Ever wondered what the EIT in front of InnoEnergy stands for? While I was researching InnoEnergy, I found EIT was funding a lot of different Master’s and short courses. A little digging and talking to the EIT InnoEnergy team made me realise how well the Master programmes are catered towards achieving Europe’s sustainability & renewable energy goals.
The European Institute of Innovation and Technology is a European innovation body with a mission to educate a new generation of entrepreneurs and innovators in Europe with an entrepreneurial mindset [1]. EIT InnoEnergy is one such branch of the EIT mission which caters to energy transition in Europe. With the increasing need to bring innovative technologies to foster a collective action towards climate change, EIT InnoEnergy’s educational partnerships focus on innovation, entrepreneurship and leadership. Furthermore, EIT’s strategies and goals are in line with the Horizon 2020 project goals, to improve Europe’s global competitiveness.
