Matternet extends London hospital drone deliveries to Great Ormond Street
Summary by Marcus Reyes · October 20, 2026
Matternet expanded its NHS drone network in London to Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. The drones carry urgent medical samples to laboratories, building on Matternet's partnership with Apian.
Matternet says drones can cut urgent sample transport times by up to 90% compared with road transport in a congested city, and the partners plan to add more sites as the network grows.
