The conference focuses on the transformation of the healthcare industry in Africa through Artificial Intelligence: AI is increasing efficiencies in drug discovery, radiology, patient risk identification, primary healthcare, diagnosis and treatment.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) represents one of the most transformative technological phenomena to emerge in the 21st century. Its impact will be far reaching, touching practically every aspect of day-to-day life. It has been on an exponential rise in the past few years. Gone are the days where we could visualise such digitisation as part a Hollywood science fiction movie. Today, AI has become a part of our daily lives. More importantly, it has dynamically transformed the healthcare sector. Machine learning and AI have recently demonstrated a massive dominance of the healthcare industry by delivering some extraordinary work. AI is playing a pivotal role in ensuring that people stay healthy.
