It is independent of any external body and funded only by its members, which range from large and small commercial organisations to national institutes and universities, according to a Ricardo statement.

Neville Jackson, chief technology and innovation officer at Ricardo, said, “We would like to warmly congratulate Simon on his appointment as chair of EARPA. It is a tribute to the breadth and depth of his own experience in automotive R&D, and also constitutes recognition of Ricardo’s strong commitment to commercially focused research and development – in Europe and beyond”.
