Eindhoven is known as the home of Philips Electronics and is now considered the location of the world's smartest square kilometer due to its high patent density. Key companies in Eindhoven like ASML and NXP rely on deep scientific research to produce advanced semiconductor hardware, and ASML continues to help advance Moore's Law. Eindhoven has a strong presence of technical and creative talent and shares characteristics with only three other cities - Austin, Helsinki, and San Francisco - in balancing technology and design.

1. Eindhoven: a city born and raised like a startup!

2. 11

3. Eindhoven: once the city of Philips Electronics

5. “Manufacturing is
not coming back;
it has been
reinvented.”

6. Now: home of world’s smartest square kilometer

7. World’s smartest square kilometer > patent density!

8. Eindhoven magic formula

10. Deep Tech

Our focus: DEEP tech
Eindhoven’s foundational tech companies
such as ASML and NXP rely on deep
scientific research to manufacture highly
technical precision hardware for the
global semiconductor industry.

11. ASML = (still) upholds the famous Moore’s law

12. “The number of
transistors
and resistors on a
chip
doubles every 24
months”
Gordon Moore - Intel
Moore’s law

13. Time
Speed
Moore’s law is being challenged…

14. STATE-OF-THE-ART
IN CHIP COOLING SOLUTIONS
The challenge is being met!

15. “so if Eindhoven
stops developing…
then Silicon Valley
will slow down too...”

17. Presence of lots of
creative & tech talent
is a huge strategic
advantage for a city

19. 4 cities in the world with same
balance in city with tech + design
- Austin
- Helsinki
- San Francisco
- Eindhoven

20. Dutch Design Week Eindhoven in October (every year)

26. Additive Industries: 3D-printing in metal

28. Smart photonics. The next wave of computing

29. Impact is our main driver.
