ENRICH in the USA | ENRICH in the USA

Original description

The ENRICH in the USA project is the continuation of the 42-months long NearUS project (2017-2020), aiming to set up and pilot the European Network of Research and Innovation Centre and Hub in the USA. The objective of the ENRICH in the USA is to capitalise on the NearUS experience, to reinforce the Network and support innovation exchange and commercialization across the Atlantic by educating, preparing, mentoring, and supporting European Research and Innovation actors. ENRICH in the USA serves the needs of EU innovators by providing standardized services and offering soft-landing opportunities across the USA, including through sector-specific Landing Hubs, as such embedding them into welcoming and nurturing local ecosystems. The services are built around three pillars: Education, Connections and Soft-landing. Furthermore, ENRICH in the USA aims to be accessible to innovation stakeholders from all EU MS/AC, and to especially support “underserved” entrepreneurs in Europe, as such unlocking their hidden potential. The business plan of ENRICH in the USA envisages a sustainable path through growing revenues from the Network activity. ENRICH in the USA is building a brand in Europe and the US, providing a long-term asset and return on investment to the European Union.
