MedTec AfricaPlay episode
Show notes
In this episode, I chat with Remi Adeseun, the Global Director of Salient Advisory and with Jessica Vernon, CEO and Founder of Maisha Meds.
Salient Advisory is a healthcare consulting firm whose latest Market Intelligence Report is making waves across Africa’s digital health scene. The report is titled “Innovations in Digitizing Health Supply Chains in Africa” and Remi will be sharing some insights from this groundbreaking publication.
As a sneak peak, I can tell you that report finds that there are 350 innovators digitizing health supply chain processes across the continent. Now, one of these innovators is Jessica and her company Maisha Meds. Based in Nairobi, Maisha Meds has created the first and largest digital network of private pharmacies and clinics in East Africa.
Together, Remi and Jess will be talking about the findings of the report and what it all means for digitally transforming health supply chains across Africa.
