eHealth week 2014: Greece working with ECHAlliance for eHealth Forum Following eHealth week in Dublin in May 2013, Greece has announced plans for the eHealth

In a press release it recognised the introduction of the concept of "eHealth ecosystems" by

the Irish Presidency, stating that it presents a true challenge for the further development of

meaningful partnerships through the engagement of the entire range of health, wellbeing and

social care stakeholders, from both the private and the public sector. It announced that it

will be working jointly with ECHAlliance to facilitate industry engagement.

At the Invitation of the Greek Government the ECHAlliance visited Athens in July and have

actively worked with the Public Health Agency in preparations for the EHealth Forum to be

held in May 2014 in Athens under the Hellenic Presidency.
