Currently TEM is working on a national innovation agenda for sustainable healthcare. In our work, we meet with stakeholders from companies, the healthcare sector as well as county councils, in order to gather knowledge of Sweden’s strongest positions and relevant needs in the sector of sustainable healthcare. During spring 2015, we arrange two open workshops for all interested parties.
The next workshop will be held at Swecare (Biblioteksgatan 25) in Stockholm on paril 14, 2015, at 13.30. Everyone with a strong interest in sustainable healthcare is welcome to take part in the workshop!
Application:
TEM arranged the first workshop on March 26 at our own premises in Malmö. Around 25 participants discussed a wide range of questions: In what spheres are more sustainable innovations highly needed; how can the healthcare sector / companies / county councils better communicate their needs to universities / companies; what kind of cooperation is needed and what form it can take. Moreover, the participants touched upon the need of available test-environment and references in the home market, as well as the healthcare’s role in this field.

The innovation agenda will build upon the material provided by the workshops. The invitation can be downloaded here.
Topics for discussion: How to provide healthcare with more sustainable innovations? How to boost cooperation with the business? How to use this knowledge to increase export and hence income from taxes? How to improve the innovation climate for a more sustainable healthcare? What are the biggest environmental and CSR challenges that healthcare faces? What obstacles are there to sustainable innovation in healthcare?
Target audience: Life Sciences and environmental technology companies, environmental managers and environmental representatives from healthcare, companies and other organizations that closely work with innovation etc.
When: March 26, 2015, in Malmö /April 14, 2015, in Sotckholm. 13.30-16.30, drinks after 16.30.

Nu lanserar vi Nordic Center for Sustainable Healthcare. Vi har under ett flertal år sett behovet och nu gör vi äntligen slag i saken. Centret drivs till att börja med av TEM tillsammans med Lunds Universitet, men fler partners och aktörer kommer knytas till verksamheten. Centret kommer successivt att byggas upp under 2015. Parallellt med uppbyggnaden av centret tar vi på uppdrag av Vinnova fram en innvoationsagenda för hållbar sjukvård. Kontakta oss gärna om du har några frågor eller funderingar.
The healthcare sector stands for a significant part of the GDP and the overall environmental impact. Meanwhile, there is a lack of a coordinated interaction between the sector’s stakeholders in terms of knowledge transfer, benefits from commercial opportunities and application of newly developed products and services.
The innovation agenda for sustainable healthcare is a collaboration project of TEM, Swecare, Lund University and Sustainable Business Hub, financed by Sweden’s innovation agency Vinnova, the Swedish Energy Agency and the Swedish Research Council Formas.
Sustainable healthcare is a complex area that embraces a range of industries and research fields. Its stakeholders come from various branches, such as private and public healthcare, environmental technology, Life Science with good environmental performance, construction industry etc. With this variety of stakeholders, sustainable healthcare on the one hand faces certain obstacles, while on the other it has a big potential to act as a platform for the sector’s stakeholders.
The innovation agenda’s starting point is the stakeholder perspective. It shall provide different solutions to the challenges that exist in the area today. Moreover, it will point to the opportunities in the area that have a capacity to strengthen Sweden’s economic growth, employment and at the same time reduce environmental impacts of the healthcare.

Hållbar sjukvård, eller Sustainable Healthcare, är ett mycket spännande område med stor potential för CleanTech-industrin. Sjukvården står för en mycket stor del av det globala BNP och intresset för CleanTech lösningar är mycket stort. Under de senaste åren har ett flertal exportprojekt genomförts där svenska företag matchas mot utländska intressenter. I april kommer en delegation att åka till Tel Aviv för att samverka med Clalit hospital network som är intresserade av svensk miljöteknik och är världens näst största privata sjukhuskluster. Kom och lyssna på vad hållbar sjukvård innefattar och få mer information om kommande projekt.
Daniel Eriksson har arbetat med hållbar sjukvård i över 12 år, först som miljöansvarig på Universitetssjukhuset MAS i Malmö och i dagsläget som chef för Stiftelsen TEM vid Lunds Universitet. Daniel har varit inblandad i många olika projekt både i sjukvården, men även hos leverantörer till sjukvården. Daniel har utbildat 1000-tals personer i hållbar sjukvård och håller regelbundet utbildningar/föreläsningar både nationellt och internationellt. Daniel har varit projektledare i olika EU-projekt kring sjukvård och miljö och skriver för tillfället bla en svensk innovationsagenda kring hållbar sjukvård åt Vinnova.
När: torsdagen 11 december, 11.45-13.00
Var: Malmö Cleantech City, Nordenskiöldsgatan 17 Malmö
Hur: Anmäl er här senast 9 december. Lunch ingår. Kostnadsfritt, men no-show utan avanmälan faktureras med 495 kr + moms. Begränsat antal platser!
