Join Startups Dil Se hosts Riddhi Gore and Anthony Prakash for a fascinating conversation with the team behind Safi - an innovative startup tackling the intersection of climate change and public health.
University of Waterloo graduates Miraal Kabir(CEO), Daria Margarit(COO) & Martin Turuta(CTO) share how their journey began with a UN climate challenge and evolved into a mission to prevent disease outbreaks in East Africa, where drought conditions are forcing a shift to camel milk with higher disease risks.Β
The founders discuss their clever solution: a smart pasteurization control unit that ensures milk safety without destroying nutrients. They reveal the challenges of introducing new technology in regions where 80-90% of milk flows through informal markets, and how their pilots in Rwanda and Kenya shaped their approach.
You'll hear about the technical innovations behind their device - from automated whisking toΒ
temperature monitoring and data tracking capabilities that provide oversight throughout the supply chain.Β Plus, discover their expansion plans beyond East Africa to countries like India and Pakistan, and their exploration of applications for different milk types.
This episode offers rare insights into social entrepreneurship, appropriate technology design, and what it takes to make a meaningful impact on global health challenges accelerated by climate change.
Listen now to be inspired by these young innovators and their journey from university case competitions to tackling one of today's most pressing public health issues.
