COVID-19 pandemic has caused the loss of millions of lives, disrupted livelihoods of billions, global healthcare systems and the economies. As well as reducing further loss of life and getting the pandemic under control, the  introduction of  COVID-19 vaccines present a greater challenge than ever in developing countries with weak infrastructure.Africa represents an emerging opportunity for investment within the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors, in view of its sizable population, rapidly growing economy and stable political environment. The continent has huge untapped potential and the main drivers of expenditure growth include the large burden of communicable diseases, rise of non-communicable diseases, ageing population, increasing urbanisation and rising income levels. Currently, Africa imports more than 80% of its pharmaceutical and medical consumables, only 20% are manufactured in South Africa, Kenya, Morocco and Egypt. African governments are proactively promoting the development of the pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors , facilitating foreign direct investment into the sectors most than ever. Join us for the Virtual SSCG Africa Healthcare Forum to hear our conversation and learn Investment Opportunities in Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare in Africa on Thursday 21 January 2021.<h2>AGENDA:</h2><ul><li>Addressing disconnected pharmaceutical value chain and sector: Enhancing resilience and partnerships (Africa - UK Partnerships for Health Systems (UKPHS))</li><li>The future of pharmaceutical: Boosting manufacturing, technologies and innovation to scale up and enhance efficiencies in the supply chain</li><li>Investing in African pharmaceutical and healthcare: Science parks, manufacturing infrastructure, healthcare systems and diagnosis technologies opportunities</li><li>Investing and incentivising Local Pharmaceutical Production (LPP)</li><li>Strengthening procurement and supply chain management systems</li><li>Addressing Africa’s overreliance on imports of pharmaceutical products</li><li>COVAX equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines in Africa: Progress and cooling logistical challenges</li><li>Overcoming and managing public health risk of counterfeit, weak regulatory frameworks, policy incoherencies and unregulated medicines </li></ul>Join us to connect with like minded CEOs, business leaders, officials, institutional investors, health professionals, entrepreneurs and multi national development organisations from across the world, to gain latest trends, insights, perspectives, strategies and practical best practices to drive African healthcare industry investment and improvement.<h2>SPEAKERS</h2><h3>09:00 - 10:30 GMT : SESSION 1 </h3>Financing Projects, Investment and Partnerships Opportunities in Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Mazi Sam Ohuabunwa - President at Pharmaceutical Society of NigeriaSailesh Navsaria - Group Director - Private Client Services at JTC Group Njide Ndili - Country Director at PharmAccess Foundation and Vice President at Healthcare Federation of NigeriaSaad Sheikh - Principal Investment, TLG CapitalMuhammad Ali Moosajee - Health Economist, South AfricaPride Azefor - Investment Director - Africa Practice at Commonwealth Enterprise and Investment CouncilNikhil Pereira-Kamath - CEO, Co-founder &amp; Director at Africa Healthcare NetworkJaco van Zyl - Health Economist at PharmaIntelligence ConsultingKaushal Shah - Head of Pharmaceuticals &amp; MedTech at Africa Health Business<h3>10:30 - 12:00 GMT : SESSION 2 </h3>Establishing Resilient African Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Sectors , Distributions, Supply Chains and SystemsJonathan Louw - Chief Executive Officer, South African National Blood ServiceProf David Katerere - Chair, PharmaConnect AfricaDr Abimbola Adebakin - CEO at Advantage Health Africa and founder of myPharmacyProf. Chimezie Anyakora - CEO at Bloom Public HealthFredrick Obondo - Head of Procurement &amp; Supply Chain, Goodlife Pharmacy AfricaAdjo Mfodwo - Global Health Expert/ConsultantDr Skhumbuzo Ngozwana - President &amp; CEO at Kiara Health and Board Member at South African Medical Devices Industry AssociationDr. Frasia Karua - Expert Committee Member at Pharmacy and Poisons Board and Member Global Board of Advisors at Tech Care for All (tc4a.com)Sonia Elkara - Senior Consultant and North Africa representative for IMCW Europe (part of IMC Worldwide)
