NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

Africa’s unpreparedness to handle health crises has been laid bare with the COVID-19 pandemic. The virus has also shown that a weak health infrastructure in a country or continent will expose the rest of the world to great risk.

While there are many innovative companies leveraging technology and have adapted ideas to reach the most vulnerable on the continent, very few investors understand the terrain or how impactful interventions can be. That is why experienced subject matter experts should be leading investment conversations about how to sustainably invest in and scale health innovation businesses in Africa.

Flying Doctors Healthcare Investment Company (FDHIC), a leading healthcare investment company in Africa with portfolio companies in different sectors across the healthcare value chain, seeks to start the conversation to discuss the impact of funding on the future of healthcare in Africa.

Time: 4 pm in West Central Africa
