HIYH Impact Report 2024 | Page 46

I have thoroughly enjoyed being part of this year ’ s cohort . Both my co-founder and I are currently at the end of our PhDs and have not had any previous experience working in / with the NHS . The Propel @ YH accelerator put all the information we could possibly need into one place about integrating into the NHS and understanding the processes required . It has also been valuable to hear from the other companies about their experiences and struggles . There is no doubt that this accelerator will prove to be useful as we enter the NHS landscape .”
