EIT Alumni CONNECT - INNOVEIT 2015

Image

The EIT Alumni CONNECT event will bring together more than 100 students and alumni from Climate-KIC, EIT ICT Labs and KIC InnoEnergy, and gives the opportunity to: 

  • share their knowledge and experiences and discuss their entrepreneurial ideas with fellow students/alumni in a cross-disciplinary way;
  • contribute to the development of the EIT Alumni Community by developing ideas and proposing ways to implement them jointly; 
  • find partners for exchange of ideas and potential collaboration (e.g. start-ups searching for people with specific skills). 

Here is the draft agenda.

The EIT Alumni Connect Event is an integral part of INNOVEIT2015 – the EIT Innovation Forum. KIC Students and alumni are invited to participate in the entire event from 5 to7 May and will have the opportunity to: 

  • meet and discuss their ideas with successful innovators and entrepreneurs, including EIT Awards nominees, as well as EU and national policy makers and innovation experts; 
  • meet and network with the EIT Community, including the new EIT Health and EIT Raw Materials communities; 
  • feed-back their ideas and opinions on the EIT`s plan and strategy for the future, especially at the Stakeholder Forum (day 3).

The EIT will organise travel and accommodation for a total of 114 students and alumni from Climate-KIC, EIT ICT Labs and KIC InnoEnergy, who currently study in an EIT labelled/KIC Master or PHD programme or have graduated from an EIT labelled/KIC Master or PhD programme. The list of Master and PhD programmes can be found here.

  • are motivated to contribute to the development of the EIT Alumni Community; 
  • are eager to collaborate with students and alumni from other KICs; 
  • would like to feed back their ideas and opinions on the EIT’s plan and strategy.
