SUMMARY:OHT Better HealthTech by Design: Better Together: Clinicians + Designers in the NHS
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\n\nExploring why innovation in healthcare often fails at adoption and how a wider\, UX-led approach can create meaningful change long before technology is fully implemented. \n \nDrawing from real NHS case studies across rheumatology\, cardiology\, and neurology\, this session shares lessons from designing services with clinicians\, patients\, and multidisciplinary teams to improve pathways\, reduce friction\, and build trust in complex healthcare environments. \n \nRather than focusing purely on technology\, this talk explores how human-centred design\, collaboration\, and behavioural understanding can drive sustainable innovation in the NHS. \n \nSpeakers\nLaura Smith\, Service Designer and Researcher\, Unboxed \nDr William Bradlow\, Cardiology Consultant\, University Hospital Birmingham

SUMMARY:Digital Poverty: When Access Isn’t Equal
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\n\n\n\nDigital services are increasingly becoming the default way people access healthcare\, public services\, education and employment support. \nBut access isn’t equal. \n \nFor many communities\, digital exclusion is shaped by affordability\, connectivity\, confidence and wider cost-of-living pressures with real consequences for health outcomes and opportunity. \n \nThis event creates space for an open conversation about digital inclusion\, practical solutions and how systems and communities can work together to reduce digital inequality. \n \nNo assumptions. No blame. Just honest discussion about what works and what still needs to change. \n \nKey questions \n\n\nWhen services become “digital by default”\, who gets left behind? \n\n\nHow do device access\, data poverty and affordability affect health and wellbeing? \n\n\nWhat practical solutions are already working locally? \n\n\nHow do policy and grassroots approaches come together?

SUMMARY:Evidencing value in healthcare innovation
DESCRIPTION:As the healthcare landscape evolves\, there is growing national focus on moving beyond cost alone when procuring innovation. Demonstrating wider value\, including patient outcomes\, system impact and operational benefits\, is becoming increasingly important\, yet many innovators face challenges in evidencing this effectively. \nThis webinar will explore how innovators and NHS partners can better evidence value throughout the innovation and procurement journey. Attendees will also learn how we\, at Health Innovation West of England\, can support innovators in generating meaningful evidence to strengthen the case for adoption across healthcare systems. \n\n\nWho should attend?\n\nInnovators working towards evidence generation\, market access and procurement\nNHS organisations and innovation adopters interested in evaluating and implementing healthcare innovation\n\nWhy attend?\n\nGain practical insights into what “value” means in NHS procurement\nLearn how to build stronger evidence to support adoption and commissioning\nHear directly from experts involved in sourcing\, delivering and supplying healthcare products and services across NHS organisations\nUnderstand the support Health Innovation West of England can offer\n\nKey speakers:\n\nKirsty Dodson – NHS Supply Chain\nMike Long – Health Innovation West of England\nSian Thomas – UniWee\n\nWhat will the session include?\nThis webinar will include presentations and insights from expert speakers\, followed by discussion and shared learning around evidencing value in healthcare innovation.
