TECSAM Network:
innovation in mental health

  • Our mission: accelerating valorization and transfer of mental health and new technology discoveries to enhance quality of life.
  • Our vision: people with mental health problems receiving timely and high quality treatment.

Disruptive solutions closer to people

  • We promote the participation of people affected by mental health problems.
  • We place particular emphasis on gender issues, considering the double social stigma of being a woman and living with a mental disorder.
