Knowledge institutes, educational institutes and companies in the region are very internationally oriented. In almost all the major companies, communication takes place in English; there are organisations of which half the employees are foreign nationals.
SME companies are increasingly working more globally and will also start to do this in the field of labour. The Southeast Netherlands has an ideal work and residential climate for foreign nationals. Almost all Dutch people speak fair English and are interested in many different cultures.
After all, the Netherlands is itself a multi-cultural society. Facilities, education, culture and leisure are all internationally focussed – the region offers an international, high quality standard of living.
