Launching the Biomed Academy

Biomed Academy is a joint initiative of British Embassy Warsaw and the Polish Development Fund, in cooperation with the Nottingham Business School, Nottingham Trent University.

The programme was agreed upon during the third British-Polish intergovernmental consultations, which took place in December 2018 in London.

17 Polish healthtech firms were carefully selected to participate in the academy. Their representatives will take part in two weeks of workshops on business development and technology transfer, aimed at enhancing their business capabilities.

British Ambassador to Poland, Jonathan Knott, said upon launching the programme:

“Participants of this programme were selected on a competitive basis. We hope they will use this opportunity to develop, but also foster more and more partnerships between the UK and Poland.”
