Smart Mobility Solutions IAA Frankfurt 2017 12-17 September 2017 Smart & Green mobility solutions from the Netherlands pave the way for clean, smart & safe mobility! The Netherlands' centuries-old tradition of creativity, entrepreneurship, openness and willingness to collaborate has proven to be the ideal breeding ground for high-tech key enabling technology solutions for smart mobility, energy savings and green transport. The Netherlands has an ecosystem with world class suppliers, knowledge institutes and service providers. From design, architecture, the production of cars and the equipment required to make them, through to innovative new technologies and smart mobility solutions. Well known multinationals are DAF Trucks, Tata Steel, VDL, NXP Semiconductors, TomTom, Akzo-Nobel, DSM, Philips, Inalfa Roof Systems etc. But there are also a large number of SMEs that actively design, test, and simulate automotive solutions. We are strong in smart & green mobility solutions and technologies, such as Electric Vehicle Technology, Energy Saving Technologies and Connected and Cooperative Driving. With over 90,000 EVs charged every day, the Netherlands runs one of the world’s largest and most advanced charging infrastructures. The Netherlands is an international testing ground for large scale market introduction of electric mobility. Heavy Duty Electric Vehicles (With battery only and with fuel cells) are to be introduced very soon. Also The Netherlands has a full coverage of charging stations and will install several hydrogen fuelling stations in the coming years. The highly developed and dense traffic network in the Netherlands, perfect traffic management and the 4G penetration rate makes the Netherlands ideally suited for developing, testing and implementing Smart Mobility applications. - 2 - www.hollandhightech.nl @hollandhightech The demand for green mobility solutions and thus lighter structures is continuously increasing. The Netherlands is strong in light weight components and materials, bio based materials and is Europe’s number one in recyclability by re-use, recycling thermoplastic composites and thermoset polymers and remanufacturing. The whole chain (infrastructure) has been put in place for smart materials. Automotive Industrial companies and knowledge institutes have strong expertise and specialization in sustainable and smart manufacturing. Public-private partnership is stimulated with schools and knowledge institutes to provide the highest level of education. We are proud to contribute to solutions for the global challenge of mobility. The Netherlands is known for its pragmatic mentality, its smart application of technologies, its partnerships between industry, research institutes and government, and its flat organization structure. It’s a great place to live and work. Our sector organisations RAI & AutomotiveNL connect all Dutch knowledge institutes and companies in the full value chain, thus enabling innovative, fast and flexible automotive solutions and products.

  • The New DAF Range the Reflection of Quality
    The new DAF Range The reflection of quality Quality right down the line Quality in every detail: that’s what makes the difference between a DAF and every other truck. From the steel front bumper to the virtually unbreakable Lexan headlamp covers, and the stylish cab interior to the durable driveline, a DAF truck is built to perform. And it’s built by people who have a passion for trucks. Along with Peterbilt and Kenworth - two of the top American truck brands - DAF Trucks is a PACCAR company. A company with a passion for quality, a strong customer focus and the utmost respect for the driver. driven by quality 3 A passion for trucks The right vehicle for the job There’s a DAF for every task. Meeting tight schedules through narrow streets in city distribution. Accelerating to an emergency call-out. Safely delivering 25-tonnes of bricks to a building site. Comfortably moving a refrigerated trailer across Europe. DAF trucks are developed for maximum returns per kilometre. And uncompromised driver comfort. Three vehicle concepts There’s the LF for intensive distribution work. The CF for the most varied transport operations. And the prestigious XF for long-distance transport. Three vehicle concepts, one philosophy: Quality right down the line. From six to fifty tonnes and more, durable and reliable, optimized for operational efficiency. A solid foundation for success Continuity through reliability Trucks must keep moving. Travelling hundreds of thousands of kilometres, working day after day with confidence, comfort, safety and efficiency. You can rely on a DAF just as you can rely on the organization behind it.

Thomas Voncken 2 Preface With completion of the research project presented in this master thesis the master program "Economic Geography" at the Radboud University is coming to an end. Meanwhile, it is some time since I started writing this thesis. During the writing of this thesis, I have followed an internship at the SRE (Samenwerkingsverband Regio Eindhoven) for eight months. The role of public entities on cluster development had caught my interest, so I was very pleased that I was received by the SRE with open arms, where I was immersed among several tasks of the Economic Affairs department. This experience helped me to develop this interest into a subject for the thesis. Partly due to the freedom and in addition the guidance I was given at the SRE, I could focus on doing my research. Because of this internship, I was able to worK with a bulK of information on the spatial organization of innovation networks in the region Eindhoven.
