Yesterday, we were delighted to host ‘Pitch Your Product: MedTech 2025’ event, welcoming the finalists of medical device innovators on-site at Pennine HQ. In partnership with Health Innovation East Midlands, the day celebrated the next generation of technologies bringing a brilliant group of pioneers to pitch their ideas set to transform patient care.
We kicked off with a morning of thought-provoking workshops and presentations, exploring why the East Midlands continues to thrive as a MedTech innovation hub. Sessions also covered the critical role of patient and public involvement in shaping future healthcare solutions.
In the afternoon, the spotlight turned to 18 pioneering companies, each delivering a rapid-fire 2-minute pitch to our expert judging panel, including:
Prof Stephen Ryder
Teresa Grieve
James Silverward
Kathryn Fairbrother
Lisa Brewer
Mike Phillips
And our very own CEO, Graeme Cameron
