Company Overview
MariTest is a pre-seed health-tech startup headquartered in Kampala, Uganda, that is developing a non-invasive, AI-powered diagnostic device for malaria. Founded by Hakim Kakooza and Stanley Kinyajui, the company was inspired by Kakooza's near-fatal experience with malaria in 2021. The handheld device aims to provide a diagnosis in under two minutes by detecting hemozoin, a byproduct of the malaria parasite, using magnetic and optical sensors, thus eliminating the need for blood samples. In addition to the diagnostic tool, MariTest is also building a Malaria Intelligence Center for real-time disease surveillance and outbreak prediction. The company is currently in the prototype stage and preparing for clinical trials.
