-Agreement supports responsible use of emerging technology as pharmacy practice and services continue to evolve digitally
The Pharmacy Council of Nigeria (PCN) and Sproxil have signed a Memorandum of Collaboration focused on agentic AI systems for pharmacists and e-pharmacies in Nigeria.
The agreement was formalised on 29 September 2026 in Kigali, Rwanda, during the Investing in Innovation Africa (i3) Access to Markets event, held alongside the Africa HealthTech Summit.
The collaboration comes at a time when Nigeria is strengthening the framework for electronic pharmacy practice. The Electronic Pharmacy Regulations 2026 establish national requirements for digital pharmacy operations and reinforce the importance of professional standards, patient safety, data protection and consumer trust.
Keeping pharmacists at the centre of digital progress
The Sproxil-PCN collaboration will focus on the responsible application of agentic AI for pharmacists and e-pharmacies. The approach recognises that emerging technology in pharmacy must complement professional judgement and operate within the regulatory framework governing pharmacy practice in Nigeria.
PCN retains its statutory regulatory authority. Sproxil brings experience in real-world data, digital systems and practical AI designed for high-impact environments.
Building trust as pharmacy becomes more digital
For Sproxil, the partnership builds on a long-standing focus on trust in healthcare and the use of technology to turn real-world interactions into useful intelligence. As pharmacy services evolve, that same principle remains central: technology should strengthen trust and support better-informed action.
The signing marks the beginning of the collaboration. Further information will be shared as jointly approved initiatives under the partnership progress.
