Introducing the
Network of National ITS Associations!!

The ERTICO - ITS Europe hosted Network of National ITS Associations is a grouping of national ITS interests formed in order to ensure that ITS knowledge and information is transmitted to all actors at the local and national level - such as small and medium sized companies - and support ITS promotion from the ground up. It was officially launched 7 October 2004 in London.

The objectives of the Network are to:

• Exchange information and agree on the appropriate content of future regional, national and EU programmes
• Exploit synergies in current regional, national and EU projects
• Act as a channel for local SME participation in EU programmes
• Cooperate to establish an appropriate European ITS Policy framework
• Collaborate on ITS training

The Network currently consists of 30 member organisations. Chairmanship of the Network rotates between members, and it is currently chaired by Mr Nico Anten of Connekt / ITS Netherlands. The Network Secretariat is at ERTICO - ITS Europe.
