For Prashant Tandon, the itch to return to India and start something of his own started in 2007, when he graduated from business school. But he parked himself at McKinsey for a couple of years to figure out his next course of action. This is where he was introduced to healthcare and met his co-founder.

By 2009, things started falling in place for him – from getting the idea of what to do, which sector and tech to choose, to the where’s and who’s.

Prashant’s company, Gurugram-based digital health startup 1mg, aims to make healthcare accessible and economical. In June 2021, Tata Digital Ltd acquired 55% stake in 1mg to form Tata 1MG.For Prashant Tandon, the itch to return to India and start something of his own started in 2007, when he graduated from business school.
