2020

A Libyan doctor-turned-tech-CEO living abroad, helped develop a telehealth platform so doctors who had left their countries could treat patients back home. In 2020, the application Speetar was launched to support Libya’s fight against COVID-19. It signed an agreement with the Libyan Ministry of Health to become the main intermediary dealing with the Coronavirus. The app was downloaded more than 5,000 times in its first three weeks and was projected to reach about 2.3 million people.
