Behind the Digital

By: Healthnika
  • Summary

  • In the past few years, the Digital Health market in Africa has witnessed some growth. Startup entrepreneurs continue to find ways to reduce Africa's health burden, by creating scalable solutions which enable patients and practitioners to leverage data for the ease and speed of delivery.


    This growth has been helped, no doubt, by the increase in smartphone adoption and internet penetration across the continent.


    Behind the Digital (BTD) keeps up with the digital health space in Africa (and, sometimes, elsewhere across the globe), tracking the players, brands, institutions, stakeholders and underlying issues.


    This podcast unravels the successes, failures, gaps, challenges and potentials in that space and enhances access to information and insights for stakeholders in health and next-generation builders of digital health solutions.
