The Trans-European Transport Network Executive Agency ( INEA , English I nnovation and N etworks E xecutive A gency , formerly Executive Agency Trans-European Transport Network ) is an agency of the European Union based in Brussels and the Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport assigned.

The agency is one of currently six executive agencies in the European Union . These occupy a special position among the EU agencies. They are set up by the European Commission and are tasked with managing certain programs. They are not designed to be permanent, but only set up for a limited period of time and have the same status as a Directorate General of the European Commission . In contrast to the other EU agencies, they have to be located in Brussels or Luxembourg and, unlike these, do not have their own legal personality.

The task of the executive agency is to implement the tasks relating to the Trans-European Transport Networks, which result from the chapter "Trans-European Networks" of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union .

The legal basis for this executive agency is, on the one hand, EU Council Regulation 58/2003 of December 19, 2002 and Commission Decision 2007/60 / EC of October 26, 2006.

Since 2014, INEA has also been managing the renewed Marco Polo program .
