The latest episode of a podcast hosted by Entrepreneurship at Cornell, Startup Cornell, features Osei Boateng ’18, MHA ’20, founder of OKB Hope Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to transforming health care delivery in Africa especially in rural and low-income communities.
The organization offers mobile health clinics that travel to remote locations in Ghana to offer routine medical care.
Boateng is also one of the finalists for CNN’s Hero of the Year contest. You can vote for him every day until Dec. 5 at this link.
The Startup Cornell podcast, which launched in summer 2021, features interviews with Cornell entrepreneurs, who tell their stories of successes and failures and offer actionable advice for building and growing a business. It’s available on the Entrepreneurship at Cornell website, as well as Apple podcasts, Spotify and Soundcloud. It’s being created with help from Bert Odom-Reed of the Cornell Broadcast Studios and edited by Abigail Younger.
