Innovation Showcase

The aim of the Showcase is to encourage innovation activity across the NHS. Innovations profiled can lie anywhere between proof of concept and those that exist but are new to the NHS, and can be drawn from any discipline.

The examples chosen are not exhaustive of innovative ideas in any given field but are simply exemplars that may deliver measured benefits to both patients and the NHS.

The NIC uses an open, fair and transparent process to select Showcase examples. If you have an innovation that you believe will be of interest, please complete the Scorecard at http://scorecard.nic.nhs.uk/
