Research & Development

The choice of a location for R&D operation in Europe is based on several location factors, among which: innovative capability, skills and talent, infrastructure, business environment and costs. Choosing a location can be a complex undertaking.

Innovation is key. In the Netherlands we have a close link between world-class universities and many industries. Further more, supportive government authorities, venture capital, dynamic and hospitable business environment will ensure companies have the knowledge and resources to turn innovation into bottom-line results.

The Netherlands has one of the world’s most educated populations with a very strong interest in science: 32% of students pursuing higher education participate in science programmes. There are over 60,000 researchers in Dutch companies, universities and research institutes. The internationally renowned educational institutes are well developed and are highly influential in the world.

Tech savvy venture capitalists joint hands with various government-sponsored funding initiatives to fund research efforts. These initiatives offer tax breaks, interest free loans and subsidies for high-tech equipment, personnel and facilities that contribute to innovative R&D.

SenterNovem, a major government agency for private sector research is set on a mission to implement government support programs designed to support entrepreneurs in technology, energy and the environment.
