Wearables, AI, and the Ten Year Plan

About the Event

​Wearables are set to play a central role in the NHS 10-Year Plan - supporting prevention, remote monitoring, personalised care and earlier intervention. But turning promising wearable technology into something that is trusted, adopted and scaled in real healthcare settings is not straightforward.

​This session brings together founders, investors and policymakers to explore what credible adoption looks like, and what needs to be true for wearable innovation to succeed in the UK.

​The panel will include policy leads from the Department of Health and Social Care (focusing on wearables) and the Horizon Scanning Lead for Health Tech at NICE, alongside founders and healthtech investors. The discussion will focus on evidence expectations, adoption pathways, and how innovation, policy and investment can better align.

Speakers on the Panel:
- David Lawson MCIPS – Director of MedTech Innovation, Department of Health and Social Care
- Tharni Vasavan – Horizon Scanning Lead, NICE - National Institute for Health and Care Excellence
- Vinous Ali – Deputy Executive Director, Startup Coalition
- Alan Furley (moderator) – Founder & Early Stage Investor, ISL Talent
