The event will be an opportunity to reflect on how access models have helped deliver better healthcare for populations living at the base of the pyramid – including key hurdles and achievements, and how learnings can help define next steps. It will also provide perspectives on how innovative partnerships, inclusive business approaches, digital health, impact investment and local solutions can help shape the future of access to healthcare in lower-income countries.

Novartis Social Business stakeholder dialogue events on access to healthcare
All our Novartis Social Business programs take a “learn by doing” approach as we look for new and better ways to expand access to healthcare in lower-income settings. As part of that, we are committed to transparency and dialogue – and our series of stakeholder events endeavors to do just that.
