The African Training and Research Centre in Administration for Development (CAFRAD) is pleased to host, at its headquarters in Rabat, Morocco, as co-organizer, the HealthTech Congress 2026, a major scientific event to be held from February 10 to 12, 2026.<\/p>\n

Organized jointly with the Moroccan Society for Digital Health (SMSD) and the University of Technology of Troyes (UTT), this international event will bring together two flagship conferences: the Global Summit of Digital Health (GSDH) and the Smart Healthcare International Conference (SHeIC).<\/p>\n

A Scientific and Strategic Crossroads for Africa<\/strong><\/p>\n

HealthTech 2026 builds on the success of previous editions, including the one held during GITEX Africa 2025, and aims to become a continental hub for research and innovation in digital health.<\/p>\n

The congress seeks to position Morocco as a center for technological transfer and scientific cooperation between Africa and its international partners, in line with the strategic vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, may God assist Him, for a united, innovative, and sovereign Africa.<\/p>\n

CAFRAD, a Driver of Governance and Digital Transformation<\/strong><\/p>\n

As an intergovernmental Pan-African organization, CAFRAD places digital transformation at the core of its mission to modernize public administration.<\/p>\n

Under the leadership of its Director General, Dr. Coffi Dieudonn\u00e9 ASSOUVI\u2014who also serves as Honorary President of HealthTech 2026\u2014the Centre brings its institutional and strategic expertise to make digital technology a lever for performance, equity, and sustainability in African health systems.<\/p>\n

This co-organization follows the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding on July 29, 2025, in Rabat between CAFRAD and the Moroccan Society for Digital Health (SMSD). This partnership marks an important milestone toward the creation of a Pan-African digital health ecosystem grounded in governance, scientific research, and technological innovation.<\/p>\n

Central Theme: \u201cHarnessing Technology for Health Equity\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under the theme \u201cHarnessing Technology for Health Equity: Bridging the Gaps, Empowering Communities,\u201d<\/em> the 2026 edition will highlight major advances in artificial intelligence, telemedicine, big data, medical robotics, and ethical governance in the field of health.<\/p>\n

Researchers, clinicians, engineers, public decision-makers, entrepreneurs, and institutional partners will gather to discuss technological solutions capable of reducing inequalities in access to healthcare and accelerating the transformation of health systems across the continent.<\/p>\n

A Space for Cooperation, Innovation, and Scientific Visibility<\/strong><\/p>\n

The program will feature plenary sessions, training workshops, parallel sessions, a technology exhibition, and networking spaces to foster synergies among public, private, and academic actors.<\/p>\n

Papers selected by the scientific committee will be published in Scopus-indexed volumes, ensuring international visibility.<\/p>\n

HealthTech 2026 thus positions itself as a Pan-African platform of excellence where science meets public policy to build the foundations of a digital, resilient, and sovereign Africa.<\/p>\n
