Description
The NHS is about caring for people, free at the point of care, creating a safety net which catches the most vulnerable. Tech has been defined by the facebook maxim "move fast, break things" - looking to disrupt a sector, get investment and move on.

Indra Joshi, Digital Health and Artificial Intelligence Clinical Lead at the newly formed NHS X
