GIANT Health's Hospital Ambassadors Program

Become a GIANT Health Hospital Ambassador

Lead innovation. Grow your network. Advance your career.

Are you passionate about innovation in healthcare? Do you want to connect your hospital with cutting-edge technologies and forward-thinking leaders? Join GIANT Health’s Hospital Ambassador Programme—a unique opportunity to take the lead in driving positive change within the NHS, while gaining high-impact experience for your own professional development.

 

What the Programme Is All About

As a GIANT Health Hospital Ambassador, your mission is to:

  • Understand the needs of NHS hospital leaders and clinicians around innovation and the adoption of new technologies

  • Identify and engage NHS professionals in your hospital who are passionate about improving care through innovation

  • Promote and invite these individuals to attend the GIANT Health Event 2025—one of Europe’s leading health-tech events (free for all NHS staff)

Despite the NHS being full of brilliant, innovative professionals, many are still unaware of the GIANT Health Event—now in its 11th year—because they’re not active on platforms like LinkedIn. Our past attendees, including hundreds of clinicians and senior staff, consistently tell us how valuable the event was for their work, leadership skills, and career growth.
