The European Innovation Council (EIC) is organising an Info Day in Copenhagen, Denmark, on November 26, 2025.
Join us to learn more about what applying for and receiving the EIC Accelerator grant entails, who the ideal applicants are, and how the grant can support your company’s growth.
From funding opportunities to first-hand success stories, this event will bring together policymakers, innovators, and founders to discuss how deep tech startups can scale and thrive in Europe with the EIC.
The afternoon will include open discussions between Danish startups and EU policymakers, a presentation of the EIC Accelerator and application process, and a speed-dating session where aspiring applicants can meet and exchange experiences directly with successful EIC-funded companies.
The event is your opportunity to get practical answers to your questions, gain valuable insights directly from EIC representatives and awardees, and explore whether your company could be among the next Danish recipients of the EIC Accelerator grant.
The event will be held in English and is organised in collaboration with Danish Tech Startups.
