EIT Health
KTH is a core partner in EIT Health which seeks to address three key challenges:
- To promote healthy living by increasing awareness of good habits and encouraging changes in our behaviour
- To support active ageing by developing tools to help all of us work more flexibly and live longer in our own homes
- To improve healthcare through innovations that empower patients
EIT Health programmes bring together the three sides of the knowledge triangle – education, research and innovative business creation. The business plan for 2021 is also the "calls" document (deadline 25 March, 2020):
