ABOUT US
Of the 20 million low-birth-weight babies born every year, 80% are born in rural areas of developing countries, and 3.5 million of them die. Embrace is bridging the gap in healthcare available to a rural-born baby and an urban-born baby by commercializing a $25 incubator that works with no electricity, has no moving parts, and is designed to work in a rural healthcare center or at home.
