European Innovation Council online Info Day – Work Programme 2024

A full one day online event will take place to present The European Innovation Council (EIC) Work Programme 2024 on Monday 15th January 2024.

Prospective applicants for the European Innovation Council (EIC) interested in the upcoming opportunities under the Work Programme 2024 are warmly invited to join this full-day online Info Day to learn more about these opportunities, but also about the successes achieved under the previous work programmes.

High-level speakers from the European Innovation Council and SMEs Executive Agency (EISMEA) and the Directorate-General for Research and Innovation (DG RTD) of the European Commission and from the European Investment Bank (EIB) will provide an overview about three main funding schemes provided by EIC:

• EIC Pathfinder: for advanced research on breakthrough or game-changing technologies;
• EIC Transition: for transforming research results into innovation opportunities;
• EIC Accelerator: for individual companies to develop and scale up breakthrough innovations with high risk and high impact.

Dedicated sessions will present the wide range of services (access to coaches, mentors, access to global partners & innovation ecosystem) offered to all EIC-funded projects and companies by the Business Acceleration Services (BAS) and the Lump Sums as a novelty from 2024 relevant for all schemes.

The event will conclude with an overview of the free of charge support that prospective applicants can get from their EIC National Contact Points (Access2EIC network) and their local Enterprise Europe Network (EEN2EIC network) advisers.

The following day an online Info Day dedicated to the EIC Accelerator Challenges under the Work Programme 2024 will take place.
