Scaling DocTrue through business design and GTM strategy within the NSRCEL incubation program.
Intro
I'm Akshay Ramesh, the Co-Founder and CEO of DocTrue, where we are focused on automating clinic appointments and queues through WhatsApp. My career has been a blend of creative digital media and functional business building—I’ve managed Bengaluru Memes, a community of over 70,000 followers, while simultaneously diving deep into the startup ecosystem through incubation programs like NSRCEL at IIMB and Deshpande Startups. I am passionate about the intersection of technology and healthcare, specifically how we can use lean methodologies to solve real-world operational problems. Whether it's orchestrating promotional campaigns or designing a go-to-market strategy, I enjoy bridging the gap between creative content and business growth. I’m currently looking to expand my professional network and explore new opportunities within the startup and health-tech space. If you're interested in digital marketing, startup growth, or healthcare innovation, I’d love to connect and share experiences.
