Navia’s solutions are designed to make healthcare delivery more efficient and data-driven. Its platforms allow physicians to access patient histories in real time, create digital prescriptions using voice-to-text and AI-enabled tools, and manage clinical workflows more effectively. The company has scaled its services to thousands of doctors across hundreds of cities in India, reflecting its growing impact in the digital health ecosystem.

Dhawan’s entrepreneurial journey is rooted in a strong background in healthcare strategy and life sciences. Prior to founding Navia, he worked with global organizations such as Fresenius Kabi, PwC, GSK, and Abbott Vascular, gaining experience in business development, healthcare systems, and pharmaceutical operations. He is a graduate of Carnegie Mellon University, where he developed a multidisciplinary perspective combining technology, healthcare, and business strategy.

Through Navia, he has been a strong advocate for digital transformation in healthcare, emphasizing the role of technology in improving access, affordability, and patient outcomes. His work continues to focus on building scalable, interoperable platforms that reduce inefficiencies in healthcare delivery and empower both patients and providers with better data and insights.
