Bio
Dr Paridhi Mehra
I had the pleasure of working with Raghu during my tenure at Celes Care. He is one of those rare managers who also naturally serve as an inspiring mentor for the whole team. He is the one who introduced me to software product management. With 24+ years of experience in the field of product management I consider myself fortunate that I got the opportunity to learn and grow as a professional under him. He was very kind and patient with me while I came up to speed. One of the other things worth mentioning about him is his ability stand by values and principles no matter how difficult or stressful the external circumstances are. Raghu’s positive attitude and the respect others feel toward him are palpable.

At Future World Studios we use the power of immersive storytelling to drastically improve remote product demonstrations and training. We create 3D representations that can be used to remotely demonstrate your product and all of its features using AR/VR technology. We also help doctors SHOW patients instead of explaining to them how a new medical device works. Based on early customer feedback, this increases procedure sales 10x as compared to currently used methods like brochures or videos. We also help doctors to train their staff more efficiently than ever before. Show less
