Lawrence is currently Deputy Chief Executive at Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust and is a former Managing Director of the Shelford Group, with whom we have a formal partnership.
Regulation remains our most pressing priority, and we continue to advocate for a responsive, well-resourced regulator that has access to HealthTech expertise at all levels. We will seek early engagement with Lawrence to outline the challenges facing the HealthTech sector and the unique opportunity our industry presents in driving innovation, supporting patient care, and contributing to economic growth - provided the necessary measures are taken - as outlined in our recent report.
We will keep you updated on our engagement.
