Met trots kondigen wij vandaag aan dat we het Digital Health Challenge Lab (DHCL) op 7 november 2024 officieel zullen lanceren. Dit baanbrekende open innovatieprogramma richt zich op het ontwikkelen van betekenisvolle en betaalbare oplossingen om mensen langer, gezonder en zelfstandiger thuis te laten wonen. DHCL is opgericht als antwoord op de urgente zorgbehoeften in onze gemeenschap.
Voor veel mensen die ondersteuning nodig hebben, is het fijn om zo lang mogelijk zelfstandig thuis te blijven wonen. Deze wens willen we als zorgsector, nu en in de toekomst, kunnen vervullen, maar kwalitatieve thuis- en mantelzorg vergt veel menskracht. Nu al werkt 1 op de 6 werknemers in de zorg, en als we niet innoveren zullen we zelfs 1 op de 4 werkenden nodig hebben. Dat is als maatschappij simpelweg niet haalbaar en betaalbaar. Daarom bundelen maar liefst 20 organisaties in de regio Arnhem-Nijmegen, van zorg en huisvesting tot overheid en onderwijs, hun krachten om te innoveren. Ze doen dit ‘challenge based’, om vernieuwende oplossingen sneller in de praktijk te brengen.
Floor van de Watering, programmamanager van DHCL, licht toe:
“Met dit open innovatieprogramma gaan we concrete knelpunten uit de wijk en zorgpraktijk vertalen naar ‘challenges’. Hiermee kunnen we slimme oplossingen en technologieën ophalen bij startups, scale-ups en het mkb. We hebben vervolgens drie testlocaties beschikbaar, zodat kansrijke innovaties direct met betrokken doelgroepen getest kunnen worden. Door deze aansluiting op de praktijk zullen we echt het verschil gaan maken!”
Matchmaking event & Open Call: 100@home
De lancering van DHCL wordt groots ingeluid met een matchmaking event waar vertegenwoordigers van onze partners om tafel gaan met geselecteerde startups en scale-ups. Om de meest innovatieve en inspirerende (health) bedrijven uit te nodigen voor donderdag 7 november, is de Open Call ‘100@home’ vanaf vandaag geopend. We zoeken ondernemers met vernieuwende (digitale) technologieën, producten en diensten die ervoor zorgen dat ouderen langer, gelukkig en zelfstandig thuis kunnen blijven wonen. Van preventieve oplossingen tot en met intensievere zorgtoepassingen.
Dus, heeft jouw bedrijf een (deel)oplossing die thuis- en mantelzorg beter en betaalbaarder kan maken? En wil jij jouw toepassing in één keer aan 20 stakeholders kunnen pitchen voor kans op een pilotproject? Schrijf je dan in via de Open Call!
De weg naar toekomstbestendige (thuis)zorg
Innovatie in het zorg- en welzijnsdomein is al langer aan de orde, denk maar eens aan de zorgrobot, virtuele thuishulp of alarmerende wearables. DCHL zal voortbouwen op eerdere successen én geleerde lessen, om zorginnovatie in een stroomversnelling te brengen! Technologieën die in theorie werken, maar niet gebruikt (kunnen) worden door de cliënt of zorgverlener, hebben immers geen impact. Daarom hebben we samen met open innovatie expert Starthubs gekozen voor een vraaggestuurd open innovatieprogramma.
Roadmap Digital Health Challenge Lab
In de voorbereidende fase van het programma, brengen we via de Open Call in kaart welke innovaties er nu al in de markt of in ontwikkeling zijn. Tegelijkertijd identificeren we de zorg-, welzijns- en woonuitdagingen van inwoners en instellingen in een praktijkonderzoek. Tijdens het matchmaking event, het officiële lanceermoment, zetten we de bevindingen uit deze voorfase direct in! We koppelen de geselecteerde ondernemers met oplossingen aan de juiste partners met behoeften. Met de meest kansrijke ‘matches’ zullen we begin 2025 praktijktesten starten. Het event is tevens het startpunt van nieuwe challenges, die focussen op de gevonden knelpunten in het wijkonderzoek. Zo kunnen we gerichter de innovaties vinden die aansluiten bij de regionale behoeften en wordt de kans op succesvolle implementatie groter.
“The Economic Board werkt samen onderwijs, ondernemers en overheden om maatschappelijke uitdagingen in de regio Arnhem-Nijmegen op te lossen. Wij geloven sterk in het ondersteunen van koplopers en hun innovaties, en het Digital Health Challenge Lab is nou precies zo’n programma dat een substantiële impact kan maken op zorg en gezondheid in onze regio.”
Aldus Jan van Dellen, Algemeen Directeur, The Economic Board regio Arnhem-Nijmegen.
Ook deelnemen als ondernemer of (publieke) organisatie?Ben je enthousiast geworden over de challenge based innovatie aanpak van DHCL en wil je hier aan bijdragen? Dat kan! Als indiener van een oplossing (startups, scale-ups, mkb’s) óf als partner van het programma (gemeenten, publieke instellingen of corporates).

