The Director of Łukasiewicz – PORT, Dr. Andrzej Dybczyński, has been appointed to the Supervisory Board of EIT Health InnoStars, an organization bringing together leading European innovators in the field of health. He will represent all Polish partners within the organization.
The Director of our Institute received his nomination during an EIT Health meeting in Stockholm, held from 25/05/2022 to 26/05/2022. His term on the organization’s supervisory board will begin in June and will last three years.
“I view membership on the Supervisory Board of EIT Health InnoStars as both an honor and, above all, recognition of how dynamically Łukasiewicz – PORT has developed since its establishment just three years ago. This nomination is also a responsibility—for me personally, for the Łukasiewicz – PORT Institute, and for the entire Łukasiewicz Research Network. I am confident that our competencies and experience in innovation in biotechnology and health, as well as in conducting and managing research projects, will allow me to represent Polish partners with due diligence and to make a meaningful contribution to the work of the board,” said Dr. Andrzej Dybczyński, Director of Łukasiewicz – PORT.
EIT Health is a network of leading health innovators supported by the European Union. EIT Health InnoStars is one of the organization’s eight geographical regions and includes, among others, Poland, Italy, Portugal, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Croatia, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia.
EIT Health InnoStars focuses on promoting entrepreneurship, innovation, and education in healthcare and healthy living, as well as on reducing the gap between regions that are leaders in innovation and those that are still developing.
The Director of our Institute will serve as the voice of all Polish institutions and companies affiliated with EIT Health InnoStars. In addition to the Łukasiewicz Research Network, these include, among others, the Medical Universities of Łódź and Gdańsk, the University of Warsaw, and Lodz University of Technology.
