Digivitality healthcare knowledge portal
The health sector is digitalising fast. Innovative solutions are being developed, but their market entry or broader application often fails due to structural shortcomings. The DIGIVITALITY project helps health care innovations to enter the health care market faster and to scale up more easily. To do so, the partnership has developed a blueprint for smoother collaboration among start-ups, med-techs, hospitals and innovation hubs, which is challenge-driven and based on open innovation. This Knowledge Portal will guide you through the experiences gained during the project.

Playbook
The DIGIVITALITY Digital Health Innovation Playbook is a practical guide designed to support key stakeholders in building and scaling digital health ecosystems, particularly across Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).
This playbook presents clear, ready-to-use frameworks and tools for developing, validating, and integrating digital health solutions into healthcare systems. It is based on cross-border collaboration models and showcases actionable steps to accelerate the adoption of digital innovation.
Rooted in real-world experience from the DIGIVITALITY project, besides focusing on the essential aspects and milestones of setting up and developing a supporting framework to innovation, it offers strategies to overcome challenges such as regulatory barriers, limited funding, fragmented infrastructure, and difficulties in stakeholder collaboration.
