Brainport Eindhoven, that is the title ascribed to the Eindhoven Region/Southeast Brabant in national policy memoranda at the end of 2004. A national title with international allure. Not only is Brainport the engine of the Dutch economy, it rates highly at a European level. The continuance of Brainport is important, for the region’s economy as well as that of the Netherlands. And so a Brainport programme has been developed: Brainport Navigator 2013; Beyond Lisbon! The Brainport Navigator defines the route to the target and the ambition: to excel as an international top technology region.
