GetReal Institute

The GetReal® Institute evolved from two influential programs supported by the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) — the GetReal Project and the GetReal Initiative. These laid the groundwork for our collaborative approach, positioning us as a trusted body focused on facilitating the integration of RWE into healthcare decision-making in Europe.

2013
GetReal Project
The GetReal Project (2013-2017) was established to demonstrate how robust new methods of real-world data (RWD) collection and synthesis could be adopted earlier in pharmaceutical research and development and the healthcare decision-making process..

2018
GetReal Initiative
The GetReal Initiative (2018-2021) continued to drive the adoption of tools, methodologies, and best practices to increase the quality of real-world evidence (RWE) generation in medicines development and regulatory/health technology assessment (HTA) processes across Europe.

2021
GetReal Institute
The GetReal® Institute is established as an independent multi-stakeholder, non-profit forum for collaboration in the adoption and implementation of RWE.
