Improving health

OUR TEAM
Our story begins with our founders, Julius and Samuel, both medical doctors and social entrepreneurs with over a decade of experience improving healthcare in some of the world’s most challenging regions.
After successfully scaling a digital health financing solution across sub-Saharan Africa, they have leveraged their expertise to establish Elucid to enable businesses to leverage social and business value of health and livelihoods in their value chains.
