The initiative underscores OPPO’s guiding philosophy of *“Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World,”* with a focus on advancing educational equity and digital inclusion. ### Thailand Pilot Marks Key Milestone As part of the programme, OPPO recently donated 200 tablets to two pilot schools in Thailand—Lampang Kanlayanee School and Rayongwittayakom School—during the Thailand AI and Digital Innovation Practice Day on December 15. Patrick Zhang, Chief Operating Officer of OPPO Thailand, formally handed over the devices, which will support teachers and students in hands-on programming and digital learning. The tablets come preloaded with courses from the *Youth Coding Initiative*, a joint effort by UNESCO and CODEMAO aimed at encouraging safe, inclusive use of technology and expanding access to quality education across Asia and Africa. ### Expanding Access Across Asia and Africa The Thailand donation completes OPPO’s pledge, announced in September 2024, to provide tablets to schools in Thailand, Congo Brazzaville, Kenya, Namibia, and Côte d’Ivoire. Through this collaboration, OPPO and UNESCO are working to strengthen teaching capabilities in emerging technologies—particularly in regions where access to digital tools remains limited. In countries such as Congo Brazzaville, OPPO tablets and integrated coding curricula will serve as foundational resources for sustainable technology education, complemented by peer learning initiatives and coding competitions designed to nurture young talent. In Kenya, Namibia, and Côte d’Ivoire, where hardware shortages have constrained digital education, the initiative is expected to help establish new digital classrooms and broaden equitable access to technology. ### Long-Term Commitment to Youth Empowerment The partnership reflects OPPO’s ongoing commitment to social responsibility, youth empowerment, and digital inclusion. The company stated it will continue to leverage empathetic technology to create meaningful, long-term impact in communities worldwide. *Note: UNESCO does not endorse any product, service, brand, or company.* **Categories:** business --- ### [Kimberly-Clark and UNICEF Partner to Advance Menstrual and Maternal Health for Millions of Women and Girls Across India](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/kimberly-clark-and-unicef-partner-to-advance-menstrual-and-maternal-health-for-millions-of-women-and-girls-across-india/) **Published:** March 15, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, India – March 15:** In honor of International Women’s Day, Kimberly-Clark India and UNICEF India announced a strategic collaboration to strengthen menstrual and maternal health services across India (in states such as Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Gujarat) in alignment with Kimberly-Clark’s vision of delivering *Better Care for a Better World*, the partnership will expand access to essential health services while empowering women and girls through improved knowledge on menstrual and maternal health, strengthened community engagement, and enhanced health systems.

As the country pushes toward a $5 trillion economy by 2027, the education system must evolve to give young people not only knowledge, but practical skills and a strong commitment to sustainability. This integration addresses unemployment rates hovering around 7-8% among graduates while tackling climate vulnerabilities that affect agriculture, water resources, and urban infrastructure. Policies like the National Education Policy 2020 emphasize vocational training, yet they fall short without embedding sustainable practices, risking a workforce unprepared for green transitions. **The Imperative of Skill Development** Skill development develops applied employability skills from theory learned through one’s course of study in an engineering or management program. In order to do this, many engineering and management curriculums have hands on labs (for example – CNC Programming and Machining) allowing the student to learn how to professionally operate a Computer Numerical Control machine used in manufacturing with extremely high accuracy. This acquisition of a higher degree of technical expertise provides an immediate means of employment in manufacturing-related fields such as automotive and aerospace. The development of Artificial Intelligence in Material Science also included courses on how to use algorithms to apply optimal resource allocation techniques to predictively model waste reduction. These factors help to develop problem-solving skills and encourage innovative thinking to align with India’s Government ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ or self-reliance initiative. In the absence of this type of focus, education remains unconnected to market demand and continues to create a digital economy with skills deficiencies. **Embedding Sustainability in Learning** Sustainability education builds awareness of global problems like climate change and shrinking resources. Programs based on the Sustainable Development Goals include modules on affordable clean energy and responsible consumption. For example, a Water Resource Management course teaches conservation methods, pollution control, and integrated watershed planning, and gives hands-on practice in monitoring water quality and designing efficient irrigation systems. This method of teaching helps students understand how humans impact ecological systems, allowing students to form solutions to India’s problem with water scarcity where more than 600 million people live in either high or very high/extreme stress situations. **Synergizing Skills and Sustainability** When the development of skills and sustainability intersects within curricula; that is when true progression will occur. An example of this convergence is illustrated through the Climate Change, Sustainability and Organisations course, which merges theoretical dialogue and practical applications into execution. Through the course modules, we will explore how different sectors (agriculture, energy, etc.) have experienced and will continue to face the consequences of climate change through collective experiences of climate-induced migration and disaster response. Students will have the opportunity to create an action plan utilizing the Integrated Reporting Framework through real-world examples such as sustainable supply chains within the manufacturing sector. Students will develop their skills in strategic planning and creating partnerships, equipping them to be leaders in the movement of organizations to net-zero emissions. As an example of a renewable energy track, the Solar Thermal Engineer for Industrial Process Heat program will provide learners with technical expertise in the design of solar thermal systems for heating applications, combining engineering capabilities with sustainable innovation. Through these integrated models, students will be able to develop the capacity to create resilient communities and economies holistically. **Policy Synergies: Forging Inclusive and Sustainable Growth** The goals of India’s educational policy should include the development of interdisciplinary coursework as well as partnerships between institutions of higher education and industry; both initiatives would be supported through financial incentives. Combining the delivery of vocational education with content linked to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) will encourage young people to become the engines of inclusive economic growth. This synergy will improve employability. More importantly, it will benefit the environment and contribute to a sustainable future for everyone.

Navika Kumar was in conversation with both Sita Pallacholla and Prathibha Kunda. During the discussion, Navika Kumar shared insights from her journey in journalism and leadership. “I never planned anything; I simply went with the flow. I was a girl from a small village in Bihar who moved to Mumbai to work with a financial newspaper and later to Delhi,” she said. “Today, I am the first woman to head two national news channels. Delhi was a very competitive space, but I focused on giving my best. Many believed I wouldn’t last more than a few months, but here I am — more than twenty years later and still going strong. If a girl from a small village in Bihar can do it, so can you.” ![FLO Hyderabad hosts its annual event “Viksit Bharat 2047 – Women leading India’s transformation” to celebrate women’s leadership and grassroots impact](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/q3jtikfcvc.jpg) Speaking about women’s participation in the workforce, Kumar highlighted the need for greater inclusion. “Women constitute nearly 50% of the population, yet only about 27% participate in economic activity. This must change. Each one of us should help bring at least one more woman into the workforce,” she said, adding that women must raise their voices on issues that concern them. Women are great balancers. They balance things well she said On women’s representation in politics, she expressed hope regarding the implementation of the 30% reservation bill and stressed the importance of genuine representation. She noted that political opportunities should go beyond family members of existing politicians. Offering advice to young entrepreneurs, Kumar encouraged women to be bold and ambitious. “Have hunger in your stomach. Take risks, break barriers, and redefine possibilities,” she said. She also emphasized that women must not miss the opportunities presented by emerging sectors. “Women should actively participate in the AI revolution, technology, and financial planning. These are critical areas shaping the future.” The discussion explored the role of women in shaping India’s future as the country moves toward its centenary year of independence in 2047. The event also served as a platform for FLO Hyderabad to present the impact of several initiatives undertaken during the year, highlighting the organisation’s commitment to empowerment through education, skilling, and livelihood support. Under the education initiative, FLO Hyderabad reached 4,187 students through programs on digital literacy, financial literacy, communication skills, AI awareness,—equipping young women with essential life and professional skills. The skilling initiativeimpacted 2,026 women, offering practical training in vocational skills that enable them to be financially independent. A skill center was setup at Bhongir at the beginning of the year to enable the same. FLO Hyderabad also showcased its work on reviving Dokra, the ancient lost-wax metal casting tradition from Adilabad. Through collaborations with artisans from five villages, the initiative has helped generate ₹15 lakh in direct income for over 300 artisans. The project includes documentation, a design catalogue, policy advocacy through a white paper, and an MoU with the ITDA, Utnoor to continue to offer support to artisans. Prathibha Kunda, Chairperson of FLO Hyderabad, said: “When we speak about Viksit Bharat, we often talk about infrastructure, technology, and economic growth. But the real foundation of a developed nation is people—and especially women who are given the chance to learn, earn, and lead. At FLO Hyderabad, we see this transformation up close. A young student discovering her confidence, an artisan reviving a heritage craft, or a woman starting to earn from a skill she never imagined she had—these are the moments that truly define progress. For us, empowerment is not a slogan. It is the quiet, steady work of opening doors so that thousands of women can walk through them with dignity.” — [ ![Business News For Profit](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [International Food and Hospitality Fair AAHAR 2026 Concludes at Bharat Mandapam; Over 1.5 Lakh Visit Five-Day International Food & Hospitality Exhibition](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/international-food-and-hospitality-fair-aahar-2026-concludes-at-bharat-mandapam-over-1-5-lakh-visit-five-day-international-food-hospitality-exhibition/) **Published:** March 15, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![International Food and Hospitality Fair AAHAR 2026 Concludes at Bharat Mandapam; Over 1.5 Lakh Visit Five-Day International Food & Hospitality Exhibition](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/0el6co4jb6.jpeg) **New Delhi, 15 March 2026** The 40th edition of AAHAR 2026, the International Food & Hospitality Fair, concluded on Saturday at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi, drawing strong participation from industry stakeholders, global exhibitors and buyers, **further reinforcing its position as one of Asia’s leading B2B platforms for the food processing and hospitality sectors.** The exhibition witnessed **over 1.5 lakh visitors**, significantly exceeding the pre-event estimate of over one lakh visitors and facilitated **more than 2,800 B2B meetings** between exhibitors and buyers from India and overseas.

Loans under the scheme are provided by Member Lending Institutions, including Scheduled Commercial Banks, Non-Banking Financial Companies and Micro Finance Institutions. Individuals with viable business plans for small enterprises are eligible to apply for loans under the scheme. The loans are categorised into four segments based on the amount required. Under the Shishu category, loans of up to ₹50,000 are provided, while the Kishor category covers loans above ₹50,000 and up to ₹5 lakh. The Tarun category offers loans above ₹5 lakh and up to ₹10 lakh. To encourage successful borrowers, the government introduced a new category called Tarun Plus from October 24, 2024. Under this category, entrepreneurs who have successfully repaid their earlier loans under the Tarun category can avail collateral-free loans ranging from ₹10 lakh to ₹20 lakh. The scheme has played an important role in supporting small businesses, traditional enterprises, handicrafts and agriculture-allied activities. It has also helped women entrepreneurs who often face challenges in accessing credit due to lack of collateral or credit history.

The Union Minister also highlighted the long-pending demand for a well-equipped indoor sports complex in the district. He said the foundation stone has now been laid and construction will begin soon, with the work expected to be completed at the earliest. Kumaraswamy thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports Mansukh Mandaviya for approving the indoor stadium under the Khelo India scheme following his request. “Responding to my request, they sanctioned the stadium for Mandya district under the Khelo India initiative. I will always remember the concern they have shown towards the development of this region,” he said. The Minister also acknowledged the support extended by several companies through their Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.

