Join the process towards the 'Baltic Sea Region as one test site for development of health care products and services'

A process has in 2014 been initiated aiming for the 'Baltic Sea Region as one test site for development of health care products and services'. If successful this is a huge benefit for SMEs which faster and easier can bring their innovations to the market and it improves the health care offered to patients. For the regions it means more efficient use of existing research and innovation infrastructure and economic development. Read more http://scanbalt.org/press/news%20archive/view?id=3288
