Gopi co-founded Omega Healthcare in 2003 with Anurag Mehta. “As a platform, Omega is extremely well positioned in the healthcare services market to continue to be a leader. With Anurag and Sumithra at the helm, the company is poised to scale greater heights supported by the able senior leadership talent. I wish them the very best in their new roles,” Gopi commented. He will continue to be closely associated with Omega as a key advisor to the Company in several capacities.
“I have had the privilege of working with Gopi for over 20 years now. Not only has he been an invaluable leader for Omega, but he has also been an incredible business partner and friend. I am delighted that he will stay connected as an advisor to the company. I would also like to congratulate Sumithra on her new role. Her invaluable experience will help Omega strengthen its market-leading position,” said Anurag.
Omega also announced that a current member of the Board of Directors, Sumithra Gomatam, has been appointed as the Executive Chair of the Omega board.
