Pekka Kahri, Technology Officer at Helsinki University Hospital and a speaker at this year's Research and Innovation Days
An interview with the Technology Officer at Helsinki University Hospital and one of the speakers of the upcoming Research and Innovation Days 2021
Pekka Kahri is the Technology Officer at Helsinki University Hospital (HUS): the biggest public healthcare provider and academic medical centre in Finland. HUS is further considered to be one of Europe’s leading hospitals using digitalisation.
This year, Kahri will attend and speak at the EU’s Research and Innovation Days. You can follow the event and Kahri’s workshop “Unleashing innovation procurement for health and care” by registering for the two-day event.
I engage with internal and external stakeholders in order to boost public-private collaborations focusing on digital health, health data and medical devices. My main objective is to help link the best innovators and technology providers with HUS clinicians and their real-life needs. This is done through bilateral partnerships, ecosystems like CleverHealth network and innovative public procurement.
A lot of innovation happens on the clinical level as continuous development and lean principles are guiding there. Common infrastructure like the HUS datalake and IT systems like Digital Health Village are essential technology platforms, supported by analytics and R&D development competencies of the HUS’ IT department.
I will be sharing an experience where our neurosurgery department used innovative procurement processes to find development partners for the development of an AI algorithm. Their aim is to predict how Traumatic Brain Injury patient's state is developing in the ICU based on patient monitoring data. Traditional open tenders did not meet their need, so the approach taken there was a bit different.
I feel it is important to share and learn from others how innovative procurement has been used in practice. Often the "textbook examples" do not work as such since the situations and context can be so different.
Interesting cases and perspectives into using public procurement in innovation and digital health.
