Our Funding
EUPATI is co-financed by in-cash contribution from industry partners and in-kind contribution from public partners, as well as fee-based services to ensure continuous education and reliable information for patients, patient representatives and the wider public. In addition, EUPATI receives funding in the form of projects/grants supported by e.g. IMI/IHI, EIT Health, EU4Health and EFPIA. EUPATI is also supported by organisational and individual donations
The sustainability plan for EUPATI is based on a mixed business model with different interconnected funding streams serving to sustain the core EUPATI activities (The EUPATI Patient Expert Training Programme, the EUPATI toolbox and the EUPATI National Platforms) and enabling a widening of EUPATI’s scope. The objective is to have a balanced public-private funding base.
