EIT Culture & Creativity is joining the family of EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities. It will bring the Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI) into the largest innovation network in Europe. This is the result of decades-long efforts of groups in the policy, industrial, social, and cultural realms, who have made possible the recognition of CCSI as an economic, social, and innovative powerhouse in Europe.

The EIT Culture & Creativity’s Moonshot event provides an opportunity to establish a long-term and ambitious shared goal for the competitiveness of European CCSIs and their critical role in the future of Europe.

We have confirmed the participation of relevant representatives from the European Parliament, the European Commission, Member States, regions, and cities. On stage and in the audience, there will also be representatives from the industry, the arts and cultural heritage, academia, research and innovation, and investment organizations.
