10 Health Moonshots: How a Global Army of Health Transformers is Accomplishing One Impossible Dream

 

The Jefferson College of Population Health will host the Krein brothers in "10 Health Moonshots: How a Global Army of Health Transformers is Accomplishing One Impossible Dream," on September 12, 2018 from 8:30-9:30 am in the Connelly Auditorium in the Hamilton Building on 1001 Locust Street.

In 2011, StartUp Health introduced a new model for transforming health by investing a global army of coachable entrepreneurs to improve the health and wellbeing of everyone in the world. StartUp Health has the world's largest digital health portfolio (more than 250 companies spanning six continents, and more than 20 countries and 70 cities), and is organizing this rapidly growing army of Health Transformers along with the world's 'batteries included' leaders, innovators, and investors to solve 10 Health Moonshots, each of which can impact at least a billion people. 

Join us on September 12th to learn more about Moonshot Thinking, the 10 Health Moonshots, and the Health Transformer Mindsets needed to reinvent the future of health.
