Adani Group has announced plans to invest Rs 6,000 crore in the development of two 1,000-bed multi-specialty hospitals and medical colleges in Mumbai and Ahmedabad. This venture, in partnership with the renowned Mayo Clinic, forms part of a larger Rs 10,000 crore healthcare initiative pledged by chairman Gautam Adani during the marriage of his younger son, Jeet, last week.
The Adani Group revealed that the Mayo Clinic, the world’s largest integrated not-for-profit medical group, will provide technical expertise to ensure the establishment of state-of-the-art facilities in both cities.
In a statement, the company said: “Adani Group will fully meet the cost of building affordable, world-class medical care and medical education to people from all strata of society pan India. The family will donate upwards of Rs 6,000 crore to build the first two of these integrated health campuses in Ahmedabad and Mumbai.”
Gautam Adani, one of India’s leading industrialists, outlined his vision for these healthcare campuses, which will include multi-specialty hospitals, medical colleges, and cutting-edge research facilities.
“Each of these integrated campuses will comprise 1,000-bed multi-super-specialty hospitals, medical colleges with an annual intake of 150 undergraduates, 80+ residents and 40+ fellows, step-down and transitional care facilities, and cutting-edge research facilities,” the statement explained.
The integrated medical ecosystem is designed to serve people from all socio-economic backgrounds, providing world-class medical education, training the next generation of doctors, and advancing clinical research in areas such as artificial intelligence and biomedical informatics.
“Two years ago, as a gift to me on my 60th birthday, my family committed Rs 60,000 crore towards improving healthcare, education, and skill development,” Gautam Adani shared.
“The development of Adani Health City is the first of many major projects from this contribution, which will go a long way towards providing affordable, world-class healthcare to people from every section of Indian society. I am confident that our partnership with Mayo Clinic will help elevate healthcare standards in India, with a special emphasis on complex disease care and medical innovation.”
Mayo Clinic will provide strategic advice and guidance to Adani Group throughout the development of these campuses, assisting with organisational objectives, clinical practices, and the integration of advanced digital and healthcare technologies.
The Mayo Clinic initiative aims to support healthcare providers by designing customised engagements that bring together the right experts to achieve the desired outcomes for healthcare development.
Plans for additional “Adani Health Cities” across India are already underway, with more details expected in the future.
