Health Tech innovators from Australia will visit the East Midlands next week, as part of Investment NSW and NSW Government’s ‘Going Global Export’ Health Innovation Programme.
Delivered by Health Innovation East Midlands (HIEM) in collaboration with Leicestershire Academic Health Partners, delegates will spend two days in Leicester as part of a wider visit to the UK coordinated by Investment NSW.
The cohort will meet with representatives from across the East Midlands health and care system and inward investment. The visit will showcase the East Midlands’ state of the art facilities and excellence at health research and innovation – developing and spreading technologies that are helping the NHS save money and transform patient care – and will aim to open opportunities for investment into the East Midlands.
HIEM Commercial Manager Alison Mlot said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming our guests from Australia – this is a fantastic opportunity to showcase the great work going on in health research and innovation within the East Midlands and reinforce our region’s deserved reputation as a fantastic place to do business.”
Emma Stevens, Associate Director for Trade and Investment at Investment NSW said: “There are many synergies between Australia and the United Kingdom, and with the free trade agreement now almost a year old, we’re looking forward to developing partnerships and exploring export and investment opportunities.
“Regions such as the East Midlands offer great opportunities, such as access to an expert workforce, state of the art facilities, a strong research & business partnerships that fosters innovation, and leaders who are forward thinking and dedicated to the success of their regions.”
