ASSESS Project

We help organizations achieve their most ambitious goals and move with greater agility.

The ASSESS Project is the community and movement that supports ASSESS to deliver insights and analyses to innovators. It builds on 30 years of research and practice in health technology assessment (HTA) and early economic evaluation.

We seek to assemble a global community of those interested in early HTA and value demonstration to support university life sciences spin-outs and start-ups, and radically improve the processes and outcomes achieved by innovators and technology transfer offices, and accelerate breakthrough technology to bedside.

What Makes Us Different

Creating access to global experts for start-up companies

At each stage of the Commercialization Journey, life sciences innovators have key questions that can be answered with support of those with expertise in health technology assessment and health economics.

Untapped Expert Capacity

Similar to how AirBnB has created a platform to liberate existing capacity in host homes to create accommodation opportunities for travelers, ASSESS has created a platform to liberate existing capacity of a global network of experts in health technology assessment and health economics.

Expertise from senior leading academics and applied professionals previously inaccessible through conventional staff model consulting firms is now, for the first time, available to support innovators with analysis and insights to accelerate their commercialization journey.

The expert community is matched to innovator requirements on the basis of therapeutic and technology type expertise, along with jurisdiction of deep understanding, to provide the nuanced services that are required in the complex field of health care.

The expert community is supported with tools and methods guidance, developed by top global thought leaders and methodologists, along with access to other required expertise, to deliver the critical insights and analyses to innovative companies.

Collective Intelligence

Community members believe that online community engagement of global experts, that matches the specific skill set, expertise, experience, and market-specific knowledge to a particular type of technology and therapeutic application, offers the opportunity to scale the production of high-quality insights to support innovation.

Community members believe that the collective intelligence of assembled is as an asset to the health technology development and investment community, to nurture demonstrably high value products to market and to transform how care is delivered.

Global Experts Specific Skill Sets Market-Experience Community Engagement Standards and Methods

High Quality Early Assessment

The ASSESS Project community believes that the pace of introduction of impactful innovations in healthcare can be dramatically improved by high quality early assessment of their commercial potential and evidence requirements. This will help direct the allocation of intellectual, human capital and financial resources to the most promising technologies

The goals of the community are to:

  • Identify the questions that innovators should be asking at each stage of the R&D & commercialization process
  • Advance methods to apply research approaches to answer the questions
  • Facilitate the early identification of high value technology, and accelerate its path to demonstrated value and impact on health and health care
