EIT Culture & Creativity operates under a governance structure built for transparency, accountability and impact. Our Supervisory, Executive and Advisory Boards bring together diverse expertise to guide our mission across Europe's Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries, driving meaningful innovation for a sustainable future.
Supervisory Board
The Supervisory Board (SB) supervises both EIT Culture & Creativity e.V., a non-profit association, and the KIC Legal Entity, EIT Culture and Creativity GmbH. It guides and supports the EIT Culture & Creativity’s Management Team, its policy and course of action and the general conduct of affairs, considering the interests and concerns of the KIC’s stakeholders as well as the EIT regulations.
Our history
The founding of EIT Culture & Creativity took place during the Start-Up Grant Agreement (SUGA) period, which ran from 1 October 2022, to 31 December 2023 (Grant ID 101112064).
This was an intensely busy period marked by significant milestones, including:
- the incorporation of all legal entities;
- the establishment of core teams and the wider community;
- and the awarding of our very first grants through the initial call for proposals.
This rapid progress would not have been possible without the dedication of the SUGA consortium partners and support teams. Specifically, the Coordinator, Fraunhofer ISC in Würzburg, was responsible for ensuring the proper implementation of all legal and administrative requirements set by the granting authority, the EIT.
Following the SUGA period, the Strategic Agenda 2024–2027 for EIT Culture & Creativity was formally approved by the General Assembly of EIT CCSI e.V. on 7 June 2024.
