techUK is working with the New Hospital Programme to host an online market briefing on 8 November to share details on the role of digital transformation in new hospital design, delivery and operations.
The first half of the session will provide an insight into the New Hospital Programme, including key aspects, overarching strategy, and pipeline of opportunities. The second half of the session will provide an introduction and look at the work being led by the digital workstream of the programme, including its vision, ambition and where it fits into the wider digital health and care landscape.
This briefing is part of the New Hospital Programme’s ongoing market engagement process, through which the programme is calling upon the knowledge and experience of the widest breadth of suppliers. Organisations can express interest and find out more here.
