Role of EUREGHA: Regional stakeholders engagement

Total budget: € 1 495 046.67 EUREGHA budget: 96 674.49€

Starting Date: October 24          Duration: 24 months

The InnoMedCatalyst project is set to revolutionize the 5P medicine ecosystem by boosting the capabilities of various stakeholders to develop, test, and refine digital health solutions. The initiative aims to catalyze open innovation and bridge the gap between MedTech companies and healthcare providers, making Europe a global leader in precision and personalized medicine.

Key objectives include:

  • Mapping Regional Value Chains: We will analyze and visualize the ecosystem of current activities, processes, and stakeholders in 5P digital medicine, resulting in the creation of 10 regional maps that identify key players and their roles.
  • Enhancing Innovation Capacity: The project will facilitate over 25 collaborative activities, including cross-regional workshops, tailored training programs, twinnings, demo days, and learning missions aimed at improving healthcare systems and patient outcomes.
  • Creating an Innovation Ecosystem: By implementing dedicated acceleration and mentorship programs, InnoMedCatalyst will support 36 startups, spinoffs, and entrepreneurs in developing digital medicine solutions.
  • Fostering Open Innovation: Through an Open Innovation Network Platform, we will connect MedTech companies with healthcare providers, allowing for the “test before invest” of 5P medicine solutions, supported by two online B2B brokerage events.
  • Developing Interregional Investment Projects: By 2026, the project aims to generate at least 20 investment-ready projects in precision medicine.

The project is a collaborative effort with a strong focus on the regional level, involving several partners connected with the EUREGHA network: IMAGO-MOL (Associate Member), Clust-ER Emilia Romagna, BioCat Catalonia, and MedVia Flanders.
