Digital Health Study: Estonia overtakes Denmark as European eHealth Champion
BERLIN, Jan. 09, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cybersecurity, interoperability, and patient empowerment are major concerns in the European healthcare industry, according to the latest “Annual European eHealth Survey 2019” which surveyed over 500 professionals in the field. The study, which was conducted by HIMSS in cooperation with the management consultancy firm McKinsey & Company, also finds that Estonia has swapped places with Denmark and is now perceived to be the leading eHealth country in Europe; EU citizens, for example, can retrieve medication prescribed electronically by doctors in Finland in Estonian pharmacies.
Major Trends: Patient health records and telemedicine services
The Annual European eHealth Survey 2019, which has now been published in its 3rd edition, shows that the development of the eHealth industry in Europe is increasingly focusing on “patient empowerment”, the ability of patients to not only access and use their own health records, but also to contribute to these records with self-generated data.
Digital patient empowerment requires a more advanced eHealth infrastructure. This seems to be the case in Italy (47%), Netherlands (39%) and the Nordics (34%); these countries are highlighting patient access to information as their key priority. The processing of patient generated data is particularly important to Spain (38%).
The importance of providing telemedicine services has significantly increased when comparing the results over the years. In some countries, like Germany, this rise can be linked to legislative initiatives where new reimbursement schemes incentivize the provision of such services. “In Germany and many other countries providers must speed up empowering patients thru electronic patient records and transparency in treatment outcome. The trend to outpatient treatment will further increase if outpatient provider leverage patient records to keep patients out of hospital,” says Jochen Messember, Partner at McKinsey & Company.
Funding remains prime obstacle
The digital transformation of Europe’s healthcare systems is also facing major challenges: IT funding remains a major obstacle (37%) in particular in the UK, Spain and Germany. The lack of interoperability standards allowing for data exchange between systems (29%) and the shortage of skilled eHealth professionals (28%) are also plaguing the industry.
Jörg Studzinski, Director Research at HIMSS concludes: “The Annual European eHealth Survey 2019 shows that the development of the eHealth industry in Europe is increasingly shifting towards patient empowerment and consumer-initiated digital health. Patient owned health records, their integration into clinical workflows, and telemedicine services will be high on the agenda everywhere. In digitally more advanced regions and countries like the Nordics, the Netherlands and Spain we also see a strong focus on topics like Artificial Intelligence and Healthcare Analytics. However, many of these capabilities will enter the market with some delay due to lack of funds and workforce shortages.”

The European eHealth Survey 2019 is supported by the international management consulting firm McKinsey & Company and provides insight into the current priorities, challenges and trends of the eHealth industry in Europe. From September to October 2019, HIMSS surveyed over 500 eHealth experts in 30 European countries. The annual eHealth Survey has been investigating varying and recurring topics in the industry since 2017. The quantitative survey was aimed at all healthcare stakeholders in Europe: health care professionals such as doctors, nurses, IT leaders and management, policymakers, consultants, researchers and health IT software companies participated.

Marketing Intelligence Platform Funnel Acquires Measurement Firm Adtriba
The acquisition combines Funnel’s data collection and analysis acumen with Adtriba’s complex machine-learning measurement tools, optimized for the likes of Adidas and Sony
STOCKHOLM, Sweden and HAMBURG, Germany, June 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Funnel (www.funnel.io), the marketing intelligence platform, has today announced its acquisition of the marketing measurement company Adtriba (www.adtriba.com). The move expands and enhances Funnel’s product offering, building on its core Data Hub and visualization to offer more advanced marketing analytics and Unified Marketing Measurement (UMM). The acquisition consolidates Funnel’s position as a global frontrunner in marketing intelligence with the company generating more than $50 million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR).
At a time when it is becoming increasingly complicated to collect, analyze and measure marketing data from online and offline channels, this acquisition strengthens the sophistication of Funnel’s marketing insights. Funnel’s thousands of customers will be provided with a market-first integrated measurement technology, based on Adtriba’s capabilities, within one unified platform.
