ECHAlliance is organising its first Nordic Ecosystem Gathering, which will take place on the 12th of June from 13:00 to 16:30 CET during the digital health festival Radical Health in Helsinki, Finland.

This Nordic Ecosystem Gathering will bring people from the regions and we want to use this opportunity to discuss their needs in relation to the uptake of digital solutions, and also the upcoming demand-supply sessions. It will also include a short session on the DigitalHelathUptake project.
