EIT Global Outreach connects EU startups with strategic global markets, unlocking knowledge and opportunities for commercialisation, investment, and long-term success – strengthening Europe’s leadership in innovation.
Over the past 15 years, the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) established 9 Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) to strengthen Europe’s capacity to innovate and find solutions to global societal challenges.
In 2018, acknowledging the importance of international cooperation in tackling such challenges, the EIT and its KICs established together the EIT Global Outreach Programme. Contributing to the EU’s Global Approach in Research & Innovation, it is the first EIT Community coordinated effort at global level.
The EIT Global Outreach bridges the EU innovation ecosystem with those of strategic locations worldwide, forging synergies to drive EU innovation. With hubs in Silicon Valley, the UK and Israel, and programmes in Canada, the US East Coast, Japan and Brazil, the initiative enables startups to launch innovations worldwide, attract investments and build impactful cross-border collaborations.
