This year a total of 36 teams from all over Europe showcased their budding start-ups in front of a jury of experts and potential investors, competing for a prize pool of 160,000 euros. The flagship programme of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), EIT Jumpstarter is a pre-accelerator programme led by EIT Health and involving other EIT Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs) with the goal of boosting innovation and entrepreneurship in Central, Eastern and Southern Europe.

In this episode, Balázs Fürjes speaks with Dora Marosvolgyi, EIT Jumpstarter mentor and project manager at EIT Health InnoStars, about the value the programme gives to your entrepreneurs and the innovation it creates.
