Program Expo Real
Are you visiting Expo Real this year? Then we would like to meet you at our stand or during one of our meetings and events, such as the substantive presentations on Brightlands and Limburg Centraal and the networking drinks.
The program is not final at this stage. We expect to inform you further about the program and how to register via this webpage in August.
Brightlands
Brightlands is a dynamic and innovative ecosystem in Limburg, where companies, knowledge institutions and startups collaborate on ground-breaking technologies and sustainable solutions. It is a place where science and business meet and where ideas are transformed into specific projects. Always with an eye for what has social value and can also be commercially interesting.
The areas of expertise within Brightlands are:
- Healthy and sustainable food, future farming and biocircular economy (Brightlands Campus Greenport Venlo)
- Circular materials, biomedical innovations and sustainable processes (Brightlands Chemelot Campus in Sittard-Geleen)
- Valorization and financing (Brightlands Maastricht Health Campus)
- Artificial intelligence, data science and smart digital services (Brightlands Smart Services Campus in Heerlen)

Limburg Centraal
Limburg Centraal includes the development of large-scale housing locations, led by the Province of Limburg and the municipalities of Heerlen, Maastricht, Roermond, Sittard-Geleen, Weert and Venlo. These are locations that are easily accessible by public transport and are intended for housing seekers from Limburg and beyond.
Within a 1.5-kilometer circle (15-minute walk) near the six train stations in the aforementioned cities, more than 30,000 housing units can be built by 2040. This will give a boost not only to housing construction, but also to the economic development of Limburg and the quality of life in its immediate surroundings. Limburg offers room for growth, which provides opportunities for Limburg cities in terms of economy, facilities and livability.

But Limburg Centraal is about more than housing. It shows how we want to shape our urbanization in a sustainable way: integrated; living, working and life and a Limburg that is well connected to its surroundings. Here, the presence of the Brightlands campuses is an important stimulus for the attractiveness of the Province.
