Briefly about the background of InnoNEM
Nordeco has developed projects with research institutions and innovation network InViO for years.
In February 2013, when the Dansih Research and Innovation Council called for applications for innovation networks, we became aware that there was no innovation network for rural development, social innovation and climate and environmental issues.
Therefore, we contacted the Centre for Rural Research and the Common Council for Rural Districts to see if they would support the idea of joining forces and create the conditions for an application. It was well received and led to this initiative.
