All relevant English information for foreign knowledge workers, investors, organisations, companies and students is now available at www.brabantsmartsolutions.com.

The portal offers links to interesting websites containing a wealth of information about the Province of Brabant. Bert Pauli, member of the Provincial Executive with responsibility for Economic affairs and Administration, launched the portal last Friday evening during the New Year's meeting of the Province of Brabant.

Until then there was no international portal bringing together all important information. A point of neglect as the international target group is of increasing importance to the Brabant economy, productivity and innovative strength. With this in mind, the Province of Brabant has worked closely together with the Chamber of Commerce for Brabant, Brabantstad and BOM Foreign Investments to develop this portal. Various important players from education, government and business sector in Brabant have since contributed to this initiative.

For many, thinking of Brabant brings to mind hospitality, a Burgundian lifestyle and a pleasant living environment. But Brabant has much more to offer. For the people of Brabant are highly successful in enterprise, innovation and sport. They are renowned for finding smart solutions, a bold approach to business and an instinct for partnership. This unique combination of high tech and high touch make Brabant and its inhabitants so successful. A unique and rewarding symbiosis. That forms the basis of our success and has catapulted Brabant among the very top knowledge and innovation regions in the world.
