We’re a British Data Awards 2026 Finalist
We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been chosen as a Finalist at the British Data Awards 2026, in the category: ‘Healthcare Organisation of the Year’.
The British Data Awards is an annual quest that sets out to discover and celebrate the UK’s data success stories. This year organisations taking part include fresh-faced start-ups, not-for-profits, technology unicorns, government departments, FTSE 100 heavyweights, and everything in between.
With a record 462 entries submitted for the sixth edition of the British Data Awards, competition to be named a finalist was pretty tough, so we’re especially delighted to be announced as a Finalist.
Chris Boulton, NJR Director of Operations said, ‘We’re extremely proud to have been judged to be a finalist in these prestigious awards. This recognition underlines our ambition to innovate, our ability to turn data into meaningful insight, and our commitment to improving patient safety and outcomes.’
Jason Johnson, Managing Director of Predatech and British Data Awards judge said, “I’d like to extend my congratulations to all the Finalists. The sheer ingenuity, ambition and impact demonstrated by the nominations has impressed the judging panel once again. I’m looking forward to showcasing the Finalists and their data success stories at the best night in data in May.”
