As the concluding peace of the DigitalHealthEurope project (DHE), which comes to an end in September 2021, a DHE Summit is organised to bring together EU policymakers, funders, digital health experts and other health stakeholders for forward-looking debates on digital transformation in the healthcare sector. The Summit will focus on real-life transformations through digital health (Day 1), empowering citizens through health data (Day 2) and scaling up innovation through health data (Day 3). The organiser, DigitalHealthEurope, is an EU-funded project (Horizon 2020 funding) with as main objective the deployment of digital solutions for person-centred integrated care.

The Falling Walls Lab Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) is a pitch competition organised by the European Commission in cooperation with the Falling Walls Lab. 15 selected MSCA fellows will present – in 3 minutes each – their research topic, innovative project, social initiative, business model, or idea through a video pitch to peers, a jury made up of experts from academia and business, and the general public. The Falling Walls Lab MSCA competition will take place online-only on 30 September 2021. Before the competition, participants will take part in coaching sessions to practise their communication and storytelling skills, get tips for video presentations and speeches and receive personalised advice from a professional coach. Competitors will be assisted to record a professional video pitch. The Falling Walls Lab MSCA will nominate three finalists plus there is an audience prize. All finalists will get a prize. The call for applications is currently open for ongoing MSCA fellows at the application deadline 4 July 2021.
