SWF09 Interviews: Dr. Victoria Hale from Nathaniel Whittemore on Vimeo.

While this isn't in her official bio, Dr. Victoria Hale is, to sum it up, a badass. Founder of the Institute for OneWorld Health, Dr. Hale's mission is to create structures, markets, and firms that ensure that even the poor have access to the health care technology that we have available and that people aren't priced out of the treatment they need. OneWorld Health takes promising treatments for developing world diseases that traditional pharma doesn't see much of an opportunity for and takes them through the expensive market-preparation process. She's now building a new organization, Medicines360.

All students, please watch at least the last minute or two for some of the best career advice you can get.

Nathaniel Whittemore is the founder of Assetmap. Previously he was the founding director of the Northwestern University Center for Global Engagement.
