EIT Innovation Awards 2025

The EIT Innovation Awards event brings together three flagship EIT Community initiatives that showcase and celebrate the most promising early-stage innovators, the most successful entrepreneurs, and the most inspiring leaders who have been nurtured by the EIT Community, and which serve as a testimony to the EIT’s mission:  

• The EIT Awards - celebrate Europe's brightest entrepreneurs and innovators within the EIT ecosystem, recognizing excellence across four inspiring categories: "Most Promising EIT Changemaker", "Best Innovation Team", "Most Promising Venture", "The Public Award".

• EIT Jumpstarter Grand Finale - after a 7-month pre-acceleration programme, early-stage innovators from moderate and emerging innovation regions will compete for prizes of up to EUR 10.000 across seven categories.

• The EIT Red Kalyna Awards - recognise the extraordinary efforts of Ukrainian women entrepreneurs, educators, researchers, and mentors who are driving innovation and positive change. 

The event will feature the EIT Awards Finalists’ Pitching and Award Ceremony, as well as engaging discussions and inspiring speeches, and networking opportunities.
