EIT Community Hub Italy

The EIT Community Hub Italy acts as a one-stop shop that gathers all EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) in Italy and supports and identifies synergies between the EIT Community and local actors. The hub reinforces local entrepreneurship and builds bridges between local and EU innovation networks. The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) strengthens Europe’s ability to innovate by powering solutions to pressing global challenges and by nurturing entrepreneurial talent to create sustainable growth and skilled jobs in Europe. The EIT is an EU body and an integral part of Horizon Europe, the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation. The KICs are dedicated to driving systemic change in Europe and beyond, focusing on key areas such as climate change, energy, health, food, manufacturing, raw materials, digitalisation, urban mobility, culture and creativity. The EIT Community Hub Italy is funded by the EIT, a body of the European Union.
