- how we can support SMEs to conduct clinical trials in the NHS
- connecting you to other organisations that can help
- how we fit into the wider health innovation ecosystem in [location] and beyond
This is one of a series of events that will take place across the country. Future events will be publicised on the NIHR website when the venues and dates are finalised.
