Ieso Digital Health has been crowned Business of the Year in the 29th annual Business Weekly Awards, held at Queens’ College in Cambridge.

Ieso provides live, one-to-one cognitive behavioural therapy on behalf of the NHS and some of America’s biggest healthcare providers.

It is now integrating Artificial Intelligence into its platform for the first time, enabling therapists to receive date-led insights about each patient during the assessment stage of treatment, providing them with predictions of a patient’s presenting condition, severity of presentation and likelihood of completing a full course of therapy.

Kevin Calder, for sponsor Mills & Reeve told 250 local and international guests at the presentation dinner: “The platform encompasses the therapy, guides the therapist and improves therapy, as demonstrated by ever improving outcomes – something that has not been achieved in important areas like depression for 30 years.

“Ieso is also partnering with leading US institutions (Harvard and the Beck Institute), to help with the Ieso training in what will be a massive market opportunity for the business.”
