MedTechONE - research & translation of medical technologies

Well established and successful structures exist to support entrepreneurs across the Imperial College ecosystem, from early-stage experimental medicine, scientific innovation and engineering advances, to start-up formation. However, innovation in the MedTech space has remained notoriously difficult, with additional complexities and barriers to market entry such as regulatory hurdles, high development costs before a technology can attract investment, and challenges with NHS adoption. MedTechONE is a College-wide Centre of Excellence, building on those programmes, and based at Imperial White City campus, with delivery sites across College campuses.
