India is a country where tens of millions of people don’t have access to a trained health professional that can give them basic health and wellness advice. The Bangalore-based mobile services company mDhil wants to change that.
印度极其缺乏训练有素的医疗专家,几千万人无法获得基本的卫生和健康咨询服务。总部位于班加罗尔的移动服务公司mDhil希望能够改变这种状况。
“India faces a tremendous shortage of doctors,” says Nandu Madhava, the Texas-raised, Harvard-educated social entrepreneur who started mDhil in 2009. “People would turn to quacks and old myths for health information that is rarely grounded in any science. We’re working to alleviate that problem.”
“医生极度匮乏是印度面临的一个老大难问题,”南渡o玛达瓦说。这位在德州长大,毕业于哈佛大学(Harvard University)的社会企业家于2009年创办了mDhil公司。“人们经常通过江湖郎中和古老的神话来获取几乎没有任何科学依据的健康信息。我们正在努力缓解这一问题。”
Madhava’s company started as an SMS messaging service where people paid for advice, but the approach failed to scale beyond a subscriber base of about 250,000. Two years ago, Madhava, a 40ish American expat of Indian origin, decided to take a different tack.
玛达瓦的公司起初从事有偿医疗短信服务,但这种方式无法推动用户群在达到大约25万人之后继续增长。两年前,这位40岁左右的印度裔美国人决定采取另一种策略。
