Show notes
My guest today is Dr Pratap Kumar. He wears multiple hats including being a senior lecturer at one of East Africa's leading business schools ‒Strathmore Business School‒ and also serving as the CEO of a digital health company. That company is known as Health-E-Net and they are on a mission to revolutionize the capture and use of high quality data in global health. Health-E-Net has developed a suite of innovations and you will be hearing about some of them in today's episode. In fact, one of the innovations that you will hear about won the global health innovation prize in 2018. You can learn more about Health-E-Net by visiting: https://www.health-e-net.org/
