Pune-Based Periwinkle Technologies Puts Indian Cervical Cancer Detecting Innovation on the Global BRICS Stage

During the BRICS leaders’ visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto and other BRICS representatives were among the leaders associated with the high-level BRICS engagements in New Delhi. The exposition showcased Indian innovations spanning healthcare, AI, quantum technology, robotics, biotechnology, semiconductors, space and advanced technologies.

At the Periwinkle Technologies showcase, Moktali and Naik explained how Smart Scope® CX is designed to bring AI-enabled cervical cancer screening and triage closer to women, including communities where specialist healthcare and diagnostic infrastructure may be limited. The company says its platform combines medical imaging, AI and connected healthcare to enable rapid cervical cancer risk assessment.

The significance is considerable. Cervical cancer remains a major women’s health challenge, particularly where screening access, specialist availability and continuity of care remain limited. Periwinkle’s approach focuses on shortening the journey from screening and imaging to risk assessment and appropriate clinical follow-up.

For a company that began its journey in Pune, the BRICS platform represents a defining moment in its international journey. Periwinkle Technologies says its technology has already been used to screen more than 500,000 women across multiple countries, reinforcing its ambition to take Indian MedTech beyond domestic markets.

“Presenting our India-developed Smart Scope® CX to Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BRICS leaders was an immensely proud and emotional moment for us,” said Veena Moktali. “Although we have reached a global platform, our fundamental mission remains unchanged—to help ensure that every woman, irrespective of where she lives, has access to timely and quality screening.”

For Koustubh Naik, the moment represents both recognition and responsibility: an opportunity to take Indian medical technology to more countries and communities.

From Pune to Bharat Mandapam, Periwinkle Technologies is now carrying a larger message: Indian deep-tech can be built for India—and designed to address challenges faced by women around the world.
