Probably - a century of entrepreneurship in the Eindhoven region

The great pioneers: Naturally, the book focuses heavily on the giants who put Eindhoven on the map, such as Philips (historical headquarters shown top right on the cover) and DAF Trucks (shown top left).

Broad economic history: Besides these multinationals, the book highlights a century of local entrepreneurship: from the early textile and cigar industry in the early 1900s to the rise of high-tech companies, transport companies (such as Aarts Transport on the cover) and well-known regional names like Vacansoleil.

Historical context: The book is full of archive photos of factories, boards of directors, workers and iconic Eindhoven buildings. It is the definitive work for anyone interested in the industrial history of North Brabant.
