Points clés à retenir
In Africa, pharmacies often struggle to stock life-saving medicines due to their cost and drugs fail to get to those who need them most. As such, there is an increasing number of health tech startups looking to tackle what’s mostly a supply chain challenge with solutions built around different models. With the Middle East and Africa’s pharma market said to be worth around $100 billion, the market opportunity is significant. But most importantly, such solutions balance commercial and social impact.
