Digital innovations for technology enabled care

Learn about opportunities in the Digital Health Technology Catalyst at the 13th Digital Ecosystem event on 13 September in Ormskirk, Lancashire.

The North West Coast Connected Health Ecosystem brings together partners from health and social care, industry, academia and patient organisations. They focus on improving health across the North West Coast at the same time as generating economic benefits for the region, partly through the uptake and deployment of digital health solutions.

At Eco 13: Digital innovations for Technology Enabled Care you will hear from a variety of NHS and industry speakers discussing the latest thinking, new developments and innovations. You will have the opportunity to discuss adoption with the innovators and hear how the Innovation Agency can support you in bringing these innovations into your own practice.

Innovate UK and KTN will be speaking about the opportunities available with the Digital Health Technology Catalyst, a new £35 million funding programme to be funded through the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund over the next 4 years. Round 1 of the Digital Health Technology Catalyst competition opened on 31st July with up to £8 million available to fund projects that develop new digital technology solutions to healthcare challenges.
