Cooperation for Innovation and Gender Equality
The European Innovation Council (EIC) and the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) are joining forces! The objective of EEN2EIC is to empower EEN network’s offices to support potential EIC applicants, specifically women entrepreneurs, widening countries, and Seal of Excellence (SoE) holders. The project aims to develop a strong cooperation mechanism between EIC and EEN in order to support innovation and scale up companies. EEN2EIC will involve the most relevant actors in the EIC and EEN landscape: the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) and the EIC NCPs Network (ACCESS2EIC).
EEN2EIC aims to focus on specific outreach and support activities, increasing the number of quality proposals to EIC calls with a specific focus in widening countries as well as women innovators, assisting Seal of Excellence holders access alternative sources of funding and guarantee a strong and profitable exchange of best practice within EEN. EEN2EIC overall objective is to make EU innovation support more efficient by improving the capacity of SMEs to apply to the EIC and by helping SoE holders finance their projects and to avoid overlapping with NCPs activities.
