Programmes EITWomen founders still struggle more than men to raise funding and scale their start-ups.
Promoting the role models of female founders and their companies is therefore crucial for raising awareness about the gender balance in the digital space and inspiring more women to become entrepreneurs.
With this in mind, EIT Digital is launching the third edition of the European Female-Led Deep Tech Start-up & Scale-up Landscape, built in collaboration with Dealroom, which aims to highlight successful deep tech ventures led by female founders.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
