Abstract
The medical industry is characterized by the fact that its digital transformation and the subsequent changes run much slower than in other industries. The introduction of innovative solutions related to patient-centric, value-oriented digital technologies is extremely important for the global health-care system (as announced by the World Health Organization) as well as for the health-care system of the Russian Federation (as announced by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation) Digital transformation in health-care requires significant efforts to unify the researchers and specialists of various industries: scientific and medical organizations, pharmaceutical companies, manufacturers of medical equipment, innovative and information technology (IT) companies. Collaboration within the ecosystem of healthcare (medical) hubs, according to theorists and practitioners, can significantly accelerate the widespread introduction of innovations in medicine. The experience of combining cross-functional efforts through the formation of innovation medical hubs already exists in Japan, Germany, Switzerland and other countries. Theier experience demonstrates certain results in accelerating the innovative development of the health-care industry. The medical direction of activity of the European multi-industrial hub EIT Digital shows acceleration of the development and implementation of digital products by 25%, as well as an increase in the profits of companies involved in the hub associated with the development and implementation of digital products by an average of 20%. All these cases confirm the successful experience of implementing healthcare innovation hubs abroad. At the same time, in the Russian Federation, the practice of organizing innovation hubs is already being carried out in other industries (Kaspersky hub, Rosatom innovation hub), but, so far, there is no cross-functional medical innovation hubs, despite several attempts to organize cross-functional activities in the form of medical incubators and clusters. The purpose of this chapter is to present architectural models of a healthcare innovation hub (multi-industrial community) aimed at the development of research, educational and industrial project activities based on cross-industry and cross-disciplinary interaction of leading organizations and specialists in the field of medicine, high-tech medical companies, supported by information and digital technologies by analyzing the leading health-care hubs worldwide. As a result the healthcare hub architecture model consists of four layers and includes business processes of the hub, requirements for the digital platform of the hub, and a hardware system for working with medical, personal, and management data as well as physical infrastructure characteristic for innovation processes in medicine.
