MENA Healthcare Industry Needs
The Healthcare industry in MENA was one of the few industries to observe an instant impact from the global pandemic, reaching an all-time high in VC funding in 2020 growing 4x compared to the year before. This shed light on the need for Tech integration in MENA’s healthcare industries, where Egypt took the lead in most capital invested in Healthcare by Q3’21 with startups like pharmaceuticals marketplace Yodawy and IoT-integrated patient management solutions platform SoTech raising major rounds this year.
