The Cologne region is a dynamic and innovation-friendly environment for digital health solutions. Thanks to its agile IT industry, excellent universities and research institutions, and major players in the healthcare sector, Cologne is an attractive location for developing and implementing forward-looking digital health solutions.

Digital Health Cologne

Digital Health Cologne is a networking initiative that promotes digital innovation in healthcare in the Cologne region. It sees itself as an open platform for bringing together regional activities in the fields of digitalisation and health.

The network brings together key figures from business, academia, healthcare and the start-up community, providing spaces for exchange, networking and collaboration, and offering particular support to start-ups in their business development.

Our goal is to combine the diverse skills and resources of start-ups, companies, universities, research institutions and clinics to develop digital solutions for the healthcare market together.

Shaping digital change in healthcare together.

As a strong alliance, we are actively shaping digital change in healthcare through cooperation, knowledge transfer, and the promotion of practical innovation.

This initiative is supported by KölnBusiness Wirtschaftsförderung, the Cologne-Bonn Health Region, the Cologne Chamber of Industry and Commerce, and the Gateway Universities: the University of Cologne, TH Cologne, Rheinische Hochschule Cologne, the German Sport University Cologne, and the CRS International Business School.
