Business Proposal

50

Student Scholarships

Potential Patients Served

$500K

Secured Funding
Working with the Clinical Speech Language Pathology master's program at Alfaisal University, we conducted market research and statistical data analysis to determine national gaps and challenges facing people with disabilities. Our research findings led us to the significant percentage of undeserved populations living in rural areas who have limited healthcare access. We then targeted charities and corporate social responsibility programs with specific mandates serving: people with disabilities, rural patients, children and youth. Finally, we positioned the business proposal by creating win-win opportunities that connect between student scholarships, clinical treatments, potential patients and funder strategic priorities, which helped the university secure a grant worth 2 Million Saudi Riyals ($533,000) for the next two years: https://shorturl.at/ayZ36
