The EIT’s Knowledge and Innovation Communities are partnerships that bring together businesses, research centres and universities and which aim to strengthen their cooperation and create favourable environments for creative thought processes and innovation to flourish. The communities contribute to developing innovative products and services, starting new companies and training a new generation of entrepreneurs. The EIT Culture and Creativity community will deliver innovative solutions to help the sectors and industries become stronger and more resilient. This innovation community will train the sector’s future entrepreneurs, support cutting-edge ventures, and deliver innovative solutions to the challenges facing the sectors. A call for proposal invites consortia to submit their ideas for the new EIT Culture & Creativity KIC, in the lead up to funding opportunities opening in 2023. Organisations are also invited to join a networking platform to learn more about the development process of the EIT Culture and Creativity community, as well as to connect with potential partners for the upcoming EIT Call for Proposals.
