On this episode, we had the privilege of hosting Dr. Ola Brown, a prominent figure in healthcare and the founder of Flying Doctors Nigeria and HealthCap Africa.
Our conversation delves into financing healthcare in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs). Dr. Brown shares invaluable insights on what health tech founders should consider when serving underserved populations.
One of the key takeaways is the emphasis on innovative health services being affordable, acceptable, and accessible to the communities they aim to serve.
Dr. Brown highlights the delicate balance required when identifying a market gap. She wisely reminds founders that it's not just about finding a gap in the market but ensuring there is a market in that gap. This perspective is crucial for sustainable and impactful solutions in healthcare.
