Innovation

At its heart, innovation is the creation and exchange of ideas. It involves the creation and adoption of something new that provides value. In order to realise value in organisations six vectors can be used to realise and deliver value.
-
Vision
-
Technology
-
Business Case
-
Process Change
-
Organisational Change
-
Societal Change
Unless such vectors are managed in tandem, the chances of innovation success are significantly reduced (Curley and Salmelin, 2018, p. 132).
Across EU member states performance on innovation continues at a steady pace. The European Innovation Scorecard demonstrated by member states comparative analysis of innovation performance.
The EU Innovation Radar Platform details information about EU-funded innovations from high-quality projects visible and accessible to the public. Here we provide links to some relevant innovative research projects relating to health and interoperability listed by the Commission.
