Health and Welfare Technology Cluster of North Iceland
Veltek brings together 12 municipalities, healthcare institutions, universities and technology companies to find, test and implement solutions that improve services for the people of the region.
Veltek harnesses the strength of companies and institutions in North Iceland, supports innovation in health technology and strengthens its members’ international business connections.
Our health is one of the most important things we have, for each of us and for society. Ultimately, Veltek exists to support the best possible life and prosperity for the people of North Iceland.
Communities stagnate without innovation. By supporting companies in health and welfare technology, Veltek contributes to positive development and new jobs in North Iceland.
When life brings challenges, welfare services often make the difference. Veltek supports the development of new technology, introduces it and puts it into systematic use in North Iceland.
Veltek has a strong network in Iceland and abroad. Health and welfare technology companies from anywhere in Iceland can join it through membership of the cluster.
Providing welfare services cost-effectively has rarely been more important. At Veltek, healthcare institutions, municipalities and the academic community come together to explore and implement solutions that matter.
We make sure the needs of service users in North Iceland reach the market, and we keep an eye on what is on offer in Iceland and abroad.
Veltek invites Icelandic technology companies in health and welfare, wherever they are based, to join the cluster and gain access to its network in North Iceland, across Iceland and abroad.
