Social Entrepreneurship in Healthcare: Bringing Business Skills to Social Causes As global healthcare systems begin to reevaluate the healthcare needs of its citizens, entrepreneurs are playing increasingly vital roles by leveraging the sophisticated business skills and global networks of the private sector to solve healthcare problems in the public sector. These models for entrepreneurial collaboration are unique in history. They create sustainable businesses which do not rely on traditional philanthropy, but instead align the interests of traditional competitors and empower citizens by building foundations of economically sound revenue generating clusters that can organically grow and adapt to solve today's and tomorrow's healthcare problems. The National Institute for Pharmaco-Economics and Healthcare Policy is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to advancing social entrepreneurship and bringing the private and public sectors together to create a more equitable, effective, and sustainable global healthcare system. In this role it acts as a strategic partner to government, industry and NGOs that are dedicated to accelerating innovative healthcare research, improving access, and eliminating healthcare disparities worldwide. In our increasingly interdependent world the challenges we face to improve healthcare cannot be solved by government, corporations, or individuals working alone. To effectively solve our global healthcare crisis it is essential to develop an integrated decision making chain by engaging national and world community leaders, inspiring them with strategic insights, and, enabling them with creative synchronized strategic plans developed in collaboration with a multidisciplinary team from industry, the private sector and government.
