WORLDWIDE INITIATIVE AT THE READY: GRAPEVINE TO ADVANCE GLOBAL IT STANDARDIZATION

Extending IHE standards from healthcare to various industries 

​

Berlin/Vienna, 25 April, 2017 – Presentation of the global standardization campaign at conhIT, Europe’s leading event for healthcare IT: interoperability as a win-win situation for all involved. 

​

The ability of different manufacturers’ hardware and software systems to communicate with one another and to work together as seamlessly as possible is a prerequisite for subjects of the future such as Industry 4.0, Smart Cities or Internet of Things (IoT). Interoperability is becoming increasingly important, as data has to be exchanged more effectively, cost-effectively, and faster. Expensive and inefficient proprietary systems are neither modern nor future-oriented. This is precisely where grapevine comes in – a manufacturer-independent initiative that brings together IT providers, suppliers and integrators with the aim of establishing a global standardization in data exchange, thus enabling the interoperability of various systems.
