Nine stand-out Israeli companies were in London this week as part of a pioneering medical tech delegation, organised by by the UK-Israel Tech-Hub based in British Embassy Tel Aviv.
The pioneering startups specialising in AI-driven healthcare solutions, from rare disease and early pregnancy diagnostics to mental health support, participated in the Dangoor HealthTech Academy – a first-of-its-kind programme connecting Israeli startups with the UK healthcare system.
The three-day visit marked the end of the eight-week programme for this first cohort of selected companies. The startups met with NHS and private healthcare organisations, innovation hubs, and accelerators. The initiative underlined the Government’s ambition to deliver an NHS fit for the future and brings cutting-edge medical solutions to improve patient care in Britain and drive economic growth, delivering on the UK government’s Plan for Change.
Throughout the eight-week Academy, the startups were provided deep insights into UK healthcare regulations, R&D, and pilot programmes with mentorship from experts in Israel and the UK.
