More about Monika Mehta
AI enthusiast || Problem solver || Generative AI || Digital health || Automation lover
I am a passionate entrepreneur working towards building the future of value-based healthcare. And here is why I decided to go for entrepreneurship instead of staying in a corporate job:
1. Inspired from my personal experience of Iosing a very close family member- first handedly experienced the gaps that exist in the healthcare system- decided to build a solution so that millions of others can potentially be saved.
2. I feel nothing can be more satisfying than building an organisation from scratch - that adrenaline rush is what keeps me going.
3. I have a strong urge to create something that lasts way beyond myself- want to grow it to scale and grow as a professional along with it.
Before starting up, I worked with some of the leading hospitals in Singapore as well as in collaboration with Oxford. Worked on exciting drugs for autoimmune diseases and cancer during my PhD at School of Medicine, NUS; in my last job at a top Pharma Company, I led various oncology projects in collaboration with Roche and Genentech.
During the last 10 years, I developed skills like leadership, teamwork, communication, and a goal-oriented growth mindset through various roles. I follow the simple principle- "fail fast, learn faster” :)

The eChai Effect - In Their Words
"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
