Workshop 8.12. in Copenhagen on Public Procurement and Innovation within the Health Sector / Nordic countries

As an initiative of the Nordic Council of Ministers and Nordic Innovation a workshop was organized 8.12. 2011  in Copenhagen.

The aim of this joint initiative is to speed up and facilitate Nordic cooperation within the Innovative public procurement field, with specific emphasis on the Health sector. Another positive impact is hopefully alignment with EU initiatives as advocated in the Horizon 2020 strategy and upcoming EU work programmes.

The presentations from the workshop, including one on Preco-project findings,  can be found on the links to SlideShare from the news article below:

The subsequent discussion was supported by the Preco coordinator.
