Our CEO, Dr Yaseen Khan, will be speaking at the Africa Tech Festival 2025 on the Opening Panel, From Code to Care: AI’s promise for Africa’s health.
EMGuidance has been on its AI journey quietly and quite intentionally. Working at the cold face of clinical decision-making has shaped how we think about technology. A clinical search happens on EMGuidance every 1.5 seconds. Each one reflects a healthcare professional trying to make the right call for a real patient. The responsibility in that moment is enormous, and it’s something we take seriously.
That perspective influences how we approach AI. The value sits in context, trust, and usability. Any technology we introduce needs to support clinical reasoning. It needs to feel steady and reliable at the exact moment a decision is made.
During the panel, Yaseen will share how EMGuidance is actively evolving its AI capabilities to strengthen clinical decision-making. This work is already underway, with development and testing focused on accuracy, safety, compliance, and fit within everyday clinical workflows.
Because EMGuidance already sits at the centre of local clinical data, we are not only applying AI inside our own platform. We are also putting in place the data and AI infrastructure that other systems can use to deliver safe, context-aware AI in South Africa. So the work is twofold: strengthening clinical decision-making on EMGuidance, and enabling third-party platforms to do the same responsibly. It’s about supporting physician autonomy across the whole ecosystem, not just within our walls.
If you are attending, we would love for you to join the discussion.
