EIT has launched a new Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC) for the Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI) in Europe. This new KIC will unite cultural and creative organisations from business, higher education, and research and beyond in a pan-European innovation ecosystem. Furthermore, this KIC will train this sector’s future entrepreneurs, power its cutting-edge ventures, and deliver innovative solutions to the challenges the Culture and Creative Sectors and Industries are facing.
EIT Culture and Creativity launches calls on a regular basis. These calls focus on activities that have the potential to strengthen entrepreneurship, innovation capacity and accelerate the competitiveness of European Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI) and Europe’s Green, Digital and Social Transitions. You can find them here.
EIT Culture and Creativity has six Co-Location Centres (CLCs) located across Europe with headquarters in Germany. The Co-Location Centres (CLCs) will act as first entry point for organisations interested to join or participate in the activities of EIT Culture and Creativity. Belgian stakeholders can contact CLC North West (Amsterdam, Netherlands) via clc-nw@eit-culture-creativity.eu.
Finally you can also contact the NCP for Culture and Society, manhei.to@fwo.be.

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
