NHS Innovation Accelerator

The NHS Innovation Accelerator (NIA) exists to accelerate the uptake of high-impact, evidence-based innovations across the NHS and wider health and care system.

Sitting at the intersection of health, innovation, and systems, we connect innovators with NHS stakeholders, patients, and decision-makers to unlock scalable solutions. Through tailored support, expert mentoring, and shared learning, we help overcome barriers to adoption and embed innovation where it’s needed most.

Our mission is to drive meaningful change by improving patient outcomes, supporting workforce sustainability, and enabling a more efficient, collaborative system that learns from what works and scales it effectively.
