How the North is powering a new industrial revolution

2nd February 2026

Innovation, Devolution, Perspiration! A spotlight on the health innovation revolution taking place across the North, with:

  • Oliver Coppard, Mayor of South Yorkshire
  • Ed Whiting, Chief Executive of Leeds City Council
  • Richard Stubbs, Chief Executive of Health Innovation Yorkshire & Humber
  • Giles Tully, PinPoint Data Science

The North has always been a catalyst for UK growth going back as far as the first industrial revolution. As devolution empowers mayors to reimagine their route to economic prosperity, join us in Leeds to hear more about why this is important not just for the north but for UK Plc as a whole.

We were joined by mayors, and health and tech leaders as they share why the region is a great place to create and grow your start-up. For Cambridge Health Network members, this is a unique opportunity to connect with peers driving change, explore new collaborations, and discover how the North’s vibrant ecosystem is leading a healthcare innovation revolution that’s transforming patient outcomes and shaping the future of the NHS.
