Data Solutions to Serve Health Workers
What We Do
A Repeatable Approach to Scale
Nexleaf scales health & data technologies across Africa & Asia.
Visualizing Nexleaf’s Path to Scale
Most technology innovations for healthcare in lower-resource countries get stuck at the pilot phase. Nexleaf overcame this pitfall by turning valuable lessons from our earliest successes into our repeatable approach: partner and co-design with countries, then implement together with health workers.

The Problem
Billions of dollars are spent on medical equipment, but not on maintenance.
In low-income countries, health workers don’t have access to the information and resources they need to maintain, repair, and replace costly medical equipment.
As a result, patients die next to broken ventilators. Children receive temperature-damaged vaccines that might not protect them. Babies in the NICU are doubled and tripled up in incubators.
And when the power goes out, everything stops.
Health workers need better tools and resources.

How We Work
Smart Equipment + Data
We bring 15+ years of experience developing sensor-based technologies together with end users to address health priorities worldwide.
We’ve learned how to get data flowing from anywhere and empower the humans in the loop to take action.
Local Ownership + Control
To achieve lasting and resilient solutions, countries must be in the driver’s seat. We advocate for data rights and local ownership of both the technology and the software to ensure countries can implement and sustain the responsive data systems they need.
