Objectives and Partners

The regional cooperation aims first and foremost at recruiting and retaining talent. The project thus strives to boost the region’s competitive advantage on an international level and to promote equal opportunities and family-friendly practices in the research and economic hub Ruhr.

To this end, more than 20 research, economic and administrative institutions in the region have joined forces. The Network is coordinated by the Ruhr Regional Association (RVR) and was developed by the Mercator Research Center Ruhr (MERCUR).
