EIT Health is a Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC) established by the European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT).

The goal of EIT Health is to contribute to strengthen healthcare systems in Europe, improve the quality of life of Europe’s citizens and contribute to a sustainable health economy. The focus is on training the workforce of tomorrow, and overcoming fragmentation of the healthcare sector in Europe.

EIT Health connects all relevant healthcare players across European borders – making sure to include all sides of the “knowledge triangle”, so that innovation can happen at the intersection of research, education and business for the benefit of citizens.
