Our news

NCSH has recieved funding from Nordic Innovation to target Nordic sustainable healthcare in this new project that will run for the next 1,5 year.

The project is conducted together with our partners Upgraded, a non-profit association for health & wellbeing startups and innovations in Finland, and DTU Business, a part of the Danish Technical University. The project consists of several Nordic and international events with the aim to bring Nordic knowledge on sustainable healthcare and smart healthtech solutions to a global market. The base of the project is funded by the Swedish Energy Agency, and this funding from Nordic Innovation will expand the project and add a Nordic perspective.

Part of the project are the following upcoming events:

• October 2nd 2019: This first event will be a high-level meeting in Helsinki hosted by Upgraded, which will bring together 100 most impactful people of the Nordic health scene. This will be the kick-off of the project. 
• The second event will take place in Montreal on October 15-17^th 2019. The event will take place with the participation of several Canadian hospitals. This is primarily an export event directed towards stakeholders looking for Nordic sustainable solutions in healthcare.
• Spring of 2020 a delegation will go to the Netherlands. Both NCSH and Upgraded has a huge network in the Netherlands and the interest for Nordic sustainable healthcare is high and growing. Specific dates will be set once the project starts.
• Late spring 2020 the Nordic Conference on Sustainable Healthcare at DTU will take place in Copenhagen. The Nordic Sustainable Healthcare awards will here be presented for the forth year.
• October 2020 a delegation to Yale University and Yale University Hospital in New Haven. Yale will also participate in Canada and invite a huge number of US- hospitals interested in sustainable healthcare. Dates will be set in June 2019. 
• October 2020 a high level meeting in Helsinki/other Nordic capital hosted by Upgraded will be a sum-up event and the end of the project.
