We are delighted to announce that M6 Educational Centre is a partner in INNO-STEM BRIDGE,
a project awarded by the @EIT Higher Education Initiative as part of the Call for Proposals
2025.
INNO-STEM BRIDGE — Building Sustainable Innovation Ecosystems and Fostering Deep Tech
Entrepreneurial Talents in STEM — will help partner universities move STEM talent and
research closer to real market and societal value.
The project builds a Lab-to-Market pathway that connects STEM education, challenge-based
co-creation, prototyping and validation, deep-tech acceleration, technology transfer, and market
uptake. This support gives our consortium the resources and access to the wider EIT HEI
community needed to strengthen innovation capacity across higher education institutions and
their ecosystems.
The INNO-STEM BRIDGE consortium brings together partners from academia, innovation
support, industry collaboration, and ecosystem development:
• Zhytomyr Polytechnic State University, Ukraine
• Amplifiers, Ukraine
• Chernihiv Polytechnic National University, Ukraine
• Ukrainian Catholic University, Ukraine
• KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden
• Eskişehir Osmangazi University, Türkiye
• Foundation “Prof. Dr. Dimitar Stamboliev”, North Macedonia
• M6 Educational Centre, North Macedonia
Together, we will work on practical mechanisms that universities need to turn knowledge into
validated solutions: entrepreneurship and IP learning for STEM students and staff, real industry
and public-sector challenges, acceleration for promising teams, TTO/KTO professionalisation,
and stronger cross-border partnerships.
We are pleased to join the EIT Higher Education Initiative community and contribute to a
European network that sees universities not only as places of education and research, but as
active engines of innovation, entrepreneurship, and regional development.
More updates will follow as we launch the first activities with our consortium partners.
