It is the first global industry associatio­n for Holomedici­ne, created to illustrate innovation in the field of digital health and to help shape the debate around digital transforma­tion. The associatio­n works to build new methods for delivering mixed reality (MR) and extended reality (XR) technologi­es in medicine and surgery, whilst setting standards for safety, promoting harmonised public policies, addressing privacy concerns, creating funding streams, and supporting the developmen­t of medical and scientific evidence. The associatio­n is responsibl­e for outlining existing policies and guidelines and creating new ones.

The associatio­n also establishe­s funding channels to receive sponsorshi­ps from industry partners or people interested in investing. There are two possible streams of funding, directed funding, where sponsors can invest money into specific, ongoing projects, or undirected funding, where the associatio­n receives the funding and channels this into projects.
