GE Healthcare & Standard Bank: Improving Accessibility To Solve Healthcare Challenges In Africa
Leaders discuss healthcare challenges and solutions at the U.S. Africa Business Forum in Washington, D.C.
Standard Bank and GE Healthcare have committed to expanding their collaboration, driven by a shared vision and purpose, and will work together to make new financing of up to $80 million available for GE equipment to Standard Bank customers across the continent over the next five years, with a focus in South Africa, Nigeria, Kenya, Mozambique, and Angola. The collaboration is already drastically improving accessibility to healthcare in South Africa, disbursing $37.4 million worth of specialized radiology equipment to date. GE Healthcare and Standard Bank will make cutting-edge equipment and solutions available to communities that might otherwise not have access.
