SAP’s Regional Sales Director, Titilayo Adewumi, added, “Innovation in healthcare goes beyond technology—it’s about meaningful community impact. This collaboration will leave a lasting legacy.”
AMCE, established by the African Export-Import Bank, focuses on treating non-communicable diseases like cancer and heart conditions, integrating research and education into its operations.
