We are delighted to invite you to the official kick-off event of EDEN-Medical, a groundbreaking initiative focused on creating a framework for cross-border medical logistics in the Euregio Meuse-Rhine. Taking place on October 28, 2025, at DronePort in Sint-Truiden, this event brings together hospitals, governments, SMEs, and academic institutions to explore how drone transport and digital innovation can transform healthcare delivery. Participants will gain insights into the project’s vision, partners, and technology through keynote presentations, an interactive expert panel, and live demonstrations.
Discover the future of cross-border medical logistics
EDEN-Medical is an ambitious cross-border collaboration, support by Interreg V-A Euregio Meuse-Rhine, that seeks to improve the transport of medical goods—such as medication, blood samples, or laboratory materials—by using urban air mobility (UAM) powered by drones and supported by a modular, open digital infrastructure.
The EDEN-Medical project aims to enable fast and secure deliveries of critical medical goods, such as medications and laboratory samples, through drone technology. By enhancing real-time data sharing between healthcare teams, the project supports better coordination and faster decision-making. It also contributes to the growth of telemedicine, allowing hospitals to offer cross-border consultations and remote care more effectively.
A key focus lies in identifying and overcoming regulatory and infrastructural obstacles that currently hinder seamless cross-border medical logistics. Ultimately, EDEN-Medical seeks to strengthen the overall resilience of healthcare systems, particularly during crises such as pandemics or natural disasters.
EDEN-Medical is a direct response to shared challenges experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic and recent natural disasters, where supply chains and medical coordination faced severe disruptions—highlighting the urgent need for more robust and agile logistics across borders.
Why you should attend
This event is ideal for anyone involved in healthcare, logistics, aviation, or digital innovation—especially those interested in building a more connected, efficient, and crisis-ready healthcare system across borders. It’s a unique opportunity to meet the pioneers shaping the future of medical transport and telemedicine in Europe.
