Reflecting on an inspiring experience at the 3rd Africa HealthTech Summit - AHTS in Kigali, where I had the privilege of connecting with key leaders, innovators and friends driving digital health across the continent. This year's summit has underscored the urgency of leveraging technology to transform healthcare systems as well as embracing innovations that can accelerate the impact we want to achieve. Addressing clinical needs while building health literacy, positioning digital health as a bridge to more accessible, effective healthcare Leveraging WhatsApp-based tools like the World Health Organization HealthAlert to address the unique needs of both healthcare providers and the communities they serve is an example of targeted, localised, and globally relevant content that can be catalytic to these users. The Summit highlighted the crucial role that private sector partnerships must play in supporting and scaling digital health solutions, especially in low-resource settings. Witnessing the commitment across sectors at the Africa HealthTech Summit reinforced the potential of these collaborative efforts. Together, we can transform digital health into a standard of care that reaches those who need it most.
