The stakeholder consultation for the Digi4Care project in Hungary took place last week, organized by our institute as a Lead Partner of the project in collaboration with Pilot 3 implementer, the Gottsegen György National Cardiovascular Institute. The event aimed to foster national dialogue and knowledge sharing, with representatives from all relevant sectors, including academia, clinical fields, industry, public institutions, and civil society, in attendance.
The event was opened by our Director, Dr. Miklós Szócska, who shared the Institute’s efforts in building a data-driven healthcare system, discussed the challenges faced in the sector, and framed the project’s goals within the current landscape.
Identifying and Testing Digital Health Technologies- a shared vision
The objective of the Digi4Care project is to identify and test innovative digital health technologies, while also formulating policy recommendations to overcome barriers hindering the uptake of digital technologies in healthcare. The event included presentations and pilot demonstrations, followed by an engaging discussion that provided valuable feedback for the continued success of the project.
Methodology in action
The consultations were guided by the quadruple helix concept, a framework – developed by the DHI Bulgaria – shapes the collaboration between partners and participating countries.
Synergy and dedication – collaboration across borders
Thanks to close collaboration and a shared commitment to implementing Digi4Care initiatives, Tünde Jurca, representing the University of Oradea, and Dr. Ákos Tiboldi, on behalf of the LBI, participated in the Hungarian stakeholder event, offering valuable insights into their respective pilot projects.
