High praise for Nereus consortium from European Commission
In March 2010 the Final Review by the EC of the NEEO project and the resulting service Economists Online took place. There were many compliments for the Nereus consortium which led the project. For excerpts of the review report, we would like to refer you to the text below.
Quotes from the Final Review Report
This is an excellent consortium working very well together in an efficient manner and with good use of resources providing value for the money that has been invested, in particular on the aggregation of the content, metadata enrichment and so on. There has been effective dissemination work through the website and other events and activities. Promotion and dissemination efforts have resulted in additional partners joining the consortium, thereby increasing impact. The deliverables are clear and well written.
The project is to be commended for not only completing the work planned but going beyond the requirements of the Description of Work and also providing valuable analyses of issues encountered and lessons learned of value to other projects.
There appears to be excellent synergy and collaboration between the partners. They have a clear view of what the issues are and have cooperated well in the work undertaken.
A promising sustainability plan has been developed and appears to be progressing well, with enough interested parties willing to pay an annual subscription to cover running costs.
Université Nice Sophia Antipolis
Université Nice Sophia Antipolis in Nice has now joined the Nereus network. Their repository will soon be available via Economists Online.
