The New European Bauhaus (NEB) is a visionary EU-backed initiative inviting all Europeans to create a future grounded in sustainability, inclusivity, and aesthetics. The NEB movement, supported by partners like EIT Food, EIT Manufacturing, EIT Urban Mobility, and led by EIT Climate-KIC, focuses on bringing these values to life through practical projects.

Catalyse NEB: A Step Towards Positive Change

In a world where profit often trumps societal benefit, the Catalyse NEB startup accelerator programme is a refreshing change. Launched last week in Leuven, Belgium, this programme features a remarkable group of 28 funded start-ups. These start-ups are not only aiming for economic success but also prioritizing societal well-being.

Core Principles and Support

Catalyse NEB places great importance on nurturing start-ups that align with its principles. This means recognizing the beauty in innovation, making it accessible and engaging for everyone. Each of the 28 start-ups will receive support services worth EUR 50,000, including:

  • Programme-specific training based on NEB principles
  • Leadership coaching and business mentoring
  • Access to an innovation community

A Year of Growth and Opportunities

The year-long acceleration programme is packed with opportunities for learning and collaboration. Key highlights include:

  • Climate impact forecasting

This expo will provide the cohort with a global platform to display their work, enhancing their visibility and impact.
