ADB Ghana Medical Systems Group Limited, a healthcare solutions company based in Ghana, is spearheading the engineering and infrastructure aspects of the $100 million Otumfuo Osei Tutu II Comprehensive Cancer Centre of Excellence in the Ashanti Region.

The five-year project, estimated at $100 million, is set to begin with a $10 million investment in the first phase.
