HealthTech Summit: Data, AI & Connectivity - Transforming Healthcare Delivery in Africa

Africa is entering a new phase of digital health, where data, AI, and connectivity are enabling more predictive, personalised, and efficient healthcare systems. Anchored by Rwanda’s commitment to integrated health data systems, this session explores how countries are turning health data into actionable insights, from disease surveillance and modelling to clinical decision-making and remote healthcare.

The session examines how connectivity, digital infrastructure, and data systems are enabling advanced use cases, including AI-driven diagnostics, real-time analytics, remote patient monitoring, and population health intelligence. It also addresses the conditions required to scale these capabilities sustainably, including governance, interoperability, trusted infrastructure, and effective partnerships between governments, mobile operators, technology providers, innovators, and health institutions.
