Connecting certified African datasets to global discovery.
The BioVana Index

A secure, federated network that makes African biobank data discoverable to global research—without moving samples or compromising sovereignty.

Why the BioVana Index?

The BioVana Index is our signature data infrastructure layer. It connects harmonized, ethically certified African health datasets with researchers, pharma sponsors, and CROs around the world.

Built for discovery, clinical trials, and precision medicine, the Index enables vetted, audit-ready collaborations—without compromising sovereignty, compliance, or local ownership.

One Index. Many Possibilities.

The Index creates value for every stakeholder—from biobanks seeking visibility to researchers needing diverse cohorts.

Designed for African institutions. Built for global science.

The Index is open to African biobanks, hospital registries, and research networks that meet BioVana’s certification and harmonization standards.

Whether you’re a national cancer registry, a rare disease biobank, or a teaching hospital with deep patient records—we help you become Index-ready.

How It Works

Getting your biobank Index-ready is a three-step process—guided by BioVana every step of the way.

01

Certify

We assess your data structure, governance, and sample workflows, and guide you to ISO 20387-aligned certification.
02

Harmonize

We transform your records into clean, structured, and standardized datasets using global best practices (MIABIS, OMOP, FAIR).
03

Connect

You’re added to the BioVana Index—with full control. You decide when, how, and with whom to collaborate.

Built on Trust. Operated with Oversight.

Data sovereignty and ethical governance aren’t add-ons—they’re foundational to how the Index operates.
