IDB Lab, the innovation laboratory of the Inter-American Development Bank Group, will invest US$750 thousand to support the Jamaican company Novamed to build Catalyst, the first health innovation accelerator and incubator in the Caribbean region.
 
The move will benefit on a greater scale vulnerable populations and public agencies delivering care through public-private partnerships.
 
Through the grant, IDB Lab and Novamed will support, catalyze, and accelerate innovation in health and the development of an ecosystem to grow new or improved health solutions in the Caribbean region.
 
The funds will be used to pilot several projects and develop regional integration and cooperation.
