SUMMARY:Food Supplements Special Interest Group (SIG)
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability in Food Supplements – driving change in turbulent times. \n2019 has seen an increasing trend towards sustainability\, be it reducing meat consumption\, climate change activism or increased awareness of our disposable society. \nRecognising this movement\, we wish to close the year with our final networking meeting in Food Supplements examining what can be done as innovators and entrepreneurs in this area. We have created a programme that looks at innovative sources of raw materials for potential use in food supplements\, plastic reduction and minimising waste by using local manufacturers. To understand some key trends and meet some very new innovative ways of using waste for future nutrition. \nThis free to attend event was held as part of the INSTILS programme – a project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund.

SUMMARY:Preparing your NHS Business Case
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT IS NOW FULL \n \nThis interactive and informative event on ‘Preparing your NHS Business Case’ will enable you to prepare better business cases with input from the EMAHSN staff. \nThis free to attend event is being held as part of the ACTIS programme – a project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund\, click here to be re-directed to further information about the project. \nDuring the event you will also learn about: \n– What is a business case\, what is its purpose and why it is so important? \n– Who reviews the business case and how are they evaluated from a commissioning point of view? \n– How to construct a good business case \nThe Challenge as a supplier to the NHS is often that when you have a product which from your perspective improves patient outcomes and saves cost you still cannot get it adopted by the NHS. This is often because there is not a fully developed business case\, without this a group within the NHS interested in taking on board a new product or service are unlikely to get approval of the case for change before procurement of the innovation can proceed. \nOrganisations that supply to the NHS are often challenged by the process\, timescales\, evidence and documentary requirements. This can often seem like an unnecessary complication\, or simply a reason to not issue a purchase order. A good business case is fundamental to successful adoption and developing a long term business partnership. Preparing the business case can also be difficult for your NHS contacts because they are busy or not experienced in their preparation and often even more difficult for companies with little or no experience of the process. \nProgramme \nSpeaker Profiles \nDelegate List \nPlaces are restricted to one delegate per organisation only.  \nNon-Attendance: should you book on Medilink East Midlands events and fail to attend on two occasions without letting us know\, we reserve the right to refuse to accept bookings from your organisation in the future. \n
