From IDOVEN we are very honoured and grateful to have been selected by the prestigious and highly selective EIC (European Innovation Council) Accelerator innovation program.

EIC Accelerator is the European Commission's flagship program for start-ups or SMEs, and was launched in September 2019 as part of the Horizon 2020 (H2020). The EIC Accelerator recognises Europe's most impactful and ground-breaking innovations, and offers support on a larger scale through funding, mentoring and access to the EIC network.

IDOVEN is one of 99 projects to be funded by EIC Accelerator in 2022, selected by a panel of experts from over 4,000 top-tier projects submitted across Europe.

With this funding milestone, IDOVEN is recognised as one of Europe's leading innovators in cardiology and digital healthcare.

The EIC's support brings us one step closer to scaling up Willem, our Artificial Intelligence platform worldwide to prevent and diagnose cardiovascular disease. IDOVEN prevent and diagnose cardiovascular disease.

IDOVEN will receive funding of EUR 6.5 million and will use the funds to further invest in R&D, expand product offerings, hire key positions and drive growth in new markets.

According to Jean-Eric Paquet, the European Union's director general for research and innovation, "EIC should become Europe's unicorn factory". "We are creating possibly the largest DeepTech fund in Europe" with €10 billion, managed by the European Innovation Council (EIC), to support European projects.

"The whole team is proud and very grateful to have been selected by the EIC Accelerator, which supports IDOVEN's innovative technology based on the highest standards of scientific research and exceptional growth potential" said Dr. Manuel Marina Breysse, co-founder and CEO of IDOVEN.

"We have experienced tremendous growth and are collaborating with industry leaders to validate the power of our AI platform by seeking to increase diagnostic accuracy, help physicians reduce waiting lists, increase remote patient monitoring capabilities, accelerate drug development and improve economics across the healthcare system. With the ultimate goal of protecting lives and reducing the impact cardiovascular disease has on the world today.

We're building the digital cardiology dream team and have just opened new positions to keep the team growing in sales, regulatory affairs, machine learning and data engineering, marketing and human resources.
