We have developed a roadmap and organisation that helps you achieve your mission and navigate the complexities of getting your healthcare technology successfully to market. We do this with the world-class backing of King's, in close proximity to one of the foremost research and ‘in practice’ healthcare sites in the world.
Many MedTech innovations fail due to the challenges surrounding regulation, clinical adoption, health economics, manufacturing, and the payer landscape. The interplay of all these elements is critical for successful go-to-market, but early-stage companies lack the resources to overcome this “valley of death”.
We understand this challenge fully, and have the roadmap to overcome it. LIHE’s team of over 20 multi-disciplinary experts provides you everything you need for success in one place with dedicated, sustained and tailored executive support, built around you to help you achieve your mission.
Uniquely, by being co-located with our clinical and industry partners in LIHE, you will get answers to your most critical questions, and you will develop a deep understanding of the journey ahead to proceed at pace.
