About the history of this portal
In 2003 a European consortium of universities, research organisations, technology and incubation centres and other technology transfer organisations started to collect the most important facts, techniques, instruments and other information of practical help to the innovation process. The intention was to provide particularly small companies with a readily comprehensible guidebook for this complex subject. The first version, finalized in 2005, was a success. Within a few months more than 1,000 users from all over the world accessed the online guide.
In the following years the guide has been updated, extended and transferred into new languages. It is now available in thirteen European languages.
Beside the updated guide this website has been enlarged and turned into an online community on innovation management allowing users to contribute and share their knowledge.
