Founder Speaks-

"The scope of growth and innovation is vast for the telemedicine sector in India. It is expected to grow to $5 billion by 2023, compared to the current market worth about $2 billion, while the Integrated Passive Devices (IPD) market is already a humongous $45 Billion. The growth will also come in the form of wider application of technology, artificial intelligence, machine learning, wearables, blockchain, and more. The healthtech sector will play a crucial role in evolving and progressing the Indian healthcare ecosystem by leveraging innovative thinking, technology, and AI. It will continue to provide the necessary support and drive to make healthcare inclusive and accessible for all. As witnessed during the pandemic, healthtech firms will further act as an extended arm of the public and private healthcare system by helping to bridge the urban-rural healthcare divide and the primary, secondary, and tertiary care gap."
