Becoming an NHSIL member
By becoming an NHSIL Member, we can help establish your Trust as an innovative organisation by implementing a range of bespoke management processes to support the development of new IP and to bring new technologies and devices to the market place.
As part of our Membership Service Agreement, NHSIL can provide the following services to our Trusts:
- IP Audits (to identify new IP)
- Free IP Filings & Maintenance
- Business Advice & Consulting
- Induction and Training Courses
- Innovations Workshops
Capturing innovation not only provides direct healthcare benefits but can result in financial return to the Trust which can then be channelled back into the healthcare service. This could improve the star rating of your Trust.
Support
Each Member Trust is assigned a dedicated Partnership Liaison Manager to act as the first point of call for your needs concerning the protection and development of innovations. Partnership Liaison Managers also develop close relationships with your IP Leads, R&D departments, as well as inventors, researchers, clinicians and any other member of staff who may have an innovation.