Marketing is often a company’s biggest investment, and yet many elements of advertising campaign effectiveness remain intangible and unquantifiable to the marketers who design them. Working with the likes of Adidas, Sony, FlixBus and Samsung, Funnel and Adtriba’s combined solution accurately identifies the impact of budgetary spend and campaign ROI through an AI-powered model that triangulates marketing mix modelling (MMM), multi-touch attribution (MTA) and incrementality testing methodologies.
In 2021, the marketing attribution software market was valued at $3.1 billion, boosted by the expansion of online marketing channels and emerging technologies such as cloud computing and AI-powered solutions. Growing at a CAGR of 15.5% from 2022 to 2031, the market is projected to reach $12.9 billion by 2031.
Fusing Data Intelligence and Machine Learning
Founded in Stockholm in 2014, Funnel has grown to over 300 employees and is trusted by globally recognized brands such as Home Depot and Uber, as well as agency clients across B2B and B2C like Publicis and Havas. Data gleaned from every marketing channel, from Google Ads to LinkedIn, Salesforce to Facebook Ads, is collated and presented across easy-to-use dashboards in Funnel’s Data Hub to support companies with the gathering, reporting and exporting of information.
Hamburg-headquartered Adtriba has grown to 18 employees since launching in 2015 and has been used by multinational companies like FlixBus and Montblanc for data-driven marketing measurement and optimization across all channels.
In the coming months, Adtriba’s software will be fully incorporated into Funnel’s platform, creating an integrated marketing intelligence platform for measurement and ‘triangulation’ through blending MMM, MTA and incrementality testing methodologies. Combining these methodologies is the best way to measure marketing activities accurately and to determine what is working and why. With more businesses shifting from pure performance marketing to holistic full-funnel approaches, it is crucial to track marketing spending impact, particularly in the upper funnel.
Measurement has been largely inaccessible to companies due to its perceived cost, complexity, and lack of real-time updates. Restrictions on third-party cookies, privacy and data collection on iOS and Android, and relying on last-click tracking have all made measuring more difficult. By integrating Adtriba’s proprietary, machine-learning-powered measurement technology into Funnel’s Marketing Intelligence platform, measurement becomes faster, more affordable, and more accurate, removing barriers to entry for marketers. This holistic marketing measurement, referred to as UMM, is at the forefront of data analytics and has previously been restricted to larger enterprises.
Partnership-turned-Full Acquisition
Owing to Funnel and Adtriba’s multi-year partnership that predates this deal, the acquisition is a natural step towards the delivery of a robust solution for existing and future customers, providing a strong and technologically sound value-add.
As before, the workforces at both companies will continue their activity in Sweden and Germany respectively. Adtriba’s employees will contribute to the Funnel product team and maintain their Hamburg office, and the marketing and sales teams will merge. Both companies’ existing customers will be shared after this acquisition without disrupting Funnel and Adtriba’s product offerings.
As soon as this fall, Funnel’s Marketing Intelligence platform will be greatly enhanced by Adtriba’s solution, expanding the scope for what brands can do with their marketing budgets and offering solution partners a broader, more deeply integrated platform.
Fredrik Skantze, CEO of Funnel, says: “It is one thing to offer clients data and information about their marketing spend; it is quite another to give them marketing intelligence. Add to this Adtriba’s proprietary, world-class measurement technology and this is a very powerful tool for marketers. At Funnel, we are bold in wanting to be the definitive Marketing Intelligence Platform. Through this acquisition, we are well on the way to achieving that goal. If our previous partnership with Adtriba is any indication, I am more than confident this deal will be a success. We are pleased to be welcoming Adtriba’s team to Funnel and we cannot wait to begin the integration of our technologies.”
Adtriba CEO János Moldvay — who will become VP of Measurement at Funnel — adds, “As Adtriba continues to compete in the measurement technology arena, we are thrilled to announce this next step in our journey. Measurement platforms are dependent on accurate, and timely data that shows a complete picture, something that is out of reach for many businesses in our space. However, through our previous partnership with Funnel, we identified their Data Hub as a key differentiator for our measurement product. By integrating Adtriba into Funnel’s Marketing Intelligence platform, Adtriba will more effectively compete in the measurement market and access a large base of data-driven companies at the top of their game.”
