CinnovatE is a pan-European initiative that embeds technological innovation, entrepreneurship, and circular economy thinking in higher education. Funded by the EIT’s Higher Education Initiative and hosted by Climate-KIC, CinnovatE bridges academia, research, and industry to help students turn circular economy ideas into real-world prototypes and market-ready ventures. The day will focus on how ideas grow from academic training to hands-on experimentation, through entrepreneurship, to start-ups that launch new ideas into the real world. Presentations will showcase innovative new courses, incubators, and partnerships already designing for the circular economy.
