The reasons why
The region's economic prosperity is considerably enhanced by its excellent transport accessibility. A railway corridor and road system, as well as water and air transport, are available. Recently the region has been receiving strong interest from foreign investors who wish to take advantage of the local industrial zones. A number of important foreign companies have used the investment opportunities offered by the region.
The region is very well-situated with regard to its proximity to the capital and quality transport link in the form of the D11 highway.
Another important factor is the region's position with respect to the significant carmakers TPCA, Kia, and Hyundai.
Educating the masses
The only university in the region is the University of Pardubice, with nearly twenty thousand students. It provides education in five faculties - chemical technology, economics and administration, transportation, restoration and arts and humanities.
The university, in cooperation with the Pardubice regional authorities, created TechnoPark Pardubice oriented toward the automotive industry, chemistry, electronics and information technologies. A business incubator is projected for the park.
The University of Pardubice is an R&D partner of the Research Institute of Organic Syntheses. The outcome of this partnership is a joint laboratory for NMR spectroscopy.
A chemical reaction
