SHIFT-HUB aims at establishing a pan-European Smart Health Innovation Hub, to foster the uptake of Smart Health technologies and services. A strong patient-centric community will be developed to enhance digital literacy and behavioural change.

The project will develop and test with the community a comprehensive service offer, integrating networking and matchmaking, and guidance for accessing funding.

A pool of 100 high-potential Smart Health applications, evaluated during 5 Living Lab events, and of 1500 online users – linked to at least 50 healthcare organisations for further adoption – will be identified and supported.

What's new in the project?

The European Union funded SHIFT-HUB with EUR 2 million under the Horizon Europe scheme to establish a pan-European Smart Innovation Hub paving the way towards the future federated European Health Data Space.

SHIFT-HUB shows to be innovative and effective thanks to:

The Living Lab methodology and an online gamification based e-learning journey ensuring an immersive experience for patients and citizens;
An Open innovation approach to foster a collaborative ecosystem of multidisciplinary stakeholders;
A technical platform pilot including a Health Data Hub, a Smart Health Apps Repository and an online Marketplace.
