This video was recorded at Cloud Assisted Services in Europe (CLASS) Conference, Bled 2012 . The overall objective of EIT is to establish a new, radically more responsive configuration of how Education, Research, and Business work together to create significant innovations. EIT builds on top of already existing instruments and uses its own resources to catalyse systemic and lasting changes in the Knowledge Triangle encompassing Education-Research-Business. EIT ICT Labs implements this by adopting and applying the catalyst-carrier model in focused Action Lines addressing selected societal challenges and driven by their needs and opportunities. The educational catalysts focus on robust entrepreneurship education to empower students and integrate them to innovation ecosystems. Through research catalysts for experimental and living labs, we embrace the users and engage them with our research. The business catalysts give hands-on and timely help to new ventures or entrepreneurs in large companies.
