On the occasion of the first anniversary of the Apply AI Strategy and closing the first edition of the European AI Innovation Month, the European Commission is preparing the Apply AI Summit:
EUCAIM and Compass AI are invited to participate with a joint booth to present their results!
You can find us in the AI in Health exhibition area where successful real-world applications of AI solutions in healthcare are featured.
EUropean Federation for CAncer IMages (EUCAIM) is the cornerstone of the European Commission-initiated European Cancer Imaging Initiative, a flagship of Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan (EBCP), which aims to foster innovation and deployment of digital technologies in cancer treatment and care to achieve more precise and faster clinical decision making, diagnostics, treatment and predictive medicine for cancer patients. EUCAIM's mission is to build a pan-European digital federated infrastructure of cancer-related images, which will be used for the development of AI tools toward Precision Medicine. We hope that this infrastructure will provide the means to develop AI tools that will be able to enhance the (cancer) diagnosis procedure, treatment and the identification of the need for predictive medicine benefiting patients across Europe.

Community Of Multidisciplinary Professionals Advancing Safe and Successful AI Implementation in Clinical Practice (Compass AI) is a 48-month project co-funded by the European Union under the EU4Health programme 2021–2027 aiming to overcome critical barriers to the safe and effective deployment of AI in healthcare by developing scalable, equitable solutions, with a focus on cancer care and remote regions.The project will build upon FUTURE-AI, an established framework for trustworthy AI in healthcare according to six guiding principles: fairness, universality, traceability, usability, robustness, and explainability. By integrating insights from the expert community, best-practice AI deployment guidelines will be defined and validated through four real-world pilot studies conducted across European countries, in diverse healthcare settings and clinical practices.

SCaling Oncology Pilots across Europe with imaging and AI (SCOPE-AI) bridges the crucial gap between early AI prototypes and everyday clinical care. Funded under the Digital Europe Programme, the project acts as a practical testing ground that helps developers, startups, and smaller companies bring their healthcare technologies to the market faster, with a clear focus on multimodal AI that combines medical imaging with data from pathology, genomics, or clinical records. To do this, SCOPE-AI builds on the Cancer Image Europe platform and extends it with new services for validating AI solutions. This includes matchmaking that connects AI innovators with suitable datasets and clinical sites, a framework for upscaling AI models to multi-centre and multimodal data, and technical verification before tools enter the hospital. Following trusted guidelines and deployment procedures from Compass AI, these services safely introduce new AI solutions directly into hospital workflows. By coordinating extensive real-world tests for 15 AI tools across at least 8 European clinical centres, the project gathers the concrete evidence needed to show whether these technologies are effective, cost-efficient, and practical for daily use. Lessons learned feed back into updated FUTURE-AI guidelines and training for healthcare professionals. Ultimately, this helps promising AI models make the leap towards certified, ready-to-use tools that improve cancer diagnosis and patient care across Europe, while establishing Cancer Image Europe as a lasting European service for AI validation.

The Apply AI Summit aims to showcase how trustworthy, human-centric AI is driving competitiveness in key sectors of the European economy, with panel discussions and hands-on demonstrations. Healthcare is one of the priority sectors that will be featured, and one of the main discussion topics of the event will be accelerating the adoption of AI in strategic sectors, including healthcare.
🌟Where? At The EGG in Brussels
