Digital transformation for university-born, high-impact innovation and entrepreneurship

The primary aim of the DIGIMPACT.EU project is to enhance the capability of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to foster innovation and entrepreneurship through digital transformation. The project seeks to create a significant societal impact in sectors such as agriculture, urban mobility, emergency response and digital inclusive empowerment focusing on migrant entrepreneurship and public health services. The impact is generated by HEIs working with Associate Partners (founders, early-stage start-ups, ministries, start-ups services, businesses etc.) in each selected impact area. The project is aligned with Strand A of the EIT HEI Call 4, which focuses on building innovation and entrepreneurship capacity within HEIs, developing partnerships between HEIs, public administrations, businesses and social enterprises, and fostering institutional change through such partnerships. The partnerships will enhance knowledge exchange and drive the joint development of high-quality educational programs in innovation and entrepreneurship, focusing on each impact area. The courses will be adapted and updated throughout the project, ensuring continuous improvement of the content and methods. The project will also build new tools and services to support innovation and entrepreneurship, including ideation, business plans creation, good practice repositories, etc.
