Sponsorship Benefits
This high impact, annual competition celebrates the enormous wealth of creativity and excellence in healthcare and
life sciences today, bringing maximum benefits to the NHS and the lives of patients. This is a perfect opportunity
for you to help realize potential, invest in the future and take a share in the delivery of life-changing ideas.

Horizon Tracking
Just like Penicillin, many of the most successful ideas that have emerged from clinicians over the last century have taken 20-30 years from conception to actually benefiting patients. The Innovation Awards will expose you to a wealth of novel, early-staged technologies; years before they might otherwise appear on your radar, many of which will go onto become companies with substantial growth potential.
Networking at MFIA08
The event encourages cross-fertilization of knowledge across industry and geographical boundaries; offering unparalleled opportunities to network with key opinion formers, many of whom are the rising stars of the future.
In addition, you can meet companies and organizations that underpin the healthcare market, along with leading influencers in a neutral setting perfect to initiate dialogue and discussion.
Visibility
The NHS and patient care has been brought to the public eye never more so than in the past year. Referred to by the press as the ’Oscars of Healthcare’, this event consistently delivers hundreds of positive “feel-good” stories with high visibility across all forms of media, including television, radio and the broadsheets. Your association will fulfill your corporate responsibility of helping improve the health of the nation, the NHS and the lives of the patients it treats.
Unlocking Potential
Innovation is about realizing potential. With over 2m employees in the NHS and private healthcare sector, the UK has the world’s single largest sources of healthcare intellectual capital. Your support will help unlock that potential from the future leaders of healthcare. Sponsoring a process that unlocks talent and creativity – that moves ideas from concept to market – can only cement your company’s position at the forefront of innovation.
