INTEROP VLAB.eu
INTEROP-VLab is the "International Virtual Laboratory for Enterprise Interoperability"(INTEROP VLab.eu), officially created as an AISBL (Association Internationale Sans But Lucratif) under the Belgian law. INTEROP-VLab is stemming from the Network of Excellence INTEROP-NoE (Interoperability Research for Networked Enterprise Applications and Software, FP6 508011), coordinated by University Bordeaux 1.
The mission of INTEROP-VLab is to consolidate, develop and durably maintain the new European research community founded by the INTEROP-NoE in its three years and half of intense integrating, joint research and dissemination- activities in the domain of Enterprise Interoperability.
INTEROP-VLab is a virtual, i.e. distributed and coordinated research organization, which is capable of aggregating existing and future research laboratories in close connection with industry, to achieve a number of goals that each single participant organization could not reach.

-
A network of 8 regional poles, bringing together leading academics, research centers, industrial stakeholders, SMEs, from 9 European countries and from China
-
An access route to 300 top specialists in the domain of Enterprise Interoperability (EI)
