Its inhabitants are multilingual, communicative, and familiar with the business customs of their neighbours – and they view their border location as an opportunity: “We combine the best of three worlds: Dutch trading spirit and pragmatism, German standards of quality and reliability, and Franco-Belgian lifestyle,” says LIOF, the Limburg Investment and Business Promotion Corporation.
