Invitation to EIC ACCESS+ Peer-Learning Workshop #2: Bridging the gap between EIC Ecosystem Partners and innovators 

Online, 24 June 2025 | 11:00 – 13:00 CEST

The EIC ACCESS+ initiative announces its second Peer-Learning Workshop, taking place online on 24 June 2025, from 11:00 to 13:00 CEST. The event is designed for EIC beneficiaries, Seal of Excellence holders, and EIC Ecosystem Partners, aiming to improve the alignment of specialised services available via the EIC Service Catalogue with the concrete needs of Europe’s deep-tech innovators.

Following valuable insights gathered during the EIC ACCESS+ Peer-Learning Workshop #1 during EIC Partners Day 2025, this session will foster direct dialogue between service providers and EIC-funded innovators. Participants will collaboratively address the visibility and accessibility of critical services essential for innovation scaling.

Workshop aims to:

• Identify and prioritise critical service needs for EIC beneficiaries
• Explore strategic “educational marketing” as a means to enhance service visibility and foster trust
• Create effective communication strategies to clearly articulate service benefits
• Foster community-driven trust-building and networking

The workshop will combine brief, insightful presentations with structured small-group discussions. Each group will tackle specific thematic challenges, facilitated by rapporteurs who will summarise key findings to share collective outcomes.

Who Should Attend:

• EIC beneficiaries and Seal of Excellence holders seeking targeted, strategic support
• EIC Ecosystem Partners aiming to closely align their services with innovation requirements of startups and SMEs
• Prospective service providers interested in becoming part of the EIC Ecosystem Partnership and being featured in the EIC Service Catalogue
