Support for bringing AI solutions to the market
In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are transforming diagnostics, treatment, and patient care. However, the journey from prototype to clinical practice can feel like navigating a maze of regulatory, technical, and financial barriers.
This event is arranged by TEF-Health together with Health Data Sweden. Both organisations are initiatives within the European Commission programs for a digital Europe (DIGITAL), with co-funding from Vinnova. The event is also supported by KI Science Park and KI Innovations.
