We are specialising in innovative LED lighting schemes which are more useful, interactive and dynamic for users, based on a sustainable approach.
Eindhoven received its city rights in 1232. At the end of the nineteenth century, Philips established its lamps factory in Eindhoven, leading to a stream of new workers and at the same time residents of the city. In 1920 the town of Eindhoven was merged with five surrounding villages (now city areas): Gestel, Stratum, Strijp, Tongelre and Woensel. Around 750,000 people live in the Eindhoven region or SRE (Cityregion Eindhoven). By population Eindhoven is the fifth-largest city in the Netherlands. On 1 January 2005 the city had a population of 208,461. On that date 134,000 people were working in Eindhoven. The Eindhoven region is one of the powerhouses of the Dutch economy, and accounts for fourteen per cent of the Gross Domestic Product. Forty per cent of all investments in research & development in the Netherlands are made in the Eindhoven Brainport region. The region holds third place in the European Innovation Scoreboard. Its ambition is to take the No. 1 place in that ranking by 2013.
