The Medipex NHS Innovation Awards aims to uncover and showcase innovative ideas for new technologies and other interventions designed to deliver patients' benefits and improved services. Identification of these ideas enables the Medipex team, and the innovator’s employing organisation, to provide bespoke advice and hands-on support to assess and progress those ideas with the most potential. Around 1000 new ideas have been identified this way since the start of the awards in 2005.
