mPharma Names Kwesi Arhin as New CEO, Marking First Non-Founder Leadership
- Kwesi Arhin has been appointed as the new CEO of mPharma, effective September 1, 2025.
- Arhin is the first non-founder CEO in mPharma's history, succeeding co-founder Gregory Rockson.
- Since its founding in 2013, mPharma has expanded across nine African markets.
The appointment of Kwesi Arhin as CEO could be a strategic move for mPharma, as it seeks to navigate the complexities of the healthtech landscape in Africa. However, the challenges posed by economic headwinds and the need for sustainable growth will require careful management and innovative strategies. The transition from a founder-led model to a more institutional governance structure may also impact company culture and operational dynamics.
