European Copper Institute

The European Copper Institute - the driving force behind the Leonardo ENERGY initiative -  is a joint venture between the world's mining companies, represented by the International Copper Association, and the European copper industry. Its mission is to promote copper's benefits to modern society across Europe, through its Brussels office and a network of eleven Copper Development Associations.

In fulfilling its mission, ECI manages a broad range of information and education activities. Dissemination to target audiences is carried out through the national Copper Development Associations located in the Benelux, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Poland, Russia, Scandinavia, Spain and the UK.
