Thought Leadership


Dr. B.R. Shetty

Founder and Chairman

The ‘NMC success story’ has been a memorable one for those who were an integral part of this journey. Sparked by a vision and driven by determination and commitment, this group has transformed from a humble one-room clinic in 1975 to one of the biggest healthcare conglomerates in the region. The company is now also listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Recognizing the available opportunity in pharmaceutical manufacturing and the importance of backward integration of the healthcare chain, Dr. B.R.Shetty made a planned foray into pharmaceutical manufacturing and and led to the foundation of Neopharma in 2003, Abu Dhabi’s first state-of-the-art pharmaceutical plant.
