About ADHS

The Africa Digital Health Summit (ADHS) is the leading platform for convening thought leaders, policymakers, healthcare professionals, and technology innovators to explore the transformative potential of digital health in Africa. Founded in 2020 by Premier Health Systems (PHS) Consult, ADHS was established in response to the urgent need for innovative, technology-driven solutions to Africa’s pressing healthcare challenges.

The Urgency for Digital Health in Africa

Africa faces some of the most complex healthcare challenges in the world, including high disease burdens, limited access to healthcare infrastructure, shortages of skilled healthcare workers, and insufficient health data systems. Despite these challenges, Africa also holds immense potential for digital transformation. With a rapidly growing population, increasing mobile phone penetration, and expanding internet access, technology presents a unique opportunity to bridge healthcare gaps, improve service delivery, and enhance health outcomes.

From telemedicine and AI-driven diagnostics to electronic health records and big data analytics, digital health innovations have the power to revolutionize healthcare accessibility, affordability, and efficiency. ADHS provides a platform to showcase, discuss, and accelerate these innovations, ensuring that technology serves as a catalyst for Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and supports the achievement of the health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Africa.
