Eindhoven. A city of innovation, creativity and design but above all a city of the future. It is the cradle of Dutch innovation, which is tangible not only in the vibrant city centre, but also (far) beyond.

The industrial creative incubator Strijp-S and the High Tech Campus, founded by Philips, provide a fresh new perspective on the world. Culture and design beautifully merge at the Van Abbemuseum and Kazerne. The Van Abbemuseum is one of Europe’s leading museums of modern and contemporary art, whereas Kazerne provides a platform to artists while also housing several restaurants and a hotel.
Enjoying the taste of Eindhoven
Eindhoven proves that the Netherlands has long since grown beyond its reputation as a country of windmills, tulips and canals. The city is a trendsetter in innovation and technology but doesn’t ignore the good things in life. PHOOD is a great example of this. It is the very first ‘aquaponic farm-restaurant’. If you want to feel like you’re dining in a restaurant of the future, why not visit brasserie Next located at Evoluon museum. And with large-scale events such as GLOW and the Step in The Arena graffiti festival, you’ll never be bored in Eindhoven.

Stroll through Volta Galvani, for example, a vibrant area with colourful and stylish facades reminiscent of the architecture of southern Spain and North-Africa. If you don’t feel like walking, you could rent a fatbike and soak up the real urban vibe. Then go shopping at the Woensel Westside Stores where local entrepreneurs get the opportunity to start small-scale businesses.
