Medikabazaar, a leading B2B healthcare supply chain startup based in Mumbai, has appointed Dinesh Lodha as its new Group CEO. Lodha, a seasoned veteran with over 20 years in the medtech industry, will be at the helm of Medikabazaar’s strategic growth, international expansion, and profitability initiatives.

Lodha brings a wealth of experience to the role, having served as Group CEO at TI Medical and Rupa & Company Limited, as well as Group CEO at Healthium Medtech. His career also includes significant roles such as Country Head for South Asia at Samsung’s Healthcare Division and various leadership positions at GE Healthcare.

In his new position, Lodha will focus on overseeing the Indian market while strengthening Medikabazaar’s product offerings and operational capabilities. The company is set to raise $250-300 million to support its expansion into international markets like Dubai, Singapore, and China, and is considering strategic acquisitions.

Medikabazaar, founded in 2015 by Vivek Tiwari and Ketan Malkan, offers a diverse range of products and services, including a B2B marketplace, an AI-ML-powered SaaS solution, medical financing, and asset management for medical equipment. The company serves over 10,000 medical centers and 30,000 independent doctors and clinics across India.

This leadership transition follows a recent restructuring where co-founder Vivek Tiwari moved from CEO to a board role, setting the stage for Lodha to lead Medikabazaar into its next phase of growth and innovation.
