2070 Health, India’s first healthcare focused venture studio, has announced the strategic appointment of Gaurav Porwal as Chief Operating Officer and Operating Partner. In this senior leadership role, Porwal will lead portfolio management and work closely with the founders and operating teams of 2070 Health to drive growth and success of 2070 Health’s portfolio companies.

Porwal brings two decades of founder and senior leadership experience in the Indian startup ecosystem and has a proven track record of building and scaling businesses, including his successful exit from Sparsh NephroCare, which was acquired by Fresenius Medical Care in 2016.

His experience spans multiple consumer and healthcare ventures, including Ola Cabs (COO - Global Mobility) and Tata Digital (SVP – Service Commerce) where he built businesses across healthcare, food delivery and mobility for Tata Group's super-app, Tata Neu.

2070 Health plans to launch 8-10 startups over the next 3-4 years and will also expand operations outside India over the coming years. With Porwal's appointment, 2070 Health reinforces its commitment to building a robust ecosystem of healthcare startups. As the studio expands its operations and launches new startups, Porwal's strategic guidance will be instrumental in shaping the future of healthcare and realising the studio's bold vision.
