Agreement for hospital innovation and redevelopment in Liguria

Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP) and Liguria Region have signed a Memorandum of Understanding aimed at promoting innovation in public health services for citizens by ensuring support for sustainable infrastructure plans within the region. The partnership will enable the region to grasp opportunities stemming from the InvestEU Programme, drawing on the technical and financial support of CDP in its role as an Advisory Partner to the European Commission, within the European Investment Advisory Hub created by the European Union.

In detail, the Liguria Region, via the Board of Health, is planning to restructure and enhance the efficiency of the services provided to both resident and non-resident populations. As part of this strategy, it intends to implement an investment programme focused on restructuring the local hospital network, potentially including the construction of new buildings. Regional health authorities, hospital trusts, Scientific Hospitalisation and Care Institutes (IRCCS) and private operators may also be involved in this initiative.

CDP's consultancy work for the Liguria Region will primarily involve assisting with the planning of initiatives based on available resources, identifying potential project delivery methods, defining an execution timetable, and developing an impact assessment matrix that will provide a practical tool to aid the decision-making process.
