EIT announces INNOVEIT 2016
The 2016 edition of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology’s (EIT) Innovation Forum INNOVEIT is to take place in Budapest, Hungary, on 25-26 April.
INNOVEIT combines the EIT Awards and the EIT Stakeholder Forum and has a specific focus on joining forces for innovation in Europe.
The two-day event will explore collaboration opportunities between the EIT, KICs and other initiatives and activities in the area, and aims to showcase concrete innovations emerging from the EIT community, engage in dialogue with innovation stakeholders on synergies with other EU programmes, and present the next generation of entrepreneurs and change agents.
It is expected to bring together more than 300 participants, among them entrepreneurs; representatives from higher education and research; EU, national and regional policy makers; and entrepreneurial graduates.
The EIT Alumni CONNECT event, the annual forum for EIT graduates to meet and network, will take place in the lead up to INNOVEIT.
Registration will open at the beginning of March.
