This deposit contains the final presentation slides from the first NES Col-Lab Retreat, held in August 2025 in Schoorl, the Netherlands. The retreat brought together nearly 30 participants from diverse institutions, including researchers, data stewards, software engineers, and support staff. Many participants combined multiple roles, reflecting the reality of the NES domain. The group represented a broad mix of experience—from newcomers eager to explore available resources to seasoned professionals sharing lessons learned and insights from years in the field. While most attendees were based in Dutch research institutes, guests from Germany enriched the discussions with valuable international perspectives. Over three days, participants self-organised into working groups that tackled a range of pressing topics, including: Software training – drafting a roadmap for a PhD software learning journey Metadata and interoperability – with a focus on Electronic Lab Notebooks AI-assisted coding – identifying best practices for this timely challenge Communication and messaging – developing strategies to better engage NES researchers and bridge the gap with support staff Strategic foresight – using scenarios to anticipate the evolving support needs of NES disciplines The slides collected here are snapshots of the teamwork, documenting the ideas, proposals, and directions that emerged during the retreat. They serve as a record of the collaborative efforts and as inspiration for further development within the TDCC-NES community and beyond.
