One of our flagship projects in the digital healthcare domain, TRUMPET, was successfully completed following its final review meeting held on December 3-4, 2025, in Barcelona, Spain. The project partners discussed the key aspects of the project in detail, presented their achievements, and talked about the challenges they faced and mitigated throughout the project phases.
Key Discussions
The following is a Summary of the topics covered during the review meeting:
Project Progress & Compliance:
- Completion status of the previous recommendations, pending requirements, and compliance aspects (e.g., healthcare professional use, open-source scope).
- Verification of deliverables
Technical Review:
- Demonstration of the TRUMPET platform, dashboards, backend, data acquisition, and validation activities
- Presentation of performance validation, scalability testing, and privacy measurement outcomes
Dissemination & Media:
- Wider communication and dissemination strategy
Regulatory & Sustainability Discussions:
- Alignment with the European Health Data Space (EHDS), including its architecture (Health Data Access Bodies + Secure Processing Facilities)
- Maintaining platform availability, operational cost reduction, and exploitation beyond the project (e.g., PETRAI)
Preparation for the Final Review:
- Key Performance Indicator (KPI) achievements, user-satisfaction metrics and scalability metrics
What Did TVS Present?
Mohammad Ashadul Hoque, one of the Directors at Technovative Solutions and the project lead for TRUMPET, led the team from TVS to participate in the meeting and presented the updates from his organisation. Md Nurujjaman Nur, Technical Lead at TVS, also joined the meeting virtually. We recently spoke with Mr Nur about the final review meeting to prepare this blog.
Throughout the project, TVS was responsible for overseeing two specific tasks:
- Data acquisition, integration, and system validation. Within this task, comprehensive documentation and open-source repositories were completed. Real-world datasets across partners were successfully integrated, and interoperability infrastructure was prepared.
- Developing the TRUMPET platform and creating a dashboard. The task covers the full development of Cloud Dashboard (frontend and backend), Listener Service, Data Owner Node, and Federated Learning core (FL-Core).
In the review meeting, TVS particularly presented a comprehensive overview of the progress made in the last quarter.
For the first task, the integration of inputs from different Data Owner Nodes was displayed, and ensuring consistent ingestion and management of heterogeneous healthcare datasets were discussed.
For the second task, along with collaborative federated learning and privacy-preserving features, the TRUMPET platform and dashboard were demonstrated live. The TVS representatives talked about the architecture, development, and documentation of the TRUMPET Cloud Dashboard, TRUMPET Cloud Backend, TRUMPET Listener Service, Data Owner Node, and FL-Core. Source code repositories, live deployment links, outcomes of pen-testing activities and applied mitigations were also covered during the presentation.
Additionally, TVS has integrated the real-world datasets across partners and prepared an interoperability infrastructure.
Collaboration Defined Success
A proper and meaningful collaboration among the partners is like the blood circulation of a project. The nature of the TRUMPET project demands cooperative and responsive partners, which was clearly demonstrated. The partners worked collaboratively across multiple components, such as requirements, pilots, dissemination, validations, and compliance. They were also involved in complementary tasks under effective coordination. The partners were jointly engaged with these activities:
● Script co-writing (with Gradient)
● KPI data collection
● Validation and testing
● Performance validation
Expected Impacts
TRUMPET is now a secure, complete and functional dashboard integrated with multiple data owners and a federated learning module. Dashboards enabling transparency and monitoring are implemented in the platform, where performance validation and scalability assessments are performed.
From the very beginning of the implementation, the TRUMPET project aimed to preserve data privacy and enhance AI research in healthcare. As the project reached the end of implementation, the following impacts on the healthcare sector are expected in the near future.
● Secure Multi-site Data Analysis: Healthcare institutions can collaborate without sharing raw data, fitting both European Health Data Space (EHDS) expectations and clinical research needs.
● Improved Transparency & Governance: Dashboards help track activity, enhancing trust for clinical stakeholders.
● Alignment with EHDS regulatory infrastructure, especially its secure-processing model.
● Reusability for new research projects (e.g., PETRAI) and cross-border collaborations.
● Opens the door to scalable privacy-preserving AI in real-world hospital environments.
What’s Next?
Though the TRUMPET project is officially closed now, the activities will continue for several more months. The platform availability will be maintained for a minimum of six months, and the cost-optimisation measures will be evaluated soon after the project closure. To gather the user satisfaction data, a poll will be conducted soon via CitizenTone, a citizen engagement platform developed by TVS.
The project is not limited to just one, rather, to amplify the impact, the consortium has already become affiliated with another similar project, FLUTE. The TRUMPET platform is being continuously refactored and its code improved for the FLUTE project.
The consortium also plans to exploit the project results. Hence, the platform remains operational to support PETRAI or other exploitation initiatives, and aligns with the EHDS frameworks so that hospitals, research institutes, and future EU-funded projects can potentially adopt TRUMPET’s solution.
The Bottom Line
At the closing stage of the TRUMPET project, as the platform is fully developed, demonstrated, and technically validated, and the source code and live deployments are now ready, it can be said that the months-long effort of the partners has resulted in success. This is the time to assess the project impacts and exploit the results.
As the leader in developing the core technological solution and documentation, and also responsible for other key tasks such as KER execution, demo video production, and support commitments, TVS is proud to be a part of the TRUMPET project.
About TRUMPET
The TRUMPET (Trustworthy Multi-site Privacy Enhancing Technology) project aims to develop a platform based on Armoured Federated Learning for researchers and solution developers. The platform will enable solution developers to create tools for healthcare professionals that allow them to analyse their own patient data and compare it with data from other hospitals and research centers while maintaining patient privacy and anonymity in accordance with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) European policy.
Trumpet project has received funding from a Research and Innovation action activity under Horizon Europe Framework Programme with Grant Agreement No.101070038
