On behalf of the @Digital Impact Alliance and the @Africa CDC, I’m thrilled to announce the launch of the Africa HealthTech Marketplace at #AHTS2024! 🚀 Showcasing a variety of locally designed, scalable digital health solutions, we created the Marketplace to make it easier for governments, health providers, and development organizations to implement the right solutions for their communities. I'm confident the Marketplace can drive meaningful development and collaboration across the African HealthTech Sector. This much-needed platform provides local innovators greater visibility for the incredible work they’re doing, and, most importantly, it fills a critical gap for the 600+ million people across Africa who lack access to basic medical care. Grateful for the excellent partnership and leadership from Digital Impact Alliance and members of the Africa CDC HealthTech Marketplace expert group Fatou Fall PATH Sylvere MUGUMYA James Fraser Madiro.org Munya Chivasa Mastercard Foundation Olivier Habumugisha, MBA HealthTech Hub Africa Nassir Idriss ADAM Mara Hansen Staples Sewu-Steve T.

SIL Launch and 2024 Startups Pitches

Our team is continuing to enjoy their experience at HealthTech Hub Africa's HealthTech Policy Summit this week in Kigali, Rwanda! Our Advisory Lead Immanuel Momanyi set the context for a session about the importance of investing in African healthtech and supporting both startups and Entrepreneur Support Organizations (ESOs). He emphasised the immense potential of African health innovation, as evidenced by recent successes across the continent. Investing in African healthtech is more than financial support—it's about driving sustainable impact in a dynamic and critical industry, fuelling growth for communities and economies alike. #HealthTechHubAfrica #InvestInAfrica #HealthInnovation Moses Waweru Wilfred Njagi
