ELIS Innovation Summit 2026: Scaling Impact Together
Where Europe moves from innovation to impact.
The challenges facing our society in vitality, healthy living, and sport have never been greater. Our population is growing, getting older, and changing fast. Many people struggle to stay active, healthcare systems are under pressure, and cities need smarter ways to support healthy living. Small improvements won’t solve these issues anymore. We need fresh thinking, strong partnerships and innovations that can make a real difference in everyday life.
The ELIS Innovation Summit brings together the people who can make that happen. For two full days, innovators, entrepreneurs, researchers, investors and policymakers meet in Eindhoven and the Brainport Region, one of Europe’s strongest innovation hubs. Together, they explore new ideas, share practical solutions, and look at technologies that can help Europe become healthier and more active.
This summit is for anyone who wants to move beyond talking and start building. It’s a place to learn, connect, test ideas, and discoveropportunities to grow. Whether you’re developing a new product, shaping policy, investing in innovation or working in an ecosystem, you’ll find people here who can help you take the next step.
Are you ready to scale your impact and shape a healthier future?
Europe has plenty of great ideas. What’s missing is a clear path to test them, fund them, and scale them. Many promising innovations never make it past the pilot stage. Especially in healthy living, vitality and sport, where the need is growing every day. We can’t solve today’s challenges alone. We need ecosystems that work together.
Across two inspiring days, you will explore new ideas, join hands‑on sessions, build partnerships and see technologies that are shaping the future of vitality and sport. Healthy Active Living is one of Europe’s fastest growing markets and one of its biggest opportunities.
