Public health partner Wits RHI is a large research institute within the University of the Witwatersrand, focused on Africa’s health challenges with a multidisciplinary approach. This presents opportunities for collaboration on epidemiological studies, implementation research, and evidence translation into policy across HIV, SRH, and vaccine-preventable diseases.

Regional reach Active across all nine South African provinces with a Hillbrow-based HQ, enabling widespread field operations and access to diverse populations. Potential for countrywide programs, multi-site clinical trials, and large-scale implementation projects.

Funding & partnerships Strong track record of collaboration with global funders, CHAI, CIFF, and philanthropic groups, plus partnerships with Sight and Life Foundation and Hold My Hand. This indicates readiness for co-funded studies, grant-backed initiatives, and contract research opportunities.

Clinical trial leadership Recent and ongoing leadership in clinical trials such as MMS SA 2025, with international partners. Opportunities to pursue expansion of late-stage trials, vaccine and PrEP-related studies, and real-world evidence generation for scalable health interventions.

Tech-enabled research Adopts diverse technology stacks (analytics, digital engagement, advertising, payments, and data platforms) that can support data management, participant engagement, digital consent, and monitoring. This aligns with selling integrated tech-enabled research solutions and capacity-building offerings.
