The Big Pitch 2025

26 | Dr Ash Kalraiya Founder and CEO MediShout Ash worked as an Orthopaedic Surgeon for a decade in the NHS and South Africa, plus in Malawi where he was a World Orthopaedic Concern Fellow. He founded MediShout after witnessing hospital operational problems preventing best patient care; for example when he cancelled operations due to faulty equipment or a broken theatre lightbulb. MediShout solves such problems by delivering the world’s first ‘one-stop’ App for hospital staff to report any operational issue whilst using AI to predict future problems. By integrating clinical staff, clinical engineering and medical device companies, MediShout improves operational workflow in hospitals. Ash has since become an NHS Innovation Accelerator Fellow and NHS Clinical Entrepreneur.

Surgically trained, Daf stepped sideways from Urology to drive forward his global vision for a better consent and shared decision-making process. Over a decade, he’s taken Concentric from an aide memoire built for his own use on surgical wards in Wales, through evolving the project into a business via the NHS Clinical Entrepreneur Programme, to quietly leading an international team focused on the complex challenge of delivering a digital consent process that truly works for patients, clinicians and organisations. www.concentric.health LinkedIn: /in/dafloughran/ It’s a brilliant community that hugely supports innovation in the NHS.
