Best Open Innovation Practice

Building a large interdisciplinary ecosystem in healthcare

Building successful ecosystems in healthcare is challenging due to the vast stakeholder landscape, different interests, and technologies. Using our experience based best practice approach we achieved strong & financial commitment of 80 stakeholders within one year to kickstart the Medvia cluster organisation on a mission to foster open innovation. In the first 6 months of operation, the ecosystem crystallised 32 project consortia of which 14 are funded.

In the award winning presentation we focus on the process how the ecosystem was built and how we overcame the four most important hurdles.
