Acceleration Through Innovation 2 (ATI2), supports business innovation across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly and is part funded by ERDF. Led by the University of Plymouth, the programme intensively works with businesses who are looking to adopt innovative processes or commercially exploit new ideas and technology as an opportunity for their business. With access to world leading research at the University of Plymouth, businesses through ATI2 are able to gain access to the Sustainable Earth Institute, Plymouth Institute of Health and Social Care Research as well as the Marine Institute.

In the lead up to the G7, an online event led by ATI2 and EPIC, is set to highlight how Cornish eHealth innovative businesses and new technologies can tackle some of the most pertinent health challenges today.

The inaugural eHealth Innovation Summit 2021 will take place online on Wednesday 9th June, 9:30 – 11.30am, and will showcase how Cornish eHealth businesses and new technologies are supporting care, health-related fields and wellbeing through innovation.

“Digital health is a real strength of the University of Plymouth, and it’s this world-class knowledge and research that the businesses working with ATI2, and EPIC, really benefit from. Our programme often works collaboratively to help those Cornish SMEs who are innovating and creating some truly life-changing digital solutions. 

“The eHealth Innovation Summit will shine a light on those businesses and will connect them to others in the South West, perhaps who are on similar journeys and can collaborate to solve problems”

Jo Hancock – ATI2 Programme Manager

ATI2 has worked with over 300 businesses, registered 134 SMEs onto the programme and awarded 23 innovation grants to support projects with a total project value of £585,181.
