The European Innovation Council (EIC) in collaboration with Innovate UK invites you to register your interest for an EIC Info Day in the UK in London on 1st October 2024.

EIC is Europe’s flagship innovation programme to identify, develop and scale-up breakthrough technologies and game changing innovations. 

This in-person info session will provide an introduction to the main EIC calls in the morning and the afternoon session will focus on the EIC Accelerator, which is particularly for development and scaling up of high-risk innovations by start-ups and SMEs, including with blended finance support (UK grant only). Hear from EIC representatives and industry experts as they share insights into how to navigate the application process for the EIC Accelerator.

Panel sessions throughout the day will support you on how to prepare your application and highlight best practice and tips to improve your project proposals. You will also learn about the networks and support available from EIC National Contact Points and Innovate UK Business Growth Advisors on how you can improve your chances of success in EIC programmes and elevate your innovation.

The Info Day will take place in-person in London from 10am (9:30 am registration) to 4pm.

This event is ideal for researchers, innovators, and organisations interested in applying to the EIC funding and support.

Priority will be given to potential applicants.

The morning session is for academics and researchers and the afternoon session is tailored for SMEs offering insights and support, although delegates are welcome to select one or both sessions.

We look forward to seeing you on the day.
