Well known entrepreneur Dr. Aashish Suresh Mangal, who has done pioneering work in the field of health care and pharmaceuticals, was awarded the Honorary Doctorate in Business Management and Finance by The Thames International University, Europe, at a ceremony in Dubai on May 10.
The award that honours individuals who have contributed to the society significantly through business and humanitarian work is a fitting tribute to Dr. Mangal's remarkable journey of entrepreneurial excellence and profound social impact.
Starting his entrepreneurial journey in 2009 with the establishment of Pace LLC, a Mumbai-based company specializing in health care and pharmaceuticals, Dr. Mangal went on to build a dynamic global enterprise spanning surgical manufacturing, agro-commodities, petrochemicals, and technology investments. His vision expanded further in 2014 with the launch of Pace Global FZE in the United Arab Emirates, integrating business success with a strong commitment to social service.
"In Dr. Mangal, we don't just see a successful businessman; we see a visionary who builds enterprises that create profound social impact. His ability to harmonize commercial success with humanitarian ideals is the leadership our world desperately needs," said the Vice-Chancellor of Thames International University during the award ceremony.
Dr. Mangal's humanitarian work springs from his personal experiences. Inspired by his wife Payal Mangal's battle with kidney complications, he championed healthcare accessibility-- notably partnering with the Narmada Kidney Foundation and launching affordable immunosuppressant drugs under the mentorship of Dr. Bharat V. Shah. His work during the COVID-19 crisis, when he provided critical refrigeration units for vaccine storage and supported hospitals in other ways, was particularly commendable. It was officially recognized by the Governor of Maharashtra, Bhagat Singh Koshyari.
Beyond his corporate endeavors, Dr. Mangal has been organizing initiatives such as the National Transplant Games, supporting organ transplant recipients and promoting blood donation drives. His daughter Anshika Mangal, who at the young age of 19 became India's fastest female commercial pilot trainee in the United States, completing her training in a record time of 5 months and 10 days.
