Do you work with medical applications of AI… and thus medical technology (medtech)? Are you involved in medtech R&D? Have you encountered a challenge related to the development, innovation, and/or implementation of medtech that you would like to explore? Have you wondered whether others face the same challenge? Welcome with your application for VMTA Learning case project funding!

The West Swedish MedTech Arena (VMTA) is now opening a call for project funding to support learning cases that enhance the development and implementation of medical technologies—from early‑stage concepts to realized patient benefit.

VMTA invites applications from project teams that bring together medical and technical expertise to collaboratively address practical challenges related to medtech development and deployment. A learning case should not only resolve a specific barrier within the applying project but also produce generalizable knowledge that strengthens collaboration, processes, and innovation capacity across healthcare, academia, and industry.

Funding may be used to address challenges related to cross‑sector collaboration, legal and ethical considerations, regulatory compliance, or other structural issues affecting medtech innovation. Each project may receive up to SEK 400,000 for a period of up to twelve months, with no co‑funding requirements. The next evaluation round closes on 20 April 2026.
