About (IC)2
IC InnovatorCLUB (IC)2 is the brainchild of Surgeon Rear Admiral V K Singh (Retd.) who is also the author of the book “Innovations in Healthcare Management: Cost-Effective and Sustainable Solutions”. He, along with some like-minded partners created a company InnovatioCuris (IC) to address the high cost of healthcare through innovation, use of technology and similar tools.
