Italy-Switzerland Collaboration: a workshop in Milan for the future of medical research
On July 9, 2026, the city of Milan hosted an important meeting dedicated to scientific research. A matchmaking workshop between Italy and Switzerland was held at the Innovhub headquarters, focusing on the opportunities offered by the European Horizon Europe program.
The event focused in particular on the health sectors and the "Mission Cancer." The main objective of the initiative was to create new collaborations between researchers, companies, and institutions from the two countries, fostering the exchange of knowledge and expertise in fundamental medical fields.
The Horizon Europe program represents one of the most important tools of the European Union for funding innovation. Thanks to this meeting, participants had the opportunity to discuss joint projects and plan shared strategies to address the challenges related to the prevention and treatment of oncological diseases.
Initiatives like the one in Milan are essential for strengthening the scientific bond between European nations. Cross-border cooperation, in fact, makes it possible to pool resources and accelerate technological progress, bringing concrete benefits to the scientific community and, ultimately, to the health of citizens.