Conceptualized by artist and social entrepreneur Dr. Beena Unnikrishnan, the three-day showcase will run until March 16, 2026. Inspired by the spiritual legacy of the Hirapur Chausathi Yogini Temple, the exhibition presented a powerful contemporary interpretation of the 64 Yoginis – sacred manifestations of Shakti representing diverse aspects of wisdom, intuition, courage and transformation. The exhibition is notable for featuring the first-ever complete contemporary collection of all 64 Yoginis painted by a single artist, making it a unique artistic and cultural milestone. ![Yogini Tradition Come Alive Through Contemporary Arts](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/onj1smp76n.jpeg) Artist and Social Entrepreneur Dr. Beena Unnikrishnan said that, “The exhibition formed part of the ambitious 64 Yogini Trail, a national artistic journey covering more than 10,000 kilometres across 16 states. Beginning in Chennai and travelling through Kerala and Coimbatore before arriving in Bhubaneswar, the project seeks to bring India’s ancient sacred feminine traditions into modern cultural dialogue through contemporary visual expression.” Visitors engaged with the series of 64 paintings and also viewed the documentary Y64: Whispers of the Unseen, which explores the spiritual and cultural narratives surrounding Yogini worship. Conceived as a non-commercial public initiative, the exhibition remained open to visitors free of charge and none of the artworks were placed for sale, emphasising the intent to make Yogini heritage accessible to a wider audience. ![Yogini Tradition Come Alive Through Contemporary Arts](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/f96hlso1g1.jpeg) One of the highlights of the exhibition was the painting of Mahamaya, inspired by the sacred tradition of the Hirapur Yogini Temple. The artwork symbolically represents the cosmic force of creation, transformation and divine feminine power while celebrating Odisha’s rich spiritual heritage. Speaking on the occasion, Debjani Bhuyan, Deputy Director of the Odia Language, Literature and Culture Department and Secretary of the Odisha Lalit Kala Akademi, praised the concept behind the exhibition. “This is a very unique concept. As we know, the Hirapur Chausathi Yogini Temple is one of the four surviving 64 Yogini temples in India, and it is heartening to see an art exhibition inspired by this remarkable heritage. Each artwork in the exhibition carries its own theme and narrative, reflecting the spiritual and cultural depth of the Yogini tradition. I am confident that this exhibition will attract the interest of art lovers, archaeologists and historians who are keen to explore and understand more about the divine feminine energies represented by the Devis,” she said. Founded by Dr. Beena Unnikrishnan, the Kankali Trust for Arts and Cultural Economic Development continues to promote artistic traditions, empower underrepresented creative communities and encourage dialogue around gender inclusivity and cultural heritage. With its Bhubaneswar chapter drawing wide appreciation, Ekaa – The One continues its mission of reclaiming and celebrating India’s sacred feminine legacy through contemporary art, storytelling and public engagement.

The two-day flagship event, which concludes on Sunday, has grown into one of the most anticipated research exhibitions, bringing together researchers, industry leaders, policymakers and students to explore advances in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, algorithms, robotics and digital public infrastructure. ![IIIT Hyderabad Trust in Technology Takes Centre Stage at IIIT Hyderabad’s 25th R&D Showcase](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/y3exl1xzth.jpeg) The R&D Showcase is the institute’s major annual exhibition where faculty and students present their latest research projects, prototypes and innovations to academia, industry and the public. Themed “Trust in Technology – Security, Privacy and Transparency,” the event features over 400 research posters, demos and prototypes from 29 research centres, enabling visitors to interact directly with researchers and witness how fundamental research is translated into real-world applications. The programme included spotlight sessions by the Centre for Security, Theory and Algorithmic Research (CSTAR) and the Cyber Manthan Centre (CMC), an inaugural keynote by Shivkumar Kalyanaraman, CEO of the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF), and a panel discussion on “Building Trust in the Indian Cyberspace: Privacy, Security and Transparency in the Era of Emerging Technologies.” ![IIIT Hyderabad Trust in Technology Takes Centre Stage at IIIT Hyderabad’s 25th R&D Showcase](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/4bfy0imb5v.jpeg) Delivering the keynote address, Dr Kalyanaraman said the ANRF serves as India’s primary organisation for funding and supporting research, similar to the National Science Foundation in the United States. Established under the Anusandhan National Research Foundation Act, 2023, it replaces the earlier Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB). He highlighted several funding opportunities for universities and colleges, noting that ANRF aims to strengthen India’s research ecosystem by supporting scientific and technological research across institutions. The foundation promotes collaboration between academia, industry and government, strengthens research culture in universities—particularly state universities—and supports high-impact research in fields such as artificial intelligence, space, healthcare, climate science and engineering. Dr Kalyanaraman also shared plans for several upcoming mission-mode programmes under the MAHA (Mission for Advancement in High-Impact Areas) framework, including MAHA Drones, MAHA G, MAHA Water, and MAHA Leapfrog Demonstrators for Social Innovation. These initiatives aim to address national challenges through collaborative research involving universities, industry and government laboratories, focusing on areas such as drone technologies, next-generation communication systems including 6G, sustainable water management and socially impactful innovations in healthcare, energy and education. Prof. Sandeep K. Shukla, Director of IIIT Hyderabad, said: “The R&D Showcase reflects the spirit of inquiry and innovation that drives IIIT Hyderabad. It is encouraging to see our researchers engaging with industry, policymakers and the wider public to translate research into meaningful societal impact.” Emphasising the theme of the event, he added: “Technology shouldn’t control us; instead, we should control technology.” A panel discussion on “Building Trust in the Indian Cyberspace: Privacy, Security and Transparency in the Era of Emerging Technologies” was moderated by Girish Varma of IIIT Hyderabad. The panellists included: P. R. Lakshmi Eswari, Centre Head, Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Hyderabad; Krishna Sastry Pendyala, Partner – Cybersecurity, Ernst & Young; Deepak Kumar, Director, Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology; M. V. Panduranga Rao, Centre for Cryptography and Cybersecurity, Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad. The discussion highlighted critical concerns around cybersecurity and digital trust. Dr Lakshmi Eswari noted that security is often treated as a secondary priority during product design, rather than being integrated from the outset. Prof. Panduranga Rao pointed to a significant shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals and emphasised the gap between academic curricula and industry requirements. Krishna Sastry Pendyala highlighted the scale of cybercrime in India, noting that financial losses from cyber threats run into tens of thousands of crores annually and that major breaches—such as the theft of hundreds of millions of medical records—raise serious concerns about data security and digital trust. The panel stressed the need for greater awareness, stronger cybersecurity frameworks, skilled manpower and a comprehensive national cybersecurity strategy. Alongside exhibits in AI, robotics, data science and cybersecurity, the showcase hosted industry–research confluence sessions on themes such as Cybersecurity and Privacy in the AI Era and AI for Theory and Theory for AI, a startup showcase and an industry roundtable on Agentic AI. One of the highlights of the exhibition is an autonomous self-driving wheelchair, designed to enhance mobility for persons with disabilities. Equipped with 3D LiDAR for environmental perception and powered by Jetson Orin running ROS2, the wheelchair enables intelligent navigation with minimal user input. Advanced path planning and obstacle-avoidance systems allow safe and efficient movement in diverse environments. Visitors also saw innovative robotics projects such as flapping-wing robots and spin drones, alongside architectural models demonstrating traditional earthquake-resilient housing systems such as Kath Kuni houses of Himachal Pradesh, Adobe houses of Rajasthan, and Ikra houses of Assam. These models illustrate how traditional Indian architecture used local materials and ingenious construction techniques to build earthquake-resilient homes long before modern engineering technologies existed. Kath Kuni houses, for example, use alternating layers of wood and stone that absorb seismic shocks; Adobe structures rely on thick mud-brick walls that distribute stress; and Ikra houses use flexible bamboo frameworks that sway during earthquakes rather than collapse. Sunday’s programme will feature Excitement of Research (ExOR), introducing visiting undergraduate students to research pathways, and a Faculty Futures Roundtable on research funding. The event will conclude with a patent felicitation ceremony at Research Street, recognising IIIT Hyderabad researchers for their innovation and intellectual property contributions. The institute has received over 70 patents. Now in its 25th year, the R&D Showcase has evolved into one of the institute’s flagship platforms for presenting cutting-edge research and fostering collaboration between academia, industry and government. 300 plus industries and students of several colleges are expected to visit and interact with students behind those research projects.

He was speaking at the international conference titled “Vascular Voyages – Fem Pop: Mystery to Mastery”, organised to enhance awareness on vascular diseases and introduce advanced treatment techniques to doctors. The three-day conference saw participation from several vascular specialists from India and abroad. A special one-day hands-on training workshop will also be conducted at KIMS Hospitals, Secunderabad. ![Training Workshops Are Crucial for Young Doctors: Dr. Bhaskar Rao](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/oyji030otz.jpeg) The conference was organised by the KIMS Institute of Vascular Sciences and the Department of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, Hyderabad. Addressing the gathering as the chief guest, Dr Bhaskar Rao said it was a matter of pride that vascular surgeons and specialists from different countries had participated in the conference. He noted that leading experts in vascular medicine shared their experiences on recent developments, modern surgical techniques, and advanced endovascular treatment methods. Special focus was given to the latest technologies being used in the treatment of femoropopliteal artery diseases. Such knowledge-sharing platforms, he said, help technology evolve further and benefit the medical community. Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Narendranath, Organising Chairman of the conference and Clinical Director of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery at KIMS Group of Hospitals, said that peripheral vascular diseases are increasing due to factors such as diabetes, smoking, hypertension and sedentary lifestyles. He explained that these conditions reduce blood flow to the legs and feet, leading to symptoms such as pain while walking and non-healing wounds. If not treated in time, severe cases may even require amputation of the affected limb. The scientific programme of the conference included academic sessions, panel discussions, case-based discussions and deliberations on advanced treatment techniques. Live demonstrations were also conducted in the endovascular suite and operation theatres, which organisers said would serve as valuable learning opportunities for young doctors and medical residents. During the live workshop at KIMS Hospitals, experts will demonstrate complex vascular surgeries, open bypass procedures and advanced endovascular interventions. Participants will also receive simulation-based hands-on training, organisers said. The organisers added that such conferences help strengthen collaboration among vascular specialists and enhance awareness of modern treatment options for peripheral vascular diseases, ultimately enabling better care for patients.

I was born through theatre; before FTII, my journey began here, and I have always remained deeply fond of it. I’ve come here many times, and today I’m looking forward to experiencing something truly special.”* Actor **Mandira Bedi** added, *“It’s a beautiful, spectacular production; a true search for truth, which has so many forms and expressions. The storytelling through visuals and dance is remarkable. It’s the kind of experience where each viewing reveals something new, depending on what you take away from it. The production, costumes, and choreography are all absolutely outstanding.”* ![Mumbai Witnesses Grand Premiere of Tesseract: The Geometry of Truth at Jamshed Bhabha Theatre, NCPA](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/5iu7brb1ex.jpeg) *Tesseract: The Geometry of Truth* is a breathtaking theatrical experience that traces the arc of human thought—from the first spark of awareness to the questions shaping our collective future. Presented on a cinematic scale, the production combines expansive LED environments, augmented reality elements, immersive soundscapes, and precision choreography to create a world where ideas are not simply explained but deeply felt. The story unfolds inside a vast “living archive” where eras emerge and dissolve seamlessly as belief, reason, creativity, courage, invention, and consequence collide. Philosophers debate truth, artists transform emotion into meaning, revolutionaries challenge the status quo, journalists fight noise with facts, and visionaries reshape the world while confronting the cost of progress. Anchored by lead performances from Megan Murray and Pia Sutaria and brought to life by a powerful ensemble of 100 dancers, the production blends movement, dialogue, and visual storytelling at a scale associated with major global theatrical spectacles.

