The city wouldn\u2019t have been what it is at this point in time, if over the years it hadn\u2019t been helped by people from outside. From the rest of Brabant, other parts of the Netherlands, the Belgian border region, but increasingly also from countries far away. If you want proof, just take a walk\u00a0on the Strip at\u00a0the High Tech Campus around lunchtime and you can easily find\u00a0yourself in India.<\/p>\n
The jury, chaired by Alderman Staf Depla (Economic Affairs), has looked at all kinds of criteria, but put special emphasis on importance for society.

<\/a>To honour this group of people, and to give them the spotlights for once, e52 has been\u00a0working – in\u00a0cooperation with the High Tech Campus<\/a>, Brainport Development<\/a>,\u00a0ASML<\/a>, TU\/e<\/a>, Eindhoven365<\/a>, Rabobank\u00a0Eindhoven-Veldhoven<\/a> and\u00a0Holland Expat Center<\/a>\u00a0– to create the\u00a0Expat Top 10. The aim is to arrive at a list of ten people who have meant a lot to the Eindhoven society. This might be because of an invention, an individual performance, an important role in a company, the impact of their startup or simply because they are significant for society. In short, it\u2019s about the people of whom Eindhoven may be proud and grateful. There will be no number one, the whole top-10 consists of\u00a0winners.<\/p>\n![\"Expat](\"https:\/\/archive.ioplus.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Expat-Fair_logo_Eindhoven-1024x374.png\"){kind=logo}
