The King’s Commissioner of the Province of Gelderland sounds gong

Clemens Cornielje, the King’s Commissioner of the Province of Gelderland, marks the start of the fourth industrial revolution by sounding the gong at Euronext Amsterdam. He is accompanied by top players of the Gelderland industry, including Euronext listed Nedap, NXP and Remeha.

Clemens Cornielje: “We are on the eve of an industrial renaissance. After the steam engine, the computer and the internet, the digitization is now driving a new industrial revolution. Increasing numbers of businesses are moving their production back from Asia. This creates opportunities for our (manufacturing) industry but we will have to upgrade our production processes to make them smarter and cleaner.”

Gelderland is the fourth industrial region of the Netherlands. More than 200,000 people are employed in the region’s industry and related sectors. The 7,500 industrial businesses generate 15% of the regional income and 10% of employment. By investing in sustainable innovation, entrepreneurs, education institutes and the authorities jointly focus on achieving the third position for the Gelderland industry.
