We work across the health and development ecosystem.
Platinum26 supports governments, donors, NGOs, private healthcare organisations, and multi-stakeholder platforms - often within the same assignment. Our strength is the ability to work effectively across all of them.
Client Type 1
Governments and Ministries of Health
We support national, provincial, and sub-national health authorities with strategic planning, policy development, technical guidance, systems strengthening, and programme implementation support. We understand how government health systems actually function — the governance structures, the budget cycles, the consultation requirements, and the political dynamics that determine what is possible.
We do not arrive with foreign frameworks and assume they will translate. We engage with the specific institutional reality of each client — and we produce work that reflects it.
Clients include: Kenya Ministry of Health · Cameroon Ministry of Health · Gauteng Department of Health · Helen Joseph Hospital
Client Type 2
Private Healthcare and Health-Adjacent Partners
Private healthcare companies, hospital groups, diagnostic firms, pharmaceutical companies, and health-adjacent investors are increasingly important actors in African health systems. We understand their interests, their constraints, and the opportunity that exists at the intersection of commercial purpose and public health impact.
We have developed a model - where a private sector company with a commercial interest in better health policy funds technically credible, independent advisory work - is one we have executed successfully and can replicate across the diagnostics, pharma, hospital development, and managed care sectors.
Client Type 3
Funders and Development Partners
We support donor or investment - funded and partner-led assignments that require independent technical insight, strong process management, credible synthesis, and recommendations that are both technically sound and operationally realistic. We understand the accountability and reporting requirements that donors expect - and we deliver to those standards without losing sight of what works in practice.
With the contraction of US-based global health funding in 2025, we are actively deepening our engagement with European, Gulf, and multilateral donors - bringing the same quality of work to a diversifying funding landscape.
Client Type 4
NGOs and Implementing Organisations
Implementing organisations need more than strategic advice. They need support that strengthens their systems, sharpens their programme design, and helps them navigate complex stakeholder environments while continuing to deliver. We work with NGOs and implementers to improve strategy, tighten operational systems, develop technical tools, and build the internal capacity that sustains performance.
Clients include: mothers2mothers · Aurum Institute
Client Type 5
Technical Consortia and Multi-Stakeholder Platforms
Some of the most consequential health and development work happens in multi-actor environments where different institutions must align around shared goals. We support consortia, technical platforms, and multi-stakeholder initiatives with facilitation, process design, coordination support, and the kind of structured technical synthesis that helps different actors move forward together - even when they start from very different positions.
Client Type 6
Small and Medium Healthcare Enterprises
We support clinics, practices, pharmacies, allied health businesses, diagnostic providers, health startups, and healthcare entrepreneurs that need practical management support. These organisations often have strong technical or clinical foundations but need stronger systems for operations, patient flow, revenue discipline, governance, quality, staffing, growth, and sustainability.