Long considered a small but essential part of the healthcare ecosystem, the sector is now drawing major policy attention and investor interest as the country works toward a projected **$30 billion market by 2030**. Industry analysts say the growth will be driven by a combination of rising healthcare demand, government incentives for domestic manufacturing, and increasing adoption of advanced medical technologies. ### A Market on a Strong Growth Path India’s medical devices market is currently estimated at around **$12–14 billion**, but the sector has been expanding at a **double-digit annual growth rate of roughly 15%**. If this pace continues, the market could more than double within the next five years. Several structural factors are supporting this expansion. India’s population of more than 1.4 billion is aging, lifestyle diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular conditions are rising, and access to healthcare services is improving across smaller cities. Together, these trends are increasing the demand for diagnostic equipment, implants, consumables, and digital medical technologies. Hospitals and diagnostic centers are also investing more heavily in modern equipment as healthcare infrastructure grows in both public and private sectors. ### Government Push for Domestic Manufacturing A major catalyst for growth has been the government’s push to reduce import dependence and strengthen local manufacturing. India currently imports **around 70–80% of its medical devices**, particularly high-value products such as imaging equipment, implants, and advanced diagnostic systems. To address this gap, the government has introduced initiatives such as the **Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for medical devices**, along with the creation of **dedicated medical device parks** in several states. These measures aim to attract global manufacturers, encourage domestic production, and create a stronger supply chain ecosystem. Policy support is also helping the industry move beyond low-value consumables toward more sophisticated products such as diagnostic imaging systems, surgical equipment, and high-precision implants. ### Growing Investment and Global Partnerships Global medical technology companies are increasingly looking at India as both a manufacturing hub and a major growth market. International firms are expanding local production facilities and forming partnerships with Indian manufacturers to serve both domestic and export markets. At the same time, Indian startups are entering the field with innovations in digital health, AI-enabled diagnostics, and affordable medical technologies designed for emerging markets. Venture capital investment in health technology has also accelerated, with investors backing companies developing portable diagnostic devices, wearable monitoring systems, and telemedicine platforms. ### Opportunities in Tier-2 and Tier-3 Cities While metropolitan hospitals have traditionally driven demand for advanced medical equipment, the next wave of growth is expected to come from **Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities**. Healthcare infrastructure is expanding rapidly in these regions as private hospital chains and diagnostic networks move beyond major urban centers. Government health insurance programs and rising middle-class incomes are also increasing healthcare access. As a result, demand for imaging equipment, point-of-care diagnostic devices, and affordable medical technologies is rising across smaller cities and semi-urban areas. ### Challenges Remain Despite strong growth prospects, the sector still faces several challenges. Industry leaders often cite **regulatory complexity, limited domestic component manufacturing, and price controls on certain medical devices** as areas that need further policy clarity. High research and development costs also make it difficult for smaller companies to scale advanced technology production. Supply chain constraints and reliance on imported components remain another concern for manufacturers aiming to build a fully integrated domestic ecosystem. ### The Road to 2030 Even with these challenges, the long-term outlook for India’s medical devices sector remains optimistic. If current growth momentum continues, analysts believe the [industry could reach **$30 billion by 2030**](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/business/india-aims-to-achieve-30-billion-medical-devices-market-by-2030/), positioning India as one of the fastest-growing medical device markets in the world. For policymakers, the sector offers an opportunity to strengthen healthcare infrastructure while building a globally competitive manufacturing base. For investors and technology companies, it represents a market where demand, innovation, and policy support are beginning to align. The coming decade will determine whether India can turn this potential into a robust medical technology ecosystem that serves both domestic healthcare needs and global markets.

Against this backdrop, internal auditors are playing an increasingly strategic role in helping organisations anticipate risks and strengthen governance frameworks, a theme that was highlighted at the Annual Conference 2026 of the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) India – Calcutta Chapter held **on March 14. The event brought together internal audit professionals, risk practitioners and industry leaders to deliberate on the expanding role of internal audit in strengthening corporate governance.** ![Geopolitical shifts, technology disruptions reshaping risk landscape for organisations - IIA Calcutta Chapter](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/r6z2en3knv.jpeg) The conference was formally inaugurated by Mr. Krishnan Venugopal, President, IIA India. The inaugural session was graced by Mr. Neeraj Bansal, Head – India Global, KPMG, as the Chief Guest, who shared perspectives on evolving global risks, board expectations, and the importance of resilient control frameworks. “India is no longer an isolated economy. Businesses today operate across multiple geographies and are influenced by global geopolitical developments, cyber risks and rapidly evolving technologies. In such an environment, internal auditors are expected to continuously monitor these risks and help organisations strengthen their governance and control frameworks,” said Abin Mukhopadhyay, President, IIA India – Calcutta chapter. ![Geopolitical shifts, technology disruptions reshaping risk landscape for organisations - IIA Calcutta Chapter](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/jn16acqwy0.jpeg) The conference was centred on the theme “Internal Audit: Control – Risk – Governance and Beyond,” reflecting the rapidly expanding scope and strategic relevance of internal audit in today’s complex and interconnected global environment. Mukhopadhyay noted that the internal audit function has undergone a significant transformation in recent years. While internal auditors were traditionally focused on verifying transactions and ensuring compliance, they are expected to assess emerging risks, strengthen governance systems, and play a broader role in the holistic growth of an organisation now adopting a risk-based approach. “At the same time, technology itself is emerging as a major risk area. Fraudsters are increasingly using sophisticated tools to generate fake documentation or launch phishing attacks. Organisations therefore need stronger controls and continuous monitoring mechanisms to protect themselves,” Mukhopadhyay said. ![Geopolitical shifts, technology disruptions reshaping risk landscape for organisations - IIA Calcutta Chapter](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7cmakf87na.jpeg) He also emphasised the need for specialised professionals and sustained reskilling as the risk environment evolves rapidly. “The pace of change has accelerated dramatically. Earlier technology cycles evolved over a decade, today they can shift within months. This makes continuous learning and professional training essential for internal auditors to remain effective,” he observed. The conference brought together experts from all over India who spoke on the paradigm shift of internal audit from compliance assurance to a strategic advisory role. The technical sessions explored how internal audit must evolve beyond traditional assurance roles to become forward-looking, insight-driven partners to management and Boards. There were two panel discussions which were chaired by Industry and Professional firm experts, and was hugely appreciated by participants. A souvenir is also published on this occasion with articles from eminent professional experts, under the editorship of **Mr. Suman Chaudhuri ,** Past President and BOG Member .

The two-day flagship event, which concludes on Sunday, has grown into one of the most anticipated research exhibitions, bringing together researchers, industry leaders, policymakers and students to explore advances in artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, algorithms, robotics and digital public infrastructure. The R&D Showcase is the institute’s major annual exhibition where faculty and students present their latest research projects, prototypes and innovations to academia, industry and the public. ![Technology shouldn’t control us; instead, we should control technology – Prof. Sandeep Shukla, Director, IIIT Hyderabad](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/h0axtezxkc.jpg) Themed **“Trust in Technology – Security, Privacy and Transparency,”** the event features **over 400 research posters, demos and prototypes from 29 research centres**, enabling visitors to interact directly with researchers and witness how fundamental research is translated into real-world applications. The programme included spotlight sessions by the **Centre for Security, Theory and Algorithmic Research (CSTAR)** and the **Cyber Manthan Centre (CMC)**, an inaugural keynote by **Shivkumar Kalyanaraman**, CEO of the Anusandhan National Research Foundation (ANRF), and a panel discussion on **“Building Trust in the Indian Cyberspace: Privacy, Security and Transparency in the Era of Emerging Technologies.”** Delivering the keynote address, Dr Kalyanaraman said the ANRF serves as India’s primary organisation for funding and supporting research, similar to the National Science Foundation in the United States. Established under the **Anusandhan National Research Foundation Act, 2023**, it replaces the earlier Science and Engineering Research Board (SERB). ![Technology shouldn’t control us; instead, we should control technology – Prof. Sandeep Shukla, Director, IIIT Hyderabad](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/4275jas550.JPG) He highlighted several funding opportunities for universities and colleges, noting that ANRF aims to strengthen India’s research ecosystem by supporting scientific and technological research across institutions. The foundation promotes collaboration between academia, industry and government, strengthens research culture in universities—particularly state universities—and supports high-impact research in fields such as artificial intelligence, space, healthcare, climate science and engineering. Dr Kalyanaraman also shared plans for several upcoming mission-mode programmes under the **MAHA (Mission for Advancement in High-Impact Areas)** framework, including **MAHA Drones**, **MAHA G**, **MAHA Water**, and **MAHA Leapfrog Demonstrators for Social Innovation**. These initiatives aim to address national challenges through collaborative research involving universities, industry and government laboratories, focusing on areas such as drone technologies, next-generation communication systems including 6G, sustainable water management and socially impactful innovations in healthcare, energy and education. Prof. **Sandeep K. Shukla**, Director of IIIT Hyderabad, said: “The R&D Showcase reflects the spirit of inquiry and innovation that drives IIIT Hyderabad. It is encouraging to see our researchers engaging with industry, policymakers and the wider public to translate research into meaningful societal impact.” Emphasising the theme of the event, he added: “Technology shouldn’t control us; instead, we should control technology.” A panel discussion on **“Building Trust in the Indian Cyberspace: Privacy, Security and Transparency in the Era of Emerging Technologies”** was moderated by **Girish Varma** of IIIT Hyderabad. The panellists included: **P. R. Lakshmi Eswari**, Centre Head, Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Hyderabad; **Krishna Sastry Pendyala**, Partner – Cybersecurity, Ernst & Young; **Deepak Kumar**, Director, Institute for Development and Research in Banking Technology; **M. V. Panduranga Rao**, Centre for Cryptography and Cybersecurity, Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad The discussion highlighted critical concerns around cybersecurity and digital trust. Dr Lakshmi Eswari noted that security is often treated as a secondary priority during product design, rather than being integrated from the outset. Prof. Panduranga Rao pointed to a significant shortage of skilled cybersecurity professionals and emphasised the gap between academic curricula and industry requirements. Krishna Sastry Pendyala highlighted the scale of cybercrime in India, noting that financial losses from cyber threats run into tens of thousands of crores annually and that major breaches—such as the theft of hundreds of millions of medical records—raise serious concerns about data security and digital trust. The panel stressed the need for greater awareness, stronger cybersecurity frameworks, skilled manpower and a comprehensive national cybersecurity strategy. Alongside exhibits in AI, robotics, data science and cybersecurity, the showcase hosted industry–research confluence sessions on themes such as **Cybersecurity and Privacy in the AI Era** and **AI for Theory and Theory for AI**, a startup showcase and an industry roundtable on **Agentic AI**. One of the highlights of the exhibition is an **autonomous self-driving wheelchair**, designed to enhance mobility for persons with disabilities. Equipped with **3D LiDAR for environmental perception and powered by Jetson Orin running ROS2**, the wheelchair enables intelligent navigation with minimal user input. Advanced path planning and obstacle-avoidance systems allow safe and efficient movement in diverse environments. Visitors also saw innovative robotics projects such as **flapping-wing robots and spin drones**, alongside architectural models demonstrating traditional earthquake-resilient housing systems such as **Kath Kuni houses of Himachal Pradesh**, **Adobe houses of Rajasthan**, and **Ikra houses of Assam**. These models illustrate how traditional Indian architecture used local materials and ingenious construction techniques to build earthquake-resilient homes long before modern engineering technologies existed. Kath Kuni houses, for example, use alternating layers of wood and stone that absorb seismic shocks; Adobe structures rely on thick mud-brick walls that distribute stress; and Ikra houses use flexible bamboo frameworks that sway during earthquakes rather than collapse. Sunday’s programme will feature **Excitement of Research (ExOR)**, introducing visiting undergraduate students to research pathways, and a **Faculty Futures Roundtable** on research funding. The event will conclude with a **patent felicitation ceremony at Research Street**, recognising IIIT Hyderabad researchers for their innovation and intellectual property contributions. The institute has received **over 70 patents**. Now in its **25th year**, the R&D Showcase has evolved into one of the institute’s flagship platforms for presenting cutting-edge research and fostering collaboration between academia, industry and government 300 plus industries and students of several colleges are expected to visit and interact with students behind those research projects.

