MENON Network EEIG

The MENON Network had been a European research and innovation network, having contributed in the period from 1999 till 2014, some 15 years, to foster and enhance innovation processes mainly in the areas of education and lifelong learning, human capital development and the labour markets in Europe, international S&T cooperation, knowledge society and social inclusion. We have done so by facilitating the understanding of societal change processes, by engaging stakeholders in decision-making processes, and by offering evidence-based recommendations for policy and practice, at local, national, EU and international level.

The MENON Network had been representing a rather unique integration of multidisciplinary expertise and “innovative thinking”, drawing on a comprehensive and diverse knowledge base combining research methods and their application, network development and implementation, policy analysis and valorisation of innovative practices.

The activities of the MENON Network EEIG have since January 2015 been transferred to the member organizations and being followed by the MENON Network GR Ltd, a research and analysis entity wholly owned by the EEIG (contact menon@menon.org). MENON Network GR is also sharing mission and know-how with Mind2Innovate (www.mind2innovate.org), another Athens based company specializing in providing consulting to European and country/regional stakeholders for evidence-based policy making and impact assessment.
