From 7 – 11 December 2020, the Knowledge for Innovation Forum will take the pulse of Europe’s innovation performance as policy makers, scientists, researchers, entrepreneurs, investors and startups will engage in the 12th edition of the European Innovation Summit. For over a decade, K4l has been « The Place for Debate on the Future of Innovation in Europe » stressing the crucial role of innovation to solve major problems. Now more than ever, we not only need a robust innovation policy, but a set of policies that rely on innovation in all domains. The Summit entitled “Towards a European Innovation Area” will discuss about barriers and actionable ideas to increase Europe’s innovation performance. Besides the European Innovation Area, the program of the 12 EIS is hosting the 2nd AI & Big Data for Innovation Summit as well as the Wominvest strand on Day 3, Wednesday, 9 December. Women-led VCs, startups and businesses will present their struggle to deploy their innovation potential culminating in an Award Ceremony with Commissioner Mariya Gabriel. You can find an overview of all events on our website. On Monday evening we have the opportunity to discuss with Commissioner Gabriel her plans for a European Innovation Area (EIA). You are invited to join the debate! Kind regards, K4I Team |
