Save Data: from collected health data to insights & innovation

13:50 to 14:10 14 Jun

Save Data Coock is a project of VITO, imec and flanders.healthtech. The goal of the project is to make data, technical building blocks and knowledge available for all the players in the quadruple helix (industry, research, citizens, government) in an ethical, safe and transparent way. Data and applications are separated, and personal health data are placed with the individual to create an open and trustworthy eco-system. Within this system, context data and complex data analysis is made possible, to allow for innovation, data-driven R&D, and more personalised medicine/applications within a level playing field.
