London’s Award-Winning Accelerator Programme

The programme helps innovators maximise their ability to engage commercially with the NHS and social care through enhanced connections, credibility, and confidence-building opportunities.

Companies accepted into the DigitalHealth.London Accelerator benefit from:

• Tailored support from an assigned NHS Navigator with NHS clinical or service manager expertise
• Direct engagement with senior stakeholders, clinicians and healthcare experts to ensure their product meets real-world needs
• Opportunities and resources to refine innovations for optimal impact through expert-led workshops and digital health advisors across DigitalHealth.London’s network
• Brokering of meaningful connections between innovators and NHS organisations with specific challenges

Since 2016, the DigitalHealth.London Accelerator has supported 160 digital health companies to scale and thrive in the UK and beyond. As the UK’s leading Accelerator for track record, their alumni (including Huma, DrDoctor, Peppy Health, eConsult, AccuRx and HN) have achieved remarkable success, securing over 745 contracts, 3,706 NHS pilots and launching 88 new products in the NHS market. On average, each £1 of public investment spent on the programme generates £10.90 in economic benefit.

The DigitalHealth.London Accelerator programme is part of the Digital Health.London Business Support for London Project which has received £1,379,257.04 from the UK government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF).

Following the application process, up to 20 UK-registered businesses that have products or services with high potential to meet NHS and social care challenges will be offered a place on the programme. There is no cost charged to companies, but places are subject to UK Subsidy Control rules and have a Minimal Financial Assistance (MFA) value of £35,000.00.

Applications open on Wednesday 8 May 2024 and close at midnight on Sunday 16 June 2024.
