What is the EIT AI & Robotics Community?

The EIT AI & Robotics Community is an initiative of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) that supports the development, scaling, and internationalization of artificial intelligence and robotics ventures across Europe.

It addresses Europe’s gap between research excellence and global commercialization by supporting startups and scaleups with funding, venture building, and market access, helping them grow and expand internationally.

The Community focuses on accelerating deep tech companies, strengthening Europe’s strategic autonomy in AI, and enabling the deployment of responsible and competitive AI and robotics solutions.

It is a collaboration between 28DIGITAL, EIT Food, EIT Health, and EIT Culture & Creativity, forming a cross-sector European platform to scale AI and robotics ventures internationally.
