A structured response to connected health needs
The TIGER project (FosTering eHealth and Social Innovation Gamechangers in Elderly and Remote care) is funded by the European Interreg Alpine Space program. It mobilizes €2.67 million to support e-health innovation and improve access to healthcare in rural or isolated areas, such as the Alps.
This program specifically targets startups and SMEs developing solutions related to remote healthcare and population aging. It offers eight free services, adapted according to the maturity level of the products or services proposed, ranging from concept validation to market entry support.
A Côte d’Azur territorial anchoring
In the Côte d’Azur, the Nice Côte d’Azur Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Eurobiomed are the two regional partners of the project. Their role is to identify and support eligible companies. The program facilitates access to specialized resources, European funding, and a network of transnational experts.
SMEs can thus structure their projects, accelerate market entry, and strengthen their positioning in the digital health sector.
Opening of applications
Applications for the TIGER program will open on September 16. This initiative represents a concrete opportunity for health-sector companies in the Côte d’Azur, offering them a broader, structured, and funded development framework.
