RIES23

Forum RIES is the international reference forum at a national and international level to address the challenges and opportunities within the care ecosystem. Led by the Galician Health Cluster, CSG, it has been created as a meeting forum between the main agents of the public and private health and care sectors at a European level in collaboration with our strategic partners of the #CSG_Community.

In this eighth edition, that will be held in the city of Vigo, the theme of the VIII Forum RIES 2023 (#RIES23) “Innovative care ecosystems” encompasses one of our main purposes: to be a professional platform for public-private collaboration between the different agents of the sector that promote innovative collaborative projects within our ecosystem of innovation in health and care.

#RIES23 focuses on highlighting the essential role played by health and care innovation ecosystems and their key opinion leaders, a core value of our #CSG_Community. In this eighth edition of the RIES Forum, we aspire to give voice, listen and get to know all the members of innovative ecosystems while deepening our knowledge around four main topics of interest: Longevity, Biotech, OneHealth and Artificial Intelligence.

This year we want to start with the #RIES_Twinning as recognition of the collaborative relationships extended over time between the Galician Health Cluster, CSG and an outstanding international collaborator market. In this line CSG, in collaboration with the Chamber of Commerce of A Coruña, have established a collaboration for a number of actions of exchange between Scotland and Galicia.

One of the last actions for 2023 is the visit to the CSG ecosystem with travel costs, accommodation for up to 5 nights, and entrance fees to the VIII Forum RIES 2023 covered for up to five selected SME’s*. There will be a prior pre-registration of the candidates up to September 7th at 17:00 CET. CSG and Scottish Development International, together with the Chamber of Commerce of A Coruña, will be selecting the final five SMEs that will be travelling to Vigo, Galicia by September 15th 23:59 CET.

*Please be aware that no meals, unless otherwise stated, can be included.
