We are running a competition for our NHS partners to apply for funding of up to £25,000 to fund the early adoption of technologies to address unmet needs in the clinical areas above. We will invite up to 30 companies to showcase their technologies to NHS partners from across the NWC region at the official launch of the competition in Liverpool on 12th May 2015, 09:00 - 13:00.
Important: Places are limited and priority will be given to those companies with solutions that have the potential to make the most impact on patient outcomes and clinical efficiency.
Please note:
1. The competition is only open to applications from NHS partners
2. Attendance at the launch of the competition does not guarantee your solution will be procured
3. Attendance at the launch is not required for your technology to be included in an application from one of our NHS partners
