Through networked collaboration in agile formats, participants in the DUCAH Forum save not only money in the long term, but above all, time. Here, you gain direct access to the in-depth expertise of highly qualified researchers and practitioners. On the DUCAH Marketplaces, you can discover pioneering ideas for process optimization in the healthcare and care sectors. These ideas can be further expanded during the DUCAH Impulse sessions.
Thanks to the proven agile format of the DUCAH Impulse Teams, supported by scientific guidance, a cross-sector and cross-organizational space for solutions and innovation is created. Using the “Open Innovation” methodology, fresh, targeted innovation ideas are developed collaboratively in a continuous working process that actively involves future users. The topics discussed within the Impulse Teams also help shape the agenda for the DUCAH Forums.

The regularly held DUCAH Forum enables deep knowledge sharing and exchange of perspectives.
Networking and Exchange
The DUCAH Forums primarily serve as a platform for networking and exchange between members and Impulse Teams. Exciting events from fields such as politics, associations, and research institutions are also presented, expanding networking opportunities beyond the DUCAH Forum itself.
Saving Time and Costs
Significant time and cost savings can be achieved through intensive use of the DUCAH network. Particularly valuable is the matching of digital and social innovations with the companies and organizations that apply them—especially through the Impulse Teams.
Leveraging Common Ground
Co-development with other cooperative members and research partners provides a decisive market advantage. Integrating innovative, practice-based ideas strengthens your competitive position. By collaborating in interdisciplinary Impulse Teams and within the Forum, challenges and solutions in the health and social economy can be addressed effectively and in alignment.
Continuous Learning
Be inspired by new technologies and products on the Marketplace. Benefit from the expertise of leading global experts who present the latest trends and developments from industry and academia.

Innovation Spaces for Your Topics and "Wicked Problems"
Within the Impulse Teams, user-centered open innovation spaces are created—bringing together all relevant actors from the value creation network and research. These teams work collaboratively to develop approaches for solving the most pressing challenges (Wicked Problems) and to drive forward both digital and social innovations.
The number of DUCAH Impulse Teams is determined by the number of DUCAH Forum members.
