EIT LEADERS – Women Innovators in Manufacturing

16/06/2023

In the framework of EIT Regional Innovation Scheme (EIT RIS), a call of Knowledge and Innovation Community for Manufacturing (EIT Manufacturing) is now open for submission. The call is a competition that celebrates the women innovators behind the solutions addressing manufacturing-related challenges. The Prize is awarded to women innovators, coming from EIT RIS eligible countries, who have significantly impacted the innovation ecosystem by transforming ideas into new and advanced products and/or services to benefit people and the planet and playing a leading role in developing solutions fitting one of the  EIT Manufacturing flagship areas. The competition is structured as follows: in the first round of submissions, up to 60 eligible applicants will receive online pitch training. After the second round, and the evaluations of the received submissions by external evaluators, six top-ranked applicants will be invited to an awarding ceremony where three winners will be publicly announced and receive prizes in the amount of EUR 10.000, EUR 7.500 and EUR 5.000. The call is open until July 18th, 2023.

All information is available on the EIT Manufacturing website here.
