develop a pan-European strategy to address these priorities
and include a convincing implementation plan and suitable KIC
partnership to succeed.
• Call’s overarching principles are excellence and impact and
applicants should propose the area(s) and approach that will
deliver the biggest economic and societal impact.

engagement.

products and services, start new companies, and train a new generation
of entrepreneurs.
• Entrepreneurship education is a key pillar of EIT activities.
