NHS 10-Year Health Vision

The NHS has three key priorities for the future of healthcare and is currently working on a 10-year plan. If you can demonstrate that your solution is within one or more of these priorities, then it can ease your way into the UK market. The priorities are:

  1. From the hospital to the community
  2. Analogue to digital
  3. Sickness to Prevention

Where does it take place?

The boot camp takes place in Leeds, which has a strong health tech and life science sector. Over 22% of the UK’s digital healthcare jobs are based in the region, and 600 regional companies provide products and services to the healthcare sector.

The Leeds ecosystem includes:

  • 27 NHS organisations, including national organs such as NHS England and NHS Improvement, NHS Digital, NHSX, Public Health England, Health Education England and the NHS Leadership Academy
  • 11 higher educations
  • 250 MedTech companies and 65 dedicated digital health companies
  • 196,000 people are employed in health and life science roles

Starting your export in Leeds is a great opportunity to get your foot in the door of the UK healthcare system and increase the chances of scaling your product to more UK regions.
