Still to be incorporated:
The current building-up of the High Tech Campus Eindhoven, on the site of the Philips Research center (NatLab). It is owned still by Philips, but the philosophy of "open innovation" means that other companies are being invited to come and share the Philips labs facilities (cleanroom etc). [1] (link to HTCE website). Should be coherently included at some point because this is an important technological focus in The Netherlands.