Today, the company announced the public debut of its technology, fundraising, and several major commercial milestones. Its superconducting optoelectronic technology is backed with a $14 million seed round led by Bison Ventures with participation from notable firms including Matchstick Ventures and Range Ventures, as well as angel investors like Mark Leslie, Adam Pritzker, and Ivan Vendrov. Great Sky has also passed major technical milestones including the tape-out of its chips that deliver orders-of-magnitude improvements in efficiency and performance over today’s silicon. For decades, researchers have described an idealized computing paradigm—one that combines ultra-low-temperature superconducting computation, high-bandwidth optical communication, and brain-inspired architectural principles—as a theoretically superior alternative to conventional approaches to AI. The team has steadily made progress to prove the components, and they have now been integrated into complete neural networks. Advances in circuit concepts, manufacturing capabilities, and modeling breakthroughs have made the moment possible. Great Sky is in a unique position in the world to bring this long-imagined architecture into deployment. The technology and company are premised on 12 years of research at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), where the team produced 23 peer-reviewed publications and eight patents. The technology arrives as a purpose-built compute platform for the next era of AI that requires high-throughput, low-latency computation for use cases like intelligent processing of spoken language, continuous video analysis, and large-scale multimodal models. “AI’s current stack—transformers running on GPUs—has brought tremendous advances. But at the foundation, the current approach is mismatched to the needs of efficient, scalable AI,” said Jeff Shainline, co-founder and CEO of Great Sky. “By constructing new hardware that enables more sophisticated architectures and algorithms while performing operations near the physical limits of speed and energy efficiency, we can transition to a completely different roadmap for scaling that doesn’t require hundreds of billions in capex and gigawatt data centers. There’s a vast, new space to explore.” **Breaking the Performance Plateau** Across the industry, researchers and practitioners have pointed out the looming limits of GPU scaling: diminishing returns on model size, unsustainable energy demands, and latency ceilings that impede agentic and multimodal workloads. Morgan Stanley analysts have cautioned that AI demand could leave the US with a power deficit of as much as 13 gigawatts by as early as 2028. Great Sky’s neuroscience-inspired architecture overcomes those limits by integrating three technological pillars: - **Superconducting compute** Enables extreme energy efficiency and unprecedented performance at cryogenic temperatures. Instead of digitally computing what neurons do, Great Sky builds circuits that simply behave like neurons. - **High-bandwidth optical connectivity** Achieves communication speed and efficiency far surpassing what electrical interconnects allow, eliminating one of the largest bottlenecks in AI systems. Great Sky sends optical signals as faint as a single photon, achieving the lowest latency and energy usage physically possible. - **Semiconductor circuitry** Bridges the gap between electrons and photons, performing amplification, light emission, and control logic. The result is a system that behaves more like a brain than a conventional computer and with performance characteristics that unlock entirely new classes of AI applications. Architectures supported by these pillars map naturally to multimodal and continuous-stream AI workloads. “AI is a domain with tremendous promise, while quantum computing is exciting because it introduces new devices and information-processing concepts. We use many of the same devices as quantum technologies – superconducting circuits, single-photon detectors – but we use them for classical, analog computation in a parallel, distributed architecture, which is ideal for AI,” said Shainline. “And unlike quantum computers, our systems are highly resilient to noise, can operate at much higher temperatures than superconducting qubits, and are broadly applicable to any application that benefits from intelligence.” Great Sky pushes brain-inspired computing further than prior approaches. By co-locating memory and processing, Great Sky enables high-speed programmability as well as learning algorithms that support on-device adaptation, so systems can learn from new data streams without constant retraining cycles. This tighter coupling of memory and learning also improves stability and alignment, making it easier to shape behavior through reinforcement signals and constraints as models update over time. Additionally, by leveraging superconducting and photonic device physics rather than relying on continuing to scale down to few-nanometer transistors, this hardware can be manufactured at much lower cost than today’s GPUs while taking advantage of the capabilities of US foundries. **Built for the Future of AI: Real-Time Multimodal and AI-Native Infrastructure** Great Sky’s first-generation of chips has shown the company’s performance gains with immediate and long-term breakthrough use cases in commercial, defense, and energy sectors. For instance, when performing video analysis, Great Sky’s approach processes over 60 million video frames per second with orders of magnitude less energy per video analyzed than a conventional model running on today’s GPUs, which typically process video at 30 frames per second or less. “Great Sky is rethinking compute from first principles by building hardware inspired by the architecture of the human brain,” said Ari Wright, principal at Bison Ventures. “They are setting out to enable forms of intelligence that feel inherently human, while achieving speeds and energy efficiencies traditional architectures can’t approach. At Bison, we look for visionary founders pursuing non-incremental, deep technical innovation with the potential to transform the world as we know it. Great Sky exemplifies that.” The company is manufacturing its technology in a robust, scalable process already evidenced through multiple successful tape-outs. Long term, Great Sky will develop multi-modular cognitive systems created by tiling wafer-scale networks with an advanced fiber-optic interconnection system. These will unlock supercomputers with more neurons and synapses than the human brain, operating a million times faster than biologics and far beyond today’s largest GPU clusters. Great Sky’s progress reflects over a decade of foundational research spanning superconducting materials, optical networking, cryogenic system engineering, and novel AI-native architectures. The company was founded by CEO Jeff Shainline, CTO Jeff Chiles, VP of Fabrication Saeed Khan, and VP of Architecture Bryce Primavera — electronics, optics, and physics PhDs and former NIST researchers who have spent the last 12 years building this technology. As part of the news, Tom Biegala, Founding Partner at Bison Ventures, and Mark Wade, CEO and cofounder of Ayar Labs, will join its Board.

(AWS), an Amazon.com, Inc. company (NASDAQ: AMZN), and Cerebras Systems today announced a collaboration that will, in the coming months, deliver the fastest AI inference solutions available for generative AI applications and LLM workloads. The solution, to be deployed on Amazon Bedrock in AWS data centers, combines AWS Trainium-powered servers, Cerebras CS-3 systems, and Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) networking. Later this year, AWS will also offer leading open-source LLMs and Amazon Nova using Cerebras hardware. “Inference is where AI delivers real value to customers, but speed remains a critical bottleneck for demanding workloads like real-time coding assistance and interactive applications,” said David Brown, Vice President, Compute & ML Services, AWS. “What we’re building with Cerebras solves that: by splitting the inference workload across Trainium and CS-3, and connecting them with Amazon’s Elastic Fabric Adapter, each system does what it’s best at. The result will be inference that’s an order of magnitude faster and higher performance than what’s available today.” “Partnering with AWS to build a disaggregated inference solution will bring the fastest inference to a global customer base,” said Andrew Feldman, Founder and CEO of Cerebras Systems. “Every enterprise around the world will be able to benefit from blisteringly fast inference within their existing AWS environment.” **How It Works: Inference Disaggregation** The Trainium + CS-3 solution enables “inference disaggregation,” a technique which separates AI inference into two stages: prompt processing, or “prefill,” and output generation, or “decode.” These two stages have profoundly different computational characteristics. Prefill is natively parallel, computationally intensive, and requires moderate memory bandwidth. Decode, on the other hand, is inherently serial, computationally light, and memory bandwidth intensive. Decode typically represents the majority of inference time in these scenarios because each output token must be generated sequentially. Because each stage has a different computational challenge, they each benefit from different compute architectures and low-latency, high-bandwidth EFA networking between them. By strategically disaggregating the inference problem — with Trainium optimized for prefill and the Cerebras CS-3 optimized for decode — the two different computational challenges can be optimized in a specialized way. Built on the AWS Nitro System — the foundation of AWS’s secure, high-performance cloud infrastructure — the new solution will ensure that Cerebras CS-3 systems and Trainium-powered instances operate with the same security, isolation, and operational consistency customers expect from AWS. **AWS Trainium for Prefill and Cerebras CS-3 for Decode** Trainium is Amazon’s purpose-built AI chip, designed to deliver scalable performance and cost efficiency for training and inference across a broad range of generative AI workloads. Two of the world’s leading AI labs—Anthropic and OpenAI—are committed to Trainium. Anthropic has named AWS its primary training partner and is using Trainium to train and deploy its models, while OpenAI will consume 2 gigawatts of Trainium capacity through AWS infrastructure to support demand for Stateful Runtime Environment, frontier models, and other advanced workloads. Since its recent release, Trainium3 has seen strong customer adoption, with organizations across industries committing significant capacity. Cerebras’ CS-3 is the world’s fastest AI inference system. It delivers thousands of times greater memory bandwidth than the fastest GPU. As reasoning models now represent a majority of inference to compute and generate more tokens per request as they “think” through problems, the need to accelerate this portion of the workflow has grown accordingly. OpenAI, Cognition, Mistral, and others use Cerebras to accelerate their most demanding workloads, especially agentic coding where developer productivity is constrained by inference speed. In the disaggregated solution, CS-3 will be fully dedicated to decoding acceleration, enabling dramatically higher capacity for fast output tokens. With Trainium handling prefill, the CS-3 handling decode operations, and high-speed EFA networking connecting them, each processor will deliver maximum token capacity for its focused part of the workload.

(Nasdaq: CHCI) (“Comstock”, “CHCI”, or the “Company”), a leading asset manager, developer, and operator of mixed-use and transit-oriented properties in the Washington, D.C. region, today announced the official launch of its Data Center Platform (“DCP”) through its entry into two separate arrangements with strategic partners to pursue the development of large-scale data center campuses across land parcels located in Oklahoma and the Mid-Atlantic region. In both arrangements, the land is either owned or controlled by our strategic partners, with the Company leveraging its decades of experience securing entitlements and executing large-scale real estate and infrastructure developments to benefit each of these unique, value-add opportunities. “We are pleased to announce Comstock’s entry into the high-growth data center market and participation in one of the real estate industry’s most exciting and rewarding sectors,” said Christopher Clemente, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Comstock. “The rapid growth of AI has caused data centers to be among the world’s most coveted assets, driven by a lack of supply and unprecedented demand. In combining our vast experience with securing entitlements and designing, developing, and operating large-scale developments with the land rights and other critical resources of our strategic partners, both ventures represent low-risk opportunities to generate new, and potentially significant, revenue streams in the years ahead. As always, we remain focused on maintaining our pristine balance sheet and will continue to focus on delivering extraordinary results for all stakeholders.” Further details on each data center pursuit are as follows: ***Oklahoma – Jericho Energy Ventures*** The Company has recently entered into a letter of intent to establish a joint venture with Jericho Energy Ventures, Inc. (TSXV: JEV; OTCID: JROOF; FRA: JLM) (“Jericho”), a diversified energy company that is harnessing its robust infrastructure in Oklahoma to deliver scalable energy solutions. The joint venture will focus on assembling a strategic portfolio of land that integrates approximately 18,000 acres of Jericho’s subsurface land and energy assets with surface land interests, capitalizing on Jericho’s direct access to an abundance of natural gas resources that can be utilized to deliver low-cost, high-performance power solutions and potential carbon sequestration with the capability to support the development of large-scale AI data center campuses. Pursuant to terms of the pertinent agreements, and to further align the party’s joint interests, Comstock made a $1.5 million initial investment in Jericho through a non-brokered private placement. In return, Comstock received 25,684,932 variable voting shares1 of Jericho, representing approximately 7% of Jericho’s 300+ million shares outstanding, as well as warrants to purchase up to 12,842,466 additional variable voting shares at an exercise price of $0.20 CAD that are exercisable for a period of 24 months from the date of issuance. In addition, given Mr. Clemente’s vast experience with building and scaling large real estate developments, capital markets expertise, and successful track record with executing strategic partnerships, Jericho recently appointed Mr. Clemente to its board of directors. ***Mid-Atlantic*** The Company has recently entered into an amended and restated asset management agreement with an affiliate entity of Comstock Partners, LC, (“CP”) a private entity controlled by Mr. Clemente and family members, to provide specific data center site development services for parcels located in the Mid-Atlantic region (the “Property”). Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will provide site-specific services for a fixed monthly fee as it pursues the necessary entitlements for the proposed development of the Property as a data center campus. Consistent with the Company’s existing asset management agreements with CP, the Company will generate monthly asset management fee revenue for services provided as well as supplemental incentive fee revenue, calculated as a fixed percentage of the net profit recognized by the affiliate entity landowner, upon the sale of the parcels. No capital investment is required to be made by the Company. The parcels are currently the subject of a Purchase and Sale Agreement whereby the purchaser, a leading developer of data center campuses, will acquire the parcels upon securing applicable entitlements and power supply agreements. Contingent upon the ultimate sale of the Property to the data center developer, the Company would also receive additional fees for development services that will be provided by the Company over a four-year period. The Company’s development and entitlement expertise will be instrumental in unlocking the Property’s data center potential, which at full build-out could deliver upwards of 900 megawatts of power.

