The European Commission is the executive body of the European Union. It is one of the three main institutions governing the European Union. The principal investigators on the project are WIK-Consult in Germany and RAND Europe in Cambridge, England. Other members of the research team include the Centre de Recherche en Informatique et Droit at the Universite de Namur in Belgium and GLOCOM in Japan.
