The EIT with the Estonian Ministry of Education and Research is organising an EIT Awareness Day on 13 October 2017 in Tallinn.
The event is held as side event to the Estonian Presidency conference on European Research Excellence and aims at raising awareness of the activities, results and achievements of the EIT Community and in particular of the opportunities for engagement. At this interactive, informal event, the EIT Community will provide a general introduction to its activities as well as specific information on potential areas for cooperation with interested national stakeholders.
Participants from all sides of the knowledge triangle (education, research, business incl. SMEs) are encouraged to attend. Furthermore, in case of specific requests, speed dating sessions with representatives of the EIT Innovation Communities will be arranged.
