Academic partners. Higher Education is a multi-billion Euro business in many countries, and that part of the education including mathematics (therefore much of science and engineering, also economics and other social sciences) is probably 25% of this total. While predictions of the death of traditional universities in favour of a totally e-learning world are wildly exaggerated, it is clear that Universities throughout the EU and beyond are trying to deploy e-learning where appropriate. This is greatly hampered by the absence of a reasonable way of displaying and representing mathematics on the net. Bath, Nice and TUE have all expressed interest in using MONET technology to develop tools and applications in this area.
