Twenty companies selected for DigitalHealth.London’s flagship accelerator

Twenty innovative companies poised to meet London’s NHS and social care challenges have been selected to take part in DigitalHealth.London’s flagship accelerator programme.

Now in its fifth consecutive year, the programme has provided support to a number of successful digital innovations now used in the NHS.

Many of the digital products and services currently providing vital innovation, support and capacity to the NHS during the response to Covid-19, have come through the accelerator programme, DigitalHealth.London said in a statement.

This year’s cohort features innovations from patient self-management tools and femtech, to digitising NHS processes as well as artificial intelligence and cutting-edge machine learning.

Jenny Thomas, programme director at DigitalHealth.London, said: “This year has been a defining moment for digital health as it has been at the forefront of the Covid-19 response and will continue to be part of our country’s recovery in the months and years ahead.

“These 20 SMEs are all ones to watch and we look forward to working with them and playing our part in supporting the NHS and social care through digital transformation.”

Tara Donnelly, chief digital officer at NHSX, added: “The DigitalHealth.London Accelerator is part of a digital revolution in the NHS that continues rapidly to develop, and we will continue to support innovative organisations delivering ground-breaking work.

“This programme has established itself as an important player in supporting the NHS and social care to make the most of the opportunities digital healthtech offers.”

One of the companies selected for the accelerator was a top four finalist in the 2020 Pitchfest competition held at the Digital Health Rewired conference and exhibition in March.
