“We’ve been able to trial our award-winning ReMind Me app because the eHealth Cluster introduced us to key people at Local Authorities, the NHS and the Chinese Wellbeing organisation. The Cluster is helping us to fill technology gaps in health and social care, and explore new markets in Europe and China. We’ve since doubled the size of our team and secured significant funding.” Chris Morland, Citrus Suite

“eHealth Cluster connected us with healthcare experts and providers. They championed our living lab approach to developing the House of Memories app – helping us create a more effective product that actively improves care and treatment.” Dave Burrows, Damibu

Over the past 12 months eHealth Cluster Ltd has brought smaller care providers into the eHealth Cluster, helping them to identify opportunities for integrating technology into their services. Social care providers have told us: “We know we should be doing more with technology, we just don’t know where to start.”…“We haven’t got the skills and resources.”…“We’ve tried, but we’ve just hit too many barriers.”
