1/8 Tks @FICCI_CTech & @ficci_india. @PrinSciAdvGoI recently mentioned the immediate needs to deal ranging from PPEs, RDTs, MobilApps, Criticalcare Equipments to Sterilising Equipments. I believe that we have several (indeed several) products between (TRL6-9) @PMOIndia @GKangInd
2/8 These products could be quickly assessed & along with #Indian #medtech #manufacturers productn could be ramped up to meet the immediate need for #Covid19 care. #agencies esp @BIRAC_2012 & @MADevImpact (@eittee & @AbhaySinghKr) have many #medtech #products in their portfolio
3/8deep expertise in the Indian #medtech ecosystem. Requesting @vijaychandru @chandynair @ShyamVasudev #NavakantBhat (@CeNSEatIISc), @PremnathV6 @DeepanwitaC #RadhaRangarajan #DhananjayaDendukuri/@AchiraDx @nanduperfint @RenuJohn to send thoughts to @PrinSciAdvGoI @amitabhk87
