We support the evolution of healthcare innovation through public procurement by bridging the gaps between healthcare providers and innovative suppliers, that hinder progress in defining, implementing, and adopting innovative solutions within the healthcare ecosystem.
InnoHSupport is an EU-funded project aimed at enhancing innovation in healthcare through the strategic use of public procurement. The capacity building, advisory, and matchmaking services address key barriers to innovation and promote the adoption of cutting-edge solutions across healthcare systems in Europe.
Capacity-building and advisory services provide procurers’ teams with new skills to unlock the potential of innovation procurement, transforming healthcare needs into opportunities. Matchmaking services connect procurers with suppliers—particularly SMEs, startups, and supporting organizations such as innovation funders, associations, entrepreneurship support entities, and scientific and knowledge providers.
We offer a comprehensive portfolio of services for procurers, public and private health organisations, SMEs and startups, research and technological organisations, innovation agencies, and other entities—such as investors—who are responsible for advancing innovation procurement.
