Egypt becomes regional hub for health investment, innovation


Egypt’s Minister of Health and Population, Khaled Abdel Ghaffar, said on Monday that Egypt has become a regional hub for health investment and innovation, highlighting the country’s comprehensive healthcare reforms and expanding public–private partnerships.

Speaking during the session “National and Global Healthcare: Policy and Investment” at the Global Health Exhibition 2025 in Riyadh –attended by Saudi Health Minister Fahd Al-Jalajel– Abdel Ghaffar said that effective health policies form the foundation of resilient, equitable, and sustainable systems.

He noted that every dollar invested in healthcare yields up to fourfold returns in economic and social benefits, adding that Egypt’s experience demonstrates how strategic reforms, sound governance, and partnerships can drive integrated health transformation and economic growth.
