The European Commission launched the first initiative of the Digital Single Market package. One of the more important pillars of this initiative is to develop a network of Digital Innovation Hubs (DIH). In this way, DIHs are one-stop-shops that help companies to become more competitive with regard to their business and production processes, products or services using digital technologies.

DIHs have the mission of helping companies (mainly start-ups, SMEs and mid-caps) to better understand and experiment on how digital technologies can improve their efficiency, effectiveness and product quality – in other words, their competitiveness.

In recent decades, health-related activities have evolved from a reactive approach (curing diseases) to an approach based on the P4 medicine paradigm: Predictive, Preventive, Personalised and Participatory. In this new paradigm, the use of digital technologies is key.

DIHsP4_MEDICINE project aims to unleash the potential that exists around the collaboration among DIHs focused in health-related activities. The lessons to be learned from the activities carried out within the framework of the project will make possible to take advantage this experience for the implementation of joint long-term and stable programmes to fostering collaboration among DIHs, as well as exploring the opportunity to articulate stable Hub corridors to shape these collaborations.
