Analyst Opinion

The Digital Health market in Cameroon is rapidly evolving, driven by a growing demand for convenient and accessible healthcare services.

Customer preferences:
Cameroonian consumers are increasingly turning to digital health solutions for their convenience and efficiency. The younger population, in particular, is more inclined towards digital fitness and well-being apps to track their health and fitness goals. Online doctor consultations are gaining popularity among busy urban professionals who seek quick medical advice without the need to visit a physical clinic. Moreover, digital treatment and care services are becoming more appealing to patients with chronic conditions who require continuous monitoring and management.

Trends in the market:
In Cameroon, the Digital Health market is witnessing a surge in the adoption of mobile health apps and telemedicine platforms. These technologies are bridging the gap between patients and healthcare providers, especially in remote areas where access to traditional healthcare facilities is limited. The digital fitness and well-being segment is experiencing a boom as more Cameroonians prioritize their health and wellness. Online doctor consultation services are also on the rise, offering a convenient alternative to in-person visits. Additionally, digital treatment and care solutions are gaining traction as healthcare providers leverage technology to deliver personalized and effective care to patients.

Local special circumstances:
Cameroon's healthcare system faces challenges such as inadequate infrastructure, shortage of healthcare professionals, and unequal distribution of medical resources. In such a context, digital health technologies offer a promising solution to improve healthcare access and delivery across the country. The government's efforts to promote telemedicine and e-health initiatives are further driving the growth of the Digital Health market in Cameroon. Moreover, partnerships between technology companies and healthcare providers are enhancing the quality of digital health services available to the Cameroonian population.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The increasing penetration of smartphones and internet connectivity in Cameroon is a key driver of the Digital Health market's expansion. As more people gain access to mobile devices and reliable internet services, the demand for digital health solutions is expected to grow. Economic factors such as rising disposable incomes and urbanization are also fueling the adoption of digital health technologies in the country. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the shift towards telehealth and remote healthcare services, prompting both consumers and healthcare providers to embrace digital solutions for their healthcare needs.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on revenues and user data of relevant mobile applications and consumer electronics companies.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, and survey results from primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, population, internet penetration, smartphone penetration, consumer spending, and healthcare spending. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.
