Brainport Industries Campus (BIC) is a development project for an industrial park in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. Phase one (BIC 1) has been completed, encompassing 105,000 square meters of existing buildings, surrounding public space, and parking. The site is home to several high-tech manufacturing companies and educational institutions. Expansion plans are currently underway, with the newly expanded BIC 2 campus expected to double the size of BIC 1, reaching 300,000 square meters. More than 40 pioneering companies are already established on the campus. BIC is the largest campus expansion in the Netherlands for years to come.
Notably, ASML, the Dutch EUV lithography equipment giant, is considering expanding to the northern part of the BIC 2 campus. In 2024, ASML announced plans to establish a subsidiary in the BIC Industrial Park by 2030, accommodating thousands of employees. The Brainport Industries Campus development company stated that it aims to provide startup facilities, co-innovation spaces and built to suit manufacturing space for high-tech companies.
In partnership with Invest Holland and the Brabant Development Agency (BOM), the park will offer Taiwanese companies the option of establishing regional business units or research centers in the Netherlands through support services provided by the industrial park.
The campus aims to attract leading companies in cutting-edge technology fields, including semiconductor related technologies, photonics, quantum and additive manufacturing. BIC and Invest Holland jointly unveiled this plan at Semicon Taiwan 2025, offering the access to advanced facilities, a strong open innovation ecosystems and encouraging Taiwan's high-tech industries participating in this collaboration opportunity.
