The health secretary Matt Hancock has indicated that partnerships between the NHS and tech companies are likely to outlive the pandemic.
Speaking at the CogX technology conference this morning (10 June), Hancock couldn’t sing the praises of tech companies highly enough. “The honest truth is there is no way we would have been able to cope with this pandemic and deal with it in the way that we have been able to without the support of tech companies,” he said, describing them as “absolutely brilliant at putting together the platforms that we need” and “building the test and TRACE program”.
