This landmark project is valued at Rs 1,000 crore
Sakra World Hospital has appointed Tandem Healthcare, a healthcare-focussed EPC company, to design and build its second state-of-the-art hospital in North Bengaluru. Spanning 6.8 lakh square feet, this 500-bed facility will be a one-of-its-kind green biophilic hospital, incorporating garden lounges, green balconies, planters, arrival canopy and serene lake views to create a healing environment inspired by nature. Set to be completed and operational within 30 months.
This landmark project, valued at Rs 1,000 crore, marks a significant milestone in Sakra’s mission to deliver world-class healthcare powered by Japanese innovation and technology through its collaboration with Secom Medical System and Toyota Tsusho. The new facility will feature G+9 floors and the design will integrate Indo-Japanese architectural elements, blending tradition with modernity.
Tandem Healthcare’s design emphasises sustainability and aesthetics. The building’s east-west orientation optimises natural views while mitigating heat gain through slanted GFRC panels. Slanted openings ensure privacy and natural light, enhancing interior ambience. Green roofs reduce cooling loads, and a combination of aluminium composite panels and low-e glazing creates an energy-efficient, contemporary facade. Semi-open cafés with deep canopies promote natural ventilation, reducing air-conditioning needs.
Yuichi Nagano, MD, Sakra World Hospital said, “This collaboration combines Japanese precision with Tandem’s healthcare facility expertise, ensuring a hospital that sets new benchmarks in clinical excellence and patient care.”
Alok Sharma, Founder and Director, Tandem Healthcare, said, “Tandem believes that healthcare infrastructure must go beyond functionality to inspire healing and trust. This partnership with Sakra will reflect our shared commitment to building not just hospitals, but holistic healing ecosystems that combine cutting-edge technology with sustainable, patient-centric design.”
“We are privileged to partner with Sakra World Hospital to design and construct this groundbreaking facility,” said Ahzam Khan, Director and CEO, Tandem Healthcare. “Our green biophilic design, inspired by the tranquillity of Japanese gardens, integrates sustainability, advanced technology, and patient-centric spaces to create a healing environment. This approach fosters improved well-being, supports post-operative recovery, and reduces stress, delivering an unparalleled healthcare experience.”
The new Sakra World Hospital in Bengaluru, inspired by “A Place of Healing Empowered by Nature,” integrates advanced healthcare with restorative natural elements, featuring garden lounges, green balconies, and lake views. Designed to achieve USGBC LEED Platinum certification, the facility aligns with the UN’s Central Product Classification for sustainable infrastructure, utilizing energy-efficient façades and low-emission materials to minimize its carbon footprint, with compliance overseen by an independent green consultancy.
The new hospital aligns with Sakra’s NABH accreditation and Kaizen approach to safety and quality care. “This facility is a testament to our mission of integrating cutting-edge technology with compassionate care,” said Naoya Matsumi, Deputy Managing Director, Sakra World Hospital. “We aim to enhance treatment outcomes and improve the quality of life for our patients. The second hospital will be a healing retreat located strategically in Bangalore North.”
The new facility complements Sakra’s existing 350-bed tertiary care centre in Marathahalli, advancing the group’s goal to expand by over 1,000 beds in Bengaluru in the coming years. “This facility is a strategic leap forward—not just in scale, but in how healthcare is imagined and delivered,” said Lovekesh Phasu, Group Chief Operating Officer, Sakra World Hospital. “It reinforces our commitment to building infrastructure that advances clinical excellence and puts the patient experience at the centre.”
