EIT Urban Mobility's candidates for the EIT Jumpstarter Grand Final

The EIT Jumpstarter Grand Final will be held virtually on 25 November 2020 starting at 1 pm (CET) with the keynote speech of Martin Kern, EIT Director.

EIT Jumpstarter is the flagship programme of the Cross-KIC cooperation within the Regional Innovation Scheme (EIT RIS). EIT Jumpstarter, recognised as the 2019 Best Association Training Initiative in Europe, is one of the widest cross-industrial programmes designed for early-stage innovators who want to gain traction and jumpstart their business.

The fourth edition was organised in collaboration with six knowledge and innovation communities: EIT Health, EIT Food, EIT RawMaterials, EIT InnoEnergy, EIT Urban Mobility and EIT Manufacturing, initiated and funded by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT).
