It is being launched on 25 July by RM Partners Research Director, Professor Stan Kaye, and Research Manager Dr Michelle Chen.

Successful applicants can receive up to £100,000 including VAT of funding for phase one (feasibility) and up to £1 million including VAT for phase two (development) for solutions that match the needs of the NHS.
