It tracks innovation policy developments in all EU Member States, plus Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Iceland, Israel, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic and Slovenia. The Trend Chart website provides access to the following services and publications a database of policy measures across Europe; a "who is who?" of agencies and government departments involved in innovation; a series of six-monthly country reports for all countries covered; a series of six-monthly trend reports covered on each of the four main themes; a number of benchmarking reports; the European Innovation Scoreboard and other statistical reports; a news service and thematic papers; the annual reports of the Trend Chart.The ZEW contributes as German national correspondent to the network.
