Learn how to be part of IHI's first projects, and find the best partners for your consortium.
The Innovative Health Initiative (IHI) will launch its first calls for proposals in June 2022. The aim of this event is to provide potential applicants with the information they need to put together a strong proposal, and give them the opportunity to identify and meet partners for their consortia.
Info session
The first part of the morning is a classic info session. It will cover the topics of the first calls, the call conditions and rules for participation, and opportunities for SMEs. The session includes time for questions. In addition, IHI staff will be on site throughout the event to answer further questions from participants.
Who should participate
Any organisation eligible to participate in IHI calls for proposals! This includes (but isn’t limited to) large companies in the pharmaceutical, medical device, digital, and biotech sectors; small and medium-sized companies (SMEs); mid-sized companies; universities; patient organisations; medicines regulators; health technology assessment (HTA) bodies; payers, and more
Registration is obligatory
To submit a proposal for an IHI call, you need to be part of a consortium. That’s why the second half of the morning and the afternoon are dedicated to networking via one-on-one brokerage meetings and pitching sessions. The coffee and lunch breaks also represent good opportunities for more informal networking:
Brokerage meetings:
Using the b2match tools, both on-site and remote participants will be able to set up one-on-one meetings with other participants. Register via the Register button, create your participant profile and set up a marketplace for your idea
Pitching sessions:
During the pitching sessions, participants will have the opportunity to showcase themselves as potential consortium coordinators or partners during a three minute pitch on the stage
