EPIC is creating a global innovation network that shares good practice, develops solutions to challenges and enables meaningful collaborations. We have teamed up with Cornwall Trade and Investment (CTI) to help you start innovating in Cornwall.

What EPIC and CTI can offer international digital health tech businesses that would like to work within Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly:

• Support to understand the local market, working with the NHS and integrated care system
• Bespoke academic collaboration to help boost innovations, covering end-user input, evaluation techniques and usability considerations
• Networking events to bolster valuable connections in the region

Once a business has registered a company base in Cornwall, with CTIs help, EPIC can offer:

• Fully funded use of the EPICentre, a purpose built modern venue and demonstration space in Truro for businesses to use for meetings and hosting events
