New Data Platform Launched to Boost Africa’s Health Manufacturing
A new platform to strengthen Africa’s health manufacturing capacity has been launched in Accra, Ghana, by the African Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC). Known as the African Manufacturing Market Intelligence & Network Analysis (AMMINA), it was unveiled at the African Healthcare Manufacturing Trade Exhibition and Conference (AHMTEC), highlighting Africa CDC’s commitment to regional innovation, industrial growth and health sovereignty.
AMMINA is a data-driven platform that offers detailed insights into Africa’s health products manufacturing ecosystem. Developed from an initial curation by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and now managed by the Africa CDC, it provides comprehensive information on manufacturers, product portfolios, capacities and market trends. The platform is a strategic tool for African Union Member States, investors, and partners to make informed decisions that support policy, investment, and collaboration.
Currently covering over 700 manufacturers and 2,500 health products across 18 AU Member States, AMMINA is expanding to all 55 countries. By making reliable data a continental public good, Africa CDC is aiming to unlock Africa’s manufacturing potential, boost intra-African trade and secure the continent’s health future.
