Digital health and personalised medicine.

The ambition of the HE:AL Campus (Health And Life science Innovation) is to create a unique, integrated platform linked with research, healthcare and health economics.

Home of over 130 companies specialised in health technologies, half of which were founded less than 10 years ago, Luxembourg has made Personalised Healthcare one of its priority for the growth of the country. Luxembourg has the ambition to be a pioneer in implementing cutting-edge health technologies and strives to be among the leading countries in the world, especially in the field of personalised data-driven medicine.

A brand new campus to attract companies

The future Health And Life science Innovation (HE:AL) Campus will primarily target companies active in the fields of medical devices, in vitro diagnostics, and digital health tools and services. It will also be open to R&D, innovation and production activities, as well as to health technologies consulting and services. It will offer infrastructure to healthtech companies that want to set up offices in Luxembourg, thereby contributing to the development of key technologies for the implementation of personalised medicine solutions based on the use of health data enabled through artificial intelligence.

“Following the proven success of the House of BioHealth, the future HE:AL Campus will complete the existing reception and accommodation infrastructures in this field and will thus further contribute to the development of the health sciences and technologies sector in Luxembourg,”
Franz Fayot, Minister of the Economy

Becoming a key player in healthtech innovation

The ambition of the HE:AL Campus is to create a unique, integrated platform linked with research, healthcare and health economics. It will be located between the House of BioHealth, a future major hospital centre servicing the south of Luxembourg and the nearby Innovation Campus, Belval, that hosts the University of Luxembourg as well as several of the country’s major research organisations and business incubators.

The future HE:AL Campus is expected to open its doors in 2024. It will adopt a phygital model, combining physical infrastructure with digital features in order to promote networking and residents’ access to new services on the local as well as the international level.
