Translating innovative ideas into viable products and services to improve patient care

As a champion for health innovation, we work in partnership with NHS Scotland to move promising ideas and innovations into viable products to improve patient care. A clear simple innovation pathway sets out the process for developing ideas into a commercial success.

• Evaluation
• Intellectual property advice 
• Regulatory advice
• Funding
• Research
• Development
• Commercialisation.

Once an idea is submitted our experienced team will take your idea through an evaluation stage. If the idea is viable as a commercial product or service we will meet with you and then guide you through the development and commercialisation process.

SHIL have successfully commercialised a range of products and spin-out companies working with health professionals across the spectrum of disease to support new ways of improving patient care.
