Creating excellent communications partnerships

General information

Many healthcare organisations share common goals and agendas that ultimately help to improve people’s lives. The HCA has joined forces with Stempra (the Stem PR Association) to bring you an event on communications partnerships.

During this panel discussion, you will hear views from a patient association, academic journal, NHS Trust, industry and a communications agency about the key factors of successful communications partnerships and some of the challenges they can bring. 

There will be an opportunity to ask questions and learn from examples of excellence.
