Read moreTrueSpec Africa is a healthtech company focused on bringing innovative solutions to complex problems affecting populations and industries worldwide. We developed a portable device that uses artificial intelligence to allow hospitals, pharmacies, pharmaceutical laboratories and quality control centers to determine whether or not a drug is genuine in less than 10 seconds anytime and anywhere in the world.
Around the world, millions people are exposed to high risk of illness or death from taking poor- quality medication used to prevent or treat most of tropical diseases. Existing drug’s testing devices are offered at a high price and not affordable in low and middle income countries.
Our goal is to protect people through improving the ability of national drug regulators to secure the drug supply chain. We do this by providing our platform as a service tool to drug regulators for their use in real time for drug quality checking, monitoring and reporting, all in the hope of reducing mortality due to fake drugs in Africa and in the world.
To end the year, which has been complicated for everyone, we would like to warmly thank all those who have contributed to sharing our vision to the four corners of the planet and to enhancing our work. It is in large part thanks to you that we continue to innovate, impact and deliver tangible solutions adapted to the economic, societal and environmental realities of Africa.
Among the thousands of people who have shown their support to us around the world, many have stood out for their professionalism, know-how and involvement. We call them "Gold Ambassador".
It is therefore with great pleasure that we present to you the Gold Ambassadors of TrueSpec-Africa 2020.
