In a significant move to enhance healthcare delivery across Africa, Gatefield has announced the convening of the 2026 Health Summit, aptly themed 'Scaling What Works.' This summit will convene thought leaders, policymakers, and health innovators to dissect and address the myriad barriers that impede the expansion of proven health solutions across the continent.

The summit is poised to focus on critical issues such as policy frameworks, financing mechanisms, and institutional challenges that limit the implementation of effective health innovations. By bringing together stakeholders from various sectors, the summit seeks to foster collaboration and generate actionable insights that can facilitate the scaling of successful health initiatives.
