It’s been an exciting couple of weeks as part of the Small Business Research Initiative SBRI Healthcare Programme, reviewing and advising on funding applications! 💫 SBRI healthcare is all about fast-tracking groundbreaking technologies that could reshape the NHS and wider health and social care system. It’s a platform that supports game-changing ideas, from early-stage concepts to real-world implementation, with the potential to transform patient care, boost NHS efficiencies, and tackle inequalities. 💡 What makes it exciting? The Programme brings together industry, government, regulators, patients, and the NHS, helping entrepreneurs scale innovations at pace and delivering real impact. We’ve seen incredible solutions that align with the NHS’s national strategies, including reducing demand and better signposting, improving patient and public experience, and reducing workforce pressures. 💼 To date, SBRI Healthcare has: ·       Supported 306+ innovations with £140M+ of funding ·       Generated 280+ patents and attracted £680M+ private investment ·       Created 2,235+ jobs ·       And most importantly, improved the lives of millions of patients! 🙌 Check online for future challenge briefs and funding criteria! https://lnkd.in/gyti5ng3 Mary Walker LGC Accelerated Access Collaborative Health Innovation Network #Innovation #NHS #HealthcareRevolution #TechForGood #SBRI #AcceleratingHealthcare

Isn’t it good when evaluation of proposals can appreciate innovative ideas crossing health and care. Imagine a future where procurement hubs at icb level would value creative projects contributing to better health, better care and improved value.
