Business Development and Funding Opportunities
The annual Call for Innovation & Education Projects is an opportunity for innovators to maximise the recognition of their disruptive ideas among leading players within Europe’s raw materials sector. EIT RawMaterials is seeking solutions from potential candidates to contribute to shaping a strong, sustainable raw materials sector in Europe.
The European Green Deal has put a tremendous spotlight on the raw materials sector to deliver deep tech innovation and education at an unprecedented pace and scale. It will cause an industrial shift that puts the environmental and social responsibility for our human capital and efficient governance at the centre of every business model. This transformation will lead to scales of innovation not seen before and turn the industry into a powerhouse of innovation and change.
EIT RawMaterials is the only raw materials leader in the world to offer a collaboration platform for industry, research and education. The Call for Innovation & Education Projects is a funding opportunity to empower the raw materials sector to leave behind traditional approaches and develop new, disruptive solutions crucial to establishing the highest industry standards and strengthening our global leadership.
Only by working together can we achieve outstanding results and make great strides in building a world-leading raw materials industry for Europe. Please visit our website to learn about the Call for Innovation & Education Projects with EIT RawMaterials.
