Innovation at the Vall d’Hebron Barcelona Hospital Campus

The last few years have seen a drastic change in how we understand and relate to medicine. Innovation is a strategic pillar for improving patient care at Vall d'Hebron Barcelona Hospital Campus, as it allows us to optimise processes and ensure high quality service.

Project description

At Vall d'Hebron Barcelona Hospital Campus, innovation is essential in ensuring that our services and patient care are of the highest quality and at the forefront of current medical trends. Our strength in healthcare, research and teaching means we constantly incorporate new knowledge, generating value not just for patients but for professionals and the wider organisation. This strategic emphasis drives us to overcome new challenges in social and health care, improving sustainability and efficiency in the health system.

This strategy has led to the following concrete results: the creation of 18 spin-offs and start-ups; the transfer of 74 patents; the implementation of 12 projects thanks to the 'Jo innovo' competition; and the participation of over 400 patients and professionals in co-creation processes. The figures demonstrate our commitment to applied innovation and its capacity to generate a real impact.

To drive the culture of innovation in the Campus, we promote initiatives such as the 'Jo innovo' Competition: a space where our professionals can present and develop innovative ideas that transform clinical practice and hospital organisation. The winners receive specialised training and the opportunity to discover innovative ecosystems in other European hospitals, through the European University Hospitals Alliance (EUHA).

We support the promotion of projects that clearly support innovation in all areas.
