Consortium of experts wins Innovate UK Grant to Improve Healthcare Procurement

The University of Nottingham is part of a consortium of experts that have won funding to develop the world's largest healthcare supply network system.

Dr Aris Georgopoulos, of the School of Law, is leading the team of procurement experts on the project, working with the University of Sheffield and the tech start-up Vamstar. Funded by Innovate UK, the consortium will use artificial intelligence (AI), big data, deep learning, and natural language processing (NLP) to create a virtually real-time picture of the procurement market(s) conditions in healthcare connecting buyers and suppliers across the healthcare and life sciences industries in a more efficient way.
