Become an Ecosystem Partner

Join a growing network of professional service providers embedded in one of the UK’s most active healthtech communities.

Why partner with Out-There HealthTech?

Out-There HealthTech is a free-to-access community of healthtech and life science professionals across Greater Manchester and the wider North West. Our members include clinicians, academics, founders, developers, NHS transformation leaders, and investors — all united by a shared interest in getting health technology to the frontline of patient care.

We’re building a curated network of Ecosystem Partners — professional service providers who bring genuine expertise to the healthtech sector. If your business helps healthtech companies succeed, there’s a place for you here.

Our community is growing. With close to 500 verified professional members actively connecting, collaborating, and building on the platform, Ecosystem Partners gain direct visibility to the audience that matters most to their business.

Who we’re looking for

We welcome applications from businesses offering professional services relevant to healthtech and life science organisations, including:

Legal services (corporate, healthcare, data protection)
Intellectual property and patent advisory
Regulatory and compliance (DTAC, MHRA, UKCA, ISO 13485)
Accountancy, tax, and R&D tax credits
Funding and investment advisory (SEIS/EIS, grants)
Insurance and risk management

PR, marketing, and communications
Recruitment and talent
Software development and technical services
Business strategy and growth consultancy
Clinical safety and governance
Training and education

This isn’t an exhaustive list. If your business supports healthtech or life science companies in a way that isn’t listed above, we’d still like to hear from you.

What you get as an Ecosystem Partner

Visibility to the right audience

Your business is featured in our ecosystem directory and The Solutions Hub — our dedicated community space for professional service providers. Our members are verified healthtech professionals who browse when they have a need, so you’re reaching a relevant, engaged audience rather than a general mailing list.

A space to demonstrate expertise

The Solutions Hub is where Ecosystem Partners share insights, updates, guidance, and resources. It’s not a space for sales pitches — it’s a space to show members what you know. The businesses that contribute value consistently are the ones members reach out to first.

Direct connection with members

Members can message you directly when they’re ready to engage – no gatekeeping. When a member needs your expertise, the connection is direct and immediate.

Events and opportunities

Ecosystem Partners are invited to participate in community events, workshops, and networking sessions. Depending on your partnership level, this can include speaking slots, co-branded content, and featured workshops that position you as a trusted authority in your field.

How it works

What we expect

We’re building a community based on trust. Our members value the fact that Out-There HealthTech is not a sales channel, and Ecosystem Partners are expected to maintain that standard.

Do

Share expertise, insights, and genuinely useful resources
Respond promptly and professionally when members reach out
Contribute to community discussions where your knowledge adds value
Attend and participate in ecosystem events

Don’t

Cold-pitch members or send unsolicited sales messages
Post advertisements or promotional content in community spaces
Treat The Solutions Hub as a lead generation tool
Spam the member directory with outreach

Show members what you know — the right business will follow.
