Technology Transfer of Advanced Medical Information Technologies
Starting date: 
01/07/2002
End date: 
31/03/2004

The project aims at promoting the dissemination and transfer of the technology developed at 11 European IST activities funded under the EUTIST-M IST-1999-20226 initiative. These activities have been clustered and results are being achieved successfully. The proposal aims at maximising the synergies among the activities and providing them with experience, assessment and means for performing Europeanwide dissemination of the advanced information technologies developed in the activities, aiming at transferring this technology to the medical sector.

General notes: 

The dissemination will be performed by means of press campaign, demonstration events and participation to major industrial exhibitions. Marketing assessment will be provided to maximise the outcome of the dissemination campaign. Technology transfer will be assisted by the definition and follow-on of Technology Implementation Plans.

The European Take-up of Essential Society Technologies in Medicine (EUTIST-M) cluster of projects was approved for funding under the IV.2.2 Action line and started on 1/11/2000.The objective of this proposal is to coordinate and to foster the promotion, dissemination and transfer of information society technologies in the field of the medical applications. The activities within EUTIST-M cluster will end up with ten prototypes and one best practice, along with electronic-based dissemination actions, which are adequate for a moderate awareness creation in the medical community but insufficient for technology transfer. This proposal will provide the means and assistance for dissemination actions in the form of preparation of industrial-oriented material, organisation of events for demonstration, press campaigns and assessments of the technology. Last but not least, the proposal aims at fostering European-wide technology transfer.
