Cairo, Egypt – MSD Egypt, an affiliate of the global pharmaceutical leader, is partnering with Vezeeta, Middle East and Africa’s leading digital healthcare platform to conduct digital awareness and engagement among patients and healthcare providers, alike.
The collaboration primarily focuses on increasing public health awareness by providing MSD’s authentic medical information and scientific updates to doctors on Vezeeta’s platform via its digital channels in Egypt. The partnership allows healthcare providers to access the digital awareness campaigns through the Stream on the dedicated Vezeeta Doctors’ app, while Vezeeta’s patients can access latest, live information via their social media channels.
“I believe that our partnership with MSD Egypt will deliver a truly unique value-driven solution that has the potential to improve healthcare across the nation at scale. By using accurate and authentic data to drive public health awareness, we can ensure the very best of medical care for our communities. As digital healthcare leaders, and trusted partners in the region, we’re proud to join forces with like-minded pioneers who have made incredible strides in healthcare and continue to tap into the power of technology to improve the lives and wellbeing of our people,” said Amir Barsoum, Founder and CEO of Vezeeta.

At Vezeeta, we remain committed to empowering patients and doctors with knowledge and data to ensure the well-being of our community, and this partnership furthers our mission to do so,” said Ola Aly El Din, Business Development Director of Vezeeta.
This collaboration fully aligns with MSD Egypt’s mission to build and promote a Medical Education Development program for healthcare professionals in the country, through innovative and active digital activities that contribute to raising public health awareness in the society. As leaders in biopharmaceutical innovation, MSD continually embraces new-age solutions that expand accessibility of medical services and information, particularly in light of the Covid-19 pandemic that has triggered the need to reinvent MSD’s means of reaching patients and doctors, in a safer and faster manner. The live Stream on Vezeeta’s Doctors’ app will provide MSD’s targeted content to over 16,000 doctors, enabling efficient disease management through the platform.

For this reason, MSD Egypt is glad to enter the collaboration with Vezeeta, because furthering digital transformation and reimagining our ways of working, are key pillars in MSD’s strategy to fortify our future,” said Dr. Ramy Koussa, Managing Director of MSD Egypt Cluster.
