About

The soft-landing programme is a key component of the Lebanon Innovate Capacity Building initiative, aiming to enhance the skills and expertise of innovation intermediaries in Lebanon, bringing them to an expert level through a variety of support measures. Selected universities, business support organisations, and research institutes from Lebanon will be invited to participate in EBN Techcamp or EBN Congress 2025.

The soft-landing programme is a crucial approach for facilitating practical knowledge transfer between EU|BIC members and Lebanese innovation actors. It will provide a platform for Lebanese institutions to gain and share practical experience in establishing and maintaining sustainable, long-term relationships with European business incubators. Additionally, the initiative aims to scout international connections for both the Lebanese participants and their client organizations. This programme offers a valuable opportunity not only for Lebanese partners but also for European incubators, whose team members will gain deep insights into the innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystems in Lebanon through peer-to-peer exchanges.
