Founded in 1995, Shield has built its leadership position over the years by bringing out unique and path-breaking pharmaceutical solutions in its chosen therapeutic segments.
Brio Bliss Life Science focuses on developmental pediatrics segment. While Nutri Synapzz caters to IVF specialties across India. With the acquisitions, Shield Healthcare aims to increase its market dominance in gynaecology and paediatrics.
Shield Healthcare has onboarded Aniruddha Rajurkar as its CEO. Rajurkar is M Pharm from BITS Pilani, with an MBA in Marketing. In his 22 years of experience, he has played leadership roles across therapies and specialties in leading pharma companies. Prior to Shield, he was heading India Business at Dr Reddy’s Laboratories.
L Mahadevan, Founder and MD, said, “At Shield, we started our journey 25 years back catering to GPs and physicians. The footprint of the company increased from Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh to other parts of South India and then to the rest of the country. We continued to evolve ahead of the industry. Realising the shift in the market, we zeroed in on gynaecology and infertility segments and later to pediatrics. Today, we are looking at expansion via organic and inorganic growth. To further strengthen our growth journey, we have brought on board, Aniruddha Rajurkar.”
