Background

About Mandar Kulkarni

Senior Leader with 8+ years in Healthcare & Life Sciences, specializing in Digital & Data Analytics across Vaccines, HIV, Diabetes, and Rare Diseases; I drive strategic forecasting, commercial analytics, consulting, and business development for multi-billion-dollar projects, leading high-performing teams and delivering enterprise-wide digital transformation. With a Master’s in Chemical Engineering from IIT Madras and a Bachelor’s from BITS Pilani Goa Campus, I’ve been fortunate to learn from the best and build a strong technical foundation combined with hands-on business expertise. My professional journey has been shaped by a passion for decision-making, a focus on strategic growth. And when I’m not in professional mode, you’ll find me helping in with our family’s instant food and banquet business. It’s a whole different world from corporate life, but the daily ground-level lessons are unmatched! Always eager to exchange ideas on startups, equity markets, and leadership, I look forward to connecting with like-minded professionals and exploring opportunities to create meaningful impact. Let's connect!
