IE Network - Innovation Enterprise Network: Career re-ignition for high skilled/professionals. Are you a high skilled/professional, looking for employment, information on business start up, training and networking opportunities? Then join us at http://www.ienetwork.ie or contact jim.nolan@ienetwork.ie for more information. The Innovation Enterprise Network was established in November 2010 to provide a support network for the high skilled professional who has become unemployed. The IE Network provides seminars, workshops & training for its members who wish to upskill or more importantly those who are looking to set up their own business. The IE Network is a vital resource to its members, because it creates an environment where like minded members can get together, network, brainstorm and help each other in their quest to set up their own business or regain access to the workplace. We also work to encourage the ethos of “Communities of Practice” in areas such as energy, water, transport etc.

ESPON Territorial Performance Monitoring (TPM) Project: Territorial development at the regional level is becoming increasingly important for effectively addressing local and regional transformations as well as challenges at the European level. However, knowledge on the specific regional consequences of macro-challenges is limited and appropriate regional planning tools are rare. The main objective of this ESPON TPM project is to develop tools in order to support regions in their attempts to monitor their performance in addressing the main European challenges identified by previous ESPON projects (demography, energy supply, climate change and globalisation) in their regional policies. A full report is currently in draft format and will be available in the first quarter of 2012. For a project description Click Here.
