Abstract
This paper provides a summary of progress on implementation research conducted to deliver evidence-based informatics infrastructure and guidance resources to advance integrated care in Ireland. (1) Background: The International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP©) R&D centre has progressed with its agenda to advance informatics theory and optimise the nursing contribution within eHealth Ireland. The centre has evolved as a formal multi-disciplinary research centre in Dublin City University expanding its research activity to become the Centre for eIntegrated Care (CeIC). The mission of the CeIC is to advance eIntegrated care in order to improve health and wellbeing of citizens; (2) Methods: In this paper, CeIC offers insights into the specific approaches adopted to realise this vision using Innovation 2.0 and Open Science as an emerging paradigm and rigorous methodology to drive transformational change; (3) Conclusions; we provide here a summary of our activity and discuss our experiences to date. We present detail on our progress through three core viewpoints namely (1) the individual and stakeholder engagement; (2) the development of technology infrastructure and (3) the political process considering the academic role in advancing informatics research. Our conclusions suggest that one needs to intrinsically link all three perspectives and provide focused interactions in order to bring about sustainable change for progression of eHealth.

Summary
As a complex and continuously evolving knowledge domain presents several challenges to the informatics community. One of these challenges is to design and create health technology to support and drive innovation to sustain a healthy society. The Centre for eIntegrated Care (CeIC) launched in May 2018, is engaged in developing and enriching national and international eHealth practices, policies and initiatives [1]. Since the publication of the WHA69.24 resolutions in 2016, the adoption of the framework for people centred health services by national eHealth advisory groups is at different stages of deployment globally, and requires academic and innovative support initiatives to drive structural change [2]. The overarching agenda for CeIC is to assist and produce resources for delivery of Sustainable Development Goal 3
