In recognition of this, alderman Bas van der Pol presented a miniature social sofa during the visit to Lan on 10 June. “We can be sincerely proud of a company like Lan. They are the paragon of innovative manufacturing industry and a worldwide established name that has remained loyal to Tilburg despite an enormous growth spurt. The strength of entrepreneurship in Tilburg lies in the continued development and application of new technologies. Lan also demonstrates this: they work closely with educational institutions to become better, more innovative and more sustainable.”
