“Skilling isn’t just a department, it’s a culture. Every time we grew, it was because our people grew.”
When Prashant Tandon returned to India in 2009 with a vision to digitize healthcare, he quickly discovered the reality on ground reality, doctors refused to type prescriptions on computers, patients carried physical files from clinic to clinic, and a staggering 5-25% of medicines in the country were classified as "not of standard quality."
But instead of giving up, Prashant and his team made a crucial pivot – putting patients at the center of care. Fast forward to today – Tata 1mg commands 30% market share and is reshaping how 1.4 billion people access healthcare.
In this episode:
- The evolution from Healthkart to Tata 1mg
- Why building in healthcare demands patience, integrity, and long-term thinking
- Lessons from digitising India’s most complex ecosystem, from pharmacies to diagnostics
- How quality, authenticity, and people-centric skilling became competitive advantages
- The role of AI and data in redefining the future of Indian healthcare
This is the story of building one of India's most trusted healthcare platform through patience, principles, and an obsessive focus on doing things the right way, even when it takes longer.
