The Joint Institute For Innovation Policy (Jiip)

The Joint Institute for Innovation Policy (JIIP) is a joint venture of four Research and Technology Organisations (RTOs) from four different European countries: TNO (The Netherlands), VTT (Finland), Joanneum Research (Austria) and Tecnalia (Spain). JIIP provides intelligence to support policy-making with a focus on research and innovation policy. Its primary client is the European Commission, in particular DG RTD, DG GROW, DG CNECT and DG MOVE. One of the competitive strengths lies in the interdisciplinary nature of its mother institutes through which we can combine technology, sector and policy expertise to respond to needs and challenges of our clients. A central office located in Brussels coordinates the joint activities and steers the further strategic development of the partnership.
