EIT Culture & Creativity: Open Calls for the Cultural and Creative Sectors

EIT Culture & Creativity is a EU-funded Knowledge and Innovation Community that’s bringing creatives from all walks of life together to rethink how we live as Europeans. It aims to fundamentally change the Cultural and Creative Sectors and Industries (CCSI) towards new understandings of competitiveness, sustainable economic growth coupled with positive social and environmental impacts. It embraces all forms of innovation to generate prosperity, positive environmental and social impacts, and fair conditions for creatives and cultural workers.

EIT Culture & Creativity publishes open calls for funding regularly. They support all players in the Cultural & Creative Sectors and Industries by open calls for proposals for innovative higher education, professional training, products and services, as well as to start and accelerate businesses. This empowers stakeholders to excel in competitiveness, resilience, and sustainable economic growth.
