The Bosch Digital Innovation Hub (BDIH) - Koordinierungsstelle Telemedizin Baden-Württemberg (KTBW), originally located at the Mannheim Medical Faculty of Heidelberg University, serves as an academic networking platform and catalyst for digital health innovations and innovative models of care, with the aim of translating these innovations into practical application.

Translation and implementation, the development of appropriate framework conditions and regulatory sandboxes, the early involvement of stakeholders and co-creation, intelligent data utilization, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI), and the promotion of digital health literacy to healthcare professionals and the public are core topics of the BDIH - KTBW. Its overarching goal is to help shape successful healthcare delivery for the future.

The BDIH - KTBW is tasked with connecting the diverse interests and expertise in the field of digital medicine across Baden-Württemberg. To this end, it supports and coordinates a range of projects, identifies synergies to create added value, and ultimately contributes to the development of strategies for sustainably improving healthcare in the state.
