Cyrus Poonawalla is currently the 86th richest man in the world, as his wealth shot up to $1.5 billion, especially during the coronavirus pandemic thanks to his Serum Institute of India. His company manufactures some of the world’s most reputed vaccines, and no wonder the vaccine king has finally emerged as one of the fastest-growing billionaires in the world.
