EIT JumpStarter is a business idea competition created jointly by EIT Food, EIT RawMaterials and EIT Health, aiming to improve cross-sectoral innovation performance in countries of Central and Southern Europe. We are looking for idea holders and early stage start-ups who have innovative ideas in thematic areas of Food, Health or Raw Materials.

Deadline for submission is 1 March, 2019, 5 p.m. CET! 

Selected teams will start with a 2-day Business Planning Bootcamp (in one of nine locations across Europe, organized from April to June 2019), which will provide a unique cross-industry environment. They will learn how to get started on building a business, including how to define a business model, build a team, business processes and organizational design. The best teams from each Bootcamp will have a unique opportunity to participate in local trainings organized by EIT Hubs in September and October, and develop concise business plans.
