Digital wellbeing is not a luxury. It has grown to be a requirement. Access to essential health services is lacking for almost half of the continent. However, telehealth has grown to over 75 million individuals. Electronic health systems are enhancing patient care by 90 %. The issue is not whether technology will change how American care is currently practiced.
The GITEX Digi Health Africa Summit is bringing together the industry’s most accomplished thoughts to help maintain this momentum. Just 30 % of African countries now have comprehensive health strategies. This hub has a unique opportunity to be in the space where it occurs, to affect the government’s agenda, and to move up and allocate more money to creative solutions for a steeper advance.

On April 15, the GITEX plan items will be dedicated to investments in digital health to beat barriers.

Frontier Tech, which is the subject of the day on April 16, belongs to the explorers. The Internet of Medical Things, blockchain, and AI are examples of current care, a genre that was once reserved for science fiction. The boundary is here, from detail medication to biotech. In terms of global digital health development, Africa’s acceptance of these developments establishes it as a chief, not a follower.
Events can only be as effective as their believe leaders.
Nanthalile Mugala, the Chief of Africa Region for PATH, may join the line-up this year, and she will bring skills to advance HIV care within the field of public digital health. The African Affairs Task Force’s Talla Kebe will offer vital policy insights. The Society for Telemedicine &, eHealth’s Adeolu Arogundade provides information on how telemedicine and mobile health ( mobile health ) will speed up diagnosis and eliminate unnecessary paperwork.
GITEX Africa 2025 is more than just another occasion. It acts as a real motivator for the care system’s real transformation in Africa.
