[Global Compact Network Kenya @GlobalcompactKE]

Sustainability in healthcare takes shape in everyday decisions about access to care, resource use and whether institutions can continue serving their communities.
This framed our Healthcare Sector Sustainability Leadership Breakfast with M.P. Shah Hospital and AAR Insurance.

[Global Compact Network Kenya @GlobalcompactKE]

Leaders explored how those decisions can deliver better care and stronger business performance. The discussion connected inclusive insurance with growth, AI and better data with patient safety, and community partnerships with more accessible healthcare services.

[Global Compact Network Kenya @GlobalcompactKE]

IKEA's approach showed the value created when sustainability is embedded in business operations.

The challenge is proving its economic value when benefits are long-term or hard to quantify. We will help companies turn commitments into measurable impact.

Having someone willing to fund your growth does not necessarily mean the funding makes sense.

That was one of the central challenges participants unpacked during Bootcamp 3 of the Growth and Sustainability Accelerator for SMEs at the Global Compact Network Kenya offices.

[Global Compact Network Kenya @GlobalcompactKE]

Focused on Growth Financing and Scaling, the session challenged SMEs to think beyond simply accessing capital. Through case studies, peer learning and practical exercises, they connected their growth plans to real capital needs and potential financing partners.
