The TriTech Institute’s mission is to research, develop and evaluate health and well-being innovations on a local, national, and global scale. The TriTech Institute offers a single point of access to Health & Social Care in Wales with academic experts, a regional clinical NHS testbed, and an agile and efficient approach.

Collaborating with the life science sector and various Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) across Wales and the UK, the team of clinical scientists, researchers, engineers, data scientists, nurses, pharmacists and doctors conducts research and real-world evaluations on healthcare innovations. The team is composed of individuals holding dual NHS/HEI honorary contracts and encompasses a variety of backgrounds including NHS, HEI and industry.

Describe, Understand, and Define

Support 

The TriTech Institute employs a structured approach to drive healthcare innovation. This methodology begins with Describing the unmet needs and challenges within the healthcare system, ensuring a clear understanding of the context and requirements. Next, the institute focuses on Understanding these needs through comprehensive research and stakeholder engagement, which includes gathering insights from patients, healthcare professionals, and industry experts. Finally, the Define phase involves outlining precise solutions and strategies to address the identified needs, ensuring that innovations are both practical and impactful. This approach ensures that the TriTech Institute’s initiatives are well-informed, targeted, and capable of making a significant difference in healthcare delivery
