Our pilot featuring 5 East African HGS was launched in 2021, followed by a Pan-African expansion in 2022 supporting 14 HGS and another cohort of 9 HGS was supported in 2023. This year we are launching our 4th cohort from which selected HGS will receive highly customized advisory support delivered by a world class panel of experts.
We will work in collaboration with your team to design and deliver a customized, four-month acceleration roadmap, to support your company’s specific growth needs across three key areas: technical and contextual advisory, investment readiness and matching to strategic partners.
In this year, we are also expecting to have diverse healthcare companies across Africa, especially those who are passionate to expand their business across the border and to contribute to socio-economic development of Africa from healthcare perspectives.
We are co-founded by the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD) and financially supported by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
In order to qualify, businesses must:
1. Be a for-profit and qualified company at the growth or mature stage with proven products or services
2. Strengthen Africa’s healthcare system
3. Be described as a Home Grown Solution
