Over the years healthcare startups have emerged as a preferable investment destination for the domestic as well foreign investments. India’s ever rising population and its humongous healthcare needs have given a strong reason to investors to invest in multitudes of healthcare startups. However, despite the promising outlook and prospects there still hasn’t been a single unicorn startup from the healthcare space.
