EU Citizens' Kickathon

Cel

"Europe's persistent gap between scientific excellence and innovation performance demands urgent, systemic action. Despite world-class research, the EU's innovation output continues to decline marginally, compounded by deep geographic fragmentation across Member States.
The EU Citizens' Kickathon is a pan-European Horizon Europe initiative (2026–2030) delivering three annual championship editions (2027–2029) that mobilise citizens and researchers to co-create science-based solutions to citizen-defined challenges. Grounded in the Council Recommendation on Knowledge Valorisation, the Draghi Report, and Letta's ""Fifth Freedom"" concept, the project operationalises the EC's 2024 Codes of Practice on citizen engagement and industry-academia co-creation.
Each edition follows a three-phase Entrepreneurial Journey — Sunrise (team formation across 15 Hub Cities), Championship (15 regional Kickathons culminating in a European Final), and Kickstart (sustained valorisation support for all teams). Finals are hosted by the Axis of Innovation cities: Lisbon (2027), Leuven (2028), and Linköping (2029), representing deliberately diverse positions on the European Innovation Scoreboard.
Seven SMART objectives drive the programme: accelerating knowledge valorisation; delivering high-quality annual competitions; building entrepreneurship capacity; supporting market uptake; engaging diverse stakeholders; ensuring geographic, gender, and socioeconomic inclusion; and operating kickathon.eu as the project's digital backbone.
The closing event in Leuven in 2030 aligns with the city's European Capital of Culture programme, consolidating valorisation outcomes across all three cohorts."
