Welcome to HCI
The Healthcare
Chain Institute

healthcare chain institute

Fostering collaboration, innovation, sustainability and growth within the health sector. A Think Tank dedicated to industry organisations, stakeholders, experts and policy makers striving for a seamless end-to-end healthcare chain and ultimately to improve patient care and wellbeing.

At the Healthcare Chain Institute, however, we believe opportunities exist to pivot and to build better. The need for better cooperation and coordination exists, and a move away from silo’ed opinions and into end-to-end actions can free the potential for better access to medicines for patients everywhere.

Our focus on Market Access, Digitization and Environmental Sustainability, as well as providing a platform for innovators in the healthcare market to have coordinated access to the spectrum of healthcare providers, will simplify and accelerate supply chain performance and ensure more patients access more medicines more often.

Our Vision & Mission

Our vision is to support transforming the healthcare value chain into a seamless, sustainable, and digital ecosystem that improves patient care and wellbeing and creates more resilient, efficient and responsive healthcare systems.

Our mission is to foster collaboration, innovation, and value by aligning all stakeholders through unified platform, bridging silos in the healthcare sector, and leveraging opportunities to optimize processes and networks.
