Dubbed the “First 100”, the top 100 digital health innovators in the UK are to be showcased in a new campaign to showcase the best of British health tech.
The companies were selected based on criteria including how committed they were to export and international expansion, the global uniqueness of their innovation, a track-record of working collaboratively with Healthcare UK and how well they represented the UK journey and direction in digital health.
