Once
started
in the Southampton
(Hampshire) region in South-East
Eng- land and in
the Cherbourg and Le
Havre region or
the Calais /
Normandy
region in France
ContactB2B is now projecting another
triangle right into the
industrial heart of the
Netherlands. This way
also a new connection to the
Eindhoven-Leuven-Aachen
triangle will be
established, the area
that spans so three
countries: Germany, Bel-
gium and the Netherlands and that is
also known as the
European 'silicon
valley' or the DSP
Valley. |

However,
there are also a lot of
other industries
and businesses to
meet in the Eindhoven
region.

Eindhoven
is apart from being an excellent place
for doing business either in the
European home market or on an
international scale also a fine city to
visit or to stay. There are also always
many opportunities for participating in
cultural, sportive or entertaining
events. |

|
Some
random hints to evoke an understanding
of the dynamics of the city could be the
famous Van
Abbe Museum (great Modern Art
collection) and the Design
Academy, the TU/e
- Eindhoven University of Technology, PSV
(the number 1 football club in the
Netherlands) or the Tongelreep
(the National Swimming Center), just to
mention a few. |
