efficient. Our goal is to provide you with a reliable and intuitive platform.

7. More Reviews & Feedback

The importance of user feedback is reflected in the over 400 new App Store reviews. Every review counts because it helps us further improve the app. Your feedback is the engine for innovation and user-friendliness.

8. Looking to the Future: What's Next?

2024 was a year of highlights, but we're not resting on our laurels. The future holds exciting plans, including more innovative features and optimizations that will make the digital exchange of business cards even simpler and more effective.
