<p>The East Netherlands has everything needed to develop medical technology so that care becomes better, faster and less labour-intensive. There is a large number of innovative companies in health, food and technology. And it is precisely at the intersection of these three that opportunities and ideas lie.</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><div style="padding:56.25% 0 0 0;position:relative;"><iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/953170809?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write" style="position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;" title="Think East Netherlands | Prevention &amp; MedTech"></iframe></div><script src="https://player.vimeo.com/api/player.js"></script></div><p>New methods of prevention, healthy nutrition and development, and application of medical technology make the East Netherlands a growth area for research, innovation and training of a new generation of professionals. In this area, the geographical location ensures close business and scientific ties with the neighbouring German region.</p><p>Through the connection with the food cluster, there is great potential in East Netherlands to invest in prevention and lifestyle. This combination is unique for the Netherlands and Europe.</p><h2 class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast;"><strong>The East Netherlands Innovation Agenda&nbsp;</strong></span><o:p></o:p></h2><p>In addition, the East Netherlands has a finely-meshed structure of SME companies.
