Session:

Melissa Bime is a 22-year-old licensed nurse from Cameroon. Being of the medical background, Melissa got to experience first-hand the challenges patients in Cameroon faced at the hands of the health care system. She is passionate about addressing these problems and she believes that by leveraging on simple technologies, we can go a long way to providing solutions to these problems. At the age of 20, immediately after completing nursing school, Melissa decided to start INFIUSS, which is an online blood bank that connects hospitals with blood banks, especially to those without blood banks. Through her work with INFIUSS, and her passion for entrepreneurship, Melissa hopes to be able to continuously propose and provide solutions to Africa’s healthcare concerns.
