RADIANT-CERSI
The DigitalHealth.London RADIANT-CERSI Innovator Support Programme is designed to improve understanding of the regulatory landscape and compliance process for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) and Artificial Intelligence as a Medical Device (AIaMD), with the goal of supporting valuable UK medical innovations to reach the market safely and efficiently.
Who is the DigitalHealth.London RADIANT-CERSI Innovator Support Programme for?
The online programme is open to up to 40 UK-based start-up companies. The start-up’s technology must be a software as a medical device (SaMD) or an artificial intelligence as a medical device (AIaMD). The technology can be of any class (I, IIa, IIb, III) but must have a technology readiness of level 4 or above.
The online programme will be delivered between Monday 16 June 2025 and Sunday 14 September 2025. Participants must be available during this period to attend nine online workshops, which will each be up to 2.5 hours in length. Companies will be expected to attend the programme in full, as this is a high-value, fully funded opportunity.
The DigitalHealth.London RADIANT-CERSI Innovator Support programme is delivered by DigitalHealth.London and the Health Innovation Network South London, in partnership with RADIANT-CERSI and experts in regulation.
RADIANT-CERSI is one of seven Centre of Excellence in Regulatory Science and Innovation (CERSI) in Transformative Digital Health and AI across the UK.
