EIT Newsletter 04 Apr 2024
Our new RIS Community Hub in Ukraine back in January was just the beginning. We've opened two more new EIT locations in the UK and Latvia and more are on their way!
March was also a momentous moment for our celebration of Europe's greatest women in the tech business, with trailblazers getting the spotlight through the new European Prize for Women Innovators.
And that's not all: the EIT Community received special recognition from none other than the Financial Times in their new edition of their 'Europe's Leading Start-up Hubs' ranking.
