Advancing Federated
Health Research

Bridging technology and healthcare to unlock global federated research.

What We Enable

Increase the value of your data

If you have datasets and want to be part of global studies, we can help you move from isolated datasets to federation ready assets. Through deep expertise in data standards, governance, platforms, and compliance, we can help organisations through a data transformation programme. The result is data that is trusted, interoperable, and ready to be safely used by artificial intelligence and support high impact research.

Embed your technology

If you have a technology that enables federation, we want to work with you with a focus on the adoption of leading software to deliver change to healthcare organisations. Our knowledge of the complete eco-system and international partnerships can help you fast track your technology to impact. Whether that is open-source of commercial offerings, we are seeking strong partners to deliver change.

Build lasting partnerships

We can help you connect with organisations that share your vision for research. With our understanding of the International secure and confidential data infrastructure, we are seeking strong and lasting partnerships where we collaboratively seek to form partnerships that are based on a common vision that can deliver long term impact. Our track record is strong in working across academic, NHS and commercial partners and the ways of working that enable mutual success.
