Press release - Innovate and grow! Malta’s innovators invited to join the EIT Community

Valetta, Malta, 31 October 2018 –To help power Malta’s innovators, the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) is showcasing its innovation cooperation opportunities during an Awareness Day in Kalkara. This event is being organised together with the Maltese Council for Science and Technology.

Europe’s future is connected to its power to innovate. A competitive edge has never been more important, especially for smaller Member States. Malta has great potential to expand its innovation capacity (Malta Factsheet – European Innovation Scoreboard), and the EIT stands ready to support Maltese innovators. That’s the role of the EIT – to support students, researchers and entrepreneurs to help them grow their entrepreneurial skills and their businesses, creating jobs, and improving the lives of citizens across Europe. As a global player, the European Union, through the EIT, is focused on powering innovators to turn their best ideas into products, services and jobs for Europe.