Designed at the company’s Seoul studio, the collection explores underground online subculture through a sharply constructed anti-fashion lens. The capsule centers on heavyweight cotton hoodies, distressed shirting, tartan wools, and leather and metal accessories. Spray-painted slogans such as “EXIT SOCIETY 100% NEET GOD” and “HIKKIKIMORI CONDITION” frame the collection’s central tension: hyper-visibility and withdrawal coexisting in the same silhouette. These distressed garments function as an anti-fashion uniform with elevated details: chain stitching at the shoulders and neckline, pigment surfaced treatments, and hand-finished sprayed and splattered paint. HIKKI PUNKS EXIT SOCIETY is intended for what Remilia describes as ‘network aristocracy’: artists, coders, traders, and digital natives of obscure financial means, whose cultural identity rejects traditional institutions in favor of decentralized, guerrilla scenes. Each piece serves as a wearable manifesto for online dissidents, as a badge of membership in their borderless underground network. For the collection launch, Remilia collaborated with Shoichi Aoki, founder of seminal Harajuku street style chronicle FRUiTS Magazine. Shot in the condemned Eul-jiro neighborhood of Seoul, Aoki’s photography places the collection within the lineage of youth-driven street documentation, reinforcing its subcultural sensibility. The photos will be released in a 60-page lookbook-artbook. A print version will be included with initial orders available direct-to-consumer and with select retailers. Remilia founder Charlotte Fang says, “The lifestyle brand is the last form of subcultural signaling available in the database era where all cultural access has flattened by providing a legible investment through consumption. And our subculture is the princely NEET, who we recognize is the contemporary return of the desert monk, not rejected by society, but protesting it, through their certain withdrawal. Our function is facilitating the birth of a networked collective from this uncoordinated global happening, by designing functional symbols to organize around.” The collection will be available exclusively via remilia.com, with the first of six drops landing March 20, 2026, followed by biweekly releases throughout the spring.

Many actors make fitness a part of their daily routine, and for Kushagre Dua, fitness has been a journey that started long before he entered the world of television.

The inspiration actually comes from my childhood because during my school days I was very active in sports. I played almost every sport like football, cricket, badminton and volleyball.

Since assuming leadership in 2018, he has played a pivotal role in redefining the brand’s long-term vision and operational philosophy. With a focus on bringing structure and professionalism to an otherwise fragmented industry, Vinit has steered the company toward building a system-driven salon ecosystem that prioritizes consistency, skill development, and operational excellence.

This marks a defining moment for the brand as it moves beyond product communication. The campaign reflects upon a powerful consumer truth where people are found to invest heavily in interiors, decor, furniture etc., overlooking the single element that ties it all together: lighting. Embedded around the key message- “Lights Change, Toh Vibe Change”, the TVC highlights the importance of right choice of lights in transforming spaces. The TVC features Ranbir as ‘The Vibologist’ — a quirky, authoritative character who has the power to hear and feel inanimate objects. Utilising his power he audits living spaces and diagnoses lighting problems with wit and flair. Through dark corners, harsh shadows, and mood-killing illumination, the film dramatises how poor lighting causes genuine emotional distress- and how switching to Ledure instantly solves the problem. > Sharing his vision for Ledure’s next growth chapter, **Ankit Gupta, Director, Ledure Lightings Limited emphasized** the strategic-shift from product-led storytelling to connecting emotionally with the consumers through their new TVC campaign. He highlighted “Lighting plays a crucial role in giving a space the right character and identity it truly owns, however, this remains the most ignored part while planning a home or any commercial space. Before any innovation in the industry, incandescent lamps and Compact Fluorescent Lamp (CFL) were commonly used to illuminate spaces leaving very limited scope to explore and experiment.” Further stressing on the campaign variables, Ankit mentioned the TVC tagline ‘Lights Change, Toh Vibe Change’, triggering the unavoidable question about the role of perfect lighting helping transform spaces and Ranbir‘s contagious energy & ability to combine humour with relatability turning concepts into reality. With a firm belief to fundamentally shift how Indian consumers approach lighting decisions, Ankit highlights Ledure’s role in redefining the industry and shaping lifestyles. The campaign showcases multiple real-life use cases — from living rooms and bedrooms to bathrooms, and lounge spaces — exhibiting how Ledure‘s wide range of accent lights, profile lights, and mood-setting solutions delivers transformative results across every space. Ledure’s products pivot on cutting-edge LED technology, energy efficiency, and ease of installation offering consumers an aesthetic upgrade and a conscious investment in quality and sustainability. Cementing its position as the definitive authority in modern, mood-driven lighting solutions, Ledure Lightings Limited will further work towards building awareness campaigns, planning expansion and engaging in industry networking. Consumers are invited to experience the transformation firsthand. As Ledure says — LEDURE it. Fix your vibe, instantly.

Researchers at the Institute for Global Health and Infectious Diseases recently published “Syphilis Screening Among Pregnant Individuals in Carceral Settings: Near Misses and a Call to Action” describing how a single third‑trimester syphilis test likely prevented congenital syphilis in an incarcerated pregnant patient—underscoring a widespread and unaddressed gap in national screening guidelines. The authors include Lina Rosengren-Hovee, MD, MPH; Andrea K. Knittel, MD, PhD; Becky L. White, MD, MPH; and Joseph D. Tucker, MD, PhD. “We are seeing preventable cases of congenital syphilis slip through the cracks simply because repeat screening isn’t happening,” **said Dr. Rosengren, associate professor of medicin**e. “A single third‑trimester test—especially in carceral settings—can make the difference between a healthy newborn and a life‑threatening infection. Universal screening is not just good medicine; it’s an ethical imperative.” **The Rise of Congenital Syphilis Rates** The U.S. has seen congenital syphilis cases climb from 12.4 per 100,000 live births in 2015 to 109.6 in 2024, marking the 12th consecutive year of increase, according to CDC surveillance data. In North Carolina, congenital syphilis cases were up 36% in 2022. Pregnant individuals with histories of incarceration face significantly higher syphilis rates, making early and repeat screening a critical public health priority. **Third‑Trimester Test** The study centers on a 35‑year‑old incarcerated pregnant patient who twice tested negative for syphilis early in pregnancy using routine nontreponemal tests. Only in the third trimester—when she presented with a palmar rash—did repeat screening reveal a new reactive infection requiring immediate treatment. Thanks to timely third‑trimester testing and treatment, the patient’s infant avoided congenital syphilis, receiving preventive evaluation and care. The authors describe multiple similar cases in the statewide prison prenatal system in which third‑trimester screening could have prevented congenital syphilis but went undetected due to a lack of standardized repeat testing. No surveillance system currently documents these near‑misses, leaving the scope of the problem unknown. **Guideline Gaps** Despite clear evidence that early serologic tests can miss recent infections or reinfections, there is no national consensus requiring universal third‑trimester screening: The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (2024) recently adopted universal third‑trimester screening. The US Preventive Services Task Force (2025) reaffirmed early screening only, citing insufficient evidence for universal repeat testing. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2021) recommends third‑trimester testing only for those deemed at elevated risk—a category that explicitly includes incarcerated individuals. This patchwork of recommendations means that many carceral systems lack policies requiring routine third‑trimester syphilis tests, despite the population’s elevated risk and limited access to consistent prenatal care. **Call for Action** With evidence that 88% of congenital syphilis cases in 2022 were preventable, with timely testing and treatment, the authors argue that universal third‑trimester syphilis screening should be implemented across all U.S. jails and prisons This case is a warning we can’t afford to ignore,” said Dr. Rosengren. “We are calling for universal third‑trimester syphilis screening in all carceral settings because too many mothers and infants are slipping through gaps in the system. The evidence is clear and the time to act is now.” About the Institute for Global Health and Infectious Diseases Established in 2007, the UNC Institute for Global Health & Infectious Diseases at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill started over 30 years ago with infectious disease physician researchers at the UNC School of Medicine, studying HIV in China and Malawi. Through the years, our work has expanded to include emerging pathogens, cancer, women’s health and vector-borne disease like malaria–shaping policy through evidence-based research around the world. At UNC-Chapel Hill, the Institute facilitates research excellence while nurturing emerging scientists to advance patient care and practice, addressing the most important global health issues of our time–through research, training and service.

For many of these patients, care has long meant pain and disfigurement alongside other severe side effects, rather than receiving treatment that addresses the disease itself. This new ARPA-H award marks a potential turning point. Lead researcher Susan Napier Thomas, Woodruff Professor in the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering and the Parker H. Petit Institute of Bioengineering and Bioscience (IBB), has collaborated with her colleague J. Brandon Dixon, Woodruff Professor in the Woodruff School and IBB, for more than a decade on this project. The research partners are driven by the lack of meaningful treatment options available to patients. > “Funding support at this level is unprecedented,” **Thomas said.** “It finally gives us a chance to move beyond symptom management and toward real treatment. We’re addressing an underserved population with a huge unmet need.” **A Gap in Care** The lymphatic system helps keep fluid moving through the body and plays a key role in immune health. When it does not function properly, fluid can build up in tissues, causing chronic pain and other long-term complications. Thomas noted that despite its toll on patients, lymphatic disease has lagged decades behind cardiovascular care in both treatment and research investment. “We are excited about this groundbreaking project in lymphatic engineering,” said Andrés García, IBB executive director. “By uniting interdisciplinary expertise, this work addresses long-standing challenges in lymphatic disease and moves meaningful solutions closer to the patients who need them most.” **What Comes Next** In the coming years, Thomas, Dixon, and their research partners will work toward an initial human trial, with an early focus on rare lymphatic conditions in children, as well as chronic disease in adults. > “This award reflects Georgia Tech’s growing leadership in using engineering to solve some of healthcare’s biggest challenges,” **said Carolyn Seepersad, Eugene C. Gwaltney Jr. School Chair and professor in the Woodruff School.** “It reinforces the Institute’s role in advancing innovations that improve patient care and strengthen Georgia’s position as a hub for health technology and biomedical innovation.” The award was made through ARPA-H’s Groundbreaking Lymphatic Interventions and Drug Exploration (GLIDE) program led by Dr. Kimberley Steele.

