HealthCap Africa Calls for Pension Fund Investment in Healthcare

HealthCap Africa organized a Private Markets & Healthcare Roundtable in Lagos, urging pension funds to finance healthcare amidst declining international donor funding from USAID and other programs. The event, themed "Healthcare as an Asset Class," included pension fund representatives managing over $5 billion in assets.

Dr. Ola Brown, Founder and General Partner of HealthCap Africa, referenced Quadria Capital's healthcare investment success in India, noting its AUM of over $4 billion and a significant reduction in maternal mortality rates. Dr. Mories Atoki, CEO of ABC Health, stressed the importance of matching investors with projects, advocating for more early-stage investment to foster growth in the healthcare sector.
