Brainport Industries Campus is a unique location in the Brainport region, where several companies in the high-tech manufacturing industry and educational institutions are located under one roof. It is the place where the high-tech manufacturing industry meets and where companies learn from each other and work directly with the new generation of technically trained people. In this way, optimal use is made of knowledge and skills to come up with innovative solutions. Brainport Industries Campus offers all possibilities and facilities to enable such innovations based on a climate in which one dares to share and work together. Brainport Industries Campus, therefore, houses the Factory of the Future. This innovation program has as purpose to realize faster and leaner products and production processes and to share (innovation) R&D facilities. In the Factory of the Future, research is carried out within eight different areas of expertise into data-driven innovations aimed at Smart Industry themes, e.g. 3D metal printing, Flexible Manufacturing, High Tech Software Cluster and Digital Factory. This is done in formed Field Labs, in which partners use research and existing new technologies to apply them in practice. The ultimate goal? The realization of an actual Factory of the Future, with which the ecosystem of the high-tech manufacturing industry in the Brainport region and beyond is different from other regions in the world.

Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) believes that universities should not stand by but lead the change when it comes to three major challenges: sustainability, the technological revolution, and the increasing impact of technology. These require universities to be responsive toward multiple topics: student learning needs; industry needs for new knowledge and talent that enable new solutions; regional needs to act as innovation hubs with global impact, and the need of society to benefit from a technological revolution to enhance the welfare of its people. TU/e’s campus is in the center of one of the most powerful technology hubs in the world: Brainport Eindhoven. Globally, it stands out when it comes to collaboration with advanced industries. Together with other institutions, it forms a thriving ecosystem with one common aim: to improve quality of life through sustainable innovations. This is also connected to teaching, for example through TU/e’s Innovation Space, which enables challenge-based learning projects. Examples of cross-disciplinary research institutes are the Institute for Complex Molecular Systems (ICMS), the Eindhoven Artificial Intelligence Systems Institute (EAISI), the Eindhoven Institute for Renewable Energy Systems (EIRES), and the Hendrik Casimir Institute for next-generation photonics and quantum technologies. To enable entrepreneurship, The Gate is furthermore the platform for tech start-ups in the Brainport region in the first stage of their existence. Finally, the example of Eindhoven Engine shows how interdisciplinary teams of people from multiple organizations work together to bridge the gap between scientific findings and commercial development. Visiting TU/e you will learn about how the university engages in meeting its ambitions through close cooperation with the Brainport ecosystem.
