Taranto, July 22nd 2025 – iVis Technologies is proud to announce that it has been awarded among the official participants of the IPCEI Tech4Cure program, a strategic program launched by the European Commission to support technological innovation in sectors with the highest social and industrial impact.
The IPCEI is a key tool for strengthening the Union’s strategic autonomy by supporting highly innovative projects and fostering cooperation among Member States. Admission to the programme represents formal recognition of the scientific, technological, and systemic value of iVis’ 4D Suite project.
The project aims to revolutionize the current paradigm of corneal surgery by introducing an integrated platform capable of fully automating and remotely managing, in real time, the entire clinical workflow of Screening, Diagnosis, Treatment, and Follow-up of corneal diseases and refractive errors.
Beyond its technological scope, the initiative includes the development of new technical standards for remotely controlled surgery, as well as the creation of a harmonized legal and regulatory framework among EU Member States, making remote surgery feasible not only from a clinical perspective but also from a legal, fiscal, and insurance standpoint.
With a total project value of €60 million, the initiative reflects both the ambition and the strategic significance of the effort. iVis is committed to contributing to the creation of a fairer, more modern, and interoperable healthcare system, where access to quality care is no longer dependent on a patient’s geographic location or the on-site availability of specialized personnel.
iVis champions a vision in which the 4D Suite platform becomes a game changer not only for Europe but globally. In addition to setting new technical and regulatory standards for remote surgery, the project paves the way for applications in fields beyond medicine, such as industrial robotics, remote immersive training, and predictive maintenance of critical infrastructure.
