The fifth largest industrial city of the Netherlands Eindhoven is a highly innovative city, and also one of the four major high-tech cluster regions in Europe. It is entitled as “Europe Silicon Valley” as it has superior industrial clusters, like chip design and semi-conductor equipment, photoelectricity integration and LIFI, high-end medical instruments and wearable devices, new energy automobiles and smart IoV, etc.

Eindhoven with its per capita patent ranking first in the world is worthy of the title “intelligent city”.

At the same time, because of high fusion of geographical locations, humanistic concepts, etc., the Netherlands has a long history of exchange and cooperation with the five northern Europe countries, especially in the education and science & technology fields.
