BRIGHTskills is a critical initiative for the health industrial ecosystem; a system under pressure to ensure robust, flexible, supply chains, to reshore medicines manufacturing and production, and to develop novel medicines and antibiotics, and provide digital tools compliant with cyber-security, data protection and data sharing regulations.
Europe’s demographic and epidemiological transition bring additional challenges. As Europeans live longer, with more chronic illness and disabilities, Europe’s health industries must be ready and able to foster innovation, and support the delivery of high-tech, personalised, integrated and person-centred, care across the European Union.

Europe’s health industries are evolving rapidly, and with it comes the urgent need to upskill and reskill its workforce.
BRIGHTskills is an Erasmus+ Blueprint project. Led by EIT Health, a pan-European, cross-sectorial consortium of 24 partners — including universities, vocational institutions, and companies, ranging from SMEs to multinationals — joins forces, with the support of the Health Industry LSP, to upskill and reskill the health industry workforce, making sure that Europe has the talent needed to drive innovation, advance competitiveness, and handle major healthcare crises.
