#InnovateForLife - IPHA

Innovate For Life 2024

Innovate For Life 2024 throws a spotlight on the personal stories of innovation and how new medicines can literally change the trajectory of someone’s lives. Unfortunately, patient care in Ireland is not as good as it could be. IPHA believes that every patient in Ireland should have fast and fair access to the latest treatments available.

Let’s give every patient in Ireland the chance to create new memories.
