EURNEX - The European Rail Research Network of Excellence
EURNEX - the European Rail Research Network of Excellence - was created in January 2004 and aims to integrate a fragmented research landscape, promote the railways contribution to sustainable development and improve the competitiveness and economic stability of the European rail sector.
EURNEX members include 63 universities and research centres from 18 EU Member States and Russia, as well as key railway associations, such as UIC, UITP, and UNIFE.
In 2005, the EURNEX network has managed an important step to overcome fragmentation and to achieve sustainability. The ten poles of excellence, each involving the most capable researchers in the particular thematic subjects, have concluded their inauguration phase. Starting with the 2nd Integration Conference held in March 2005, all poles have defined their thematic scope and their strategies for consolidation and further development of scientific excellence. The Network can now look towards the future when, after the EC funding is exhausted at the end of 2008, it is expected to become a self-supporting player on the research market.
This EURNEX web site contains regular updates of progress and information about the objectives of the Network of Excellence, along with a list of participants. EURNEX has also developed a Knowledge Management System which offers, inter alia, comprehensive information about the findings of all important rail-related projects implemented in Europe in recent years, and is planned to be open to the public (on a commercial basis) in 2006.
