Access & Acceleration Platform
The aim of this cross-border innovation platform is to facilitate access for companies to university resources, hospitals, clinical staff and patients. Innovation is particularly important today as we face many constraints in our usual way of life and the healthcare sector in particular is under pressure. Therefore, we want to encourage people to connect and use their time and resources efficiently.
The partners in the Access & Acceleration project have looked at the innovation cycle from the idea phase, through testing and evaluation, to market launch. We have developed a platform for those who are looking for help to bring a medical device to the German or Danish market - or simply to develop a medical idea.
The platform can help you in many ways, e.g. with strategies, stakeholder connections, overviews and best practice examples. It allows you to network with others. For you as a company, we offer a collection of useful tips on how to advance your innovation activities in the German-Danish region.
