Commercial interests are put to one side in the group’s activities.
INTEROPen is governed by a Board of Representatives who meet each month to discuss ideas and projects, develop the ambitions of the community and check that progress is in line with INTEROPen’s Vision, Mission and Values.INTEROPen Board members represent interoperability stakeholders from across health and social care.
