The Deep Tech Talent Initiative by the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) will train one million researcher in deep tech skills and entrepreneurship by 2025. To do so, the EIT will rally its network and new partners to develop trainings and courses in cutting edge fields that will be at the forefront of future industries. The long-term goal is to increase the amount of European innovation being created to fight climate change, create new agri-food systems, build more liveable cities, and more.
The EIT invites organisations involved or interested in deep tech to join it in shaping and running deep tech education programmes by taking The Pledge. The Pledge is open to:
- Education and training institutions that offer educational and training courses and can be directly responsible for skilling and re-skilling talents.
- Enterprises that are using or developing deep tech and can offer in-company training, mentoring, open innovation competitions, and other means of support.
- Financing partners like venture capital firms or angel investors that finance deep tech innovation, including financing deep tech education and training.
- Stakeholders/Multipliers like EU Member States and other public and non-profit organisations that can offer their unique inputs, expertise, and networks.
