What does testing and validation actually look like in practice for healthcare AI?

 

For many SMEs, this is where an unvalidated solution must prove real clinical value and demonstrate it works for its intended users in real clinical settings.

Navigating data access, testing environments, validation strategies, and certification requirements can quickly become complex, making the transition from development to clinically usable AI a major challenge.

Join this interactive online expert roundtable to explore what the validation journey actually looks like in practice, through the perspective of SMEs, technical experts, and the TEF-Health ecosystem.

 

What to Expect

 

The webinar will explore:

1. a real SME validation journey, from development to clinical readiness

2. practical challenges in testing and validation

3. data and infrastructure requirements for healthcare AI

4. key bottlenecks in moving toward certification

5. what it takes to build trustworthy AI solutions that are viable for real clinical use

The discussion will also highlight how TEF-Health supports SMEs throughout this journey through access to infrastructures, testing environments, validation expertise, and regulatory guidance.
