The collaboration is called the EnSure Collaborative and is a network of clusters, interconnecting their local security and safety ecosystems, people and infrastructures.

EnSure Collaborative comprises Europe’s leading security and safety clusters, bringing together the continent’s finest skills and competences across science, academia, business and the public sector.
