Healthsector funds factsheet highlights EU priorities

On 18 July, the European Commission published a factsheet on the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) – Mobilising funds for the health sector. While the EU health sector is a very broad topic, the factsheet provides us with information about the priorities of the European Commission.

Namely, the EFSI will support investment projects mostly in the following areas, recognising the importance of infrastructure investments but also the role of innovation in health systems, research and medical education:

  • Medical research
  • Innovative products, services and delivery solutions (including by SMEs, mid-caps and start-ups)
  • New models of health infrastructure especially for primary and integrated forms of care • New technologies and e-health
  • Medical education and training

More information about the EU investment plan can be found here and about EU public health here.