Each will bring us closer to understanding how HIV might one day be controlled without daily therapy.” **First Trial: A New Approach to an Old Problem** DELIVER-02—led scientifically by study chair David Margolis, MD, with co-chair Dr. Fredrick Sawe, MBChB, MMED at the Kenya Medical Research Institute/Walter Reed Project—confronts one of the toughest challenges in modern HIV treatment. The latent HIV reservoir is a small population of infected cells that persist despite effective antiretroviral therapy (ART). Applying innovative latency‑reversal strategies with engineered antibodies that target infected cells, in a new partnership spanning UNC, the U.S. Military HIV Research Program (MHRP), and leading research centers in Kenya with the Kenya Medical Research Institute and Moi University Clinical Research Center, could be a game changer. > “In people living with HIV, the virus can hide in cells, even when medications keep it under control,” **said Gay, protocol principal investigator.** When ART is stopped, this reservoir quickly rebounds, leading to active viremia. These antibodies connect HIV‑infected cells and T cells, enabling T cells to target killing of the newly revealed infected cells.” The study will use highly engineered DART® (Dual Affinity Re-Targeting) molecules— called MGD014 and MGD020—created by biotechnology partner MacroGenics designed to attach to cells expressing HIV and simultaneously attach to a T-cell (the immune system’s soldier). In effect, the two are brought together so that the T-cell can kill the infected cell—targeting the persistent reservoir of HIV infection while leaving healthy cells alone. “The idea is to wake up HIV virus in cells where it is hiding so HIV proteins are present on the outside of the cell and then bring in the DART antibodies to clear them,” Gay explained. This is a most promising way to directly target the HIV reservoir.” The study will compare three groups of participants. One group receives only the DART antibodies while continuing standard ART. A second group receives a medication known to stimulate the HIV virus in some cells containing HIV along with the DART antibodies. A third group will receive the DART antibodies and undergo a temporary interruption of ART, to allow comparison of the two different strategies of reversing HIV latency. Participants who undergo treatment interruption for up to 8 weeks will be monitored weekly, with strict criteria for restarting ART. Previous studies by the Military HIV Research Program have shown that this approach can be conducted safely, without increasing the viral reservoir. **DELIVER-02 Launch With New Global Partnerships** “What excites me most about this work is that we’re not only testing a new way to target HIV-infected cells with reversing latency, we are doing it in partnership with incredibly capable, high‑volume research centers in Kenya.These sites see large numbers of people living with HIV and have tremendous expertise and research experience.” Research centers in Kenya—the Kericho Clinical Research Center (KEMRI/Walter Reed), and the Moi University Clinical Research Centre (MUCRC) in Eldoret are joining UNC as clinical partners. Gay traveled to the Kenyan sites in December, with Susan Pedersen, RN, clinical director of the Institute’s Global Clinical Trials Unit, to participate in study and site preparation and meet local teams. The trip was a resounding success and confirmed the study will greatly benefit from experienced and committed research teams at both Kenyan sites. The study is funded by the U.S. Military HIV Research Program and National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Biostatistical leadership comes from Jessica Keys, PhD, and Michael Hudgens, PhD, of the Institute’s CFAR Biostatistics Core. **Second Trial: A Parallel Innovation Breaking New Ground** Margolis and Gay are also launching the first‑in‑human study of IAP 086, a new latency‑reversing agent, The new drug could provide a safe, more potent way to more effectively activate hidden HIV. For years, researchers have mostly relied on HDAC inhibitors like Vorinostat to try to reverse HIV latency, but these agents have often been too weak and, at higher doses, associated with side effects that limit their use. The new drug, IAP 086, takes a completely different approach, working through an alternative biological pathway to activate latent HIV within cells. The study will include participants with well-controlled HIV, monitored in an inpatient clinical research unit after receiving the novel drug, to carefully monitor participant safety. “HIV cure research has taught us that waking up hidden virus is possible, but our current tools are not powerful or safe enough,” **said Margolis. “**With this new drug, we’re taking a careful, stepwise approach—starting at very low doses, monitoring people intensively, and letting the safety data guide us.” Behind all the technical detail is an unmistakably human story. For the past 18 months, Dr. Gay has been preparing for the two HIV cure studies while still caring for patients in clinic — the very people who motivate this work. “Every step forward is about improving health and expanding choices for people living with HIV,” she said. “Reaching this point gives me hope and hopefully only the beginning of new strategies that get us closer to the goal.” [ ![Business News For Profit](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [People in Need of Disability Benefits Are Facing New Barriers – and Government Cuts and Overhauls Are to Blame](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/people-in-need-of-disability-benefits-are-facing-new-barriers-and-government-cuts-and-overhauls-are-to-blame/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** Millions of Americans rely on Social Security disability benefits to meet their needs, yet this already complex system has become even more difficult to navigate thanks to sweeping changes enacted by the second Trump administration and the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). A new report featuring faculty at Binghamton University, State University of New York reveals that 2025 changes to the federal benefits system – including staff cuts and administrative overhauls – have made it significantly harder for Americans to access disability benefits. “The big takeaway is that an already difficult-to-navigate system is now harder to engage with, and that means that people in need, including the 16 million people served by these two programs, have a harder time getting desperately needed cash assistance that they’re entitled to through these programs,” said Matthew Borus, an assistant professor of social work at Binghamton University. “A Qualitative Investigation of Barriers to Disability Benefits in 2025” was co-authored by Borus, Katie Savin, an assistant professor in the School of Social Work at California State University, Sacramento; and Callie Freitag, an assistant professor of social Work at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The report was published jointly by The Disability Rights Education & Defense Fund (DREDF) and the American Association of People with Disabilities (AAPD). Borus and his co-authors spoke with 52 attorney and non-attorney benefits specialists at 32 organizations that assist claimants with obtaining and maintaining Social Security Disability Insurance and Supplemental Security Income benefits. They conducted this work just months after Trump and the newly formed DOGE began implementing major changes to Social Security Administration operations. “We took a somewhat unique approach to this in that we talked with specialists at legal services agencies and disability organizations who assist people with these benefits every day. They talk with Social Security on a regular basis,” said Borus. “That gave us unique insight into how engaging with the agency became more difficult in 2025.” The researchers found that “SSA policy and process changes implemented by the second Trump administration created significant barriers for those seeking to apply for and maintain disability benefits, as well as the attorneys and benefit specialists who represent them.” Interviewees described claimants getting stuck in a loop and being unable to speak with the right people, and situations where people in severe medical crises or on the edge of homelessness were stuck waiting in desperation. “It makes it more difficult for new applicants. It makes it more difficult for continuing beneficiaries who need to update their documents or appeal decisions,” said Borus. “These changes are also having a disproportionate impact on people who are already marginalized – folks with unstable housing, immigrant families, people with limited internet access.” Borus said that the biggest factor behind many of the current issues is staffing cuts – by some estimates, the largest cuts Social Security has ever experienced. “That has had this sort of ripple effect of people being moved around to try to cover places where there’s inadequate staff, which means that experts aren’t working on the complicated policy area that they know better than anyone, and instead they’re answering phones,” said Borus. “Trying to run government programs without the needed person power doesn’t work well, especially if you’re trying to serve people in need.” In addition to making it more difficult for claimants, these burdens have also affected advocacy organizations, said Borus. “There are a lot of community organizations, including here in the Southern Tier and central New York, who work every day to help people navigate the process of applying for and dealing with SSI and SSDI. Their work has become more difficult as Social Security has become harder to engage,” said Borus. “It’s stressing the capacity of those organizations, too.Previously-routine work took up more of their time, which makes it even harder for them to serve more people, to almost have this perfect storm of decreasing access to very needed services.” Based on their findings, the researchers provided 10 recommendations for policymakers and advocates, emphasizing key issues such as adequate staffing, consistent access to SSA services at field offices and on the phone, and protecting benefit access for vulnerable populations, including immigrant families. The researchers will be hosting a webinar for professionals in the disability benefits field to share and discuss their findings. They will also be making a plain-language summary to make the information easier to digest for a general audience. “It’s been difficult to know what’s happened at Social Security, particularly since the agency removed live customer service metrics from its website last summer,” **said Borus.** “This report provides a portrait of what’s really happening.” [ ![Business News For Profit](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [New Study Offers Strong Evidence of Elevated Heart Failure Risk in Adults with Prediabetes, Hypertension and Subclinical Heart Injury or Stress](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/new-study-offers-strong-evidence-of-elevated-heart-failure-risk-in-adults-with-prediabetes-hypertension-and-subclinical-heart-injury-or-stress/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** A new study from researchers led by Johns Hopkins Medicine reports substantial new evidence that elevated blood biomarkers of subclinical heart injury or stress — heart muscle damage without symptoms of a heart attack — are linked to an increased risk of heart failure (HF) in adults with coexisting high blood pressure (hypertension) and prediabetes. The findings, the researchers say, highlight an at-risk group of individuals who could be identified via routine blood work for preventive care before heart failure occurs. The collaborative National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded study was published in JAMA Cardiology Jan. 14 and highlights how common, asymptomatic health complications can drive heart failure risk. Prediabetes, an intermediate stage in which a person has blood sugar levels that are considered higher than normal but not elevated enough to be considered diabetic, affects an estimated 115.2 million U.S. adults as of January 2026, and is broadly linked to an increased risk of heart, kidney and nerve damage. “We already know there’s a link between prediabetes and heart failure,” **says study senior author Justin Basile Echouffo Tcheugui, M.D., Ph.D.**, associate professor of medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “But we wanted to see if additional factors, such as subclinical heart injury or stress, could elevate the risk of developing heart failure beyond prediabetes alone.” For the study, Echouffo Tcheugui’s team analyzed data from adults who were previously enrolled in the NIH Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) — a 2010 clinical trial that investigated how reducing blood pressure in adults with hypertension affects the heart, kidneys and brain. The researchers compared clinical data, including heart injury or stress biomarkers, collected from 8,234 SPRINT participants (62.9% male and 37.1% female) ages 50 and older (mean age 68 years) who did not have a formal diabetes diagnosis. Two analyses were performed: one that compared heart health outcomes to baseline biomarker levels and one that looked at biomarker changes 12 months into the study. For their analyses, prediabetes was defined as fasting blood glucose of 100 to 125 milligrams per deciliter; subclinical heart injury as a high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) level equal to or greater than 6 nanograms per liter in men or 4 nanograms per liter in women; and subclinical heart stress as a N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level equal to or greater than 125 picograms per milliliter. Then, using statistical models, they calculated hazard ratios — a measurement of how often a specific event would occur in one group in comparison to another over time — for people without prediabetes based on the presence or absence of heart injury or stress. A hazard ratio of 1 would suggest there was no difference in heart failure risk between individuals with or without prediabetes, while a ratio greater than 1 would indicate an increased risk of heart failure. Similarly, a hazard ratio less than 1 would indicate one group had a decreased risk of heart failure versus the other. Comparing baseline biomarkers, the researchers found 3,271 (39.7%) study participants had prediabetes, 2,942 (35.7%) had subclinical heart injury and 3,593 (43.6%) had subclinical heart stress at the study’s onset. Over a median follow-up of 3.2 years, participants with baseline prediabetes and either heart injury or stress were overall 10 times more likely to experience HF. In comparison, those without prediabetes who had heart injury or stress only experienced a moderate HF risk increase (3.28 and 3.78, respectively). Comparing the outcomes of patients over time, the researchers found those who had both prediabetes and a 25% or greater increase in hs-cTnI or NT-proBNP levels at their 12-month follow-up were 3.05 times and 2.39 times more likely to develop heart failure. In contrast, individuals without diabetes were 2.60 times and 1.66 times more likely to experience HF, respectively, if hs-cTnI or NT-proBNP increased over time. Surprisingly, prediabetes alone was not linked to an increase or decrease in HF risk. Across both analyses, the stark difference in HF risk is believed to suggest that underlying metabolic abnormalities present in people with prediabetes may exacerbate specific types of cardiovascular disease. Echouffo Tcheugui says the study findings highlight how clinicians can easily identify prediabetic patients who are at elevated risk of heart failure using blood tests and provide appropriate medical interventions before a cardiac event occurs. “Using heart failure biomarkers, we can identify and treat these patients who have a much higher risk of cardiovascular disease, but this also means we can look at biomarkers for other cardiovascular events,” **says Echouffo Tcheugui. “**The prediabetes state is often overlooked in patients, but by defining vulnerable subpopulations, we can take preventive actions to care for patients before emergencies occur.” The study was supported by the National Institutes of Health (K23HL153774, R01HL159994, K24HL166681 and UL1TR003167).

