In memory of Mariane Ouattara, physician

Digital bridges
so that data
can save lives

An association founded so that no patient ever dies again from lack of access to their medical data — wherever they are in the world.

You must let go. You must believe in your project."

The origin

The wall we want to tear down

In 2019, Adama Ouattara's father was hospitalized in Abidjan for liver cancer. Adama, a bioinformatics researcher, tries to access his father's medical data to get a second opinion. He hits a wall. The data is inaccessible. The file is locked.

Five years later, Mariane — his sister, a physician — lives the same drama. Her breast cancer has mutated. The chemotherapy received in Ivory Coast was not adapted. The necessary tests had never been done. For lack of accessible data, for lack of a digital bridge between health systems.

Mariane passed away in 2025. Les Ponts de Mariane was born from that grief.

The digital bridge
that could have changed everything
What we build

Three bridges. One promise.

For Flora, for Mariane, for all those who wait.

01
Bridge between continents
Enable secure transfer of medical data between Europe and Africa. A patient record accessible in seconds, wherever the doctor is.
02
Bridge between researchers
Connect rare-disease databases across the world. What Flora has been waiting for since the age of six — an answer that can only come from collaboration.
03
Bridge between the patient and their data
Give each patient the right to access their data, to share it with a specialist of their choice, to obtain a second opinion in full autonomy.
Our commitments

What we
believe in

I
Data belongs to the patient
No medical data should be a prisoner of a system or a border. Data sovereignty is a fundamental right.
II
Access to care knows no geography
A patient in Abidjan deserves the same access to global medical expertise as a patient in Paris. Technology makes it possible. The will must follow.
III
Co-build, not impose
Solutions come from the communities they serve. The association works with caregivers, patients and institutions — not in their stead.
The link with Gencovery

The association,
guardian of the vision

Adama Ouattara, co-founder of Gencovery, transferred 30% of his personal shares to the association. Les Ponts de Mariane is the ethical and visionary guardian of Gencovery in the long term — beyond investors, beyond markets.

To support Gencovery is to support this mission. Every euro invested in Gencovery funds the tools that will make possible the world Mariane wished for.
