About IIH

Healthcare is usually slow and boring. We believe in its potential to be exciting and entertaining. But changing the healthcare experience is hard – and we’re gonna need all the help we can get…!

Ifakara Innovation Hub is a community of inspiration, ideation, and collaboration for solution development. It expands the innovation ecosystem to rural Tanzania by looking realistically at the trade-offs between knowledge exploration i.e. research and exploitation of technological innovation (development and testing products) and establishing innovations compatible with the existing social, economic, and administrative systems.

Founded in Tanzania in 2008, we have now helped over 500K patients globally by combining technology, design, and operational excellence to help patients access the best clinical support when they need it - wherever they are.

We’ve raised over $160M in funding from Aussie and Silicon Valley investors who were early backers of Uber, Canva, and Airbnb. With plans to launch into several more markets, and offline channels, and tackle new conditions.

We’re looking to continue building our team of exceptional weapons who are passionate about healthcare, aren’t afraid to work hard, and invest in others through direct and honest feedback. This approach enables us to make the most impactful changes to improve the health of millions of patients globally.
