The European Commission has launched a Call for Ideas for a European Innovation Council to support Europe’s most promising innovators.
Commissioner Moedas launched the Call for ideas at the Science|Business Annual Conference in Brussels. He said that “Europe has excellent science, but we lack disruptive market-creating innovation. This is what is needed to turn our best ideas into new jobs, businesses and opportunities.” While the number of start-ups created in Europe is on a par with competitors such as the United States, Europe lags behind in disruptive innovation and in scaling start-ups into world-beating businesses. A European Innovation Council could contribute to solving this problem.
To find out more and to participate in this survey, please go to the European Innovation Council website, where you can also view background documents and position papers.
The deadline for survey completion in 29 April 2016.
