Maharashtra govt signs MoU with US clinics for $1.2 billion Navi Mumbai MediCity Project
Mumbai: The state govt has signed an MoU with the Cleveland Clinic (Ohio, USA), Brookfield Asset Management and Arodhan Health City to develop the Navi Mumbai International MediCity (NMIMC), Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced on Wednesday. Describing the project as a first-of-its-kind global healthcare, research and innovation ecosystem in India, Fadnavis in a social media post said the proposed MediCity project will involve an investment of $1.2 billion USD. It is expected to generate around 10,000 jobs. “Spread across 250 acres in Navi Mumbai, the facility will integrate world-class patient care with cutting-edge medical research and innovation,” said the chief minister.
The announcement marks one of the largest international healthcare collaborations in the country. Fadnavis said the development will combine healthcare delivery with emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, genomics and advanced clinical research, creating a modern ecosystem for medical advancement in India.
The Cleveland Clinic will act as the anchor healthcare partner for the project, bringing its global expertise in clinical care and medical research. The MoU signing ceremony was attended by senior representatives from Cleveland Clinic, including CEO Dr Tomislav Mihaljevic, Dr Sameer Kapadia (chairman, cardiovascular medicine), Lakshmi Mittal (executive chairman, ArcelorMittal) and Dr Falcone (President, emerging markets), along with officials from partner organisations.
Beyond patient care, the Navi Mumbai MediCity in Maharashtra will also focus on medical education, training and innovation-driven healthcare solutions, said officials. The integration of AI-based systems and genomics research is expected to place the project among the most advanced healthcare ecosystems globally and will strengthen India's capacity in specialised healthcare services, creating new opportunities for collaboration between global and Indian medical institutions.
