About

I design and implement large-scale, technology-centric solutions to improve the health and well-being of women and children in India. The projects focus on simple solutions that are known to work but have failed to scale. In the last ten years, I have completed three projects, all using the same model. Each one directly impacted millions of people. At Inditech, we use the same proven model to transform some critical and essential aspects of pediatric healthcare in India. We aim to improve primary care outcomes for children across India. Inditech enhances pediatric primary care capacities through academy-led education, and tools that enable early detection and intervention. Inditech operates the digital education and services arm of the Indian Academy of Pediatrics and the South Asia Pediatrics Association. The education covers hundreds of topics used by tens of thousands of doctors. Inditech is now focused on creating new education formats for doctors and medical students that will significantly enhance comprehension and retention; and bridge the gap between academics and practice. In addition, we are now preparing to deploy our tested tools for practice enhancement. Inditech has over 60 leading MNC and Indian brand customers. My co-founders are highly qualified and acclaimed professionals, and we partner with leading national institutions and subject matter experts for our solutions. My public health career started in 2012. Before that, I managed technology companies in India and China. Leading VCs and corporate VCs (Fortune-100) funded these companies - Norwest Venture Partners, Nexus Venture Partners, Siemens Mobile Acceleration, SoftBank China Venture Capital, ICICI Ventures, and eVentures. Three exits - EVentures, The Walt Disney Company, and Altruist Corp. I am keenly interested in adult nutrition, metabolic disease, upcoming technologies, and machine intelligence. I have been a speaker at tens of events worldwide and at management schools, including INSEAD and IESE. Some of my work became case studies taught in management schools - Stanford University and NUS (2004) and IESE Business School, Barcelona (2013 & 2022-23) I am a self-trained nutritionist and fitness enthusiast.
