The Urgent Need for Healthcare Innovation in India: Beyond Apps and AI Imagine this: Your elderly mother needs urgent medical care. You've used the latest health-tech app to book an appointment, feeling relieved that technology has made healthcare more accessible. But upon arriving at the hospital, you're confronted with a harsh reality: - A 3-hour wait despite your "confirmed" appointment - No real-time updates on when you'll see a doctor - Confusion about available treatments and their costs - A billing process so complex it feels designed to confuse Sound familiar? This scenario plays out daily across India, highlighting a critical disconnect between the promise of healthcare innovation and the ground reality. The Innovation Mirage We've seen an explosion of health-tech startups in India over the past decade. Telemedicine, AI diagnostics, wearable devices – the list goes on. Investors have poured billions into these ventures, all promising to revolutionize healthcare. But let's ask ourselves: Has the fundamental patient experience in hospitals really changed? The hard truth is that while we've created islands of innovation, we've failed to address the ocean of inefficiency that is our healthcare system. Where We're Falling Short 1. Fragmented Solutions: We have apps for booking appointments, separate systems for medical records, and disconnected billing processes. What we lack is integration. 2. Surface-Level Innovation: Many startups focus on customer acquisition rather than solving core operational issues in hospitals. 3. Ignoring the Basics: In our race to implement AI and blockchain, we've neglected fundamental issues like queue management and clear communication. 4. Tech Without Context: Solutions are often developed without a deep understanding of hospital workflows and patient needs. The Path Forward 1. Collaborative Innovation: Startups must work directly with providers to understand pain points. Developers should shadow nurses and doctors. 2. Regulatory Support: We need policies that incentivize hospitals to adopt integrated technologies. Tax breaks for tech upgrades could be a start. 3. Patient-Centric Metrics: Hospitals should be rated not just on medical outcomes, but on patient experience scores. 4. Investment Recalibration: VCs should prioritize startups solving core hospital operations issues, not just consumer-facing apps. 5. Medical Education Overhaul Future doctors and nurses need training in health informatics and patient experience design. The true measure of our success will not be in the number of apps we create, but in the smiles of relief on patients' faces as they navigate a healthcare system that finally works for them. #HealthcareRevolution #PatientFirst #InnovationThatMatters #IndianHealthcare

Central bank digital currencies (CBDC) come with significant benefits like reduced settlement risks and increased financial inclusion. However, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) deputy governor Michael Debabrata Patra warns that CBDCs could potentially become "safe havens" during crises. This could lead to higher risks for bank deposits, especially uninsured ones, making them more susceptible to withdrawals and even potential bank runs.

This is super exciting, and #NVDA is a definite buy. :) Healthcare Leaders Across #India Bring #NVIDIA NIM for Hindi Language to LLM Applications #Lifesciences and #healthcare organizations across India are using generative AI to build applications that can deliver life-saving impacts — within the country and across the globe. Among such leading organizations are research centers at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IIT Madras) and the Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT-Delhi), intelligent life sciences company Innoplexus and AI-led medical diagnostics platform provider 5C Network. Central to their work are NVIDIA NIM microservices, including the new Nemotron-4-Mini-Hindi 4B microservice for building sovereign AI applications and large language models (LLMs) in the #Hindi language. The Nemotron-4 Hindi model delivers the highest accuracy across benchmarks in 2 billion to 8 billion model-size categories for Hindi. With the Indian #healthcare market projected to grow from about $180 billion last year to $320 billion by 2028, the new #AI model has the potential to dramatically improve healthcare accessibility and efficiency. To gear up for such growing demands — and to help more patients faster — the Indian #government is significantly investing in building foundational AI models designed and developed within the country, including for healthcare, through initiatives like the #IndiaAI Mission. Members of the #Indianhealthcare ecosystem are leading the charge by advancing neuroscience research, combating antibiotic resistance, accelerating drug discovery, automating #diagnosticscan analysis and more — all with AI’s help. https://lnkd.in/eCkcQTYp

