The European Connected Health Campus (ECHCampus) brings together commercial, academic and healthcare stakeholders to deliver leadership for the development of ‘Connected Health’ markets and practice across Europe.

The aims of our collaborative endeavour – transformation of healthcare delivery and the development of the connected health economy.

The European Connected Health Campus has four primary functions:

1. Promotion of Connected Health - to provide leadership, education and focus supporting European and  global implementation of connected health technologies.
2. Development of Connected Health Capabilities - to secure and engage in collaborative research and development and a range of field implementation projects utilising shared workspace and support facilities.
3. Participant Support - to support the strategic and tactical marketing and business development needs of ECHCampus members.
4. Education - ECHCampus will develop and provide educational opportunities, in support of broad scale deployments of remote monitoring technologies. This will include the development and documentation of best practices across procurement, implementation and standardization.

The ECHCampus, headquartered in Belfast Northern Ireland, is registered as a Community Interest Company (CIC) – a ‘not-for-profit’ organisation.  All operating surpluses are reinvested and the constitution allows for protection of any public sector funding inputs.

The ECHCampus is currently directed by a Board that includes representatives of commercial, academic and healthcare stakeholders.  The priorities and programmes of the ECHCampus are further informed by an International Advisory Panel. We anticipate that as the ECHCampus grows in numbers and influence that the governance structure will also evolve to include an Executive Director who, with the support of the Board, will lead the implementation of the strategy and oversee management of day to day operations.
