We aim to adapt and validate Lacewing, our innovative diagnostic technology, into a first-ever portable device that can identify bacterial infection in <20 minutes using just a drop of fingerprick blood. Our test will “read” the immune response of the patient to understand the source and severity of their illness, rather than finding specific pathogens causing the problem. This is paired with groundbreaking technology involving high-quality sample extraction, lab-grade detection and sensors in microchip technology, all miniaturised for true portability.

BirthGlide is developing a revolutionary device to prevent difficult birth in the pushing stage of labour and reduce the use of traumatic procedures such as forceps, vacuum or emergency C-sections.

Gro Health is a multi-award-winning NICE-accredited digital health platform that supports individuals managing chronic conditions, including obesity and Type 2 diabetes. The platform provides personalised health pathways, data-driven insights, behavioral change tools and AI-driven engagement to enhance patient outcomes. The "GroW" project focuses on co-developing solutions with women living in social housing, a group considered hard to reach despite the greatest need for intervention. By understanding their unique needs, the project aims to adapt and personalise Gro Health to reduce health inequalities and deliver scalable, equitable, and impactful interventions for underserved communities - improving both individual and community health outcomes.
