The report Connected Health in Ireland - An All-Island Review was commissioned by Enterprise Ireland and completed in April 2010.  The report and the Database of academic, business and clinical stakeholders provides the most indepth review of connected health capability and activity in Ireland (North and South).

The recent White Paper Equity and Excellence: Liberating the NHS from the UK Health Secretary Andrew Lansley was published on 12th July 2010 and outlined the new UK coalition government's strategy for modernising the NHS.

The Capability Study was the report that BioBusiness developed to study and map the capability within the Life and Health Technologies Sector in Northern Ireland.  The report cemented BioBusiness as the advocacy body for the industry and formed the basis for further work such as the Matrix Horizon Panel in Life Sciences.  It also led to the very successul BioBusienss Innovation Strategy of ABC Collaborations (Academics, Businesses and Clinicians).
