Kenyan startups have a chance to engage in a 11-month accelerator programme dubbed Making More Health, which was launched by Social entrepreneurship network Ashoka and pharmaceutical company Boehringer Ingelheim.
Alongside Ghanians and Nigerian enteprenuers, succesful applicants will be be provided with tailored access to expertise and capacity building to unlock their next phase of growth.
The structured accelerator will bring together the best experience in social innovation and global healthcare to improve healthcare access for people, animals and their communities around the world.
A unique feature of the programme is its co-creation approach, which involves entrepreneurs working with Boehringer Ingelheim employees to collaboratively design and implement relevant interventions.
In a bid to attract investment, the social enteprenuers with successful interventions will eventually present their solutions to Boehringer Ingelheim’s leadership team as well as social investors.
