Ravi Virmani is the Founder and MD of Credihealth.com, a first of its kind healthcare portal in India.

Ravi has a solid track record of a successful business leader. In 1990, he co-founded Noble House in a garage and further shaped its growth for over a decade by leading and creating an institution in South Asia of the finest consulting caliber and financial success. He attracted, nurtured and mentored a large team of consultants. Noble House eventually evolved to become Hewitt Associates - India, over time.

After successful stints as MD at Hewitt South Asia and CEO Aventus Consulting (both in Singapore), he returned to India as COO of Max Healthcare immediately before founding Credihealth.
