GS1 Egypt participates in 'Africa Health ExCon 2026' to support digital transformation in the health sector
GS1 Egypt is participating in the activities of the 'Africa Health ExCon 2026' exhibition and conference, which is considered one of the most prominent health events on the African continent. This participation aims to enhance digital transformation in the Egyptian health sector and develop the technological infrastructure for hospitals and medical institutions.
Through its presence at the exhibition, the company seeks to provide advanced technical solutions that contribute to improving the efficiency of medical supply chains. These solutions rely on the use of global standards for tracking medicines and medical supplies, which ensures patient safety and facilitates inventory management within health facilities.
GS1 Egypt also announced the introduction of a new package of incentives aimed at small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) operating in the medical field. This initiative aims to help these companies accelerate their compliance with global digital standards, which will assist them in competing in both local and international markets.
This move comes within the framework of the Egyptian state's ongoing efforts to develop the healthcare system and integrate modern technology into medical services. It is expected that these partnerships will contribute to strengthening Egypt's position as a regional hub for health and technical services in Africa.
The company concludes its participation by emphasizing the importance of cooperation between the public and private sectors to achieve Egypt's Vision 2030 in the field of digital health. These steps are part of a broader strategy aimed at fully digitizing the health sector, which will have a positive impact on the quality of services provided to citizens across the Republic.
