Founder Speaks-

"The onset of pandemic has brought the healthcare in general and diagnostic sector in particular, into sharp focus. Three major trends that will drive the growth of diagnostics in India from our perspective can be summarized as 3D – Digital, Distributed and Doorstep delivery. Rapid advances in genetics, machine learning, robotics, materials and bio-engineering coupled with all-time high interest in investments from both government and private sector in healthcare signal a bright future for diagnostics in India."
