For health to improve, people need to collaborate across disciplines, sectors and organisations, driven by a clear, common aim.
We work with partners across academia, industry, healthcare, government and the charity sector to tackle challenges that no single organisation can solve alone. We bring together expertise, evidence and influence to support better decisions and faster progress.
Through the Academy, partners can access independent expertise, engage with a credible and well-connected community, and help shape the future of health research, innovation and policy.
What we offer
Through our community, our partners can:
- connect with leading researchers and clinicians
- collaborate on shared challenges and priorities
- contribute evidence and expertise to policy discussions
- bring patient and public perspectives into research and policy
- enable the translation of research into real-world impact
- support researchers to fulfil their potential.
Whether you are seeking new partnerships, cross-sector insight or opportunities to influence the research landscape, the Academy offers a trusted, independent space for collaboration and impact.
Why partner with us?

There are quite a few initiatives which are unique to the Academy, trying to bring NHS, clinicians, researchers and industry together – which is what we need at the moment. Now everything is so interdisciplinary and you cannot be an expert in everything. You definitely need collaborations.
My goal is to bridge the historical silos between the NHS, academia and industry, turning collaborative insight into transformative innovation.Dr Amit Pujari
The Academy has shown how the nation’s health, medical research, and the healthcare industry are all deeply interconnected…Their tireless work has been central to ensuring rising investment in UK health research.
