Angola Capital Investments (ACI), an international investment firm headquartered in Angola, has invested an undisclosed amount in Sphera Bluoshen, a subsidiary of Oshen Group and part of Sphera Global Health Care.

The funds will be used to support the development of the healthcare technology.

ACI is a major shareholder in Sphera Bluoshen S.A.

Sphera Global Health Care is a medical company that specializes in medical services and brings together carefully selected high-level hospitals, clinics, doctors and technologies.

The objective is to democratize healthcare services so that people in Angola, and all over the world, have access to quality healthcare.

Zandre Campos, Chairman and CEO of ACI, said that technology advancements have become a very important aspect of the African healthcare system.

"When a patient has access to technology they are more informed, which enables them to make better decisions and demand better treatment. It also enables patients’ access to international medicine, no matter where they are located," he said.

Sphera Global Health Care differs from other healthcare companies because of its focus on communication technologies.

As patients demand more, including the best professionals and the most thorough information, Sphera Global Health Care is developing communication technologies to meet those demands.

Technologies already developed include video conferencing, telemedicine, virtual platforms, apps, and mobile-health.

Besides improving communication, the technologies also guarantee the delivery of quality healthcare and reduce unnecessary hospital or clinical visits.

For example, mHealth is a mobile app that provides consultation for pediatric and general medicine.

It stimulates engagement, maximizes preventive disease discussions, increases efficiency and reduces the cost of care when the number of unnecessary visits is reduced.

In Angola, Sphera Global Health Care's healthcare technology can also be found in the International Medical Center (IMC).

Located in Luanda, the IMC is an outpatient center that aims to provide the highest level of care, offering an on-site laboratory and international medical services.
