Supporting innovators throughout their development.
Our non-profit supports and publishes international research that brings new insights to challenges afflicting underserved populations, and identifies HealthTech opportunities that help address those challenges.
In addition to supporting international research that informs fund management, TEAMFund’s Global Innovator Award grant funding, mentorship, and virtual incubator are helping to close the funding and knowledge gaps many innovators face in low- and middle-income regions enduring unmet healthcare needs.
“Almost immediately after the global implications of the pandemic were understood, TEAMFund reached out to offer their help on a whole range of medical supply, vaccine, and therapeutic issues. They worked closely with me during my tenure as special envoy for the African Union, and I found their detailed reporting quite insightful, their advisory quite helpful, and their overall assistance quite important to our response efforts.”
