Darren Sloof is Founder and CEO of AirPurity, where his focus has been on developing novel technologies that don’t just improve air quality but actively reduce clinical risk, cut costs, and prevent disruption in healthcare settings.
Their work has already demonstrated 89% reductions in patient infections and over 31% reductions in staff sickness, while also helping NHS estates save energy and capital by implementing solutions that safeguard without delays or shutdowns. These aren’t just theoretical results, they come from real-world NHS deployments, backed by extensive research and collaboration.
None of this would have been possible without the hundreds of dedicated NHS professionals who have supported this journey. From clinicians to estates teams, their expertise and commitment have been essential in proving that smarter environmental control isn’t just a ‘nice-to-have’ it’s a critical part of patient safety and operational efficiency.
Darren believe that innovation isn’t about technology alone it’s about delivering measurable, meaningful outcomes that make a tangible difference to people’s lives.
