MR PRASHANT KUMAR PATHAK

A Versed Passionpreneur Renovating The Pharma Space

The changing scenario of pharmaceutical industry has brought a series of complex challenges for its leaders. The shifting regulatory parameters, inclusion of technology with ever-increasing R&D budgets have created fierce competition. Moreover, with the pandemic still raging, the stakes are extremely high. Such a scenario requires leaders, whose vision resides in bringing value for the industry and community at large.

Mr Prashant Kumar Pathak is one such pharmaceutical industy leader with proven expertise in both National and International Market. GHC Drugs & Pharmaceuticals – A valuable representation of his experience and potential, is penetrating the pharma space through qualified formulations and marketing approaches.

RESHAPING THE PHARMA SPACE
Mr Prashant Pathak founded GHC Drugs & Pharmaceuticals, on the premise of doing something profound for the pharma industry. He is one of those 1st Generation entrepreneurs, who witnessed the glorious transformation of the Indian pharma space.

After an excursion of 36+ years, including 5 years as founder-MD & CEO of a built to 50+ crore start-up, Mr Prashant Pathak saw the surge of a stereotypical notion. A good proportion of medical professionals and the public believe that only expensive medicines are good, and the masses need to settle for less than the best quality. On the other hand, with disruptions becoming widely inclusive, it’s imperative for businesses to have innovation at heart. Traditional methods need to be revamped for creating new benchmarks. And the ‘Spray and pray’ model needs to be replaced by targeted marketing practices. Micromarketing approaches need to be prioritized to create strong niche presence in the market.

Understanding the scenario, he leveraged off his expertise to ideate a Company that offers affordable and qualified medicines, generate positive awareness while refining the widespread perception. And, this led to the inception of GHC Drugs & Pharmaceuticals in 2020.

The collaboration of the duo has created value-added approaches that focus on building holistic relationships between the promoters, prescribers and patients.
