Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouli on Monday inaugurated, on behalf of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, the third edition of Africa Health ExCon, the largest African health exhibition and conference, under the theme “Your Gateway to Innovation and Trade.”

The event is held from June 3 to 6, 2024, at Al Manara International Conference Center – Egypt International Exhibition Center in Cairo. This annual event is the largest in the health sector across Africa, showcasing international expertise and contributions to enhance the medical sector throughout the continent.

The Africa Health ExCon 2024, organized by the Egyptian Authority for Unified Procurement, Medical Supply, and the Management of Medical Technology, presents a golden opportunity for companies operating in healthcare and pharmaceuticals to explore investment possibilities in Africa, thereby accelerating the growth of these industries across the continent.

The conference and exhibition bring together all representatives of the medical and health sectors, providing them with an exceptional opportunity to view the latest products and services across various medical fields. The conference is expected to attract more than 500 major companies from different countries around the world, along with over 60,000 visitors from more than 100 countries.

One of the key objectives of Africa Health ExCon 2024 is to align with the African Union’s Agenda 2063, particularly its aspiration for “A Prosperous Africa,” which focuses on achieving inclusive growth and sustainable development. This includes promoting the localization of medical industries, especially pharmaceuticals, and addressing the challenges facing the African continent in this field.
