E4RA24

In the 2024 Entrepreneurs for Resilience Award cycle, we focused on innovative solutions that increase access to healthcare in low-income communities. To be eligible for the award, an enterprise  had to display “brick-and-click” delivery models that improve healthcare access in low- and middle-income countries. The edition was curated in partnership with the UBS Optimus Foundation and DCCC.

The winner, ZimbosAbantu, was selected from among three finalists by the jury at a live event on 4 September 2024.
