Bangalore Institute of Oncology (BIO) was founded in 1989 as the flagship unit of Banashankari Medical and Oncology Research Center Ltd (BMORC). BMORC, initially incorporated as a Private limited Company on 13 November 1986 , became a public limited company in 1992. It was the first private Comprehensive Cancer Hospital in Bangalore and Karnataka. The idea for such a hospital was initiated and is managed, by like-minded and dedicated cancer specialists who realized that the existing facilities in the government hospitals were not sufficient to meet the demands and the private sector needed to step in.
