INEA becomes HaDEA
INEA ceased operations on 31 March 2021. The European Health and Digital Executive Agency (HaDEA) was established on 1 April 2021 to take over the CEF Telecom legacy portfolio as well as additional EU funding programmes.
This means that, pursuant to Article 16 of this Decision, HaDEA has taken over all the legal commitments of the former granting authority and has been subrogated in its rights and obligations.
The new granting authority has assumed the rights and obligations under the eIDE4Spain Agreement with effect from 1 April 2021.
The HaDEA manages European programmes and initiatives on behalf of the European Commission. It works closely together with its parent Directorate-Generals which are focused on legislative and strategic tasks in policy making. These are specifically DG CNECT, DEFIS, GROW, RTD and SANTE which is the lead DG for the HaDEA.
The HaDEA addresses the European Commission’s ambition to help rebuild a post-COVID-19 Europe at its heart, which will be greener, more digital, more resilient and better fit for the current and forthcoming challenges the HaDEA.
