Rhetoric to Reality: Making sense of NHS reform in the new financial year

Friday 20th March 2026 13:00 - 14:00 (GMT)


Cut through the noise and understand what NHS reform really means in practice


Masterclass Details:

As the new financial year begins, the pace of NHS reform shows no sign of slowing. The current system is marked by volatility, uncertainty and significant local variation, making it harder than ever for Life Sciences to plan, engage and deliver value.

In this 60-minute masterclass, Transformation Director at Well Up North PCN, David Thorne, will break down the complexity of the new NHS structure, from ICBs and integrated neighbourhoods to delegated budgets and value-based procurement.

David will explain how national ambitions such as the Single National Formulary are being interpreted locally and what that means for industry engagement and field-based roles. Designed to help you cut through uncertainty, this session will give you the clarity and confidence to navigate NHS reform.

 


Join live to hear real-world insights on NHS reform, ask your questions and learn practical ways to adapt your approach for 2026.
