The CMI has been created by the Government of Flanders to accelerate the translation of innovative discoveries in the field of health care by creating, coordinating, organizing and stimulating collaborative efforts between universities, industry and universities, and to interact with international institutions and organizations with similar goals.

The CMI activities contribute in a major way to:

  Accelerated access to know-how as well as health care products and strategies for the end-user: patient and physician.
  Better understanding of diseases, their evolution, their treatment and their prevention.
  The creation of technology platforms that allow for the genesis of new companies with focus on health care and med-tech.
  Smooth transition from academic know-how and understanding to innovation into the R&D process that turns ideas into applications and products.
