About The Project

Project SAMRIDH, launched in 2020 through a collaborative effort involving the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), Atal Innovation Mission, Women Entrepreneurship Platform, NITI Aayog, and other prestigious entities, was a landmark initiative managed by IPE Global. It signified a substantial leap in strengthening India's healthcare system and addressing emerging health challenges.


The core of SAMRIDH’s strategy was the unique integration of commercial, public, and philanthropic funds, creating a substantial capital pool of $300 million. This financial amalgamation provided grants and debt financing to healthcare enterprises and innovators, enhancing their capacity to deliver high-impact health solutions. In addition to financial aid, SAMRIDH offered critical technical assistance and capacity building, helping these organizations to leverage new sources of capital and adopt blended financing solutions for sustainable growth.


Recognized as one of 'India’s top 50 COVID-19 last mile responders' by the World Economic Forum and a recipient of the P3 Impact Award in 2022, SAMRIDH significantly improved the access, quality, and responsiveness of healthcare services in India, especially during the pandemic.


To capture and convey the essence of this impactful initiative, the hiring of a specialized videography agency was essential. This agency's scope of work encompassed developing a storyline, formulating key messages, creating a script, and developing video frame templates, including font typography. Additionally, they were responsible for selecting appropriate stock images and videos that resonated with SAMRIDH's mission and vision. This comprehensive process was aimed at creating a compelling one-minute video that effectively showcased SAMRIDH's mission, vision, achievements, and its role in transforming India's healthcare landscape.


SAMRIDH's mission focused on catalyzing market solutions and innovations to ensure accessible, affordable, and quality healthcare services for vulnerable populations. Its efforts contributed significantly towards India's Sustainable Development Goals, including Universal Health Coverage, setting a new standard in healthcare innovation and system strengthening.
