Pit Stop 5 is complete! 🌟 We had an insightful two days at the Goldsmiths Centre in London, diving deep into the world of funding! A huge thank you to all our incredible participants, partners, and supporters who generously shared their expertise and championed this event. Our brilliant lineup of speakers, including Steven Hess, Hinnah Rafique, Nuala Foley, John Spindler, Anton Lin, Ian Newington, Chris Rowe, Kalon Hewage , and Dr Milla Marinova , truly inspired us all. There was some fantastic information for innovators, but a few quotes from the two days really stuck with us: “Listen to those who challenge you.” “The point is to try and find people who share your values, want to solve the same problem, but have fundamentally different experiences and perspectives so that you can be intelligently challenged as a group." “…great businesses are not sold, they’re bought.” “Some of my biggest supporters and investors were not on board at the beginning. But what did I do? Every 6 months I sent an update and kept them informed... It is all about relationships.” We look forward to seeing everyone at our next Pit Stop event in Belfast! 🌟 Finally, all recordings, slides, and links will be made available on the community hub over the next few weeks.

Busy week at CEP HQ! We had an incredible session for Allied Health Professionals on Tuesday with Dr. Janice St. John- Matthews [DProf] and Sarah Cooper from Office of the Chief Allied Health Professions Officer. The event showcased four of our amazing NHS Clinical Entrepreneur Programme #AHP entrepreneurs: Tim Allardyce, Mary Hyacinth Tondo, Caroline McCallum, and Peter May. They shared their experiences with the NHS CEP, highlighting the benefits they’ve gained—from developing an #MVP of their app and meeting co-founders to receiving support from #mentors and business leaders, and their personal and career development. I loved Mary’s final comment to anyone thinking about applying to the programme: “I’d say, just go for it. Be not afraid, and if you believe that you can make a difference, then you will.” Last night, we had an event close to my heart as the CEP, in collaboration with the Alzheimer's Society 💙 launched the Dementia Innovators Programme. We hope this initiative will support those working on new and novel ideas in #dementia care. The event in London was an opportunity to learn more about this collaboration, the fantastic work the Alzheimer’s Society does, and to meet some incredible innovators, patient representatives, leaders and mentors in this space. From #AI to rapid testing, social care initiatives, and #education platforms to support those working with people with dementia, it was a fantastic evening highlighting the scope of innovations already out there. A huge thank you to everyone who attended—from our amazing clinical entrepreneurs Deb Gompertz, Bernadette Porter MBE, Frances Duffy, Benyamin Deldar, and Shuler Xu, MD to the team at the Alzheimer’s Society including Simon Lord, Michael W., Morven Lean, and of course, patient volunteer Eric Deeson, whose experience and expertise around dementia provided essential food for thought to any innovators working in this space. We are incredibly proud to be working with the Alzheimer’s Society on this project, so if you would like to know more or how to apply this October, please visit the CEP website – thank you 💙 https://lnkd.in/ezTdzc7r If you missed either of these events recordings will be made available shortly on our website 📽 #nhscep #dementiainnovation #ahp #healthtech #patientsfirst #innovation #healthcareinnovation #nhs Tony Young Tamsin H.
