Nurturing Innovation Through Intellectual Property and Knowledge Transfer
Lebanon Innovate is a 42-month program funded by the European Union to revitalize the Lebanese entrepreneurial ecosystem and productive sectors. Guided by an innovation roadmap, the program fosters innovation through supporting Intellectual Property (IP) and knowledge transfer, paving the way for Lebanon to become a knowledge-driven digital nation at the forefront of innovation.

Lebanon Innovate strengthens the national innovation ecosystem by enhancing the competitiveness of key sectors: agrifood, healthcare, and ICT. It builds the capacity of stakeholders to generate and commercialize knowledge, fosters partnerships between academia and industry, and creates linkages with European partners and diaspora networks to expand into international markets.
