JOHANNESBURG, Nov. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Technology is transforming industries on a global scale, with the COVID-19 pandemic presenting an interesting opportunity for medical practitioners and policy-makers to test new ways in which technology ? like Telemedicine, AI, Big Data, Analytics, Cloud Computing and Mobility ? can facilitate sustainable healthcare systems of the future.

An example of this is Zipline, an on-demand drone-delivery company that uses aviation technology to distribute medical supplies to healthcare workers in Africa and all over the world. The US based company is currently valued at $1.2 Billion and is slated by Fast Company as one of the most innovative companies of 2020.

Zipline says that it is on a mission to provide every human on Earth with instant access to vital medical supplies ? and it will do this by combining healthcare expertise with cutting-edge technology. With their Rwandan blood drive being an excellent case study of such mission.

Daniel Marfo, GM of Zipline International, is expected to unpack Zipline's Customer-Centered and Tech-Enabled approach at this year's Healthcare Innovation Summit Africa ? taking place virtually on 2 to 3 December 2020.
