Our Ambition
EIT Manufacturing is an Innovation Community within the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) – that connects the leading manufacturing actors in Europe. Fueled by a strong interdisciplinary and trusted community, we will add unique value to European products, processes, services – and inspire the creation of globally competitive and sustainable manufacturing.
The manufacturing industry is a global base for prosperity and key to Europe’s economic, social and environmental sustainability. Manufacturing is a main driver of industrial innovation, job creation and growth for the European society. It stands for over 2.1 million manufacturing enterprises in Europe, providing over 32 million jobs, which corresponds to 16% of the total EU working population, including approximately 13 million jobs in the growing high-tech manufacturing industry and in 2016, the share of EU-28 GDP originated by manufacturing was 16.1% (Eurostat, GDP percentage of total, industry breakdowns, 10.01.2018), corresponding to a total turnover of EUR 7.11 trillion (European Commission, Factories of the Future Manufacturing in Horizon 2020 and beyond, 2017).
EIT Manufacturing will establish an innovation community and build a network of ecosystems where people can acquire skills and find opportunities; and where innovators are able to attract investors and accede venture capital.
For that purpose, EIT Manufacturing brings together 60 European leading partners from business, education and research, from 17 countries.

Our Programmes
We are currently experiencing the fourth industrial revolution, which brings us new challenges and opportunities. EIT Manufacturing’s aim is not only to adapt to this global revolution, but to lead it. To do so, it will deliver nine powerful programmes that cover the Knowledge Triangle — Education, Innovation and Business Creation — for Added-Value Manufacturing:
• Education: “Empower”, “Connect” and “Engage” talents and workforce
• Innovation: “Launch”, “Develop” and “Grow” innovations
• Business Creation: “Create”, “Accelerate” and “Transform” businesses
The programmes will address these challenges in a unique way:
1. Adapt to exponential technological progress. Success is no longer determined by a narrow technology focus, but by a clear vision and the capacity to adapt.
2. Make manufacturing a powerhouse for social impact.
3. Overcome value network fragmentation in Europe.
4. Transform knowledge into value more efficiently.

EIT Community
The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) is an independent EU body set up to empower innovators to turn their best ideas into products, services and jobs for Europe. It was created in 2008 to drive Europe’s ability to innovate. As an integral part of Horizon2020, the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation 2014-2020, it is a unique EU initiative, the only that fully integrates business, education and research. The Institute supports the development of dynamic pan-European partnerships among leading universities, research labs and companies – the Innovation Communities. Each one focuses on a specific global challenge and, so far, eight of them have been created by the EIT addressing the areas of climate, digital, health, energy, food, raw materials, manufacturing and urban mobility.
