NHS Innovation Accelerator
The NHS Innovation Accelerator (NIA) is an award-winning NHS England initiative delivered in partnership with England’s 15 Health Innovation Networks, hosted at UCLPartners. The NIA delivers on the commitment detailed within the Five Year Forward View – creating the conditions and cultural change necessary for proven innovations to be adopted faster and more systematically through the NHS, and to deliver examples into practice for patient and population benefit. More recently the NIA was highlighted in the NHS Long Term Plan.
The NIA is committed to sharing learning about innovation adoption and spread with the wider health and care system. Our evaluation stream is helping to broker real-world validation using insight, learning and experience from the Fellows and adoption sites.
