The power of partnership.
The power of collaboration.
The power of community.
The power of Proximie.
"Those of us in global surgery have often observed a critical failure of global north innovations being deployed to the global south: they come as solutions looking for problems to solve. The danger with this is the proverbial man holding a hammer, to whom everything looks like a nail head. Proximie comes at a time when we know that it works. The Makueni case speaks for itself...It is now time to hit the surgical ground running and deploy this technology and reap all the benefits it will bring with it, both intended and contingent."
We are hugely grateful to Dr Stanley Aruyaru, MBChB, MMed, FCS, FACS, Consultant General and Laparoscopic Surgeon, for his kind and welcome words about Proximie and our Amazon Web Services (AWS)-enabled digital network of surgical innovation hubs that continues to grow in Kenya and across Africa.
