EIT Health Launched 2 Innovation Calls

These 2 European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) Health Calls offer funding and support to interested individuals and organisations working across Europe’s health ecosystem.

Call 1: Innovation Validation Call 2026

EIT Health is calling for innovative digital and AI-powered medical technologies that are at an Innovation Maturity Level (IML) 6 and ready for clinical validation and market launch. Selected projects will be awarded funding to run pivotal clinical studies, collect real-world evidence to demonstrate safety and efficacy, apply for regulatory approval, and prepare for market commercialisation.

Call 2: New Models to Deliver Healthcare 2026

The New Models to Deliver Healthcare (NMDH) Call aims to bridge the gap between proven, market-ready health solutions at Innovation Maturity Level (IML) 8 to 9 and their adoption in real-world healthcare systems. This call offers funding for collaborative, industry-led, payor-supported and patient-centric projects that implement and scale value-based healthcare models.

Successful applicants benefit not only from funding, but also from access to EIT Health’s European network, expertise and visibility, helping ideas progress from concept to implementation. 

Full details, eligibility criteria and application guidance are available on the EIT Health Calls & Opportunities page. 

Submission deadline on 6 May 2026.
