About the project
The Long Covid (LCS) project, coordinated by HUS, is the first of its kind aiming to clarify the factors and mechanisms for the development of LCS.
Impact of the project:
The impact is not only of scientific significance, but also economic and societal. The project aims to reduce the healthcare burden at least by 30% due to COVID-induced disability across all age groups by predicting the LCS at an early stage. It will also help to prevent the progression of COVID-19 illness to LCS and reduce the percentage of LCS patients by 20% in the future. This research work will also help educate and empower LCS patients and manage them in a holistic manner. From societal perspective, the project aims to increase hope and strength to tackle this disease among the LCS patients.

Spinverse’s role
Specialised in innovation management and management consulting, Spinverse will lead various activities in the project such as identifying ideas and needs to develop new products, solutions and services, as well as ensuring intellectual property protection for them. Spinverse also supports the project with day-to-day project management, helping the project run smoothly throughout the project’s duration of four years.
Spinverse supported the project in preparing the successful funding application.
In large pan-European projects like ours that connect several multidisciplinary groups, it is important to have an experienced and reliable partner such as Spinverse. During an EU grant proposal preparation, there are numerous technical details where a scientist or a physician is totally out of their comfort zone. We really appreciated the timely help and encouragement from the Spinverse team to reach our goal.
