About Us
We’re Securing Raw Materials & the EU’s Competitive Edge
Our mission is to foster growth and attractiveness for the European raw materials sector. Through radical innovation, new education models and strategic advisory, we’re developing raw materials into a major strength for Europe. In alignment with Critical Raw Materials Act, we’re focusing on three key areas to achieve success:
Closing Material Loops
Securing Raw Materials supply
Designing Materials Solutions
Regional Innovation Scheme
The EIT RawMaterials Regional Innovation Scheme (RIS) Hubs play a critical role in reducing regional innovation disparities and boosting innovation capacity in Europe’s raw materials sector. RIS Hubs act as local innovation and knowledge centers, connecting stakeholders across industry, academia, and government to drive sustainable resource management and strengthen the raw materials value chain. By providing access to EIT RawMaterials activities and tailored programmes, the RIS Hubs empower moderate and emerging innovators to participate in cutting-edge projects, access funding, and build strategic partnerships. Through this network, the EIT RawMaterials RIS initiative fosters regional economic growth while advancing Europe’s transition to a circular and sustainable economy.
