ABOUT

The EHS Task Force has been set up due to the considerable success with the launching of the European Health Summit last December in 2020. This platform has been designed to drive policy in the domain of health, aside from organizing high-level annual events.
The aim is not only to create a larger healthcare network and provide visibility, but also to be able to steer the process of policy making at the European level and strengthen the link between public and private partnership through the involvement of cross-sectorial stakeholders.

A PHARMA STRATEGY FOR RARE AND NON-COMMUNICABLE DISEASES?

The revision of the EU’s Pharma Strategy offers a once in a generation opportunity to highlight to current shortcomings and opportunities in EU health policy when it comes to rare and non-communicable diseases (cardiovascular disease, diabetes etc.). Given the nature of public-private partnerships in the healthcare landscape, listening to the voices of industry is a key factor when it comes to fostering innovation and translating this into improved patient outcomes.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE EUROPEAN HEALTH DATA SPACE

AI offers unprecedented opportunities for healthcare, such as reduced costs, increased automation and rapid data processing. On the other hand, questions of data privacy, bias and vulnerabilities may also increase health inequalities. As the EU moves towards the implementation of the EHDS, engaging with stakeholders and ensuring that opportunities can be properly harnessed will be essential for its success.

AN INNOVATIVE AND COMPETITIVE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRIAL POLICY FOR EUROPE

As the EU struggles to attract and maintain R&D and investments in the healthcare sector coupled with strategic vulnerabilities in supply chains, the need to develop home-grown and innovative treatments has never been more apparent. Reducing IP and regulatory hurdles in the EU, along with incentivizing investment, infrastructure and skills will be vital to cultivate a competitive healthcare ecosystem.
