Abstract

In January 2024, DHI was commissioned by the Scottish Government to develop a Care and Wellbeing Innovation Portfolio, focusing, in particular, on social care innovation. Through engagement with over 20 national organizations, DHI identified key priorities for scaling digital innovation in social care and to lever research and innovation opportunities. The findings emphasise the need for a supportive infrastructure, an innovation pathway, a framework for evaluating impacts, and alignment of ongoing projects. The report outlines steps to advance digital social care innovation across Scotland and shares insight on creating the conditions to foster social care innovation and collaboration across sectors.
