Partnerships are at the heart of everything we do at the Nova Scotia Health Innovation Hub. We’re working to solve critical health challenges within our province by bringing innovators, researchers and industry partners together – through support, space and networks – in an ideal place to transform care. Thanks to collective voices and a diversity of minds, we’re better able to develop, discover, and commercialize new knowledge, technology, products, systems and solutions.
We want to work with you to transform health care in Nova Scotia through the best available evidence, well-researched solutions and new technologies. To explore partnership with us, reach out to our strategic partnership office at spo@nshealth.ca.

We partner with businesses of all sizes to develop, test and try new products and technologies. If you have an idea for health innovation, we want to hear about it.
Researchers
Our researchers engage in more than 1,400 research projects annually with 17,500 participants. This translates into approximately $44.5 million in annual research revenues and provides support to more than 599 dedicated research personnel. Collaborate with us, alongside clinical champions, health care foundations, governments and the academic community to transform health care.

Clinicians
We are a resource for clinicians and staff. We work with health teams to identify solutions and help validate homegrown ideas. If you have a challenge that could benefit from an innovative lens, we’re here to help.

We are one of the only provincial health care systems in Canada that offers a robust team of clinicians and researchers in a centralized system, and access to the entire population.
