We are part of a Digivitality project!

Digivitality is our new international project financed through Interreg Central Europe scheme, focused on digitalization of healthcare industry within CEE region.

It is taking advantage of the similarities of CEE countries in terms of innovation ecosystem maturity, market and regulatory environments. Project will establish a transnational space for joint learning, challenge definition, innovation scouting, matchmaking, validation and policy improvement process. The practical goal of this project is to develop and run an challenge-driven, open innovation acceleration program supporting product development, business case development, medical-clinical feasibility validation,  economic assessment and scale-up of selected health technologies. The learnings of this program shall be summarized in Digital Health Innovation Playbook, one of key outputs of this project.

Besides, Digivitality also fosters the development of public financing options for digital innovations, inspired by the German DiGA scheme. This is the area where SAPIE will contribute the most by performing status analysis, running stakeholder workshops and proposing policy improvements, leading to formulating a Joint strategy for the uptake of digital solutions into public healtcare system.

Project will be based on collaboration between various kinds of partners: innovations hubs, consultancies, research institutions and hospitals from Slovakia, Poland, Slovenia, Czech Republic and Hungary will cooperate to transform the health landscape of CEE region. In mid Septeber, we participated on a project Kick-Off meeting in Prague with all partners on board, where managerial as well as expert aspects were discussed and next steps agreed. We are looking forward to this very impactful collaboration!
