SUMMARY:IN-PERSON EVENT: Perspectives on Preventative Innovations in Healthcare
DESCRIPTION:                     \nInsight 3: Perspectives on Preventative Innovations in Healthcare\nArise Innovation hubs are delighted to be collaborating with Medilink Midlands and Innovate UK in a series of events for autumn and winter 2025/26. The final of these looks at an overarching theme in the NHS’s current 10-year plan\, around how prevention is better than cure. \nThe third of the pillars in the NHS 10-year plan is ‘from sickness to prevention’\, with a focus on reaching patients earlier to prevent illness\, where-ever possible. To achieve this\, we need to look across key areas including health surveillance\, genomic science\, standardised data collection and thoughtful deployment of digital and AI technologies. Reshaping the ways we innovate to make every one of us proactive citizens. \nChallenges we will address in this session include: \n-What needs to change to improve the focus on prevention? \n-How do we use health surveillance data to inform and accelerate new preventative health programmes? \n-How do we move to a data-driven and personalised approach throughout our lives? \nAgenda \n10:00 – 10:30: Arrival\, networking and refreshments \n10:30 – 10:40: Introduction and Welcome by Arise and Innovate UK \nDr Beverley Vaughan| Director | Arise Innovation Hubs \nStephen Goddard | Job Title | Innovate UK \n10:40 – 10:45: Welcome by Medilink Midlands \nRaghul Senthilnathan | Innovation Advisor | Medilink Midlands \n10:45-11:00 Setting the scene I – What does the future look like\, in an ecosystem of health promotion and protection UK Health Security Agency \nNadia Shivji Brown | Senior BDM | UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA)   \nDr Jörg Hoffmann | Regional Deputy Director\, East of England | UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA)  \n11:00 – 11:15: Setting the scene II – From Body Mass Index to Body Volume Index \nRichard Barnes | CEO | Select Research \n11:15 – 11:25: Q&A \n11:25 –11:40: Coffee & Networking Break \n11.40 -12.00: Lightening Pitches \nImran Haq | Managing Director | The Sample Network \nHasan Avcu| Co-Founder & Managing Director | Tesu Health \nDr. Shaobin Wu | Co – Founder | C-Prio Ltd \n12.00-12.20: Support available to Innovators \nDr. Anne Blackwood | Chief Executive | Health Tech Enterprise \nStephen Goddard | Senior Innovation and Growth Specialist | Innovate UK \n12:20 – 12:30: Q&A \n12.30-13.00: Networking lunch \n \nA POLITE REMINDER REGARDING EVENT ATTENDANCE\nWe’re seeing an increase in late cancellations and no‑shows at programme events.
