Access our support and expertise:
We operate as the innovation arm of the NHS in the East Midlands – identifying, testing and spreading new technologies and ways of working to help save NHS money, generate growth and jobs, empower health and care staff, and improve services for patients.
We bring together partners across all sectors involved in health and care.
As well as working across the East Midlands, we are part of the national Health Innovation Network – this means that if we don’t have the answer, we can connect with the other regional health innovation networks to find a solution.
