ProgrammesThe European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) will launch a new Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC) focusing on the Cultural & Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI).
This new EIT KIC will deliver innovative solutions to help the cultural and creative sectors and industries become stronger and more resilient by uniting cultural and creative organisations from business, higher organisations and research in a pan-European innovation ecosystem. This new community will train the sector’s future entrepreneurs, power its cutting-edge ventures, and deliver innovative solutions to the challenges facing the sectors. It would also bridge regional innovation gaps and harness the power of these sectors to support Europe’s cultural leadership.
To learn more on this new Knowledge and Innovation Community on Cultural & Creative Sectors and Industries you can also have a look at this factsheet.
On 21 April 2021 at 14:00 - 15:30 (CET), EIT will organize the EIT webinar - New innovation opportunity for CCSI. During this webinar you will find out more about EIT’s upcoming Call for Proposals to boost innovation in the Cultural & Creative Sectors and Industries and how organisations from business, higher education and research can be involved in this new KIC.

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.
