Babson College convened healthcare industry leaders from around the world for the first-ever Global Healthcare Entrepreneurship Summit on May 7, 2015.
The event, at which participants dove into the critical need to develop sustainable healthcare systems for low-resource countries, was created in collaboration with the Program in Global Surgery and Social Change at Harvard Medical School, the Office of Global Surgery and Health at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery, and the Steven C. and Carmella R. Kletjian Foundation. Faculty from Babson and Harvard, as well as partners from low and middle-income countries, led event participants through Babson-developed case studies to provide real-world examples of the impact of and need for entrepreneurial leaders in global healthcare.
