Summary
The overall objective of the Clinnova project is to create in Luxembourg a new Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Digital Health and Personalised Medicine.
This CoE will be created by three partners in Luxembourg:
• Fonds National de la Recherche (FNR, coordinator) - Luxembourg\'s national research funding;
• Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH) - Luxembourg\'s public research for health;
• University of Luxembourg (UL) - Luxembourg\'s university\'s has two major interdisciplinary centres: Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine and Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust.
Together with two leading research and innovation organisations outside Luxembourg:
• Center for Innovativ Medicinsk Teknologi, Region Syddanmark (CIMT-RSD) - a world-leader in eHealth and clinical practice;
• Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum (DKFZ) - the highly-ranked German Cancer Research Centre.
The overall objective of the Clinnova Teaming Phase 1 project was to produce a detailed and robust business plan to implement the CoE.

Final results
The business plan produced for the Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Digital Health and Personalised Medicine during the Clinnova Teaming Phase 1 project will enable the CoE to be implemented during the Clinnova Teaming Phase 2 project. The Clinnova CoE will be governed by an autonomous legal entity - the Clinnova Foundation – established in Luxembourg whose founding members will include the Luxembourgish consortium partners (FNR, LIH and UL) as well as the international consortium partners (CIMT-RSD and DKFZ).
The Clinnova CoE’s vision is for Luxembourg to become a global role model for the systematic adoption of disruptive digital health and personalised medicine solutions in healthcare practice over the next 10 years, by breaking the barriers between healthcare and research, while empowering individuals to manage their health.
The Clinnova CoE’s vision is driven by the need to tackle three key challenges blocking the transformation of today’s legacy healthcare systems in Luxembourg and Europe into fully digitised and integrated healthcare systems of the future:
- Challenge 1: Need for citizens’ secure access to and sharing of health data;
- Challenge 2: Need for better data to promote research, disease prevention and personalised health and care;
- Challenge 3: Need for digital tools for citizen empowerment and for a person-centred healthcare system.
To overcome these challenges, the Clinnova CoE’s mission is to build a bridge based on three “pillarsâ€, namely:
- People: The centre of health is people. Any change or innovation will have to be supported and implemented by stakeholders: patients and their families, clinicians and payers.
- Processes: Processes are required to ensure standardization, trust, and integrity in all aspects of digital health solutions. Processes need to be built at all levels to allow for novel solutions to be built that become useful and sustainable for an individual’s health.
- Data and Systems: The foundation of digital health is data and the systems that store, process, and provide services over that data. These need to be secure and trustworthy, constantly available, and of high-quality, in order to promote users’ trust, and to obtain value that can be translated into improved health.
By focusing efforts on these three bridge pillars, the Clinnova CoE will help to create future healthcare systems in Luxembourg, and across Europe, with the following qualities:
- Unified digital environment supporting all stakeholders in the healthcare system.
- Usable, accessible, and integrated health data spaces built on trusted data and trustworthy infrastructure.
- Optimal environment for developing and testing digital health solutions for rollout across Europe.
