The European Institute for innovation and technology (EIT) aims to bridge the gap between innovation and commercialisation. It does so by connecting the three pillars of the knowledge triangle (innovation, business creation and education) through the establishment of Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs). Currently, there are 9 different KICs, each forming a network of companies, universities, research centres and other organizations. These communities regularly launch calls for proposals to identify high-potential companies and play a key role in upskilling the workforce to meet the demands of emerging deep tech sectors.
Although the EIT has been active since 2010, its opportunities remain relatively unknown among researchers and innovators in the Benelux region. To raise awareness and foster engagement, the National Contact Points (NCPs) of the Benelux have joined forces to present to you the following seminar:
10:00-10:10 General introduction by the three Belgian NCP
10:10-10.40 Overview of EIT. Marton Herczeg (EIT)
10:40-12.15 Overview of relevant KICs and testimonials
12.15-12.20 Wrap-up
12.20-13.30 Networking coffee + sandwich
The attendance is limited to 75 participants but a livestream will also be available. Registration is mandatory and possible till 19th of September 2025 and can be completed via this website.
