European Institute of Innovation & Technology

The European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) is the EU body created to boost Europe’s ability to turn great ideas into market ready solutions.
It does this by linking businesses, research centres and universities inside cross border partnerships called Knowledge & Innovation Communities (KICs).


    What EIT Offers?

    The European Institute of Innovation & Technology supports innovation across Europe through a range of practical programmes and services:
    • Education and skills development
    EIT offers education programmes that combine technical training with business and entrepreneurial skills.
    These include EIT-labelled master's and PhD courses, as well as professional training and summer schools.
    • Support for innovation projects
    EIT helps turn research into real-world solutions by funding and coordinating collaborative innovation projects that involve universities, companies, and research institutions.
    • Start-up and scale-up support
    Entrepreneurs and growing businesses can benefit from mentoring, incubation services, and access to investors through the EIT’s network and innovation communities.
    • Access to opportunities and funding
    Through regular open calls, competitions, and project grants, EIT enables innovators and organisations to secure funding and join cross-sector partnerships.
