  2. Request Received: 27 October 2023

    I have identified four projects by the British company The Alloy LTD funded by Innovate UK on your website (https://gtr.ukri.org/organisation/BD4ADB11-0ADD-41D8-9D6B-79CC0F76C195): MWB, eCH, INOS and Eurostars EHR Pathways .

    The available information about each project is however quite limited. For example the names of the partners of The Alloy involved in the projects and the full name of the projects is not visible to me.

    Therefore I request as much information as possible about the four projects; Who was the partner, what's the full name of the project etc.
