NECA Annual Holiday Lunch

Dec. 11, 2025 - University Club, NYC

NECA's annual holiday luncheon will be held on Thursday, December 11, 2025 in New York City. The event is NECA's largest and oldest, linking our organization back to its roots as it was founded in 1977 in New York City itself.

This year's event will return us to the historic and prestigious University Club, a vibrant part of the city's own dedication to education and philanthropy since 1865. The University Club is located at 1 W 54th Street (at Fifth Avenue). Its website is: https://www.universityclubny.org/

The luncheon begins with cocktails at 11 am, and lunch is served at 12:30 pm. Lunch will feature a keynote address from Frank Mitsch, co-founder and President of Fermium Research.
