PSG Healthcare Startup Consortium - India's Unique Consortium

Extremely happy and proud to state that India's first Multispeciality Healthcare Start Up Consortium has been co-founded by me. This is the first time that an Institution is joining hands with Entrepreneurs to come out with Healthcare innovations that will change the lives of people.

It is unique in many ways:
1) First time a very big  and reputed Institute is joining hands with Private Entrepreneurs  to come up with an exclusive healthcare start up initiative
2) It will be both an incubation center and also a center of excellence
3) Projects will be funded by various Government Funding Agencies
4) Our products and those whom we help incubate will not be a For Profit Venture
5) Incubatees will be helped in commercializing their products again with the help of various Government funding agencies
6) Finally projects which have high social impact alone will be taken up

Some of the products which will be ready soon are:
1) Bloodless Glucose and Cholesterol measurement ( Yes no more needles and painful procedures) at fraction of the cost prevalent now.
