Introduction

Building on the momentum and insights generated by the SEURO project’s “Laying the Groundwork” workshop on 28 May 2028, this follow-up session is designed to consolidate and extend our collective understanding of what drives and what impedes the successful implementation of EU-funded digital health initiatives. By validating and refining the key drivers and barriers previously identified, this session aims to ensure that our recommendations reflect lessons learned and real-world experience from those implementing these projects. Bringing together a broader coalition of stakeholder, including policymakers, legal and ethics experts, technology developers, healthcare providers, and patient representatives will enable discussions in diverse perspectives and practical realities of EU digital health research. In this interactive session through input from an expert panel and whole room discussion we will vote on insights obtained, converting them into a draft policy-brief with concrete recommendations for future funding calls and projects to maximise successful implementation and impact. In doing so, we aim not only to shape the next phase of EU digital health research but also to catalyse sustainable, high-impact innovation and outputs that meets the needs of European citizens and health systems.
