Centre for R&D monitoring. (ECOOM)

The mission of the Centre for R&D Monitoring (ECOOM) is to develop and consolidate a consistent and performing system of R&D and Innovation (RD&I) indicators which provides the Flemish Governement with actual and relevant statistic data for mapping and monitoring the RD&I efforts in the Flemish region. At the same time ECOOM develops a portfolio of relevant scientific research activities to support this mission. Therefore, ECOOM (1) has a series of targeted, long term task packages to map, measure and analyze the Flemish R&D and innovation potential; (2) ensures that a data management infrastructure is available to the Flemish Government containing bibliometric and technometric data and data on innovation and PhDs; (3) provides qualified staffing; (4) builds the necessary and appropriate IT-infrastructure and (5) is able to conduct ad-hoc task or projects at request of the Flemish Government. ECOOM acts as an inter-association center.
