NHS Innovation Accelerator fellows to be revealed at Rewired 2025

Digital Health Rewired 2025 will host the launch of the next cohort of NHS Innovation Accelerator (NIA) fellows.

Created in partnership between NHS England, the Health Innovation Network and the Accelerated Access Collaborative in 2015, the NIA helps to scale proven healthcare innovations across the NHS, improving patient care and supporting staff.

The accelerator has introduced innovations to more than 3,000 sites, saving the NHS more than £38 million in efficiencies and improvements. It has also secured over £130m in external investment.

Taking place on 19 March 2025 on the Innovation Stage, the launch will host an exclusive panel of NIA founders and guests exploring how NIA innovations are improving patient care and supporting clinical and care staff. Confirmed speakers are:

• Sir Bruce Keogh, former national medical director
• Professor Stephen Powis, national medical director, NHS England
• Amanda Begley, director of digital and transformation, Health Innovation Network
• Tim Horton, associate director, The Health Foundation

Attendees will get the chance to meet the next wave of NIA fellows for first time and hear how their promising innovations aim to impact healthcare services and patients.

The theme for Digital Health Rewired 2025 is ‘accelerating the shift from analogue to digital health’. It will be packed with insights and inspiration for anyone wanting to learn from the UK’s best digital health speakers and NHS case studies.

Rewired 2025 is taking place at the NEC in Birmingham on 18-19 March 2025. To attend the NIA launch, register for free using the code RW2025_NIA.
