Digital Health and Care Innovation Centre (DHI) brings together Scotland's public sector, academia, charities and industry to create new ways of working, and to co-design digital solutions to some of the country's biggest health and care challenges. Our unique needs-led approach is an essential link between the Scottish Government’s national priorities and the wealth of talent across different sectors and communities in Scotland. This creates opportunities for innovators, entrepreneurs and enterprises to develop proven, scalable, and commercially viable solutions for use across Scotland and for export to other markets. That also helps Scotland to be at the forefront of the growing global digital health and care economy through developing the right workforce, infrastructure and policies to attract investment and new jobs.
