AI-driven drug repurposing is growing in the LAMEA region. It started in schools and with opportunistic projects, but now it's moving toward a structured innovation ecosystem supported by the growth of digital health, the maturation of biobanks, and government-backed biotech modernization. Latin America is seeing health AI projects as part of national AI programs. Africa and the Middle East, on the other hand, are using partnerships and collaborations with global biotech companies that are funded by donors. These changes show a shift from small, separate pilot studies to focused AI applications that deal with regional disease burdens and problems with data sovereignty.
Three important trends are shaping this evolution: putting more emphasis on diseases that are common in certain areas but often ignored, using federated and privacy-preserving AI models to get around data-sharing problems, and forming strategic international partnerships to share knowledge and technology. Competition is still new and not very strong. Local startups and research institutions are focusing on niche diseases, cost-effectiveness, ease of understanding, and following local rules. Companies are increasingly looking for hybrid service-licensing models and partnerships with global players to get ready for future consolidation and to become leaders in AI-enabled drug repurposing in their regions.

Country Outlook
Brazil is the leader for AI-driven drug repurposing in Latin America. This is because it has a strong life sciences ecosystem, good academic and research institutions, and a large and diverse patient population. The country's growing digital health infrastructure, government interest in biotechnology, and large amounts of clinical data from the public health system (SUS) make it easy for AI to be used. Key opportunities exist in tackling high-burden tropical and chronic diseases via cost-effective repurposing strategies, the utilization of generative AI, and localized validation. Brazil has the potential to be a regional leader in AI-enabled drug repurposing because it has a mature scientific community, strong industrial capabilities, and new partnerships. However, there are still challenges like data fragmentation, changing regulations, and uneven infrastructure.
