Partnership website: https://eit-culture-creativity.eu/
EIT Culture & Creativity will bridge silos across the cultural and creative sectors and industries, and power the next generation of innovators and creatives across Europe.

About

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.

How to get involved?

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. 

Contact

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.

How to use partnerships?

  • orientation
    Partnerships publish strategic documents, e.g. outlining the main research and innovation challenges or key focus points.
  • networking
    Partnerships often organise events, such as info days, brokerage events, etc. Meet potential partners and learn about the nuances that are not visible in the official documents.
  • ecosystem analysis
    Partnerships typically have an advisory board, and publish impact studies of previous actions. These are good sources of information to uncover the main R&D&I players in the domain.
  • steering the agenda
    Partnerships collaborate with the EC on outlining the strategy and the future funding opportunities in their domain, based on input from industry, academia, and other stakeholders.

Testimonial

UrbanAIR - Digital Twin for Urban Climate Action

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-INFRA-2024-TECH-01-03) and running from 2025 to 2028, UrbanAIR develops advanced digital twins that simulate the interactions between urban climate, human behaviour, and policy choices. These models enable cities to explore what-if scenarios, such as new green infrastructure, mobility measures or building designs, and assess their impacts on health, safety and social equity. The project consortium consists of 18 partners from 11 countries. Read more about the project and the contribution of Flemish partner Vito in this testimonial.
