LISA - Life Science Austria

We are looking forward to meeting you at #BIOEurope in Stockholm next week! 👏👇👇

#LISAOnTour: Throwback to the Festival of Biologics in Basel! ⏪ From October 15–17, Anna Weihs represented our Life Science team at the Festival of Biologics in Basel. This conference offered valuable insights into the field of biologics development, spanning the entire lifecycle - from discovery and development through to manufacturing, clinical trials, and commercialization. With over 3,000 attendees, discussions among leaders from pharma, biotech, and academia underscored the importance of sustainable and affordable access to #biosimilars globally. We were especially pleased to see two Austrian startups, bespark*bio and RNAnalytics, making impactful contributions on this international stage - both of which are supported by Austria Wirtschaftsservice’s Deep Tech funding! 🚀

🔊🔊 Austria Wirtschaftsservice is launching the next round of its AI-Adoption and AI-Adoption:Green call in the aws Digitalization program, starting on January 2nd, 2025. The aim of the "AI-Adoption" funding is to bring #trustworthy handling of #AI into business practice and to prepare companies for the upcoming EU regulations, standards and certifications of AI. The aim of the “AI-Adoption: Green” funding is to support the use of trustworthy AI for climate protection and climate adaptation by enabling #green initiatives to make an immediate and measurable contribution to the eight priorities of the EU Green Deal. The funding is aimed at start-ups, SMEs and large companies from all fields such as energy transition, environmental, climate protection, circular economy, information and communication technologies, production, mobility transition, space, aviation and health.

#LISAOnTour: The 8th Regulatory Affairs Conference organized by LISAvienna in cooperation with en.co.tec - Medizinprodukte-Consulting & Academy was a huge success! 🌟 Yesterday, the German-speaking #MedTech and #IVDR community gathered at the Apothekertrakt of Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna. A key topic of this year’s conference was AI. Albert Froemel, Innovation Manager at Wiener Gesundheitsverbund, kicked things off with an excellent keynote on the use of #AI in clinics. It was an eye-opening reality check on where we stand and the potential yet to be unlocked. Next to valuable information on what needs to be considered in light of the EU AI Act, the important topics cybersecurity and reimbursement were covered. Another highlight was definitely the panel discussion on the reimbursement process for digital health applications (DiGA) in Austria. Moderated by Christine Stadler-Häbich, AUSTROMED Board Member for Digitalization, Mandlz Gregor (Federation of Austrian Social Insurances), Arnold Herzog (AGES/BASG), Maria-Luise Plank (Attorney-at-law), Daniel Amann (S.O.F.Y/Edupression), and Philipp Steininger (Sanova Pharma) discussed the progress. With the recent development of a process for evaluating quality-assured #DiGAs and initial pilot projects, the implementation into standard care is within reach. Very encouraging! On-site for you from the LISA cluster network: Elvira Kainersdorfer, Eva Schlintl, Brigitte Tempelmaier, Andrea Jan Coleselli, Philipp Hainzl, verena ossmann, Birgit Sidl, Lorenz Neuhäuser-Happe, Roland Fuchs, Frauke Wurmböck, Michael Gruber, Liesa Doppler
