Preliminary programme
INDICATE Consortium Meeting 2026

We are excited to invite you to the official Consortium Meeting of the INDICATE project, taking place from 14 till 16 September 2026 in Rome, Italy. This meeting will be graciously hosted by our partner, Fondazione Policlinio Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS.
As we are in September 2026, approximately halfway through the project, this meeting will focus on reflection and forward planning. We will review key achievements, such as the first use case going live, as well as main challenges, including updates on communication and education.
Looking ahead, we will focus on the second half of the project. The session will zoom in on upcoming deliverables and milestones, progress on data provider onboarding, and the next steps in establishing the legal entity that will operate the infrastructure.
