Mumbai: Speaking at the SMISS AP event at The Taj Mahal Palace, Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, delivered an inspiring address to India’s top spine surgeons and medical experts. He praised doctors as “symbols of hope” and emphasized that true healing blends both medicine and humanity.

Adani reflected on his personal journey — from polishing diamonds in Mumbai to building India’s largest ports, airports, and renewable energy platforms — drawing parallels between spinal resilience in the body and backbone leadership in organizations.

He highlighted India’s “spinal epidemic,” stating that nearly 1 in 2 adult Indians suffer from low back pain, making it the leading cause of disability. He warned that without addressing this crisis, India's rise would be compromised.

Calling for entrepreneurial thinking in healthcare, Adani urged doctors to:

- Build AI-powered spinal diagnostic platforms

- Innovate mobile rural surgery units

Develop next-gen spinal hospitals featuring robotics and regenerative medicine

He also reaffirmed the Adani Group’s Rs 60,000 crore pledge made on his 60th birthday, focused on healthcare, education, and skill development. He emphasized that India needs a system-wide redesign, not just upgrades, with a strong focus on AI, empathy, and integration across care, training, and research.

The group’s major initiative, Adani Healthcare Temples, will begin in Ahmedabad and Mumbai, creating 1,000-bed AI-first campuses. These will be developed in partnership with Mayo Clinic to bring global standards in infrastructure and innovation.

Concluding with a call to action, Adani encouraged India’s medical community to “go for it” — to dream big, pioneer breakthroughs, and help build the spine of a stronger India.
