Who We Are
ECOTEC specialises in economic and social development. We work with major organisations to understand the facts and help meet their challenges.
We are an international provider of research, consulting and management services. Our aim is to deliver real benefit to society through the work we do. For more than twenty years we have worked with clients in the public, private and not for profit sectors. The advantages of working with us are:
Understanding
As a research driven consultancy, we make understanding the client, their brief and the surrounding policy context our main priority. This enables us to deliver the results our clients deserve.
Expertise
Our expertise is very wide: we have specialists working in ten complementary areas. For each project we deliver, our clients benefit from the best team of experts drawn from across the company.
People
ECOTEC is an employee-owned company-people are our most important asset. They come from a range of backgrounds, including academics, practitioners and experienced consultants. This allows us to combine rigorous research and analysis with a clear understanding of implementation; our clients work with people who are on their wavelength.
Local knowledge, international perspective
ECOTEC currently has offices across the UK, in Brussels, Madrid and Ankara, and as part of the ECORYS group we have a presence in a further seven countries. We work locally, nationally and internationally. This experience is complementary: our national and international work is informed by local issues, whilst our local and regional work is framed in the context of the broader policy agenda. If you would like to find out more about us, please contact John Bell, Chairman on 0845 630 8633.
Business Partners
With a team of 200 at ECOTEC and access to a total of 560 as part of the ECORYS group, we have a wide-range of skills and experience available in-house. Our focus is on building the best possible team to meet client requirements, so where specialist knowledge is called for, we will recommend the services of one of our associates as part of our team.
ECORYS Group
ECORYS is a group of European research and consulting companies. Along with ECOTEC, the founder members of ECORYS were two leading companies from the Netherlands - the Netherlands Economic Institute (NEI) and Kolpron.
ECORYS was formed in 2000 in order to offer the broad geographic reach that many of our clients require. We have since expanded through merger and acquisition and can now offer our clients the resources of over 560 consultants situated across eleven countries.
We intend to expand our presence considerably in the future so that we can continue to offer the services that our clients need from us in the global economy. By merging with leading organisations in each country, our international network will always be informed by key local knowledge.
The group currently has offices in Amsterdam, Ankara, Birmingham, Brussels, Budapest, Cardiff, Kyiv, Leeds, London, Madrid, Manchester, Moscow, Newcastle-Under-Lyme, Prague, Rotterdam, Sofia and Warsaw, and representative offices in Manila and Washington DC.
