Case Study Snapshot:
HIV Innovation Sprint in Collaboration with Gilead
DHIT in collaboration with Gilead facilitated Innovation Sprints across three cities focused on HIV Prevention. The HIV Innovation Sprint is a differentiated approach to generating community trust, capturing critical insights, unlocking innovation opportunities, and building capacity across the HIV prevention ecosystem.

“In a time of feeling powerless, it is nice to be able to think of ideas that will still advance HIV Prevention and treatment. It also encouraged a lot of thinking outside of the box.”
“The collaboration and innovation of ideas from the entire group were superb. We inspired each other to greater thoughts and results.”
“I loved the bringing together of ideas from diverse fields and experiences.”
“The coming together of people of differing cultural and professional backgrounds was AMAZING!”
“Loved the support we got from our facilitators.”
“I loved just being part of the future of HIV prevention, exploring digital solutions to the problem.”
“I loved the opportunity to think outside of the box and integrate technology and digital health.”
“Mixing technologists with SMEs to get to the root of the issue is a great idea!”
