What is the DFS Africa Deal room?

The DFS Africa Deal Room is a business-to-business and business-to-investor event that provides networking and investor-business matchmaking opportunities.

The Deal Room fast tracks the deal-making process as both investors and businesses can meet partners to work within the space of a day or two thereby significantly increasing their chance of closing a deal.

At a Deal Room event, networking goes beyond just exchanging cards and even beyond ‘escalator pitches’. This is because everyone shortlisted for the deal room event is attending specific meetings with businesses and people, they want to meet having read through their business proposal and for the businesses knowing which investors they will be meeting before they leave their homes or offices.

The Connecting the Dots Initiative (CDI), is a demand and aggregation platform for essential medicines and healthcare devices across Africa.

CDI is a novel initiative because it is an all in one platform that aggregates demand and supply of essential healthcare products.

At the heart of the CDI platform, is product verification against global standards and enforcement of such standards. The platform enhances the logistics process and integrates blended finance mechanisms needed to support procurement.

Through CDI, Africa has a platform that integrates local and international suppliers of Essential Medicines and healthcare products with regulatory bodies, logistics partners, and financial institutions to increase access to these essential products.
