EIT Alumni CONNECT is the annual meetup of the wider community. Over 130 Alumni from the EIT’s Innovation Communities come together to connect, build partnerships, co-create on projects and work together to build and develop the EIT Alumni Community.

2019 marked the fifth installment of the event. Taking place on 14 October in Budapest, EIT Alumni CONNECT ’19 brought once again together alumni from EIT Health, EIT Digital, EIT InnoEnergy, EIT Climate-KIC, and EIT RawMaterials.

The event was themed around the UN SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and how the EIT Community can contribute to their progression. It was decided to focus on UN SDG 11. ‘Sustainable Cities and Communities’. Given the diverse nature of the EIT community and their expertise in different fields, it was a theme which all five communities of the EIT Alumni network could approach in their own way to tackle this goal in a unique and multi-disciplinary manner.
