RaDar - Rapid Detection and control system for Antimicrobial Resistance - Public Procurement of Innovation (-) . 2022 - 2024 . Ref.101036228 . COSME . PI: Limon, E . RaDAR project aims to address the European urgent need of a rapid detection and effective infection control system for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) through the implementation of a value-based cross-border collaborative procurement of innovative solutions. The common identification of the needs by a cross-border group of 4 procurement organisations (from ES, FR and IT) will promote an increased impact of the adopted innovation and will collaboratively give response to the current AMR problem affecting the European Union (EU). Partners: RaDAR is composed of a cross-border Buyers Group composed of 4 public organisations from 3 different European countries (France, Spain and Italy) who will collaboratively work to act as early adopters and promote innovation, through the identification, evaluation and procurement of innovative solutions that will address their common needs related to one of the most important challenges that are currently present in the political agenda in EU and worldwide. Complementarily, a diverse and carefully selected supporting entities will ensure that the Buyers Group execute a procurement of innovative solutions that will meet both Consortium and individual needs. https://radar-ppi.com/
