Kamal Narayan Omer is the CEO at IHW Council. Kamal started his career as a journalist with leading English newspaper Hindustan Times. He later worked with leading wire agencies United News of India and Press Trust of India where he reported on a wide series of sensitive subjects including the dismal reach of healthcare among Indian masses. His time in journalism also aroused in him a deep interest in the large and rapidly changing field of communication.
After stint in Financial Chronicle newspaper, Kamal decided to turn entrepreneur and co-founded Teamwork Communications Solutions Pvt Ltd. in 2009. Within a decade of starting up, Teamwork Communications has already made a name for itself as a multi faceted communications agency that designs versatile and effective communication campaigns and solutions for individuals, healthcare organizations, government bodies as well as private companies.
In 2014, Kamal founded the IHW Council health initiatives that sought to work aggressively towards finding sustainable, affordable and effective solutions in Indian healthcare. Even as the healthcare scenario in India was witnessing a rapid change, there remained a major void for platforms that could offer viable and influential forums for a healthy multi stakeholder discourse on India’s healthcare needs and policy. IHW Council initiatives have been working to fill this void through a series of initiatives over the past half a decade
