Kunaal Dudeja, CEO of Virohan, said: “The healthcare system runs on the strength of skilled professionals, yet millions of roles remain unfilled due to broken pathways between education and employment. At Virohan, our mission is to close this gap at scale as an industry partner to higher education institutions...By 2030, we aim to impact one million learners and become the backbone of the allied healthcare workforce, in India and abroad.”
Hidekazu Ito, Managing Director at Mynavi India, said, “The demand for skilled healthcare professionals in India and across the globe is growing at an unprecedented pace and Virohan’s model - bringing together technology, industry-aligned education and strong institutional partnerships - has the potential to redefine how healthcare education is delivered at scale. We at Mynavi have grown with a purpose-driven culture, supporting people’s turning points and career transitions through our human resources businesses in the Japanese market. In the Indian context, we are focusing on addressing critical challenges in the human resource and education sectors.”
Founded in 2018, Virohan operates at the intersection of higher education and healthcare employment, addressing shortages of trained technicians, nurses, and paramedical staff in India’s hospitals, labs and outpatient centers.
Although India produces many medical graduates, allied roles—such as lab technologists, radiology technicians, optometrists and operating theatre assistants—remain in short supply especially outside major cities.

Raisoni University, to design and deliver undergraduate programs in allied healthcare, nursing, and healthcare management.
The startup also works with employers like Medanta, Dr. Lal PathLabs, Healthians, and lenskart to align curricula with industry needs and create direct hiring pipelines. Since its founding, Virohan has trained more than 13,000 students and partnered with over 2,000 healthcare employers.
