The Challenge
“If Europe is to maintain a vibrant and sustainable healthcare sector that can lead in innovation, we must rise to the challenge of recruiting and educating the best talent.” – Celine Carrera, Director of Education at EIT Health and WorkInHealth Foundation Chair.
EIT Health initiated the WorkInHealth Foundation to address the evident and growing skills and talent gaps within the healthcare industry across Europe. Although talent shortages exist across the board, there are particular skillsets where new and emerging roles are leading to exponential demand. These include digital, commercial, and innovation settings. The urgency is clear: without major, systemic change the sustainability and growth potential of the EU healthcare industry is at risk.
The WorkInHealth Foundation is dedicated to addressing the unprecedented talent crunch in the healthcare industry. We will do so by identifying urgently needed skills gaps, attracting and assessing talent, as well as developing customised training programmes.
Our ambitions for the next five years
- 2 million talent recruited to the sector in 1 000 companies using WorkInHealth platforms Supported by massive pan-EU communications campaigns and digital career fairs and events
- 15 million euros invested in upskilling and reskilling in partnership with universities, industries, hospitals to implement large-scale training programmes financed through corporate donations and revenues from digital platform and talent matching services
- 100 000 staff upskilled or reskilled with the goal to alleviated by one-firth the 500 000 looming job loss
- 1 000 new talent trained every year entering the labour market perfectly equipped to match the skills gap

Le cadre réglementaire varie en fonction de la nature et de la finalité de votre projet d’innovation (dispositif médical, application numérique, service de soins), des technologies utilisées pour le traitement et/ou le stockage de données personnelles et ses utilisateurs finaux (professionnels de santé, établissements de soins, grand public).
Comment intégrer le réglementaire dans le développement de son projet ? Quels sont les métiers du réglementaire à intégrer dans ses équipes ?
Dans 100 jours pour réussir, Claire Nassiet, Deputy Managing Director à l’EIT Health France, explique l’importance stratégique de prendre en compte les enjeux réglementaires.
