The European Commission appoints Taavi Madiberk to the European Innovation Council Board

Today the European Commission announced first members of the new European Innovation Council Board. Taavi Madiberk, CEO and co-founder of Skeleton Technologies, is one of the 20 leading innovators appointed to the board.

Under the Horizon Europe legislation, this Board has a powerful role to guide the implementation of the EIC as Europe’s flagship innovation programme with a budget of €10 billion, supporting game-changing innovations throughout the lifecycle from early-stage research to the financing and scale up of start-ups and SMEs. In particular, the Board will advise on the EIC strategy, work programme, and thematic portfolios in order to maximise the impact of the EIC and may also advise on broader innovation policy matters.

Mariya Gabriel, Commissioner for Research, Innovation, Culture, Education, and Youth, said:

“I welcome the appointment of twenty passionate innovators - entrepreneurs, investors and venture capitalists, corporate leaders, researchers, and academics. I am looking forward to meeting them at the EIC Summit next week and working with them to implement Europe’s most ambitious innovation programme.”

 Taavi Madiberk, CEO and co-founder of Skeleton Technologies, stated:

It is a great honor for me to have been appointed by the European Commission as a Board member of the EIC, Europe’s flagship initiative to support the commercialization of high-risk, high-impact technologies in the European Union. To compete in global markets and lead in the technologies and industries of the future, Europe needs to capitalise on its excellent research and start-up ecosystem. The EIC is set to become the largest deep technology investor in Europe and will make the continent enter the age of deep tech decacorns and hectocorns.

 The new EIC Board will take over from the previous EIC pilot Advisory Board that helped steer the initial strategy and implementation of the EIC.
