Can you elaborate more on your educational and professional background and how has that helped you to chalk out innovative business strategies for TimesMed?
I have completed MBA in Systems and Post-Graduation in Computer Application. As a global Head of an Atlanta Based Company, I played an instrumental role in establishing BFSI Vertical and had the privilege of partnering with companies like Oracle, Sun, Infosys and TCS and implemented BFSI solution in Many Tier 1 and Tier 2 Companies and Banks all over the world. Prior to joining the Atlanta based company, I was a Regional Head at Chennai for aJapanese based pharmaceutical company that was operating in the life science vertical.
I conceptualized TimesMed in 2017 through which we helped the
Government of Tamil Nadu and many big medical universities and individual doctors across the country to video consult through TimesMed App for Queries and second and subsequent reviews. TimesMed has completed over 2,00,000 video consultations so far that is by far a huge milestone in the country. Apart from this, I am also associated with 3 startups that are currently valued from 1B USD to 3b USD and I believe that TimesMed will be a unicorn in its vertical.
