Digital Transformation
The catalyst for sustainable and safe patient care!
Digitalization has revolutionized the way we work, communicate and obtain information in recent years. In the healthcare sector, digital transformation offers enormous opportunities to improve the quality of medical care and optimize processes.

Are you familiar with the Digital Healthcare Platform OWL?
The Digital Healthcare Platform OWL started in 2018 as a pioneering project with an impressive volume of funding. The goal: to network the five urgent care hospitals in the Paderborn area and the doctors in private practice from the professional association Praxisnetz Paderborn to digitalize and more closely integrate the healthcare sector. This project, in which UNITY was the overall project manager, was successfully completed in 2023, and the operating company Digital Healthcare Platform OWL GmbH was then founded by the project partners. With the UNITY Innovation Alliance as a project partner, we can work together to drive forward the consistent implementation of our vision of the digital healthcare revolution - digital, connected, secure!
