Innovation Insights – Missions for better health
Reflections from system-wide innovation in North West London

This session, chaired by Dr Dominique Allwood, ICHP’s Chief Executive, sets out why they took a purposeful, fundamental shift away from short-term projects towards a more disciplined focus on long-term outcomes.
