About this Event
The AHSN NENC, Health Network North and the Supply Chain North East Programme, have joined forces to deliver a series of workshops to provide awareness and help businesses to better understand customers and create value propositions that effectively help them sell into the healthcare sector.
The workshops will be held virtually.
The next Healthcare Innovation Readiness Programme will take place on 25th May, 13:00-16:00 and 9th June 9:30-12:30
The purpose of the event is to enhance SMEs knowledge of the approaches to help articulate the value of a product or service offering, and guide attendees through the process of how to develop their own version, targeted at selling into the healthcare sector.