Together with HAN University of Applied Sciences, CITC developed the Semiconductor Packaging University Program. The program provides a connection between education and industry and as such contributes to the training and skills of people that align with industry needs. People who are in high demand – now and in the future. The program therefore represents an important step in securing the future of the semiconductor industry in Europe.
The program offers its participants training in all relevant aspects of chip packaging, both in theory and in practice. The theoretical part is provided by industry experts – in addition to CITC and HAN, the program was developed in collaboration with NXP, Nexperia, Ampleon, TU Delft and TNO.
The practical assignments of the program are carried out on the premises of CITC and several semiconductor companies.
You learn about the semiconductor industry and take a deep dive into the final step of chip manufacturing. This is the phase in which the chip is packaged in its housing.
Developments such as integrated photonics, system-on-chip, embedded cameras, 5G antennas, sensors and micro-electro-mechanical systems place high demands on the manufacturing process… and the competencies of semiconductor staff.

Join us for our upcoming workshop Intellectual Property (IP) and AI (Artificial Intelligence). The competition in this sector steadily increases and the possession of intellectual property rights has shown to boost company growth and increase the chances of obtaining financing.
IP for AI inventions
This workshop focuses on understanding the basic concept of IP and when IP can be requested for inventions involving AI.
EP&C will address the following subjects:
Patent searching
During the second part of the workshop we plan an interactive session where we will teach you the basics of patent searching. You will learn how you can innovate more efficiently and thus save time and money by using patent information that is freely accessible online. For this part of the workshop, it is advisable to bring along a laptop.
Topics RVO will discuss are:
Speakers
Valeria De Matteis, PhD, European Patent Attorney at EP&C
Slavisa (Sasha) Milovanovic, PhD, Trainee Patent Attorney at EP&C
Rienk Rienksma, PhD, Intellectual Property Advisor at RVO (Netherland Patent Office, Part of the Netherlands Enterprise Agency)
Location
Noviotech Campus, Transistorweg 5, Nijmegen. Meet&Greet, building M.

The Master Buddy Program links starting entrepreneurs to a team of master students. They are the buddy whose principal mission is to make an entrepreneur happy. The program starts in September and is open for registration.
Collaboration for six months
The design of the Master Buddy Program is straight forward: an entrepreneur has a question and the Buddies act as a support to get to a solution. This can be about deceptively simple questions such as: ‘What is an appropriate strategy for my company?’, ‘What opportunities are there within my market?’ or ‘What do I really have to offer to my customers?’. But simple questions are not always the easiest to solve. The Master Buddies spar, provide support, ask critical questions, have an analytical view and help retrieve relevant information. They spend half a day a week on this. The students come from the master’s program Innovation & Entrepreneurship (I&E) at Radboud University. The program is organized in collaboration with local partners such as Startup Nijmegen and Mercator Launch.
Growth opportunities
From November onwards, students will be asked by the curriculum to investigate the opportunities for scaling and how this can be achieved profitably. The program concludes with a pitch event in February where students defend their ideas before an expert jury. The coordination of the Master Buddy Program is in the hands of dr. ir. Nanne Migchels. Registrations, questions and queries can be directed at nanne.migchels@ru.nl. Deadline is September 1st, 2024.
