Mobilizing the EIT and EIC to support Europe’s next generation of innovators / entrepreneurs

The EIT Community Hub Montenegro and the Ministry of Education, Science and Innovation invite you to a dedicated Info Day focused on EU support mechanisms for innovation and entrepreneurship.

Location: Science-Technology Park of Montenegro
Date: July 4th, 2025
Time: 11:45 – 15:30h

This high-impact event will spotlight the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) and the European Innovation Council (EIC) as key instruments under the EU’s Horizon Europe programme, within the context of the new EU Start-up and Scale-up Strategy.

Participants will hear directly from EU officials, EIT and EIC representatives, national institutions, and international consultants working on EU innovation support. The goal is to provide practical information and foster strategic alignment between Montenegro’s innovation stakeholders and evolving EU priorities.

Participants will gain insights into:

  • What is a new EU strategic approach to less developed innovation regions of Europe
  • What defines a fundable and scalable venture in today’s EU landscape
  • How to plug into the EIT ecosystem
  • What has EIC prepared for the Widening countries
  • Practical steps for Montenegro’s innovators to catch up with EU opportunities and requirements
  • Institutional support to innovators from Montenegro

Whether you’re an innovator, founder, incubator owner, investor, or policymaker — this is your moment to connect, learn, and lead the regional innovation conversation.

The event will be held in English.