The expansion comes at a pivotal moment in medical history: Many regions are experiencing shortages of medical specialists, people are increasingly comfortable using online health resources, and more people are seeking reliable information as they take active roles in their healthcare decisions. > “People feel more comfortable asking for a virtual second opinion when they know the process will be fast, convenient, and of high quality,**” said emergency medicine physician Shoma Desai, MD, executive director of Digital Innovation at Cedars-Sinai.** “A virtual second opinion from a national center of excellence like Cedars-Sinai gives participants confidence and empowers them to make decisions about their treatment.” ### A Participant Finds Answers For Gregory Rothaus, of Nevada, Cedars-Sinai’s Virtual Second Opinion program provided much-needed clarity. In early 2024, after several weeks of illness, Rothaus’ local physician suggested he “probably” had ulcerative colitis. “I didn’t want ‘probably,’” Rothaus said. “I wanted certainty.” With limited specialists in his area, Rothaus found the Virtual Second Opinion option especially appealing. Being able to quickly get a written second opinion report from a Cedars-Sinai specialist was a valued option. He also appreciated the optional virtual education session to clarify his questions about the written report. “It gave me peace of mind that nothing was being overlooked,” said Rothaus, who, with the support of his local, treating physician, underwent additional tests referenced in the virtual second opinion report. Within a month, the treating physician was able to give Rothaus a more accurate diagnosis: Crohn’s colitis. His condition is now in remission. Rothaus said the virtual second opinion made him feel more in control of his healthcare. “It’s about having the security that you’re on the right treatment path,” Rothaus said. “I’m the CEO of my health.” ### How Virtual Second Opinion Works More than 150 Cedars-Sinai specialists across key areas—including cancer, digestive diseases, heart and vascular conditions, lung conditions, neurology, orthopedics, pediatrics, spine conditions, and women’s health—provide virtual second opinions through a secure and private platform. Participants begin by completing a short questionnaire and speaking with a Cedars-Sinai nurse coordinator, who collects relevant medical records. The Virtual Second Opinion program then identifies a physician specialist whose expertise aligns with the participant’s area of concern. That physician reviews the prior medical records and prepares a detailed written report analyzing the participant’s medical history and prior recommendations and answering any specific questions. Participants also may choose to join an optional 30-minute virtual education session with the Cedars-Sinai specialist to ask questions related to the report. Most participants receive their full written report within five days of completing their medical record collection. Satisfaction is high—94% in recent surveys—with participants citing convenience and speed as key benefits. National surveys highlight the growing need for quicker, easier-to-access second opinions. The National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship reports that roughly one-quarter to one-third of U.S. cancer patients seek a second opinion, though many hesitate because of concerns about potential treatment delays or geographic barriers. Virtual second opinions help overcome these challenges by efficiently and quickly identifying specialists who have expertise in a participant’s area of concern. At present, Cedars-Sinai’s Virtual Second Opinion program is available to residents in Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin. There is a one-time fee to access a Virtual Second Opinion at Cedars-Sinai. Although it is not covered by insurance, most FSA and HSA plans may reimburse the cost.

A new study, published in the March 9 online issue of npj Health Systems \[https://doi.org/10.1038/s44401-026-00077-0\], suggests that the answer depends less on the AI itself and more on how it’s designed. The investigators found that health care AI systems work far better when tasks are distributed among multiple specialized AI “agents”—software systems that can perform complex tasks, learn, and adapt—rather than relying on a single, all-purpose agent. This multi-agent approach kept performance steady even as demands increased, while dramatically reducing computing costs and delays, say the investigators. > “For health care organizations, our findings point to a smarter way to use AI,” **says senior study author Girish N. Nadkarni, MD, MPH, Barbara T. Murphy Chair of the Windreich Department of Artificial Intelligence and Human Health,** Director of the Hasso Plattner Institute for Digital Health, Irene and Dr. Arthur M. Fishberg Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine, and Chief AI Officer of the Mount Sinai Health System. “By assigning different tasks, such as finding patient information, extracting data, or checking medication doses, to specialized AI agents, systems can run faster and more reliably while keeping costs under control. Ultimately, this kind of design could help health care teams spend less time on administrative work and more time focusing on patients.” As part of the study, the researchers compared two approaches to clinical AI: a single system responsible for handling many different clinical tasks, and a coordinated network of specialized AI agents overseen by a central “orchestrator.” Using state-of-the-art language models, the team evaluated performance across common clinical functions, including information retrieval, data extraction, and medication dosing calculations—under simulated real-world conditions involving up to 80 simultaneous tasks. > “What we found is that AI systems behave a lot like people,**” says study lead author Eyal Klang,** MD, formerly with the Icahn School of Medicine. “When you ask one system to do too many different things at once, performance suffers. But when one orchestrator agent divides the work among specialized agents, the system stays accurate, responsive, and far more efficient, even under heavy demand.” The coordinated multi-agent system maintained superior accuracy levels while using far fewer computing resources, up to 65 times fewer, than a single-agent design. The study simulated real clinical “traffic,” where many types of tasks arrive at once and compete for attention, the investigators say. > “Our findings show that smart coordination is not just a technical preference,” **Dr. Klang says**. “It can make the difference between an AI system that continues to function smoothly and one that begins to break down when it is exposed to the pressures of real clinical workloads.” Next, the research team plans to test these coordinated AI systems directly in clinical settings, using real-time patient data. If successful, this approach could help shape how hospitals and health systems scale AI in the future, helping them handle peak workloads without sacrificing quality or safety. > The researchers emphasize that the gains are not automatic: even sophisticated AI can fall short when systems are poorly designed or implemented. “Health care does not operate one task at a time,” **Dr. Nadkarni says.** “Hospitals face constant, overlapping demands, especially during busy periods. Our findings show that the future of health care AI is not a single super-intelligent system, but a coordinated team of focused agents that work together to scale safely, control costs, and support real clinical operations.” > > “When a single agent handles everything, you can’t trace where it went wrong. With the orchestrator, every step is logged, which tool was called, what it returned, and how the answer was assembled. At 80 simultaneous tasks, the single agent dropped to 16 percent accuracy while burning 65 times more compute—and you’d have no way to figure out why. That kind of transparency isn’t optional in medicine,” **says second author Mahmud Omar, MD,** a visiting researcher in the Windreich Department. “This matters more now than ever—agentic AI is no longer a research concept. Tools like OpenAI’s operator mode, Claude’s Cowork, and similar platforms are putting autonomous agents directly in the hands of clinicians and patients. As that adoption accelerates, the architecture behind these systems has to be auditable from the start.” The paper is titled “Orchestrated multi agents sustain accuracy under clinical‑scale workloads compared to a single agent.” The study’s authors, as listed in the journal, are Eyal Klang, Mahmud Omar, Ganesh Raut, Reem Agbareia, Prem Timsina, Robert Freeman, Lisa Stump, Alexander Charney, Benjamin S.

In a paper published in New Media & Society, researchers Toby Hopp, associate professor in advertising, public relations and design, and journalism professor Patrick Ferrucci found that people who use Nextdoor more frequently report greater concern about crime and greater openness to aggressive policing tactics than those who use it less or not at all. “Nextdoor is increasingly serving a need that has been historically served by local news outlets that don’t exist anymore,” **said Hopp.** “But Nextdoor’s business model is built around retaining audience attention and serving advertisements—it isn’t linked to journalistic norms like balance, fairness and verified reporting.” The study is based on an online survey of 1,806 U.S. adults conducted in 2023. Participants reported how frequently they use Nextdoor, their levels of concern about crime, and their views on a range of policing practices. The researchers initially expected that users who trusted their neighbors less would be more concerned about crime. Instead, they found that people with higher levels of social trust expressed greater concern. “Because those folks trust their neighbors, they’re more likely to take reports of crime seriously, which is associated with enhanced concern and an openness to more aggressive policing,” Hopp said. The researchers could not determine whether users join Nextdoor because they are worried about crime or whether using the platform heightens those concerns. The authors say the findings add context to ongoing national conversations about immigration, incarceration and technology. Ferrucci said neighborhood posts may amplify isolated incidents without broader context. “It maybe gives people the idea that stolen packages, or loitering, are far more prevalent than they are” he said. Researchers also analyzed respondents’ willingness to consider various policing approaches, including stop-and-frisk practices, vehicle searches during routine traffic stops and allowing police access to military-grade weapons. “Each of these questions presents real constitutional concerns,” Hopp said. “And if you think about what you’re willing to accept in your community, are you more willing to support these kinds of things in other communities?” [ ![Business News For Profit](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [JMIR Publications Partners with the University of Turku for Unlimited OA Publishing](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/jmir-publications-partners-with-the-university-of-turku-for-unlimited-oa-publishing/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **TORONTO & TURKU, Mar 14th:** JMIR Publications, a leading open-access digital health research publisher, and the University of Turku (UTU) are pleased to announce a new Flat-Fee Unlimited Open Access Publishing Agreement.

The findings, published in JAMA Network Open, suggest that medication changes are not uncommon among patients undergoing weight loss and that clinicians should encourage them to change GLP-1RAs if necessary to promote continuity of care. “This study provides one of the largest real-world descriptions to date of how adults with overweight or obesity use and switch GLP-1RAs over time,” **said first author Luyu (Amber) Xie, Ph.D., Pharm.D., Assistant Professor in the Peter O’Donnell Jr. School of Public Health and co-Director of the Biostatistics and Data Science Core at UT Southwestern.** “It highlights that long-term persistence is low and that switching between medications is a relatively common part of ongoing treatment rather than a sign of failure.” The study examined insurance claims from nearly 127,000 U.S. adults with overweight or obesity who initiated GLP-1 therapy between 2019 and 2024. By tracking medication use over 12 months, the researchers found that treatment often did not follow a linear path. Instead, many patients adjusted therapy in response to side effects, access, insurance coverage, and the introduction of new medications. GLP-1RAs, including semaglutide, liraglutide, and tirzepatide, are now a central part of obesity treatment. However, maintaining long-term adherence to the drugs has been challenging. In the study, only a quarter of the patients remained on any GLP-1RA one year after starting, with roughly 1 in 5 patients transitioning to a different GLP-1RA during that period. Patients who switched were more likely to continue treatment and showed higher adherence than those who remained on their initial medication, suggesting adjustments often reflected active management. “Switching between GLP-1RA medications should be viewed as a normal part of long-term obesity care,” said senior author Sarah Messiah, Ph.D., M.P.H., Professor of Epidemiology and Pediatrics, Associate Dean for Research in the O’Donnell School of Public Health, and Director of the Child and Adolescent Population Health Program. “Persistence should not be judged by staying on a single drug indefinitely, but by maintaining engagement in care and working with clinicians to find sustainable, effective treatment strategies over time.” The researchers also visualized treatment pathways to illustrate how patients transitioned among medications during the study period. Newer, once-weekly injectable therapies frequently served as both starting points and switch destinations, reflecting their growing role in obesity management. “In today’s clinical environment, successful obesity care often involves adapting treatment over time rather than expecting a single medication to meet every patient’s needs indefinitely,” said co-author Jaime Almandoz, M.D., M.B.A., Professor of Internal Medicine in the Division of Endocrinology and Medical Director of UTSW’s Weight Wellness Program. The findings underscore the importance of setting clear expectations with patients early in treatment, including the possibility that more than one medication may be prescribed before a long-term approach is identified. The authors said future research will explore how patient characteristics, specific medications, and timing of therapy influence treatment trajectories, with the goal of informing more personalized and sustainable approaches to obesity care.

Sunil Mathew, M.S., Senior Population Science Data Manager; and Jackson Francis, M.P.H., Population Science Project Coordinator.

An expert panel outlines an updated approach to assessing MH risk in North American patients, according to a special article in the April 2026 issue of Anesthesiology, the peer-reviewed medical journal of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA). The article is being co-published in the Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d’anesthésie. > “Identifying patients potentially at risk for MH is a critical priority for anesthesiologists, but challenging to diagnose,” **said study lead author Sheila Riazi, M.D., University Health Network and the University of Toronto.** “We outline a stepwise approach to identifying patients and families who might be at risk, highlighting the use of genetic testing to identify MH-causing mutations.” Patients with MH have genetic mutations affecting muscle metabolism, leading to dangerously high body temperature and other serious reactions when exposed to certain anesthesia drugs – including widely used inhaled anesthetics. Although effective treatments are available, MH can be fatal – making it essential to identify patients who are MH-susceptible (MHS). Most MHS patients can safely undergo surgery with the use of alternative approaches, such as total intravenous anesthesia. It is estimated that the prevalence of MH ranges from 1 in 2,000 and 1 in 3,000 to as high as 1 in 800. Assessment of MH risk is challenging. Accurate tests of the muscle dysfunction are available but invasive, expensive, and – in North America – available at only a few specialized centers. Genetic testing may provide an alternative approach to identifying MHS patients, according to the new guidance. Dr. Riazi and coauthors outline a practical approach to identifying patients who should be targeted for genetic testing. The decision depends on the anesthesiologist asking three simple questions: “Do you have MHS or have you had an MH reaction?” “Does someone in your family have MHS or have they had an MH reaction?” “Have you or a family member undergone genetic testing for MHS? If yes, what were the test results?” The answers will guide the anesthesiologist’s decision-making as to next steps. Patients with past episodes of MH reactions “should be managed as if they are MHS” and should undergo surgery with the use of “non-triggering” anesthetics. Patients with any personal or family history of MH may also undergo genetic testing for MH-related genes. If testing detects an MH gene variant, family members should also be tested. The authors’ recommendation reflects the fact that “genetic testing is becoming so inexpensive that it is increasingly affordable to do the testing as a screening tool rather than just as a diagnostic tool,” they wrote. However, they note that the rate of MH after a positive genetic test can be “surprisingly low” in patients with no other history or risk factors. In some situations, further evaluation for definitive diagnosis of MH may be considered. The article provides anesthesiologists with a detailed decision tree to guide patient evaluation and management. The article also discusses other scenarios, such as delivery of an infant with possible MHS. If one parent has an MHS-causing gene, there is a 50% chance that the infant may have the same mutation. “Even with increased emphasis on safety, it is critical to recognize that risk can never be reduced to zero,” Dr. Riazi said. The authors’ intent is that their proposed approach will help anesthesiologists clarify their clinical decision-making and appropriately balance the risks and benefits of inhaled anesthetics to support surgery. The Malignant Hyperthermia Association of the United States (www.mhaus.org) provides further information and education on MH and related disorders. THE AMERICAN SOCIETY OF ANESTHESIOLOGISTS Founded in 1905, the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) is an educational, research and scientific society with more than 60,000 members organized to advance the medical practice of anesthesiology and secure its future. ASA is committed to ensuring anesthesiologists evaluate and supervise the medical care of all patients before, during, and after surgery. ASA members also lead the care of critically ill patients in intensive care units, as well as treat pain in both acute and chronic settings.

