Our Collaborations
Partnership is at the heart of successful health and care innovation. In our CHI-Zone Collaborations section, we proudly showcase a range of news stories reflecting the impact of our work with national networks, commissioners and providers, and pioneering HealthTech businesses. These stories offer practical insights and inspiration for prospective partners. You’ll find updates on projects as they evolve, testimonials from partner businesses, and concrete examples of how collaboration with the CHI-Zone has accelerated innovation journeys. These stories highlight the breadth of support available and the tangible benefits of working together.
CHI-Zone Fellowship Session 4: From Idea to Impact, Taking Solutions to Market
Session four of the CHI-Zone Fellowship switched us from opportunity exploration and market scoping to building business and delivering solutions to market. The focus was on what it really takes to grow a digital health business, work effectively with the NHS, and stay grounded in purpose and people along the way.
CHI-Zone Fellowship Session 3: Understanding Demand
For the third CHI-Zone Fellowship, our focus shifted from ideas to evidence. We took a deep dive into understanding demand, and discussed the importance of challenging assumptions and ensuring our propositions are grounded in real world evidence.
Taking a wider view, we emphasized that evidence gathering is critical not only to solution development, but to building a credible, defensible commercial narrative.
CHI-Zone Fellowship Session 2: Breaking Moulds & Building Futures
Last week our CHI-Zone Fellowship gathered for the second session — and what a session it was. We travelled to St Helens to visit Glass Futures, heard from two extraordinary innovators, and came away reminded how the best might come from the most unexpected corners.
