The European Institute for Innovation and Technology (EIT) recently announced the continuation of the ‘EIT Higher Education Institutions (HEI) Initiative’. As Europe’s largest and most experienced innovation ecosystem, the EIT created a dedicated programme: the EIT HEI Initiative to unlock the full innovation and entrepreneurship potential of higher education institutions. The EIT HEI Initiative is centred on creating institutional change in universities to increase their innovation potential. So far, supported projects were successful in creating new start-up support infrastructures on campuses, including offices that mandated improved technology transfer, new guidelines for research, commercialisation and intellectual property rights strategies, and new curricula for students and staff.
