Strategic Council of the Hub

The Strategic Council of the Health Innovation Hub is the decision-making body that brings together representatives of the three founding members—the Ministry of Health, the G6-UMF University Alliance, and the Local American Working Group—to set the Hub’s objectives and strategic directions, and oversee its overall operations.

The operational team of the Hub supports this national platform’s activities, with an active role in implementing the strategy approved by the Council, coordinating projects, identifying new partnerships and areas for expansion, and promoting the Hub.
