Uthabiti was founded on the need to increase access to safe medicines across communities. We share a personal experience of a victim of counterfeit medicines. In 2016 having purchased a drug, contraceptive, off the counter the patient further fell victim to an unplanned pregnancy. Ever since she has struggled to make ends meet! With little education and lack of a stable income, she fends away from poverty and provides for her little one through odd means. With adequate research and a clear show of need of safe health products, Uthabiti started its track and trace of pharmaceuticals and dispensation of safe health products across vulnerable communities, the result being equitable supply and provision of legitimate drugs to communities targeted by counterfeit medicines.

What do you think of Uthabiti?

A HUGE part of what early stage companies, and even late stage ones, need and get on MedStartr is honest feedback from actual patients, clinicians, hospital leaders and industry insiders. It is very easy to get tunnel vision as a founder. Please tell the team that runs this company what you think.

Clinical Benefit Potential

The potential for a project to have a large and significant impact on medical care, treatment, or prevention.

Feasibility

The likelihood that this will provide benefit for patients / care givers and that the founders can execute on their vision and plan.

Innovativeness

The distinguishing features, concept, or technology that differentiates the entry compared to others that already exist and are in widespread use.

Fundability

The reviewers' beliefs that the idea is fundable or can make it to sustainability without outside investment.

Scalability

Some great ideas are destined to failure because they are too complex or too expensive. The reviewer should consider the likelihood that a project as explained, or perhaps with some tweaks, could possibly become a worldwide solution within a reasonable time frame.

Presentation Quality

How well the team presented the idea.
