about
the project

The project offers a model for co-created, demand-driven technological solutions in health care by creating optimal value-chains. It provides a framework in which innovations do not arise from technological vacuum and therefore have a short lifespan.

From the very start it includes all stakeholders within health care ecosystem, based on their active participation. Optimizing applicability of innovation for end users, connecting European Mirror regions and IT/digital solution companies this project ensures that all the parties are benefiting, with the aim to create user-friendly and timely access to healthcare.

It directs future innovations to the point where investments are maximally utilized and ready for further commercialization. Furthermore, it aims to create a sustainable community of practice in EU regions which will sustain value-chain model on the long term.

A STRONG
EUROPEAN DIMENSION

Technological and digital solutions rely on experiences and verified good practices of five European local health care ecosystems in Croatia, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia and Spain).

The multinational objective is the creation of a sustainable community of practice within EU with the solutions being resistant to possible various backgrounds, different approaches, cross-sectoral networks and other specifics within certain local ecosystems. It suggests effective and efficient organizational cross-border modifications and emphasizes the need for multinational collaborations.

AN ECOSYSTEM,
A COMMUNITY
OF PRACTICE

Our community connects more than 200 EU regional ecosystems. We will select 20 + Mirror Regions, which will be involved in group and individual training in order to achieve the most efficient transfer of know-how and model adaptation to their local environment. Community of practice is a living and permeable organism, with constant exchange of knowledge and information amongst them and their environment.
