From April 20-22 2026, EIC-funded companies can participate in training sessions designed to develop the knowledge and practical skills needed to engage in public and private procurement opportunities in Europe and beyond, wit the objective of helping them scale up their business.

Yearly over 250 000 EU public authorities spend around 14% of GDP (around €2 trillion ) procuring services, works and supplies. An increasing share of this is dedicated to procuring innovation. Innovation Procurement allows suppliers of innovative solution to engage in early discussions with potential buyers, helping new and disruptive innovations find their way into tenders.

Are you interested in learning how to leverage public and private innovation procurement to scale your business?
