VLC-Health Ecosystem

Health and social care provision in our environment is facing an unprecedented challenge due to population ageing, with an increasing demand for services that entails a strong financial pressure. Facing this situation, the creation of eHealth Ecosystems is being fostered in the framework of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP-AHA), an initiative of the European Commission comprising the entire value chain of research and innovation to better integrate and coordinate all actors at all levels: European, national, regional and local levels, and achieve a critical mass that helps to create innovative solutions to face up to the progressive ageing of European population.
