Welcoming Aarti to Rediffusion Healthcare, Sujata Mahadik, CEO, said, “We have been asked by many clients to provide market research in addition to our existing bouquet of offerings. With Aarti coming on board, we will be able to plug this gap in our services. I hope that we shall attain market leadership in this domain in a very short period of time as there are very few specialists in this domain. Aarti is a well experienced research resource and we hope she will provide the necessary leadership and direction to this new division of ours.”
