Senegal’s Eyone Medical Raises USD 3 M To Digitise West Africa’s Health Records

Dakar-based healthtech startup Eyone Medical has raised USD 3 M from Oyass Capital, a new Senegalese government-backed private equity fund focused on scaling high-impact SMEs. The deal was announced at Oyass’s launch event, marking one of its first investments.

Founded in 2015 by Henri Ousmane Gueye and John Diatta, Eyone provides interoperable digital health systems, including its flagship Shared Patient Record platform, which enables clinics and hospitals to securely share and manage patient data.

The platform is used in over 60 healthcare institutions across Senegal, Mali, Côte d’Ivoire, Cameroon, Gabon, and France.

The new funding will help Eyone, which previously raised USD 1 M and secured another USD 300 K in prize money, integrate AI into its systems, enhance infrastructure, and expand across Francophone West Africa, where fragmented health records and inefficiencies remain major challenges.

The deal also reflects a growing trend of public-private co-investment in strategic sectors like healthtech, with governments like Senegal’s taking a more active role in startup funding.
