Chirag & Chintu Patel
Co-CEOs and Co-Founders of Amneal
Chirag and Chintu’s vision for founding Amneal was inspired by their father, Kanu Patel, an industrial pharmacist who worked as a pharmaceutical regulatory inspector in India. Raised on the Gandhian philosophy of truth and service, Kanu taught his sons to achieve prosperity through hard work and by conducting business with honesty and integrity.
The family immigrated to the United States in 1987, providing Chirag and Chintu with access to higher education and a business environment that fosters and rewards entrepreneurial spirit. Chirag began his business pursuits with several information technology start-ups while Chintu followed in his father’s footsteps as a pharmacist. During his time as a pharmacist, Chintu witnessed firsthand the struggle many patients had in choosing between buying food or their medication. The desire to provide affordable medicine to patients ignited a passion within Chintu, and with his father’s guidance and Chirag’s business savvy, Amneal was born.
Chirag and Chintu have grown the Amneal family, its portfolio of innovative and affordable medicines, and the company’s impact on the world. Family is not a buzz word here, but rather a through-line of our culture that unites, inspires, gives back and succeeds. Today, we’re pursuing a future for Amneal that is focused on what matters most: responsibly helping patients live better lives through high-quality, accessible medications.
