Alaran, who previously worked with major pharmaceutical firms like GSK and Pfizer, recognised the urgent need for improved healthcare data in Sub-Saharan Africa.

“Being backed by reputable venture capital investors validates the vital need to close the gap of inadequate real-world healthcare big data,” he stated, emphasising the importance of this funding for future growth.

Commitment to inclusivity

PBR Life Sciences focuses on people, not just numbers. The company seeks to involve underrepresented patient populations in clinical trials, ensuring that healthcare solutions take diverse perspectives into account.

This commitment to inclusivity is vital for addressing the unique health challenges of diverse communities across the continent.

The funding round attracted notable investors such as Launch Africa, Microtraction, and Octerra Capital, who expressed confidence in PBR’s potential. 

“PBR is set to be a key player in transforming healthcare delivery across the continent,” remarked Uwem Uwemakpan from Launch Africa. 

Similarly, Ashim Egunjobi of Octerra Capital highlighted PBR’s innovative technology: “We believe in PBR’s tremendous potential to reshape access to health data across Africa.”

PBR Life Sciences exemplifies the innovation trend in Africa’s healthcare sector. With new capital, the company aims to transform healthcare using big data and AI, focusing on profitability and impact in emerging markets while ensuring every voice is heard.
