European Institute of Innovation and Technology
EIT helps businesses, educational and research bodies work together to create an environment conducive for innovation and entrepreneurship in Europe. EIT increases Europe’s capacity to innovate, compete with foreign peers and so create jobs and wealth. It brings together the 3 key players in innovation – business, education and research – to form dynamic, multi-country partnerships, known as Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs).
