The most important thing a baby should do in the first month of life is to grow. But there are 20 million babies born prematurely, primarily in developing countries, often in areas that don’t have access to innovations in modern medicine. 4 million of these babies die each year. Those that do survive often develop life-long health problems. Embrace Global is a social enterprise that has created a low-cost, easy-to-use, portable infant warmer that costs less than 1% of an incubator amd can save millions of lives.

Reason:
Embrace has produced a smartly-designed, context-appropriate invention that can save millions of lives. With such a dynamic and entrepreneurial team running the organization, this should be the first of many world-changing products.
