The Wolfson Economics Prize Subsequent Day One conference streams will focus on ‘Strategy’, ‘Design & Construction’, ‘System Governance’, and ‘Sustainability’. Highlights will include a presentation – in the Strategy stream – on the Wolfson Economics Prize 2021 by Robert Ede, Head of Health & Social Care and Prize Director at ‘think-tank’, Policy Exchange. Policy Exchange says of the prize: “Since 2011, the Wolfson Economics Prize has created a platform for fresh thinking which can challenge orthodoxy in economics and public policy. Entry is free, and open to anyone, with the winner receiving £250,000.” This year’s entrants’ challenge was: ‘How would you design and plan new hospitals to radically improve patient experiences, clinical outcomes, staff wellbeing, and integration with wider health and social care?’ The Judging Panel marked entries from over 250 organisations from 15 countries, including submissions from NHS Trusts, architectural practices, clinicians, and patients. The five finalists will have until the end of this month to expand and refine their submissions, with the overall winner announced in November.
