DiGinnovation: Supporting digital health start-ups on their way to reimbursement

Are you wondering how to get your digital health app reimbursed in Europe?

The EIT Health DiGinnovation Programme aims to ease the reimbursement pathway and accelerate the uptake of digital health apps by healthcare professionals and patients.

The programme pairs start-ups that have a CE-marked digital health app with exclusive partners from EIT Health’s network and beyond. After forming an international consortium, start-ups receive tailored support, the opportunity to pitch in front of industry titans, and the unique chance to receive funding for their projects.

Applications to DiGinnovation are currently closed. Be the first to know about upcoming programmes and opportunities that may be a good fit for you by joining our mailing list.
