Join the discussion on future of EU-US cooperation activities under the EU-US Roadmap.

The aim of this stakeholder session, jointly organised by the European Commission (DG CONNECT) and U.S. Department of Commerce, is to seek the views of stakeholders on the EU-US Roadmap which over the last two years has guided the activities of the collaboration focusing on two high priority areas – standards development and workforce development.

Medical practitioners, patient representative bodies, public sector officials, eHealth/Health IT policy makers, suppliers of eHealth/Health IT systems, educators, and other interested parties are invited to give their input to the upcoming update of the Roadmap which is a 'living document' and should evolve in line with current and future eHealth/Health IT stakeholder needs on both sides of the Atlantic.
