The regional network of eris@ - The European Regional Information Society Association – is supporting processes of the digital inclusion within its 28 European member regions using the tools of the Information Society.

From the founding experiences of the Inter-Regional Information Society Initiative (IRISI) in 1995 and the Regional Information Society Initiative (RISI) in 1997, eris@ progressively emerged and developed from 1998 till today.

Thus, we can look back to a ten year’s history of experiences !

Strongly aware of the specific challenges and resources of the European regions, eris@ has developed an appropriate framework for strategic coordination and planning to address the issue of enhancing Information Society at local level.

Through its information, dissemination and research activities, eris@ achieved to gather expertise and experience, from both the academic and policy making world, including cooperation with the private sector.

Many programme developments, position papers and networking events can testify this permanent concern from answering regional issues. More about eris@’s projects, you can find here.

''eris@ believes that inter-regional cooperation and the continuous exchange of experiences are inevitable to successfully reach a fully inclusive digital society. Through eris@’s fruitful environment build upon its member regions from all over Europe, one corporate member, and an efficient executive Board of Directors.''
