Surat: Doctorpreneur 2026, a first-of-its-kind conference dedicated to medical entrepreneurship, concluded with resounding success, attracting more than 300 delegates from Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, and several other parts of India. The auditorium remained filled throughout the six-hour program, reflecting the immense interest among doctors in learning how to build sustainable, ethical, and successful healthcare enterprises.
The conference featured an outstanding panel of nationally and internationally renowned faculty, including Dr. Parveen Bhatia, Dr. Adarsh Chaudhary, Dr. Roy Patankar, Dr. Shailesh Puntambekar, Dr. Raj Nagarkar, Dr. Bhikhubhai Patel, Mr. Rajesh Yadav, and Dr. Praveen Raj (online). Drawing upon decades of experience, the speakers shared practical insights into the opportunities, challenges, risks, and strategies involved in becoming successful doctor-entrepreneurs. Their sessions were based on real-life experiences and case studies, providing delegates with practical wisdom rarely found in textbooks.
Conference Chairman Dr. M. M. Qureshi said, “The near 100% attendance throughout the six-hour conference and the enthusiastic participation of the delegates clearly demonstrate that entrepreneurship has become as essential for today’s doctors as modern medical technology. The overwhelming feedback requesting more such conferences confirms the growing need for this initiative.”
Dr. Qureshi further emphasized that while many corporate healthcare systems are driven primarily by financial targets, doctor-entrepreneurs are better positioned to keep patient welfare and quality healthcare at the center of their decisions. The conference aimed to inspire doctors to build healthcare organizations that combine professional excellence with ethical entrepreneurship.
The conference was successfully organized with the dedicated efforts of Dr. Keyur Bhatt, Dr. Vikram Lodwala, Dr. Keyur Yagnik, Dr. Tejas Patel, Dr. Dhaval Mangukiya, Dr. Manish Mehta, Dr. Ramraksh Pal, Dr. Dharmesh Dhanani, and Dr. Jay Chokshi, along with the entire Organizing Committee and Executive Committee. The program was expertly moderated by Dr. Keyur Bhatt, while the vote of thanks was delivered by Dr. Vikram Lodwala.
Concluding the event, Dr. Qureshi expressed his hope that Doctorpreneur would evolve into a nationwide movement, with similar conferences being organized across India to empower doctors to become visionary, ethical, and patient-centric entrepreneurs.
