The European Commission has launched a public consultation on the revision of the EIT Regulation (European Institute of Innovation and Technology) with a feedback period from 12 August 2026 till 23 September 2026.

This proposed regulation is one of the final pieces in the revision of the Horizon Europe programme. It wants to examine more in particular the following issues:

  • How to better translate knowledge into market impact ?
  • Which features of the EIT and its KICs (knowledge and innovation communities) have been succesful so far ?
  • How can the EIT better attract and support talented innovators and entrepreneurs ?
  • How can the EIT enhance the synergies with other financial instruments in the next framework programme ?
  • How can the flexibility and governance of the EIT model be improved without hampering the financial interests and ethical rules of the European Union

Stakeholders are invited to share their views through the Commission's Have Your Say portal which can be accessed here.

Luciad - Geospatial software for mission-critical operations

Founded in 1999, Luciad serves clients in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Though it recently was acquired by Hexagon Geospatial, they kept an agile SME mindset. Thousands of end users work directly with Luciad’s geospatial applications, and major systems integrators (think Airbus Defense and Space, Lufthansa Systems, NATO, Thales…) incorporate its software in their own products.

NCP Flanders went to Leuven to interview Frederic Houbie, the Research Projects Manager at Luciad, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Luciad is a partner in the MARISA project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
