From TEN-T EA to INEA
•
From 1 January 2014 – INEA replaced TEN-T EA (the Trans-European
Transport Network Executive Agency)
•
TEN-T EA's excellent reputation and performance resulted in INEA being
given the largest budget of all EAs for the financial period 2014-2020
•
Experience gained by TEN-T EA laid a solid foundation for INEA's
programme implementation and project management
•
INEA started with TEN-T EA's 100 staff - will reach 318 staff managing
2100+ projects by 2020 with a budget of €37 billion
•
Currently 145 staff in a multinational team of 25 nationalities
