UK-India HealthTech Bootcamp from March 13

The UK Government is organising a UK-India HealthTech Bootcamp from March 13th – 15th, 2023. This is an exciting opportunity for Indian companies to learn about the UK’s health ecosystem, develop market access strategies, and explore potential overseas partnerships. Created in partnership with the Academic Health Science Network, Yorkshire and Humber, KIIT-Technology Business Incubator, and Bhubaneswar City Knowledge Innovation Cluster Foundation, the Bootcamp will give a 3 day fully funded crash course to 25 selected Indian companies on the UK healthcare market, access to subject matter experts, and the opportunity to engage directly with UK NHS stakeholders. Six companies from this cohort will be selected for a 5-day fully funded, bespoke programme in the UK, where selected startups will get the opportunity to engage directly with the wider Health Tech ecosystem in the UK.

Sarah Fallon, Regional Director, Science and Innovation (India, Middle East, Africa), said that “the boot camp is a great opportunity for UK and India to work together to solve global challenges and create innovative solutions that improve the health and wealth of our two nations. I welcome the opportunity that the boot camp provides to UK’s NHS, and Indian companies, to learn from each other – through the pandemic, we’ve already seen the amazing results that come when we put our brightest health experts together – I’m excited to see what this new cohort of pioneers create and test to improve healthcare of citizens in our countries and beyond”.

BCKIC and KIIT TBI are excited to partner with the UK Government, Academic Health Science Network, Yorkshire, and Humber to make the HealthTech ecosystem robust and sustainable. Collaborations like these will certainly act as a catapult to take your established HealthTech business in India to the UK.
