More than 3.5 billion people globally cannot obtain access to high quality health services due to poor health systems, inadequate infrastructure, and human resource gaps.

Our client is an impact start-up with a mission to democratize access to healthcare – starting with emerging markets. With strained public healthcare systems and many uninsured inhabitants, there is an enormous potential to transform the health sector in these markets.

Local digital health start-ups, meanwhile, face challenges such as access to funding and often sub-optimal technology.

WHAT THEY DO

They are addressing these challenges by investing in the most talented local entrepreneurs, providing them with funding, world-class scalable technology, and extensive operational know-how in digital health.
