Knowledge Partners – Strengthening Evidence-Based Patient Involvement
Knowledge Partners are strategic collaborators who strengthen PiCC United’s work in patient engagement, patient involvement, and patient-centred healthcare innovation. Through specialised expertise, methodological insight, and implementation capacity, they help advance sustainable and scalable solutions across research, healthcare systems, and policy development.
Together, we co-create and implement evidence-based patient engagement models that generate measurable real-world impact. Our partnerships are built on aligned strategic objectives, professional integrity, and a shared commitment to meaningful patient involvement in healthcare research and system transformation.
Knowledge Partners contribute academic, clinical, organisational, and practical expertise that enhances PiCC United’s programmes, collaborative research initiatives, and cross-sector healthcare partnerships. By bridging lived patient experience with scientific and operational knowledge, we develop robust, scalable, and quality-assured frameworks for patient partnership and co-creation in healthcare.
As part of a structured and transparent collaboration model, we ensure mutual visibility through reciprocal logo placement, shared communication initiatives, and direct platform links that highlight joint outputs and collective impact.
More importantly, Knowledge Partners are active participants in a dynamic knowledge ecosystem — contributing to advisory boards, dialogue forums, co-design processes, and knowledge dissemination activities that strengthen governance, accountability, and implementation quality in patient engagement.
Through structured collaboration, cross-border knowledge exchange, and responsible governance, we work to advance inclusive, transparent, and impact-driven patient partnership across healthcare research and policy ecosystems.

The Strategic Sponsor Advisory Board is a structured partnership platform designed to ensure transparency, sustainability, and responsible collaboration between PiCC United and its long-term sponsors.
Our Strategic Partners provide long-term, in-depth support that is essential to the success of PiCC United’s mission. They bring valuable expertise, networks, and resources that help advance truly patient-focused care across research, policy, and healthcare systems.
Within this framework, Sponsor Partners contribute not only financial support, but also strategic dialogue, sector insight, and cross-border networks that strengthen our governance model and operational capacity. As a Strategic Partner, you become part of the core foundation of our work — helping to drive our vision forward through structured, solution-oriented engagement.
The Board reflects our commitment to independence and integrity: Sponsors actively support our mission, while PiCC United maintains full autonomy in its strategic decisions and patient-led priorities.
