Why France? 

France is the fifth-largest economy worldwide, and the second-largest economy in Europe. The health outcomes in France are ranked among the best in the European Union, with spending on healthcare being around 11.5% of GDP, higher than the EU average. According to the WHO, there are two main reasons for the success of the French healthcare system: (1) “It is extremely open and communicative with patients and families, which reaps significant patient safety benefits;” and 2) “it has far more doctors per capita. The result is that physicians want patients and patients have a choice.” 

French organizations are more and more open to collaboration in research and development projects, however, these tend to be oriented towards Germany, UK, Italy and the United States. A strong network of health innovation clusters (Les pôles de compétitivité en santé) is present in the different regions of France. Their main aims are to: stimulate innovation, support the development of SMEs, grow internationally, and to offer high-level infrastructures.
