NOTE: THIS WILL BE A PRIVATE EVENT With official development assistance flat-lining, new sources of funding will need to be identified to help make up the difference. Impact investing offers the opportunity to mobilize new and additional resources for global health and help improve outcomes by enabling health related innovations and social enterprises to grow and scale. However, the ecosystem for health focused social enterprises (HSEs) is not fully developed and that is making it difficult for many promising HSEs to access the appropriate capital and support they need to achieve maximum impact. This roundtable event brings together key players and stakeholders who are active in impact investing and global health, and begin a dialogue around how to work together to develop a supportive ecosystem that is necessary to allow HSEs to grow and scale, with an emphasis on creating an effective financial value chain to aid in their growth.
