About the project


The PHEMS project consortium aims to transform data-driven R&I activities in pediatrics. The groundbreaking idea is to develop a decentralised health data ecosystem that can overcome barriers to cross-border collaboration on health data, enabling an ecosystem without central data repositories, and safeguarding sensitive personal health data within hospitals. Project will develop new technologies to facilitate authorised access to health data at multiple locations, advancing federated health data analysis with next-generation anonymisation as well as shared rules and governance structures.


Impact of the project:

Enhancing outcomes in pediatric care and accelerating the use of innovative technologies such as AI. The project's success signifies a brighter future for children's health across Europe. The collaboration marks a significant milestone for Spinverse as it demonstrates our ability to support transformative projects with a profound societal impact.

  Funding instrument     Horizon Europe  ​


Spinverse’s role


Spinverse partnered with the consortium to prepare a proposal for the Horizon Europe funding. With our support, the consortium successfully secured €7 million grant from Horizon Europe programme and the UK research funding agency. 

The grant enabled the project to start in October 2023 with a plan to run until September 2026. 



Our partnership with Spinverse has been highly beneficial. Their help in project preparation has been invaluable. I am eagerly looking forward to the significant, positive influence this project will impact on pediatric healthcare​.

About the project


The LIFE Lit4Nature aims to establish a stronger, evidence-based system for biodiversity conservation and restoration across Lithuania.  Major focus will be placed on strengthening the national biodiversity monitoring system, improving data collection and integration and on introducing innovative monitoring approaches to support evidence-based conservation and restoration decisions.


Impact of the project:

The project aims to boost stronger biodiversity and ecosystem recovery across Lithuania through nationwide conservation and restoration. Further, it wants to achieve better national coordination for efficient and well targeted conservation measures and their funding.

  Funding instrument     LIFE Programme  ​


Spinverse’s role


Spinverse experts supported the coordinator throughout the two-stage LIFE Strategic Nature Project application process from concept note development to submitting the final proposal. 

The support included workshops that brought together the proposal team to sharpen the project concept and focus the application on the most relevant and critical aspects of Lithuania's
Prioritised Action Framework for Natura 2000 and the forthcoming National Restoration Plan. 



Spinverse’s strategic guidance, hands-on support and thorough quality reviews helped us focus on the critical aspects, strengthen the proposal logic and present its impacts convincingly. Their LIFE expertise gave our team confidence and contributed significantly to the proposal’s high quality and successful funding outcome.”​
