We’re heading to Kigali for the Africa HealthTech Summit 2026!

From 30 September to 2 October, Cynthia Kahumbura, our Co-Executive Director and Benjamin Mulyungi, our Head of Technology, will join health leaders, governments, innovators and partners from across the continent to explore what it takes to build intelligent health systems that work for people.

As Africa moves from digital health pilots toward solutions that can operate at scale within public systems, we look forward to sharing what we are learning from digital health initiatives and are interested in learning from others building tech that will help improve our health systems.

If you’ll be at , we’d love to connect.
