Chennai-based Diagnostics firm, Neuberg Diagnostics Group, has appointed Kavya Velu as President – Strategy & Operations.
Kavya, who is the daughter of founder GSK Velu, previously set up Neuberg’s international operations in the US and has also led the company’s transformation into a process-first, scalable, and consumer-focused healthcare brand.
GSK Velu, a first-generation entrepreneur, has built a healthcare group with annual revenues exceeding $700 million through Neuberg Diagnostics, Trivitron Healthcare, Maxivision Eye Hospitals, Kauvery Hospitals Group and other healthcare & financial services ventures.
In her new role, Kavya Velu will oversee corporate strategy, operations, and organisational development, with a mandate to strengthen systems, drive IPO readiness, and deliver a consistent, world-class healthcare experience.
“Kavya represents a new era of leadership at Neuberg. She combines international exposure with strong operational execution and has already proven her ability to align systems, people, and purpose. Her leadership will play a pivotal role in positioning Neuberg as a globally respected diagnostics brand,” said A Ganesan, Vice-Chairman of Neuberg Diagnostics Group.
A graduate of Sarah Lawrence College, New York, Kavya holds a degree in psychology and pre-law. She also serves on the board of Trivitron Healthcare and Maxivision Eye Hospitals as Promoter and Director, and is the current convener of the Young Leadership Panel of FICCI Tamil Nadu.
“Diagnostics should feel approachable, empowering, and built on the highest standards of accuracy and innovation. My focus is to create systems and experiences that build trust at every step, making Neuberg a name people can rely on with confidence. We have an opportunity to transform how individuals engage with their health, by shifting from reactive care to pro-active, purpose-driven healthcare that truly puts people first,” Kavya Velu said on her appointment.
