Private Investments in Public Good for Global Health: How Do We Combine Forces in an Equitable Way

In times of an unprecedented, catastrophic decline in institutional funding to address the global health crisis - particularly in low-and-middle income countries (LMICs) - there is a pressing need for private sector actors to step up in innovative and radically collaborative ways to fill the funding gap and prevent immediate and mid-term negative impacts on global health.

Specifically, scalable, replicable health care innovators need access to investments along the continuum of capital (from grants to investments).

This session will showcase how unlikely partners join forces to de-risk engagements, accelerate processes and scale solutions that produce sizeable, sustainable, and positive health outcomes for the most vulnerable populations.

The goal of this session is to actively engage in dialogue about the complementarity effects among stakeholders in the global health space.

This workshop will identify synergies, overlaps and low-hanging fruits for collaboration to break down silos and mobilize resources for the creation of public goods for health. Through examples or creative co-financing, the workshop will illustrate models already pursued and challenge institutions, funders, and implementers to develop pragmatic solutions in this new environment of sustainable funding needs beyond traditional donors.
