MrMed was conceived in August 2020 when Devashish Singh and Saurab Jain[3] noticed challenges in specialty medicines.[4] Despite facing initial setbacks due to the Covid Delta wave in India, which prompted the founders and their team to prioritize community assistance, MrMed was officially launched in June 2021. The company launched its mobile app in March 2023 for access to speciality medicines for conditions such as cancer, transplants, kidney, or liver diseases. It also raised $500,000 in funding from the Tamil Nadu Emerging Sector Seed Fund (TNESSF) and angel investors.[5] [6] [7]
