European Inventors Week

European Inventors Week celebrates Europe as a driver of invention, innovation and prosperity (…)

In the week of the 7th to the 13th of November, every individual or organisation in Europe, is invited to join inventors, scientists and young people in a conversation on  Europe’s inventiveness and how to encourage the next generation to become the inventors of tomorrow.’ [i]

The Programme of the European Inventors Week

‘During the official European Inventors Week, several events will be held in the European Parliament in Brussels.

The on-site programme will feature a wide range of activities such as exhibitions, roundtable discussions and interviews with inventors, experts and many others.

Social Innovation Academy is the first fully online management training programme focusing exclusively on social innovation.

Why Social Innovation Academy? Social innovation has increasingly come to be perceived as the answer to the rising number of European societal challenges. While the European authorities, leading academics, policy experts, business people and activists agree that social innovation is the key to a better future for Europe and the world, it is extremely difficult for professionals to obtain high-quality training on what social innovation actually offers and, more importantly, how it can be done in practice.

The Social Innovation Academy is aiming to change this situation in Europe and beyond. If you are interested in keeping up with this project, you can subscribe to our newsletter, become one of our friends or follow us on social media (LinkedInTwitter and Facebook). We welcome all requests for collaboration here.
