As an independent non for profit think tank, DEN works for a sustainable future by assessing and maximising the impact of innovative processes. Dissemination, networking and engagement activities support this effort. DEN has developed studies, strategies and policy recommendations on how (co)-design can be used to ensure the immediate, medium- and long term impacts of research and innovation activities and how to support the success of start-ups, SMEs as well as citizen-led initiatives.

DEN collaborates with private and public organisations and actively participates in research and innovation projects, also funded by the European Commission. Our focus is on projects that address key societal issues, such as disinformation and fake news, climate change, improving the quality of life for migrants and refugees, or innovative solutions for health.
