- Cyber Valley is bringing together AI expertise to drive innovation in the healthcare sector.
- The Cyber Valley Health Cluster strengthens collaboration between research, start-ups, and industry in the field of AI and medicine.
- The Cluster aims is to position Baden-Württemberg as a global pioneer for AI-driven healthcare solutions.
Stuttgart, October 28, 2024 – The Cyber Valley Health Cluster officially launched last Thursday with a public kickoff event in Tübingen. This initiative launched by Cyber Valley aims to unite the forces of science, industry, and start-ups to improve people’s long-term health through artificial intelligence and modern robotics.
Collaboration between research and industry for AI-driven health technologies
The Cyber Valley Health Cluster aims to integrate research, practice, and technology. It promotes joint projects between AI experts, scientists, and companies to develop innovative solutions for current and future challenges in the healthcare sector. The Health Cluster emphasizes interdisciplinary knowledge exchange, enabling new approaches and solutions that go beyond individual technological advances.
Rebecca C. Reisch, Managing Director of Cyber Valley GmbH, highlights the importance of this collaboration: “With the Cyber Valley Health Cluster, we are creating a unique alliance that promotes exchange in the healthcare sector and thus innovation in Baden-Württemberg. We aim to create an environment in which AI-based solutions can be developed and real added value can be created for the healthcare sector, potentially providing answers to the biggest questions in modern medicine.”
Strong Cyber Valley Partners and Friends are already on board
The Cyber Valley Health Cluster is backed by strong partnerships. Among the already confirmed Cyber Valley Partners are well-known players such as Boehringer Ingelheim, ZEISS, the University of Tübingen, the University of Stuttgart, and the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems (MPI-IS). These partners are investing significantly in the Cyber Valley Community and are playing a central role in the further development of the Health Cluster.
In addition, the Cyber Valley Health Cluster is supported by numerous committed Cyber Valley Friends who enrich the network with their expertise and connections. These include Immatics, Cegat, Ovesco, BIOPRO Baden-Württemberg, BioRegio STERN Management, as well as the Medical Innovations Incubator, and the start-ups Osora and Cerebri. Further candidates are already under consideration.
Reisch emphasizes the role of the Cyber Valley Community: “Together with our Partners and Friends, we are creating an environment that drives the development of technologies that are not only groundbreaking but also practical and ethical. Because only by working together do we have the chance to establish Baden-Württemberg and the whole of Germany at the forefront of global AI health innovations.”
Long-term goal: a lasting healthcare alliance
The Cyber Valley Health Cluster supports start-ups and innovation projects to create real value by generating new jobs and health solutions. Health Cluster participants moreover benefit from extensive connections and new networking opportunities that enable the development of pioneering healthcare solutions and rapid knowledge transfer between research and industry.
The long-term goal of the Cyber Valley Health Cluster is to create a lasting and active community, pooling health expertise to enable interdisciplinary teams to tackle global health challenges. Further events and interaction formats are planned for the Cyber Valley Health Cluster in the coming months.
