Vision-driven health
Vinnova funds and supports long-term, visionary innovation milieus that engage actors across society to jointly make a difference to citizens’ health. The first five vision-driven innovation milieus in health were established in November 2019. Vision Zero Cancer is one of them.
Background
There are major challenges in the field of health that are driven by medical advances, digitalisation and demographic change. In addition, there are increased expectations from patients and citizens in matters of accessibility and influence. Structural and systematic change work to open up locks and strengthen opportunities in today's health systems will be needed to bring about long-term system changes, system innovation, in ecosystems for health.
The first five vision-driven innovation milieus in health were established in November 2019. Vision Zero Cancer is one of them. The Swedish Innovation Agency Vinnova finances the innovation milieus with a total of SEK 125 million over five years. The goal is for these collaborations to live on after Vinnova's funding ends.
