To provide quality healthcare to one and all is the ultimate mission and vision of the global healthcare ecosystem. This determination sparked off numerous medical inventions that have significantly enhanced healthcare delivery practices across the globe. The collective effort of the Indian healthcare industry has created opportunities to augment the sector and confer quality and timely care to the populace. A medical device company MedPrime Technologies perceives the significance of technological innovations to stimulate the transformation of the healthcare ecosystem. The company is earnestly developing pre-eminent customer-centric solutions to surfeit the necessities of the healthcare industry across the globe. The company has set its sight on developing the best diagnostic services available to every individual irrespective of their geographic location through digitization and automation.
Four alumni of IIT Bombay with Biomedical Engineering Postgraduate degrees, Samrat, Greeshma Unnikrishnan, Binil Jacob, and Mahesh Kumar Rathor are the brains behind this innovative firm. They share a joint vision of deploying contemporary technology solutions to transform the healthcare industry. They aim to develop the best diagnostic services and make them available to everyone irrespective of their geographic location through digitization and automation. The quartet has put their heads together to build patent-approved, digital portable and desktop microscopes that are suitable for diagnostic and research applications. Their groundbreaking innovation is a range of exclusive Tablet integrated microscopes called Cilika- designed to capture high-quality images and videos that can be live-streamed or instantly shared via e-mails or any messaging app.
This facility enables pathology labs to operate in the hub and spoke model where the doctor can look at the samples and diagnose remotely, reducing the time and effort invested in the process of diagnosis and treatment. These user-friendly device supports:
- Its high definition touchscreen display with a variable angle provides an incredible user experience, unmatched comfort and crystal clear images.
- The study of the sample for hours with reduced strain and health hazards.
- The ability to capture images, videos, annotate, measure and project samples with just a click makes it an ideal tool for education in medicine and biological sciences.
- Cilika’s Benchtop attribute surfeits the needs of users who prefer the familiarity and sturdiness of traditional desktop microscope designs.
- For care providers who diagnose and treat ailments from work to home and lab to field, portable Cilika supports them with high quality imaging.
MedPrime Technologies is incubated at the Center of Excellence – IoT & AI, Gurugram, which is a Joint initiative of the Ministry of Electronics & IT (MeitY), Govt. of Haryana, and NASSCOM. It has been shortlisted for the Jury Round for the Digitising Pathology use case of Healthcare Innovation Challenge (HIC), organized by CoE to enable digital adoption in the Healthcare sector.
“We take pride in saying that we have been successful in creating a niche for ourselves and grabbed the attention of stakeholders in the ecosystem. Cilika is the world’s first Tablet integrated microscope that is suitable for diagnosis and we are quite optimistic about bringing in innovations that can give a new definition to the nation’s microscopy-based diagnostics,” states Samrat, Founder of MedPrime Technologies.
Recently, the Mumbai Angels Network in a Seed round led by Social Alpha has announced an investment (undisclosed amount) in this health tech startup. The startup intends to use this funding for the enhancement of its Cilika product line and make it more profitable. Besides this, it also plans to use this money for developing digital solutions to the microscopy segment of medical diagnostics and design AI components for MICALYS. SINE IIT Bombay, RiSo Capital, Lavni Ventures, and Keiretsu Forum also participated in the round.
For the time to come, MedPrime Technologies aspires to extend its business across the country and overseas and further innovate solutions that decipher the healthcare challenges. The company’s future vision is to leverage Machine Learning to further automate its products and solutions.
“NASSCOM CoE-IoT & AI provides a high-energy and inspiring work environment, not to mention the infinite networking opportunities with other entrepreneurs, mentors, experts, and corporates. CoE has a good reach in the corporate sector and utilizes it for the benefit and growth of its startups. CoE was instrumental in getting us big break with Dr. Lal Pathlabs and we have executed a few deployments for them.” Greeshma Unnikrishnan, Co-Founder, MedPrime Technologies.
