Company Snapshot

Medanta is one of India’s leading multi-speciality healthcare providers, founded in 2009 and headquartered in Gurgaon. Now a public company, it has grown from a flagship hospital into a large healthcare network across North and East India, serving over 2 million patients annually across 30+ specialities. With digital health, telemedicine, e-ICU, AI-assisted diagnostics, robotic surgery, and patient-facing platforms becoming key to its scale, technology has become central to improving access, experience, efficiency, and care delivery.

The Challenge at Hand

Medanta’s scale had moved beyond a traditional hospital technology setup. As its network and digital touchpoints grew, the challenge was to:

• Move digital services from isolated systems to a connected, scalable healthcare journey

• Build stronger engineering leadership across North and East India

• Make platforms more reliable

• Improve execution speed

• Scale patient-facing systems with less friction

• Reduce the risk of fragmented patient experience, slower delivery, and weaker digital transformation impact

Closing the Leadership Gap

Using Purple Quarter’s Behaviour Metrics Model, Vibhor Singhal was identified as a strong Nurturer and Reconstructor, making him well-suited for system rebuilding and team alignment. His interest in health tech, motivation to contribute to India’s healthcare ecosystem, and ability to spot gaps in Medanta’s systems strengthened the fit. The mandate was about bringing in a leader who could rebuild, modernise, and scale Medanta’s technology foundation for its next phase of growth.

Purple Quarter helped Medanta identify a Head of Engineering who could:

• Operate within a legacy healthcare technology environment while driving digital transformation

• Stabilise existing systems

• Rethink technology strategy

• Work closely with teams and stakeholders

• Bring practical experience across BI, data tools, and healthcare systems
