Health innovation

Over the last year, Challenge has been exploring ways of stimulating and supporting innovation in health – from within the health service, and beyond. NESTA's interest in health is broad, focusing on people, services and ways of working as much as on technology and new products.

We are currently looking at options for innovative approaches to addressing the needs of an ageing population.
