EIT (European Institute of Innovation andTechnology)
The EIT is an EU body that enhances Europe’s ability to innovate
by nurturing young entrepreneurial talent and supporting new
ideas through the Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs).

idea to productlab to customer
The EIT aims to increase the cooperation and integration between higher education, business and research to facilitate the transition from:
The EIT is the first EU initiative bringingtogether the three sides of the “knowledgetriangle”: business (companies and SMEs),higher education institutions and researchcentres.
What is a EIT-KIC
KIC (acronym of Knowledge Innovation Community) is:
• A thematic innovation community that develop
innovative products and services, foster new business,
encourage growth and nurture young entrepreneurial
talent
• Characterised by a high degree of integration, a long-
term perspective, efficient governance, the co-location
model and the entrepreneurial culture
• Unique partnerships that increase Europe’s capacity for
innovation by bringing together leading companies,
universities and research labs
• Driven by a pursuit of excellence

Mission
Goals
To boost the competitiveness, growth, and attractiveness of the European Raw Materials sector via radical innovation and entrepreneurship.
1. Creating and developing new “game changing” businesses
2. Boosting the existing RM sector through the market introduction of new materials, investment in new production and processing units, system integration and the setting up of new partnerships
3. Achieving a “paradigm shift” in RM education by introducing entrepreneurship, supporting the effective transformation of ideas into businesses
