ECORYS is an international group of companies specialising in economic and social development. We work with clients in the public, private and not-for-profit sectors and apply our expertise to improve the economic and social conditions of:

• The countries in which we live and have our offices
• The European Union and its neighbouring states
• Developing countries, especially for poverty alleviation

Our aim is to deliver real benefit to society through the work we do. We believe that to develop good policy it is important to understand how to deliver it; and in order to deliver well you must understand the policy you serve. That's why we offer a full range of services: research and policy advice, institutional and capacity development, communication and financing, programme management and realisation, and monitoring and evaluation.

We work at international, national, regional and local levels. Our work for national and international clients is all the more sound because we understand the variety of local circumstances in which it has to apply. Our work at regional and local level benefits from our understanding of the national and international context.

ECORYS people are dedicated experts from academia, practice and consultancy. We draw upon and share the best practice both within the ECORYS Group and with academic and other partners internationally to deliver work of the highest quality.
