NHS Innovations London (NHSIL)

The NHS is the 3rd largest organization in the world, and as a constantly evolving service with science and technology at its forefront the NHS is a huge source of innovation

NHS Innovations London (NHSIL) is here to provide services to all NHS Trusts in London to help them  identify, protect and develop their ideas and inventions.

If you are an Researcher, Nurse or Clinician working in the NHS, we can help you make the most of your invention. You can work with us to take your product to market, as we have the expertise and resources to assist and advise you in product development, market research, finding commercial partners and negotiating contracts and forming start up companies.

Capturing innovation not only benefits healthcare but can result in financial return to the Trust which can then be ploughed back into healthcare provision.

The Trust retains full ownership of any IP (for a detailed explanation of IP, please visit our website) and depending on your Trust’s policy, you will receive a percentage of any royalty payments. The Trust would also benefit by gaining recognition as an innovative organization and you as a innovative professional.

Overall the purpose and function of NHSIL is:

  • To build awareness of IP in the Trusts
  • To find and evaluate IP for the Trusts
  • To protect and manage IP for the Trusts
  • To assist and facilitate technology development
  • To commercialize technology and products
  • To disseminate service improvements
