In partnership with PATH/Digital Square with funding from Bayer Foundation and USAID, Medic has launched an EOI aimed at helping entrepreneurs more easily **access financing, technical resources, and opportunities for scale**. Through this EOI, qualifying respondents will become part of a continent-wide list that will be shared with donors, investors and implementing partners world-wide. Pending availability of resources, Digital Square will offer to qualifying respondents an organizational capacity self-assessment tool that supports organizations in becoming direct recipients of USAID funding, and be used to mobilize resources among a broader set of partners to support organizational capacity development and facilitate becoming direct recipients of international funding sources.

Additionally, a subset of respondents will be invited to participate in the first round of a DHE funded request for a grant application to:

- Expand your current product offering by leveraging the Community Health Toolkit (CHT), specifically for entrepreneurs located and/or supporting work in Kenya, Mali, Niger and/or Uganda.
- Develop your organizational capacity according to your priorities, including initiatives that unlock new grant funding opportunities from bilateral, multilateral, and private philanthropic donors; and;
- Gain exposure to local government buyers of digital tools, as well as other investors in the global health community.

Learn more and submit your interest [here](https://wiki.digitalsquare.io/images/0/00/DHE_Digital_Square_Africa_EOI_July_10_2022_FINAL.pdf)! **Deadline August 12th**
