🚀 Shaping the Future of Healthcare Education: Virohan Raises ₹65Cr (~$7.5M)

@JoinVirohan (Fund IV) has raised ₹65Cr in a round led by Mynavi Corporation. We participated in the round along with Bharat Inclusive Technologies Seed Fund and Rebright Partners.

Founded by @KunaalDudeja (Kunaal), @nalinsaluja (Nalin), and Archit Jayaswal, Virohan is the pioneer in healthcare education, enabling leading universities and healthcare organizations to create a robust education-to-employment pipeline for aspiring healthcare professionals. They have tied up with over 20 higher education institutions and trained over 13,000 learners to date.

The fresh capital will accelerate Virohan’s path to profitability through product innovation, operational efficiencies, and strategic talent expansion.

"The healthcare system runs on the strength of skilled professionals, yet millions of roles remain unfilled due to broken pathways between education and employment. By 2030, we aim to impact one million learners and become the backbone of the allied healthcare workforce, in India and abroad,” said Kunaal Dudeja, CEO of Virohan.

Sajith Pai, Partner at Blume, says, ”We have always seen Indian education as being a key engine of catalyzing the nation’s development. This is why we are excited to partner with Virohan, for its ambition and mission to skill and upgrade the next hundred million Indians, expanding opportunities for all.”

With this milestone, Virohan is poised to shape the next decade of healthcare education and workforce development in India—creating a stronger bridge between classrooms and careers.

This is hilarious.

This is still the best investing advice I've ever received:

Great investors think like farmers.

[Archit Jayaswal @aj_archit]

@sajithpai Excellent recommendation Sajith. First time was magical for me as well.

Also, the audible version is fully voice-acted- great for a second run in NCR traffic.

Tech is here to stay and the disruption is just getting started. Instead of outright bans, perhaps we can systematically integrate #ChatGPT and other tools into higher education to achieve better learning outcomes.

This recent trend of posting videos of Indians fighting on flights is hilarious but also kinda sad.
These people are likely top 3% of India’s per capita income affording air travel and are ‘educated’. It shows we have a long way to go, even culturally.

@RishabhSinghi23 @paraschopra This is the best option. Opt in for no breakfast while booking or, if you love breakfast spreads, skip lunch and have early dinner. Continue to meet calorie and if possible, protein thresholds

We had the quarterly review and planning with Our leaders offsite for the first time yesterday.

It’s amazing how much the physical environment can affect the energy and mindset of the room!

[Archit Jayaswal @aj_archit]

@NavyaKedia Take a lot of feedback from everyone. Act on very few, important ones at a time.

[Archit Jayaswal @aj_archit]

@paraschopra Certain governments 😄

[Archit Jayaswal @aj_archit]

@Ohara_the_Fox Yohohohohoho

[Kunal Shah @kunalb11]

Experience is frequency and quality of feedback loops and not elapsed years.

Many people stay the same for years and many evolve 10x in a single year.

[Archit Jayaswal @aj_archit]

@jarridvtingle Great thread Jarrid. Lots of valuable insights!

[Archit Jayaswal @aj_archit]

@thefaadguy They should. But, if they do that at this point, kids will have to mug up definitions and names and types of companies, founders etc. We need a systemic overhaul in pedagogy and a trainer program that supports it.
