What does it really take to turn a healthcare innovation into improved patient care?

Join our Innovation Hub and the London Institute for Healthcare Engineering for an interactive day exploring the journey of healthtech innovation, from initial idea to NHS adoption.

Through a series of live debates, expert panels will examine the challenges innovators face at each stage of the process and tackle one key question: whose responsibility is it to move innovation forward?

Whether you're a clinician, surgeon, engineer, researcher, investor, funder, industry professional or involved in NHS adoption, this event offers valuable insights into the realities of bringing new ideas into practice.

🎟️ Places are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Lunch and refreshments are included.
