The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) the EU’s most experienced and largest innovation network that powers innovators and entrepreneurs across Europe to deliver unique solutions to pressing global challenges.
The Institute makes innovation happen through a distinctive model that supports the development of long-term European partnerships – EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities – where businesses, education and research closely cooperate. The EIT’s logic is: innovation needs a pipeline of ideas, talent and a supporting ecosystem.

The Institute offers a wide range of activities to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into products, services and jobs, including entrepreneurial education programmes, start-up and acceleration support and innovation-driven research projects.
