EIC INFO DAY
In cooperation with the European Commission, Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are organizing an international information day where research organisations and innovative companies can learn about the opportunities offered by the European Innovation Council (EIC).

Potential applicants from Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are cordially invited to learn more about these opportunities, but also about the successes achieved within the European Innovation Council funding schemes.
High-level speakers from the European Commission (including the president of the EIC Board Michiel Scheffer), and EISMEA will present the overall strategy and give an overview of the EIC's three main funding programmes:
- EIC Pathfinder: for advanced research on breakthrough or pioneering technologies
- EIC Transition: for the transformation of research results into innovation opportunities
- EIC Accelerator: for individual companies to develop and commercialise high-risk, high-impact breakthrough innovations
You will have the opportunity to get first-hand feedback from beneficiaries: We will present success stories from Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia and provide insights that will help you increase your chances of success.
