Accelerating Innovation for Mothers (AIM) 2.0

Globally, approximately 287,000 women die every year from pregnancy-related conditions and complications, with most of these deaths occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Although investment in global maternal health has increased in the past 30 years, research and development (R&D) of new products has been a neglected area.
