South West NHS Review: In conversation with Scott McKenzie

Thursday 2nd July 2026 13:00 - 14:00 (BST)


Navigating system pressure, prevention priorities and partnership opportunities in the South West NHS


Masterclass Details:

The South West NHS continues to operate under significant financial constraint, workforce pressure and growing demand – but 2026 is also a year of opportunity.

Integrated Care Systems are moving from strategy into delivery. Prevention, pathway redesign and productivity are no longer high-level ambitions – they are operational imperatives. For Life Sciences professionals, understanding how these priorities are translating at system and place level is critical.

In this 60-minute masterclass, NHS transformation consultant Scott McKenzie will provide an up-to-date review of the South West landscape. He will examine where ICS leadership teams are focusing their energy, how commissioning behaviours are evolving, and what NHS stakeholders genuinely need from industry partners.

Expect a candid, insight-led conversation covering service recovery, prevention strategies, medicines optimisation, pathway redesign and financial accountability – and what this means for engagement models in 2026.

Scott will also explore how Life Sciences teams can shift from transactional conversations to value-based collaboration, aligning commercial objectives with system-level outcomes.


Join live to ask questions and shape your 2026 strategy with region-specific insights from one of the UK’s most experienced NHS consultants.
