We worked with the NHS Innovation Hub South West (NISW) to support them in the delivery of an organisational objective to increase levels of staff innovation. Together we developed an implementation plan and supported them to acquire appropriate funding that enabled them to introduce a new innovation and intellectual property exploitation service model, known as ImpaKt (Innovation in Medical Practice through Applied Knowledge Transfer).
Programme Impact
Pera Consulting staff worked closely with NISW to develop a group of Trust Innovation Leaders – NHS staff who acted as catalysts for the development of an innovation culture within the Trusts.
A key component of the contract was the development and delivery of a training programme for NHS staff on innovation management and commercialisation, a programme which was accredited to Level 5 by the Chartered Management Institute.
