Scaling up Inclusive HealthcareHystra We’ll explore 4 types of inclusive business models that are revolutionizing healthcare in low and middle income countries – inclusive clinics and hospitals, pharmacy-based, community-based, and risk-prevention models. For each we will share a few insights from the study we are conducting, and ask the tables to help us define key challenges to scale, and key innovations or partnerships that could help solve those. |

Revolutionising CareCreas, Phitrust, Ageas It is expected that 70+ million people will be 65 years old and older by 2030 (this is approximately equivalent to the population of France). Pressing demographics, increased health care needs with mental health issues at the raise and costs combined with public expenditure restrictions in the EU push governments to find cost-effective caring solutions and to implement public/private partnerships and strong ecosystems. This session seeks to bring together investors, entrepreneurs and health representatives (both public and corporates) that are already leading, so that their experiences can help us understand the complexities of transformative healthcare, open paths and inspire new possibilities. |

Mental x Financial WellbeingNN Group Chicken or egg? Let's look beyond financial literacy, resilience and empowerment to address a deeper challenge: the tangled link between mental health and financial well-being. Depressions and suicide rates are much higher amongst those with financial distress. But studies also show that having high stress levels, or other mental health issues, can cause people to fall into financial distress. What should we, as investors for impact, fund to enable more people to cover their basic needs, have self-efficacy and make sound financial decisions? Session participants will strive to answer this question at the systemic level. A fishbowl format will allow us to exchange expertise, innovative practices and challenges on funding the intersection of financial and mental wellbeing, with the ultimate aim of promoting (local) innovation and catalysing social change. |

Co-funding the FutureWe Share Forward Foundation Spurred by the EVPA 2021 CoLab Award the community of practice (CoP) in health was incepted by 3 funders and has now grown to 14 members, with the goal to jointly learn from each other, share funding opportunities and co-fund social enterprises in healthcare. In this session the CoP members (foundations and impact investors) will share their journey, their lessons learned and also introduce you to a concrete deal they have been working on. This session will present how to minimise silos in the social finance ecosystem and ignite more collaboration. It aims to provide a model for other ecosystems and funders to start working together on mobilising capital and resources to support social entrepreneurs in the best and most efficient way to maximise impact.

Access to Health in the Global SouthBayer Foundation Why Supporting Women Entrepreneurs Matters While the vast majority of venture capital goes from male investors to male entrepreneurs, it is often times female entrepreneurs who have the most relevant, groundbreaking ideas and the highest Social Return on Investment (SROI). More often than not, their enterprises have a social agenda and an underlying paradigm of mutual support and solidarity. To achieve SDG 3 (“Good Health and Wellbeing”), a global community of this nature needs to be curated and built. Specifically, the Global South needs role models and best practices to spur a movement towards sustainability for all. Given the fact that it is Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs) who carry the biggest burden of the climate, hunger an health crisis, while not being responsible for it, this session will showcase three outstanding female social innovators and their business models from and for Sub-Saharan Africa, discussing what the challenges and opportunities for growth towards building a relevant ecosystem are and how we can move towards relevant scale. |

Triple Wins: Equity, Sustainability & HealthDRK Foundation The overall objective of the workshop is to introduce systemic and scalable approaches to addressing people and planetary health simultaneously through water, sanitation and women’s health initiatives. Equity, sustainability and health outcomes can be achieved simultaneously by focusing on dual and triple impact approaches. DRK and Julius Bäers support early stage impact innovations from around the world that simultaneously address sustainability, equity and health. Circular approaches to water and sanitation, green approaches to women’s menstrual health underpinned by efforts to address inequity are possible. Three innovative social entrepreneurs, at various stages of scaling their impact, will discuss their win-win-win approaches in this workshop. |
