We're now @InnoScot Health - Accelerating ideas that transform healthcare.
Continuing to engage with NHS staff and work in partnership with NHS Scotland to inspire, accelerate and commercialise impactful healthcare innovations.
What a great opportunity for young innovators - do share this with anyone you know looking for some funds and help to develop and grow their green / sustainability ideas in and with Scottish island communities @HeriotWattUni @ThinkUHI and @RobertGordonUni
Young entrepreneurs and startups across Orkney, Shetland and the Outer Hebrides are set to benefit from a £1.3 million programme to develop and grow their innovative ideas, with the hope of creating sustainable green jobs across the island groups.
