European Commission - Brussels - September 2016


Europe urges more innovators to stay competitive in the coming decades and to spur economic growth. Awards have a strong potential to drive innovation through the recognition of achievements and the promotion of role models. Therefore, European Commission launches EU Prize for Women Innovators 2017 competition, which awards female entrepreneurs who have successfully brought an innovation to market.

The aim is to increase awareness on the importance of the innovation and to encourage women to exploit the commercial and business opportunities and become entrepreneurs. This year's edition is open to women of any nationality living in a European country that have founded or co-founded a company with a turnover of at least €100,000. To spotlight a new generation, the 2017 edition will also feature a Rising Innovator category for female entrepreneurs under 35 years old.
