“Inovação em Saúde por quem a pratica” book launch
Science Outreach | 21 April 2022 “Inovação em Saúde por quem a pratica” book launch

Pedro Pita Barros, Filipa Breia da Fonseca and António Bensabat Rendas (Nova Medical School) launched the book “Inovação em Saúde por quem a pratica”. The publication was supported by Fundação “la Caixa”, BPI and Nova SBE, in partnership with the Health Cluster Portugal, within the scope of the Social Equity Initiative. The book aims to contribute to the development of a national culture of innovation in multiple areas of health, an innovation conceived and produced in Portugal rather than imported from other countries.  The authors interviewed representatives of institutions classified by the Health Cluster Portugal as above-average innovators, both public and private, and analyzed their narratives. “From the multiple shared experiences, we can identify patterns regarding the successes achieved, but also the reasons for the failures. Learning from others’ experience will allow each reader to better prepare their own initiatives with a broader perspective”, said the authors.
