ECORYS has been accredited the status of "Knowledge Partner" to the recently created Urban Investment Network (UIN). The aim of the UIN is to meet the challenge of increasing investment needs in Europe's cities. The UIN has been established by the Urban Land Institute (ULI), a non-profit research and education organisation representing more than 33,000 private and public actors world wide, in the fields of land use and real estate. Its founding members include the cities of Barcelona, Amsterdam and Edinburgh, as well as ING Real Estate, ECE Projektmanagement, Euro Hypo and Allianz. Other "Knowledge Partners" are the OECD and the European Investment Bank.

This new partnership will bring together public institutions, such as city government leaders but also private investors and developers, with the aim of improving private-public cooperation and between cities to achieve successful economic recovery, dynamic cities, and a more sustainable future.
