EUROSCAN INTERNATIONAL NETWORK | INTERNATIONAL HEALTHTECHSCAN
Scanning the horizon of health technologies.
A global network of public organisations and individual experts conducts horizon scanning for early awareness in health. Our network connects, promotes knowledge exchange and capacity building and strengthens work to support local decisions.
OUR CORE ACTIVITIES AS A NETWORK
What We Do
Our members provide specialised services based on their local mandates to support regional decision makers. This creates a complementary picture of knowledge, skills and experiences. Our network facilitates global exchange of this opportunities, benefiting decision makers worldwide health and healthcare sustainability.
Horzion Scanning – Innovations
Systematically identifying emerging technologies and trends in health years before people and society are exposed to them.
Horizon Scanning – Reassessment
Systematic monitoring of technologies that have already been implemented to support their reassessment once they have been introduced to markets and healthcare systems.
Knowledge Exchange
Providing common access to data, publications, experiences and best practices foster a shared understanding and avoids duplication of effort across member organisations.
Capacity Building
Offering training and education through workshops, virtual courses and collaborative working groups, to build common understanding of terminology and methods.
Early Dialogue, Early Advice and Preparation for Scientific Advice
Connecting innovators with needs in health and other policies – as early as possible.
