Since the beginning of our relationship with Vezeeta, we shared a common vision of improving healthcare access and efficiency in our region through health-tech innovation. We are very proud of the progress that Amir Barsoum and the Vezeeta team have achieved, by continuously reinventing the future of healthcare and achieving profitability in 2022. With over 10 million patients across 80 cities, Vezeeta today is firmly positioned as the largest health-tech platform in the Middle East and Africa. Egypt remains a key market for us and we recently opened our regional offices in Cairo with the aim of continuing to back successful growth stories similar to Vezeeta.
