ABOUT AMANDA RISINO

NHS leader with more than 30 years\' experience spanning health, social care, research, digital innovation and large-scale transformation. My career began as a physiotherapist before moving into senior system leadership roles across the North-West, where I led multimillion pound commissioning bids, major organisational mergers and some of England\'s earliest integrated health and social care models. Since then, I have held national leadership positions, including Programme Director for Adoption and Spread across the AHSN Network, and Deputy Chief Executive and Chief Operating Officer at Health Innovation Manchester, where I helped transform the organisation into one of England\'s highest performing HINs. I am now Chief Executive of Health Innovation West Midlands, where I lead the organisation\'s mission to accelerate the discovery, development and deployment of innovation that improves population health and reduces inequalities across the region and beyond. Throughout my career I have been driven by a belief that the right partnerships, the right culture and the right conditions for innovation can genuinely transform lives. I bring a deep commitment to building collaborative relationships across the NHS, local government, academia, industry and the third sector, and to turning bold ideas into meaningful, measurable change.
