Empowering Inclusion in Tech and Business
Our core mission at the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) is to fight unequal access to opportunities in business and tech, especially for historically excluded groups such as women.
Women’s participation in the world of innovation is critical both to successfully steering tech towards sustainability and to avoiding the reproduction of existing inequalities. That’s why we created programmes specifically designed to give women the skills and support they need to break into the tech world.
The sustainable future must also be an inclusive future. Join our dedicated programmes for women.

Entrepreneurs as Frontline Drivers of the Green and Digital Transitions
Why do we believe entrepreneurs are key to tackling societal challenges such as climate change and pandemics?
Because supporting them accelerates the adoption of the critical technologies and helps ensure Europe leads in sustainability. By turning more ideas into viable innovations, we foster a more inclusive, competitive ecosystem where all Europeans can benefit from the green and digital transitions.
