Africa’s rapidly evolving healthcare economy will come under the spotlight as healthcare executives, entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers and innovators converge in Lagos for the Healthcare Leadership and Entrepreneurship Management Program (H-LEMP) Africa Conference 2026. The conference will take place on October 29, 2026, at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island, Lagos, with a Pre-Conference Masterclass Workshop scheduled for October 28 at the same venue.
Organised by Harley & Wall Business & Healthcare Consulting International, H-LEMP Africa is designed to create a high-level platform where healthcare and business leaders can explore the opportunities and challenges shaping the next generation of African healthcare.
Beyond clinical practice, the conference will examine healthcare as an ecosystem of institutions, businesses, technologies, investment opportunities and human capital. Participants will engage with experts on issues including healthcare entrepreneurship, financing, investment, digital health, artificial intelligence, operational efficiency, institutional growth and sustainable healthcare business models.
Hospitals, health technology companies, laboratories, pharmacies, health insurance organisations and other healthcare businesses increasingly need leaders who understand both healthcare delivery and the fundamentals of strategy, finance, innovation and organisational growth. H-LEMP Africa therefore aims to create opportunities for stakeholders to move beyond conversation and towards collaboration, partnerships and practical solutions.
The conference will feature keynote sessions, fireside conversations, expert panels, masterclasses, practical workshops, industry exhibitions and structured networking. Participants will also have opportunities to connect with healthcare businesses, investors, technology providers and potential strategic partners.
Supported by leading organizations like Providus Unity Bank, St. Ives Hospital, MIVA University, Coinage Capital, Leadway, Lifeworth HMO, Access EMR, Loveworld Medical Center, Manifold Leadership, Nigeria Medical Association (NMA), Association of Nigerian Private Medical Practitioners (ANPMP), DNA Harley and Rainbow Laboratories, D’BusinessDoctor Mentorship Academy, D’BusinessDoctor Consulting amongst others; H-LEMP Africa will bring together a diverse audience including healthcare executives, hospital owners, investors, entrepreneurs, consultants, policymakers, development partners, academics and healthcare professionals.
The event’s strategic pillars: “Leadership and Governance Excellence”, “Entrepreneurship Development”, “Management Capacity” and “Innovative Sustainable Impact”, reflect its broader ambition to develop healthcare leaders capable of building organisations that are innovative, financially sustainable and socially impactful.
With healthcare transformation increasingly dependent on the intersection of medicine, capital, technology, entrepreneurship and leadership, H-LEMP Africa 2026 aims to position Lagos as a meeting point for the people and ideas shaping Africa’s healthcare future. According to the Convener, Dr Ademolu Oyewole, “this continental conference is set to explore the business, investment and innovation opportunities shaping Africa’s healthcare future”.
