About I3HIES
Europe has long been a center of excellence for quality healthcare and continues to have the potential to be a global center for healthcare research and development.
To achieve this, a long-term, cooperative, interregional ecosystem must be built that supports and promotes R&D and stable, long-term partnerships.
The project identifies needs and challenges in key thematic areas such as genome-related issues, biomaterials and clinical trials, particularly in relation to MDR compliance.
The project aims to establish value chains and collaborations that bring together expertise in clinical testing, validation, innovation in design, materials and regulatory compliance.
It aims to improve interregional cooperation and participation in EU value chains.
This includes strengthening the regional and interregional ecosystem, benchmarking the I3HIES community and promoting policy development and collaboration.
Project goals
- Building a community by optimizing the business climate for competitive ecosystems
- Involvement of active intermediaries to promote innovation
- Identify value chains and investment pipelines related to the I3 instrument through mapping and benchmarking
Our aim is to increase the capacity of companies to participate in I3 instrument projects, identify competitive regional products and services and create value chain connections at interregional and EU levels.
