« It was a great opportunity to meet many foreign delegations as well as some fine French medtech companies.
An unconditional support from French Healthcare Association for this ecosystem, with whom we had the honour of preparing our speech.
This is a first for the "Alliance des Experts Medtech", and marks the start of a great collaboration. We are delighted to be part of this adventure alongside our partners ICOSA, MDxp, IODA Consulting, Audit & RiskSolutions, MD101 Consulting and AXEME CONSEIL. »
Mathieu Charleux
Associate Director
« In order to support equitable access to care, all players in the healthcare ecosystem need to work together to focus on removing barriers and fostering more collaboration and innovation. Here at the French Healthcare Business Forum, it's clear that there are many exciting projects and developments underway to support better and fairer public health. I was delighted to be part of the discussion and to share with government and industry stakeholders the work being done by UPS Healthcare, the UPS Foundation and our technology partner Promedeo to provide a digitised, temperature-compliant supply chain managed at last-mile vaccination points across Cameroon. I am delighted to have met with a number of healthcare delegates from Africa and the Middle East to discuss how UPS Healthcare and our smart logistics network can further support global access to key healthcare services and supplies. »
