The ”Water-KIC” (Knowledge and Innovation Community) partner meeting will take place from 25th until 26th March 2025 at the Einstein Center Digital Future (ECDF). ECDF board member Andrea Cominola, Professor of “Smart Water Networks” at Technische Universität Berlin, is co-organizer of the workshop.

In January 2025, the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) published a call for proposals for a “Knowledge and Innovation Community” (KIC) on the topic of water, marine, maritime sectors, and ecosystems. The KIC aims to create a Europe-wide alliance bringing together industry leaders, research centers and universities to drive innovation in the water, marine, and maritime sectors. The INNFLOW consortium, which is coordinated from Valencia with Technische Universität Berlin as a key partner, is currently preparing to apply for a Water-KIC. INNFLOW partners from all over Europe will meet at the ECDF from 25thuntil 26th March for a workshop to discuss key aspects of the proposal and to consolidate their network.

Key points of the workshop:

  • Interactive two-day workshop

  • The aim is to prepare a joint proposal for a “Water-KIC”
