What VentilatorChallengeUK has achieved in the space of twelve weeks is nothing short of incredible. Creating and producing an approved product and setting up production facilities on this scale would normally take years. I am immensely proud of the energy, determination, and ingenuity shown by every business in responding to this national need.Dick Elsy, CEO, VCUK
"Together, we have helped ensure the NHS has always had access to the number of ventilators it needs," Dick continued, "and we're pleased to have also contributed to building a resilient stock should ventilators be required in the future. This coalition of the very best of this country's people and capability across different sectors has truly showcased the strength of the manufacturing industry in the UK."
"While we have now delivered all the required ventilators to the NHS, the Consortium is looking to capture lessons learned and share them across the engineering community — and with Government — as key tools to help UK industry get back on its feet after the COVID-19 pandemic has passed."