In the fast-evolving world of Global Capability Centers (GCCs), having a partner with deep, multi-faceted expertise is a game-changer. At Bridgepath Innovations, our team brings together over 150 years of practitioner experience, spanning the entire lifecycle of a GCC—from evaluation and design to building and transforming—coupled with insights from both the GCC perspective and the Enterprise side. This unique blend of experience makes us the ideal partner for organizations embarking on their GCC journey or seeking to transform their existing ones. 🔸 Bridging the GCC and Enterprise Perspectives One of the key differentiators of Bridgepath Innovations is our dual-lens approach. Our practitioners have worked not only within GCCs but also on the Enterprise side, managing and overseeing GCC operations from headquarters. This dual perspective allows us to: 🔹 Understand Organizational Goals Holistically: We align GCC strategies with broader enterprise objectives, ensuring that the center operates as a strategic asset rather than a siloed function. 🔹 Anticipate Challenges from Both Sides: Having navigated complexities from the GCC floor and the boardroom, we know how to design solutions that work across all levels of an organization. 🔹 Foster Seamless Collaboration: We bridge the gap between GCC teams and enterprise leadership, creating strategies that drive mutual understanding and shared success. 🔸 Supporting the Entire GCC Lifecycle 🔹 Evaluate: Laying the Foundation for Success We guide companies in assessing the feasibility and fit of a GCC model, factoring in industry benchmarks, market readiness, and organizational needs. Our evaluation ensures you start your GCC journey with clarity and confidence. 🔹 Design: Creating a Future-Proof Strategy Our practitioner expertise helps craft GCC frameworks tailored to your business, focusing on operational efficiency, talent acquisition, and long-term scalability. 🔹 Build: Executing with Precision Setting up a GCC is more than opening an offshore office. We bring hands-on experience to build centers that are operationally robust and strategically aligned, helping you avoid common pitfalls and achieve quicker time-to-value. 🔹 Transform: Driving Innovation and Growth For enterprises with established GCCs, we help transition them from cost-saving hubs to strategic business enablers. This includes optimizing operations, driving innovation, and integrating the GCC into the enterprise’s long-term growth strategy. 🔸 The Bridgepath Advantage In today’s competitive landscape, GCCs need to do more than just save costs. Whether you’re at the start of your GCC journey or looking to elevate its strategic contribution, Bridgepath Innovations offers the practitioner expertise and dual-perspective insights to make it happen. With our experience across the lifecycle of GCCs and from both sides of the table, we’re not just consultants—we’re your partners in success. #GCC #Enterprise #Partner #Value #Experience

India’s Global Capability Centers (#GCCs) are experiencing a significant transformation. Recent data indicates that approximately one-third of existing GCCs are expanding their presence within the country, with half aiming to do so within the next five years. This trend is driven by the need for diverse talent and the desire to mitigate risks associated with location concentration. By establishing multiple centers across various regions, companies can tap into a broader talent pool and ensure operational resilience. The impact of this expansion is substantial. GCCs contribute over 1% to India’s GDP and significantly boost service exports. The market size of India’s GCCs is projected to grow from $64.6 billion in fiscal 2024 to between $99 billion and $105 billion by 2030. This growth is not limited to traditional tech hubs like Bengaluru and Hyderabad. There’s a noticeable shift towards Tier 2 cities, offering cost advantages and access to untapped talent. As we witness this evolution, several questions arise: 1) How can organizations ensure that their multi-GCC strategy aligns with their global objectives while catering to local dynamics? 2) What measures should be taken to maintain a cohesive corporate culture across multiple centers in diverse locations? 3) How can companies leverage the unique strengths of each region to foster innovation and drive global competitiveness? #gics #techoutsourcing #beyondmetros #talentavailability Follow us on #ceosgurukul #firsttimeceos https://lnkd.in/dmg4m2E7

Our 'prepared mind' on India bank SaaS, i.e. companies selling SaaS to banks, NBFCs, Insurers, and AMCs. We definitely came out more positive post our work than going in. We’ve historically carried a level of scepticism in the ability of such companies to reach the coveted $100M ARR mark in the venture timeframe i.e. 10 years, primarily on account of the limited universe of large banks or NBFCs in India to sell to, which is unlike US or China. However, in light of some companies in this category (Perfios, M2P, Lentra) reaching meaningful scale, especially post COVID, we decided to refresh our view on the sector. So, here goes our key learnings on key challenges and key attractions. Top challenges include: - Banks’ existing software stack is very sticky and hard to displace - Universe of bank logos to sell to is limited, concentration risk an inevitability - No concept of MVP, need a near-final product at get-go - Long sales and implementation cycles - Need a very specific founder archetype to sell to a bank - High need for customisation and custom-integrations - Multiple products (and PMFs) needed to reach $100M ARR Top attractions include: - Existing stack is old and carries poor NPS - Expanding tech spend in banks, increasing SaaS mix  - High ACVs possible on the back of usage-based billing - High NRR with relative ease of cross-selling new products and to new buyers within bank - Network effects allowing first mover to get to dominant market share - Banks’ openness for multi-stacking can serve as a wedge to land the bank - Ability to command a price premium and high GMs (80%+) More detailed version: https://lnkd.in/gZi4--m5.
