This grant aims to fund pre-competitive research and innovation for novel tools, methods, and technologies to foster the development of people-centred, integrated healthcare solutions. The goal is to support innovations that help prevent, intercept, diagnose, treat, and manage diseases more efficiently, facilitating recovery, and to address public health needs. Actions funded will advance implementation of integrated healthcare solutions (including digital ones), promote collaboration among healthcare stakeholders (patients, citizens, industry), and foster safer, more effective, affordable, and sustainable health innovations. The initiative targets strengthening the EU health industry's competitiveness and aligns with EU strategies and policies (e.g., European Green Deal, Cancer Mission, AI Strategy, European Health Data Space).
