INNOVATION
programmes such as SBRI Healthcare, the NHS Innovation Accelerator (NIA) and the Innovation Technology Payment (ITP). The Government is providing £2 million to give more patients access to proven innovations through the Accelerated Access Collaborative (AAC). We are delivering all these programmes right across the country. Seven innovative technology areas were identified by the AAC that improve patients’ lives but are not currently available to everyone who could benefit. This first batch of ‘rapid uptake’ products includes a range of treatments for conditions identified as clinical priorities within the Long Term Plan such as cancer, heart disease and multiple sclerosis. Across the AHSN Network, our shared ambition with the NHS is to ensure high quality, evidence-based solutions are put to work for patient benefit as quickly as possible enabling prevention of ill-health, earlier diagnosis, more effective treatments, better outcomes and faster recovery. Ours is not a short-term challenge but our collective impact to date has been significant: l £87,976,755 of inward investment leveraged by the AHSNs
l 499 jobs created by companies supported by the AHSNs
l 178 strategic partnerships have been formed between AHSNs and companies.
These statistics were gathered as part of the AHSN Networks industry survey earlier this year. The Network then published a MedTech Landscape Review, providing an essential guide for companies looking to successfully develop and roll out innovations in this complex and diverse industry. As you can see, our thriving digital and medtech industry means there are plenty of reasons to feel positive about the future. Collaboratively working across the NHS, industry and academia will be key to that.
The AHSN Network at Medica 2019
We’ll be hosting a small community of UK innovators as part of the ABHI UK Pavilion at Medica for the first time in 2019. We have three objectives for the show. Most importantly, we want to introduce five of the UKs exciting healthtech innovators to the international market. Secondly, we’re aiming to gain a better understanding of the needs of international health systems and organisations so that we can match them with NHS organisations and innovators that might have solutions for them. Finally, we expect to make first contact with innovators from outside the UK with a view to helping them understand how the AHSN Network can help them bring their solutions to the NHS.
The United Kingdom has an increasingly ageing population and so we need to come up with ideas and improvements that enable people to maintain their independencefor as long as possible.
