Health, Economic, and Social Value
To address these fundamental issues of access and infrastructure that plague medical care around the world, Babson is establishing the new Kerry Murphy Healey Center for Health Innovation and Entrepreneurship.
The Healey Center’s involvement with the University of Global Health Equity (UGHE) is the latest connection between Babson and Rwanda. In the past, Babson had operated an entrepreneurial center in the country and sent teams of students to Rwanda to teach entrepreneurship.
Babson and Pfizer share a similar set of values and a commitment to making positive, breakthrough changes, Dr. Albert Bourla, the chairman and CEO of Pfizer says. And, his [2021] Commencement address further strengthened the relationship between the two entrepreneurial organizations.
An interdisciplinary team of Babson professors is researching the growing disparity in access to good health care in the United States, funded by a new faculty scholarship from The Arthur M. Blank School for Entrepreneurial Leadership.
