About the Inteleos Foundation
As a global NGO, we are committed to leading evidence-based, outcomes-driven technology interventions as we work to transform healthcare systems in limited-resourced and historically under-represented (HUR) communities. As an emerging public charity and operating foundation founded in 2022, we have relied on the 50-year expertise of the Inteleos Family of Brands to inform strategic direction in addressing disparities of access to ultrasound.
Our work is guided by four key priorities: enriching healthcare provider education and training, catalyzing workforce development alongside access to capital, fostering social entrepreneurship coupled with Innovation, and identifying gaps in diagnostic service delivery across health systems.
At the Inteleos Foundation, we’re not just talking about health equity— we’re actively constructing it, alongside our community health partners in over 20 nations.
