Czech Innovation Festival

Which country is home to two of five world's biggest antivirus software companies? Which is the only country in the EU where a local search engine is more successful than Google? Where does the word robot come from? The Czech Innovation Festival (CIF) is the Czech Republic's showcase in the field of science, research and innovation. It is organised by the Czech centre Berlin and the Czech Embassy in Germany. The CIF focuses on innovations in the range of ICT, internet, mobile apps, digitalisation and industry 4.0. Main partners are the Czech Institute of Informatics, Robotics and Cybernetics at the Technical University Prague (CIIRC) and the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic (TA ČR), who will present a brand new support programme for Czech-German projects at the CIF, and on the German side for example Berlin Partner for Business and Technology. German and Czech partners will discuss different topics from the field. On the second day of the CIF we invite you to a pitch of Czech digital start-ups that already achieved their first breakthroughs (in the Czech Republic and elsewhere).
