About

I'm a revenue and growth leader with 10 years of experience building and scaling business and research innovation ecosystems. As Head of Revenue and Growth at POSSPOLE Inc., I lead multiple innovation verticals with a mandate to drive the company toward a ₹100 Cr revenue mark by the end of FY 2028–29 turning early-stage innovators into commercially viable, scalable ventures. Previously, as a Program Manager at the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India, I worked to give grassroots innovations a national-level playing field, enabling their expansion through RSVC initiatives. I alone with my division director have conceptualized the L.A.G.H.U initiative to solve Indian MSME specific R&D problems. Earlier, at the Andhra Pradesh MedTech Zone (AMTZ), I helped med-tech innovators take their ideas from 0 to 1. I was promoted to Executive Assistant to the MD & CEO, supporting the management of the world's largest med-tech manufacturing cluster. Across these roles, my focus has stayed consistent: connecting innovation with markets, and helping ideas find the structure, partnerships, and revenue they need to grow.
