| In 2016, Aishwarya Damodar entered Healthcare by spearheading the operations setup for Chikitsak LifeSciences in Bengaluru, enabling a swift and effective launch in a highly regulated sector. She demonstrated the same clarity she once brought to media and digital ecosystems – translating it now to healthcare compliance, operations, and partnerships. She continued to advise healthcare startups, crafting digital presence strategies and investor-ready pitch decks. Her work with medical device partnerships in China highlighted her ability to bridge geographies and secure sustainable supplier ecosystems. Her contribution was recognized in Fostering Excellence, an e-book released by Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi at CSD 2017 — a rare acknowledgment for an independent strategist. Healthcare for her was not just operations, but impact: a sector where lives and livelihoods intersect. She entered as an outsider, but left footprints that demonstrated the power of adaptability and strategy in even the most regulated domains. |
