The Future of AI in the NHS: £505M in Contracts Are Up for Grabs

The UK healthcare sector is undergoing a digital evolution — and if you're a supplier working with AI, data platforms, cybersecurity, or patient-facing tools, the opportunity to support the NHS has never been greater.

Over the next 18 months, £505 million worth of NHS contracts related to AI and emerging technologies are due to expire. These represent a critical window for suppliers to engage early, understand shifting procurement priorities, and position their solutions in line with NHS transformation goals.

Why this matters now

From AI-powered diagnostics to integrated care records and mobile EPRs, the NHS is rapidly shifting from infrastructure-focused IT procurement to outcomes-based digital innovation. But with increased pressure on budgets, resources, and delivery outcomes, only suppliers who understand the changing landscape will succeed.

That’s why Stotles and GovNet (the team behind the HETT Show) have partnered to publish a new report:
“AI & Emerging Tech in UK Healthcare: A Market Intelligence Report”

This free resource is designed to help tech providers:

  • Identify where future funding is heading

  • Understand what buyers are really prioritising

  • Align with NHS strategic goals and buying patterns

  • Spot and act on early-stage procurement signals before tenders drop

Whether you're expanding your NHS footprint or diversifying your offering, this report gives you a competitive edge in a fast-changing market.

What you’ll discover inside:

  • The NHS’s evolving digital vision: patient passports, shared data infrastructure, AI diagnostics and more

  • How legacy systems and paper records are creating urgency for modern solutions

  • Where and how AI is being deployed already — and where opportunities are still untapped

  • Actionable insights for suppliers looking to lead, not follow, in upcoming renewal cycles

Don’t wait for the tender to go live.
Get ahead of the market — and ahead of your competitors
