Uppsala Health Summit
Uppsala Health Summit is a recurring international policy meeting on the challenges of healthcare in the world, and how we can overcome them. The goal is to enable research and development results to reach healthcare and patients sooner.
Initiative for newcomers and integration
Uppsala University has knowledge in a number of important areas relevant to the current situation with many newcomers in Sweden. We have different opportunities for continuing professional development. There are also opportunities aimed directly at newcomers. In several projects we collaborate closely with other actors in society.
Innovation programmes
The European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) is part of EU’s Horizon 2020 which focuses on entrepreneurship and innovation in different areas. Uppsala University is an active participant in three of EIT’s six knowledge and innovation communities:
- EIT InnoEnergy (since 2010),
- EIT Health (since 2015) and
- EIT Raw Materials (since 2015).
The cooperation in these innovation communities happens both at the national and European level with other higher education institutions and industry. EIT Health also includes the public sector. Uppsala University contributes to these communities through courses, innovation projects and business-furthering activities.
Another strategic innovation programme where Uppsala University is both a participant and coordinator is Internet of Things Sweden.
