    ❓WHY❓

    Both industrial transformation and post-COVID recovery give us a clearer perspective and offer us a chance to rethink economic and social models. It requires innovative solutions and tools, which will help European companies and organisations reshape their business models, products and processes. One of the most relevant avenues to follow in the context of digital transformation is smart health.
