What diaNEOsis does

diaNEOsis (legal name: diaNEOsis - Research and Policy Institute) is an independent, non-profit research organization founded in February 2016 and headquartered in Athens, Greece. It conducts and publishes data-driven studies on Greek economic, social, political, and public-administration issues, covering verticals such as economy and development, social policy, public administration, innovation, health, entrepreneurship, and — most recently — artificial intelligence policy and digital disinformation. Its outputs are research publications, policy papers, articles, podcasts, an annual public-opinion survey series ('What Greeks Believe'), and large-venue public events; the organization does not sell a commercial software product, platform, or SaaS offering.

diaNEOsis serves three primary user segments: Greek government policymakers seeking evidence-based reform proposals, academic researchers who cite and collaborate on its work, and the broader Greek public engaging through free digital content, newsletters, and events. Its technology footprint is content-centric: a WordPress-based website (dianeosis.org) hosting research, articles, events, data, indicators, podcasts, and a blog, complemented by a print/digital publication shop. The 'core technology' is positioned as a research and policy analysis platform producing data-driven studies rather than a software product.

As a non-profit, diaNEOsis's revenue mechanics are not publicly disclosed. The organization earns modest, non-material revenue from publication sales through its online shop, with the balance presumed to come from grants, project funding, and institutional partnerships. Distribution is direct-to-public via its own website and a regional events circuit (Zappeion Hall, Megaron, National Gallery), with international reach through collaborations with the World Values Survey, World Bank, Harvard Center for European Studies, Sciences Po CERI, the Delphi Economic Forum, and other partners.

• European Policy Centre (EPC): Brussels-based think tank producing European policy analysis and convening stakeholders. Comparable to diaNEOsis in mission to inform European policy debates through independent research, though focused on EU-level rather than Greek-specific issues.
• Carnegie Europe: European arm of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. Comparable to diaNEOsis as an independent policy research organization with strong convening power, though covering pan-European rather than Greek-specific topics.
