Since 2018, the Personalised Healthcare (PHC) Catalyst Alliance has been active to increase understanding of the importance, opportunities and challenges for Personalised Healthcare.
In late 2019, the Personalised Healthcare Catalyst Foundation was established with the aim of accelerating the transition to personalised care. The Foundation has emerged from the Alliance and is also entirely at the service of the PHC Alliance and its goals.This is reflected in the implemented governance model. It includes a Supervisory Board and an Advisory Board consisting entirely of members of the Alliance.
The Board manages the Foundation and guarantees the continuity of the Foundation by taking care of the financial health of the Foundation. The Board is also responsible for recruiting (inviting), informing, activating and involving (in projects) members of the Alliance.
