European Robotics Research Network
- European Robotics Research Network
The European Robotics Research Network (EURON) contains about 200 robotics research centres in universities and companies all over Europe. The goal of the network is to stimulate and promote research, education and business around robotics in Europe. It also serves as a central contact point to the European Commission, to prepare roadmaps and funding proposals in the area of robotics. Henrik I. Christensen was the network's founding president, and was instrumental in giving EURON an internationally recognized face. When moving to the United States of America in 2007, the network chose Herman Bruyninckx as his successor.
The funding by the European Commission ended in April 2008, and the network continues as a community-driven organisation.
