Propel Healthtech West Yorkshire is inviting innovators with ambitious healthtech solutions to apply for the next cohort of its flagship accelerator programme, supporting businesses to develop, test and scale innovations within the NHS and wider healthcare system.

The programme is free for successful applicants and offers a comprehensive package of support, including enhanced business development, regulatory guidance, access to NHS networks and tailored advice to support sustainable growth.

Propel Healthtech has recently secured £4.5 million in funding through the West Yorkshire Mayor’s Investment Zone, part of a wider £160 million regional Investment Zone aimed at accelerating growth across the health innovation and technology sector.

Over the next four years, the programme will support hundreds of businesses, helping them to scale in the NHS, contribute to regional economic growth and develop life-changing innovations for patients.

Delivered in collaboration with a strong network of national and international partners, Propel Healthtech provides innovators with access to organisations that bring lived experience of operating and scaling in global markets.

The programme is open to both early-stage innovators and scale-up organisations that can demonstrate traction within the NHS. Applicants must have an existing presence in West Yorkshire or be willing to establish one.
