The book concludes with a vision of MedTech from the present $12B to $50B in 2025 and $100B by 2030. This would happen, not by commercial wizardry, but by taking modern healthcare services to every district of India and thereby serving a market of over a billion people. The products and services developed in this process and the global cadre of skilled people in MedTech emerging out of this eco-system would make this possible.
Organized into 18 chapters, the book inspires the indomitable spirit of creativity and entrepreneurship and shares a candid chronicle of the success of Indians globally, and how many global companies and international experts turned India-enthusiasts, making India the centrepiece of their business strategy. Studded with rare pictures of luminaries and historical moments, it is a must-read for anyone who believes in, 'If it is doable, I can do it, '
Nothing is impossible!
The book illustrates painstaking and relentless work necessary to create a technology-intensive industry in a developing country. It doesn't happen in a flash, and it doesn't happen in a straight line. It takes leaders with imagination, courage, doggedness, and grit, who replace one ambitious goal with another until eventually they achieve results that would have seemed impossible in the beginning.
