• Support the creation of innovative companies through its incubation program, from concept to launch.
• Helping companies innovate—whether they’re already innovative or looking to embrace innovation—through personalized support and group workshops that empower them to become self-sufficient.
• Overcome barriers to projects (technological, organizational, financial) by providing methodology, feedback, and guidance toward appropriate funding.
• Connecting project leaders to the ecosystem: research labs, experts, industrial partners, institutions, and funders.
• Support transformative projects led by public and private stakeholders in the region.
• Promote a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship and enhance the appeal of Southern Lorraine.

• Structure your project from the outset: clarify the value proposition, intended use cases, and business model—a factor that is often decisive in digital health.
• Participate in an incubation program if the project leads to the creation of an innovative company, with ongoing support until launch.
• Gain access to the local ecosystem—research laboratories, healthcare facilities and professionals, experts, and local companies—to test, validate, and co-develop your solution.
• Be directed to the right contacts for health-specific topics (regulations, health data, medical device labeling) rather than searching on your own.
• Identify suitable funding sources and receive support in applying for them.
• Benefit from a local point of contact who is attentive, candid, and impartial—someone who helps you take a step back from the project and move forward independently.

At every stage, and ideally as early as possible:

• "I've identified a need or have an idea": whether you're a healthcare professional, researcher, employee, or entrepreneur, GNI helps you formulate the idea and verify that it addresses a real need.
• "I want to know if my project is viable": Test the solution, its applications, and its business model before moving forward.
• "I’m not sure how to structure my project": partnership with a company, transfer to an existing organization, internal project, or starting a business through our incubator. GNI helps you choose the most suitable path.
• "I’m looking for partners or funding": find the right contacts to develop, test, and finance the solution.
• "My company wants to innovate in e-health": Launch a new project or reignite a culture of innovation.

No, not directly (it may recommend certain funding sources or be selected by funding agencies).
