• Visikon : end-to-end digital health communication by combining technology with clinical knowledge and animated narratives .
The Boot Camp was delivered in partnership with Leeds City Council , Nexus at the University of Leeds , Barclays Eagle Labs and Hill Dickinson solicitors along with content from various other subject matter experts .
Over the five days we delivered structured masterclasses on the NHS , covering :
• Growth and spread
• Evidence and evaluation
• Governance
• Legal
• Funding , finance and grants .
As well as bringing innovators into the region , this year for the first time , we took the Propel @ YH overseas to India for a taster of the Boot Camp . The purpose of the trip was to act as a final part of a selection process to identify Indian innovator companies that were ready to come to the UK market . The application call covered the whole of India , and we received 148 innovator applications . After review , 48 were selected to pitch . From this we used our expertise and skills to decide on the final 25 innovators who were the furthest ahead in their journey . These innovators had a range of HealthTech products and services , some digital , some devices and a few AI solutions .
We already have a healthy pipeline of future international Boot Camps covering the Canadian and Middle East territories and look forward to working with other international territories to import innovation into the UK .
