Health Meets Tech Hackathon 2019

Every day, approximately 830 women die from preventable causes related to pregnancy and childbirth. 99% of all maternal deaths occur in developing countries. Nigeria contributes about 10% of global burden of maternal deaths.
Most maternal deaths are preventable, as the health-care solutions to prevent or manage complications are well known. All women need access to antenatal care in pregnancy, skilled care during childbirth, and care and support in the weeks after childbirth.

The EpiAFRIC Health Meets Tech (HMT) Platform is committed to forging partnerships and growing a community of Health professionals and Tech experts who are keen on applying technology in African healthcare industry. Through our Hackathons and Bi Annual Meetups, The HMT platform has seen the emergence of collaborations and connections between health practitioners and the tech gurus which has given rise to a vibrant “home-made” Health-Tech Community.
