Cities
Municipalities and their operating entities.
DEMOThe network
Who is in the network, and on what terms.
Categories are kept separate on purpose. A city, a supplier and a research institute have different relationships with ESCA, different obligations and different rights. A visitor should be able to tell which is which without reading the small print.
- EU Member State
- Candidate country
Coverage
Across the Union and the candidate countries.
The network deliberately spans both. A city in Chisinau and a city in Ghent face different constraints, and the useful comparisons run in both directions.
- Cities and public authorities in EU Member States and in candidate countries.
- Industry members, with no vote and no procurement advantage.
- Strategic and knowledge partners, each published with its scope and its limits.
- Independent experts, engaged for specific work under declared interests.
Categories
Five relationships, deliberately distinct.
There is no single undifferentiated logo wall on this site. What an organisation is, and what its relationship covers, is stated wherever it appears.

DEMOHow the data connects
One taxonomy across everything.
A sector is not a tag on an article. It is a key that retrieves the projects, funding calls, experts, members, reports and events in that sector, because they all use the same vocabulary.
Join the network
Cities, industry and institutions, on separate terms.
City membership and industry membership are different packages with different obligations. They are not variants of one product, and they are not priced against each other.
