Kenya's iHub launches Health Meets Tech Application Challenge

iHub has partnered EpiAfric and Facebook to run the app challenge, which will take place from 9-10 June 2018 with the goal of developing solutions that can improve the quality of healthcare delivery in Kenya and lead to better healthcare outcomes.

To identify health challenges to solve, the iHub and its partners will review some of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) health targets.

The winning teams will be given three months of incubation support and an enabling environment to pilot their solutions by the iHub.
