Panteia

What Panteia does

Panteia B.V. is a Dutch research and advisory bureau headquartered in Zoetermeer, Netherlands, that provides policy research and evaluations, data and analytics, market research, professional secondment, and consultancy services. Operations trace back to 1930 and the current legal entity was formed in 2010 through the consolidation of multiple Dutch research institutes (NEA, EIM, Research voor Beleid, IPM, IOO, Stratus, Consult); today the firm operates as part of the Panmuc Group alongside sister entities MuConsult (passenger mobility policy, joined 2020) and Revnext (energy transition and cybersecurity, joined 2023), with Nimbus as shareholder since 2016.

The company's work spans two knowledge domains: Transport & Mobility and Society & Economy (labor market, health, participation, sustainable growth). Underlying capabilities include a proprietary Data Eco System, access to Statistics Netherlands (CBS) microdata, and in-house forecasting models such as NEAC (European freight transport) and PRISMA (labor market forecasting), supported by dashboards, APIs, and machine-learning prediction pipelines. Revenue is generated primarily through project-based professional services contracts with public-sector and institutional clients. Named customers include the European Commission, World Bank, Asian Development Bank, Dutch ministries (Social Affairs, Infrastructure), municipalities, De Nederlandsche Bank, and industry associations across multiple sectors; the firm reports activity in more than 50 countries supported by joint ventures in Bulgaria, China, Turkey, and Kazakhstan. Recent strategic emphasis is on expanding the data/analytics platform, pursuing high-tier sustainability credentials (CO2 Performance Ladder Level 5 in 2024), and broadening service lines into adjacent areas such as automated mobility and AI-policy research.
