EIT launched a Call for expressions of interest for the selection of new members for its Governing Board

On 5 August 2019, the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) launched a call for expressions of interest for the selection of up to eight new members of its Governing Board. The EIT Governing Board consists of 12 European innovation leaders appointed by the European Commission (EC) for a non-renewable four-year mandate, aiming at:
  • being responsible for the selection, designation and evaluation of the EIT’s Knowledge and Innovation Communities;
  • providing the EIT’s strategic leadership;
  • being independent in its decision-making.
  The application deadline is until 7 October 2019. A Steering Committee will evaluate the submissions and prepare a shortlist of proposed candidates which will be approved by the EIT Governing Board and transmitted it to the EC.   More information
