NEOS reach 4,000-member mark

Participation in the government seems to be paying off for NEOS, at least in terms of membership numbers. For the first time, they have surpassed the 4,000 mark, as the party announced in a press release on Thursday. The Pink Party has recorded more than a third increase since the beginning of the year alone.

NEOS count over 4,000 members for the first time

Secretary General Douglas Hoyos sees this as a confirmation of the path taken in recent years and especially the months of government participation: "NEOS were founded almost 13 years ago by around 40 people because they wanted to advance reforms in education, reduce bureaucracy, and bring more honesty and transparency into politics - today we are 4,000 and we continue to grow."

According to Hoyos, no other party allows its members to have as much say as the Pink Party - whether in joint program development, creating electoral lists, or deciding on coalition participation.

Membership campaign in the coming months

NEOS also want to continue growing as a party in the coming months, Hoyos emphasized. They are campaigning for new members. An initial video can already be found on the Pink Party's social media channels. "The goal is to show: It is fun and enjoyable to be a member of NEOS and to actively participate."
