New West of England Commercialisation Academy: Free eight-week programme for health and care innovators

Published on August 28, 2024

Supporting health and care innovators increase uptake of their products in the NHS, Health Innovation West of England is launching an exciting new training programme in partnership with Triple Chasm.

Starting on 10 October 2024, the West of England Commercialisation Academy is a free eight-week programme designed to support innovators who are seeking wider adoption and scale of their solutions across health and care services. Successful applicants will join weekly workshops guiding them through the development of their strategic commercialisation plans.

The programme is based on the Triple Chasm ModelĀ®, which provides a holistic data-driven framework, devised following research into around 3,000 products taken to market.

Innovators, companies and VCSEs with an adoption-ready health and care innovation with some level of early traction, ideally already selling into the NHS, based anywhere in the UK can apply.

Sam Dods, Chief Operating Officer and co-founder, Triple Chasm said:

ā€œWe’re really excited to be working with the Health Innovation West of England team - supporting a number of later-stage health and care innovators to navigate the most challenging stage of the commercialisation journey from successful prototyping and early customer traction to development of a scalable business model.ā€

Alex Leach, Deputy Director of Programmes, Health Innovation West of England said:

ā€œHealth Innovation West of England is committed to supporting impactful innovations gain traction across the NHS – something we know can be extremely challenging. We believe this programme from Triple Chasm will upskill innovators with additional tools and knowledge and will offer a substantial benefit to successful companies.ā€

Applications are open now and close on Sunday 8 September 2024.
