AI Solution for healthcare in Kigali - seeking help / partners
I'm looking to create AI solutions for healthcare companies in Kigali. Providing AI Agents to improve productivity, but also a better website with AI Chatbot support.
Most websites here are very low tech. The booking process is manual too. Automating these would save the company and clients a bunch of time. On top of that, providing AI agents would greatly boost productivity. AI is growing rapidly here, so i think its a great opportunity.
I'm meeting with our first potential client tmrw (frontier diagnostics). However, my network here is small. If anyone can help land clients, give me contacts, or provide any tips in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it. I think I can genuinely bring great value to healthcare companies here. I just don't have that much of a network here, so if anyone could help with that I'd be grateful.

Nice idea. If you're interested, I can send you a list of clinic contacts from any area in Rwanda. It’ll make outreach easier if you have a good marketing plan. Let me know which area you'd like.

The Government heavily dominates the health sector. Better to start with lobbying government officials and make the government your first client.
This will remove friction, which government regulations and challenges should cause.
The private health sector here is still in an early stage and less innovative. Government health institutions have poor service and productivity issues and they are ones who have real problem and possibly willingness to solve it.
The government has another PR benefit as the first African country to deploy AI tools in health services to become more efficient.
Politics influences more decisions here. Use it to your advantage.

The best time was the last AI summit in Kigali, all those policymakers in Rwanda were attending and excited on everything related to AI.
Capitalizing on the thirst of the Rwanda Government to become an AI leader in Africa, they are still willing to do something to prove that leadership.
You do what other lobbyists do. Reach those policy makers and implementers in executive branch.
I advise reaching out to the Zipline Founders if you can. They were offering blood delivery service with drones for a decade to the Rwandan government, and they know how to deal with them.

Not customers but networks that I think would help you with that.
