Europe’s healthcare faces growing pressures from ageing populations and higher costs, but advances in semiconductors and digital technologies offer a major opportunity. This whitepaper explains how the “From Chips to Healthcare Services” vision aims to connect Europe’s strengths in technology and health, creating integrated, personalized, and trustworthy digital healthcare systems: The European digital continuum in health and wellbeing.

The whitepaper describes how crucial frameworks like the Chips Act, AI Act, and European Health Data Space align to support this transformation. It also identifies key barriers, including fragmented systems and uneven technology maturity. The whitepaper calls for greater collaboration across research, industry, and public health to scale innovation across Europe. It offers recommendations to ensure that the latest technological breakthroughs lead to real improvements in healthcare for all European citizens.

“In this spirit, the vision “From Chips to Healthcare Services” is more than a research initiative. It is a call to action, to integrate, to collaborate, and to deliver innovation with impact. It invites Europe to transform its scientific and industrial excellence into measurable well-being for every citizen.”
