Two Strathmore University Business School Postgraduate students, Abigail Ndirangu and Winnie Abuto were part of the winning team at the 2021 BAHM Case Competition. The other team members were Vanessa Folkerts and Penghui Jason Chen both from Wharton Business School, USA. Abigail and Winnie are both in their second year of the MBA in Healthcare Management Programme.<\/p>\n

The team\u2019s winning business idea, Nufaika Health, is a B2B e-commerce marketplace for pharmaceutical procurement designed to empower small pharmacies to sell quality medicines in rural areas in Kenya.<\/p>\n

Speaking during the closing symposium, Kevin Schulman, President of BAHM and a Professor of Medicine and Economics at Stanford University applauded the students for their innovative business models. \u201cStudents developed truly innovative telehealth business models for under-resourced or underserved communities at a time when COVID-19 has accelerated the use of technology in delivering critical healthcare services. The results of this competition demonstrate the importance of collaboration across campuses and continents to drive solutions that can have a global impact,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

About the<\/strong>\u00a0BAHM Case Competition 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

The BAHM Case Competition 2021 was hosted virtually and brought together more than 80 students worldwide, with seven of the 21 competing teams representing a mix of schools and countries, including the United States, Canada, Costa Rica, Spain, Kenya, and India. This year\u2019s theme for the competition was,\u00a0Use of Telehealth Business Models to Reach Underserved Communities.<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0The teams came up with business proposals which were then scored by an international group of telehealth leaders in technology, health care delivery, policy, and investment.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s competition was hosted and organized by a team of faculty members from BAHM member schools:\u00a0 Ingrid Nembhard and Steve Sammut, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania; Ben Ngoye,\u00a0 Strathmore Business School in Nairobi, Kenya; and Magda Rosenm\u00f6ller, IESE, Barcelona, Spain. Two additional BAHM schools\u2014The Indian School of Business, in Hyderabad and Mohali, India, and the INCAE Business School in Costa Rica\u2014served as collaborating institutions.<\/p>\n

Speaking on her experience, Abigail said, \u201cIt was a great learning experience that required teamwork and commitment. Winnie and I were in Nairobi while our teammates were miles across the world, with an 11-hour time difference. We would meet early mornings\/early nights, several times a week, and towards the end of the competition several times daily. We were juggling professional work, schoolwork, and our personal lives but we were committed to bringing our heads together, draw on our strengths and experiences, and be reliable team members.\u201d<\/p>\n

Winnie described her competition experience as both rewarding and challenging. \u201cThe experience was both challenging and rewarding. It took a lot of hard work and sacrifice; from brainstorming and evaluating ideas, to doing research and conducting interviews, while juggling studies and work at the same time. We were able to strike a good balance and had fun too,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She further noted that working as a team meant among other things such as considering different perspectives, appreciating each team member\u2019s contribution, and acknowledging that even though each of us had great ideas, we had to objectively choose the one that gave us the best chance of winning and implementing.<\/p>\n

Telemedicine offers many advantages over the traditional healthcare visit but has until recently been underutilized. The onset of the Covid-19 pandemic caused an increased acceleration in the use of telehealth all over the world. Could telehealth be the new post covid reality for the healthcare sector?<\/p>\n

Our MBA Healthcare Management Programme aims to equip managers with relevant skills for leading and managing the various facets and challenges that confront professional hospital and clinic managers, managers of NGO and faith-based health providers, and professionals in the emerging insurance, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device industries.<\/p>\n
