But that all changed in , when a little lightbulb manufacturing company known as Philips was founded in the small city. During the early 20th century, industry grew exponentially in the city, and with it, the population and importance of Eindhoven.
The tobacco, textile, and later, automobile industries drove the continued growth of Eindhoven throughout the 20th century. During the Second World War, parts of the city were destroyed by air raids. The reconstruction that followed replaced many of the destroyed historical buildings with modern incarnations, including the first high-rises. The city is famous around the world for its industrial design skills which are nurtured at the Design Academy Eindhoven. Links between research and industry are particularly well developed, making Eindhoven an excellent place to bridge the gap between education and employment.