Yet, early detection and treatment progress remain limited by drug resistance, systemic toxicity and poor tumor specificity. Targeted therapy solves these limitations by directing therapeutic agents to cancerous tissues while protecting healthy cells. Nanocarrier-based delivery systems have improved drug solubility while extending circulation time and enabling controlled drug release at tumor sites. This review examines the current integration of ultrasound (US) as a strong external trigger which boosts nanocarrier-mediated therapy effectiveness. The application of continuous and pulsed US shows potential to enhance drug delivery by improving penetration and site-specific activation and spatiotemporal control of therapeutic release through acoustic cavitation and hyperthermia mechanisms. The application of US-responsive nanocarriers demonstrates promising outcomes in breast cancer models, both in vitro and in vivo, by delivering higher drug concentrations to tumors while minimizing damage to healthy tissues. The research details the US parameters that affect drug release patterns and therapeutic results. Such systems have been investigated for their dual diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) capabilities, which enable new personalized and image-guided treatment methods. Various case studies and preclinical evaluations demonstrate the advantages of integrating US with nanocarrier systems. The main obstacles to clinical implementation involve standardizing US protocols and enhancing nanocarrier designs, and addressing regulatory requirements. Our previous research works demonstrate how US-guided mediation can be combined with magnetic induction to create a revolutionary breast cancer treatment approach.

With healthcare costs rising and insurance options expanding, it’s crucial to choose a provider that offers reliable coverage, excellent support, and smooth access to medical care. In 2026, several real-world factors can help you assess which health insurer is truly trustworthy. ### 1. Check the Network of Hospitals A good health insurer should have an extensive **network of hospitals** in your city and across the country. Verify whether your preferred hospitals, both for emergencies and routine treatments, are included. A wide network ensures you have access to quality care without hassle or delays. ### 2. Cashless Facility Cashless hospitalization is one of the most sought-after benefits. Check if the insurer provides **cashless treatment options** at network hospitals. This feature allows you to receive care without upfront payments, easing financial stress during medical emergencies. ### 3. Customer Support Reliable insurers offer **responsive customer support** to assist with claims, policy details, and emergency guidance. Look for companies that provide multiple communication channels, including phone, chat, and mobile apps, so help is available whenever needed. ### 4. Claim Settlement Record Research the insurer’s **claim settlement ratio** and customer reviews. High settlement ratios indicate a smooth and transparent claims process, while low ratios may signal delays or frequent disputes. ### 5. Coverage and Inclusions Compare policies for **coverage details**, including hospitalization, pre-existing conditions, day-care procedures, and critical illness benefits. A trustworthy insurer clearly outlines what is included and excludes hidden clauses. ### 6. Flexibility and Portability Choose a health insurer that allows **policy portability**, enabling you to switch plans without losing benefits. Flexible policies that accommodate changing health needs over time provide long-term security. ### 7. Premium Transparency Ensure that premiums are **transparent** and aligned with the coverage offered. Avoid insurers who offer low initial premiums but have high deductibles or hidden charges. ### 8. Reviews and Recommendations Check online reviews and ask for recommendations from family, friends, or healthcare providers. Real-world experiences often reveal strengths and weaknesses of insurers that official brochures may not highlight. ### 9. Value-Added Services Many insurers now offer additional services such as **teleconsultations, health check-ups, wellness programs, and mental health support**. These value-added services can improve your overall healthcare experience and support preventive care. ### Top Health Insurers to Consider in 2026 Some trusted health insurers in India in 2026 include **HDFC ERGO Health Insurance, ICICI Lombard General Insurance, Max Bupa Health Insurance, Star Health and Allied Insurance, and Aditya Birla Health Insurance**.

While established hubs remain important, companies are now exploring emerging destinations that offer new markets, growing industries, and attractive investment environments. For organizations seeking profitable expansion and strategic partnerships, identifying the right emerging business destinations has become a key component of travel planning. In the current economic climate, businesses are prioritizing locations that combine economic growth, infrastructure development, and favorable business policies. These emerging destinations are rapidly transforming into important meeting points for entrepreneurs, investors, and multinational companies. ### Why Businesses Are Exploring New Destinations The dynamics of international trade and investment are constantly changing. As industries diversify and supply chains evolve, companies are seeking opportunities in regions that were previously overlooked. Emerging business destinations often offer competitive advantages such as lower operational costs, expanding consumer markets, and supportive government policies designed to attract foreign investment. Improved connectivity, modern infrastructure, and the growth of innovation ecosystems are also making these destinations more appealing to global businesses. For companies looking to diversify their international presence, exploring new locations can open doors to untapped markets and long-term partnerships. ### Southeast Asia’s Growing Business Appeal Southeast Asia has become one of the most attractive regions for business travel and investment. Countries across the region are experiencing rapid economic growth, supported by expanding manufacturing sectors, technology startups, and digital economies. Cities such as Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam are attracting global companies seeking manufacturing partnerships and technology collaboration.

While tourism demand continues to recover and grow, travelers and businesses are becoming more cautious and strategic in planning trips. The year is expected to bring both opportunities and challenges as the industry adapts to a complex global environment. Industry observers note that travel in 2026 will be defined by resilience, with strong demand balanced by economic pressures and geopolitical risks that influence traveler behavior. ### Travel Demand Remains Strong but More Selective Despite global uncertainty, international travel demand continues to grow as people prioritize experiences and mobility. However, travelers are becoming more selective about where and how they travel. Rising transportation and accommodation costs are encouraging travelers to plan fewer but more meaningful trips. Instead of frequent short journeys, many travelers are focusing on destinations that offer value, unique cultural experiences, and strong infrastructure. Business travel is also becoming more strategic. Companies are prioritizing trips that deliver clear outcomes such as conferences, partnership meetings, and market expansion opportunities while reducing unnecessary travel. ### Global Unrest Influencing Travel Decisions Geopolitical tensions and regional conflicts are increasingly influencing global travel patterns in 2026. Ongoing unrest in several parts of the world has affected airspace availability, airline routes, and traveler confidence. Airlines have been forced to adjust flight paths due to security concerns and restricted airspace in certain regions. These adjustments often result in longer travel times, higher operational costs, and occasional disruptions to international travel schedules. At the same time, travelers are paying closer attention to global developments before planning trips. Safety, stability, and accessibility have become major factors in destination selection. ### Stable Destinations Gaining Attention As global uncertainties continue to influence travel behavior, destinations perceived as safe and politically stable are attracting increased interest from international travelers. Countries with strong infrastructure, efficient transportation networks, and well-developed tourism sectors are benefiting from this shift. Travelers are prioritizing destinations that offer reliable services, modern facilities, and consistent connectivity. This trend is also encouraging tourism boards and governments to strengthen their safety standards and communication strategies to maintain traveler confidence. ### Technology Transforming the Travel Experience Technology continues to play a central role in shaping travel experiences in 2026. Artificial intelligence, mobile travel applications, and digital booking platforms are helping travelers plan trips more efficiently. Modern travel tools allow users to compare flights, accommodations, and transportation options in real time. Travelers can also receive updates on schedules, weather conditions, and local regulations, enabling them to adapt quickly to changing circumstances. For travel companies, digital transformation is improving customer engagement while helping businesses manage bookings, logistics, and customer service more effectively. ### Sustainability Influencing Travel Choices Sustainability has become a major factor in travel decision-making. Many travelers are now prioritizing eco-friendly accommodations, responsible tourism experiences, and destinations that actively promote environmental conservation. Hotels, airlines, and tour operators are increasingly adopting sustainable practices such as energy-efficient infrastructure, reduced waste initiatives, and environmentally responsible travel experiences. These efforts are not only helping reduce the environmental impact of tourism but are also attracting environmentally conscious travelers. ### Regional and Shorter Trips on the Rise Economic pressures and travel disruptions are also encouraging travelers to take shorter trips closer to home. Regional tourism is gaining momentum as travelers look for convenient destinations that require less planning and lower travel costs. This shift toward regional travel is strengthening domestic tourism markets and encouraging travelers to explore nearby destinations they may not have previously considered. Shorter trips provide flexibility while allowing travelers to enjoy new experiences without long travel times or complex itineraries. The travel industry in 2026 is navigating a landscape shaped by both opportunity and uncertainty. While demand for travel remains strong, economic concerns and global unrest are influencing how travelers plan their journeys. As a result, travelers are focusing on safety, value, and meaningful experiences while relying on technology to navigate an evolving travel environment. For tourism businesses and destinations, adapting to these trends will be essential to attracting travelers and sustaining growth in the years ahead.

The technique allows surgeons to remove cancer-affected bone while **preserving the limb** and enabling it to grow normally, improving long-term mobility and quality of life. Bone cancers such as **osteosarcoma** and **Ewing sarcoma** often affect children and adolescents. Traditional treatments sometimes required amputating the limb or resulted in permanent differences in leg length, creating long-term physical and emotional challenges. Growing implants now offer a more effective solution. ### How the Growing Implant Works The growing implant, also called an **expandable prosthesis**, is placed after the tumor is removed. Unlike standard implants, it can **lengthen gradually as the child grows**. Many modern implants use **magnetic technology**, allowing doctors to extend the device during routine hospital visits without additional surgery. The gradual lengthening helps muscles, joints, and tissues adjust naturally, reducing pain and complications compared with older surgical methods. ### Benefits for Patients The implant offers several advantages: - Preserves the limb and improves mobility - Reduces the need for repeated surgeries - Maintains balanced limb growth - Supports long-term function and quality of life Lengthening procedures usually take only **15–20 minutes**, allowing children to return to normal activities quickly. ### Future Developments While implants can be costly and occasionally require revision surgeries, advances in **3D printing, imaging, and customized surgical planning** are improving their precision and durability. Growing implants are helping doctors focus on both **curing cancer** and **ensuring children can lead active, independent lives** after treatment. This innovation provides families facing bone cancer with renewed hope for survival and a better quality of life.

The report builds on a 2019 analysis and incorporates more recent data while expanding the scope of the earlier research. While the previous report focused primarily on childhood asthma, the updated study also examines asthma among adults. It also features new data visualizations that illustrate how environmental conditions and health outcomes intersect across neighborhoods. > *“We wanted to ensure that the updated report incorporated the latest available data and reflected what we have learned from the community over the past six years,” said **Elizabeth Hubertz, director of the Interdisciplinary Environmental Clinic at the Washington University School of Law.*** In addition to documenting disparities, the new report places greater emphasis on practical solutions. > *“The earlier report focused largely on describing environmental and health challenges using public data and interviews with community members,” said **Eric Conners, a postdoctoral fellow in the clinic and a contributing author of the report**. “This updated report not only outlines those challenges but also offers evidence-based recommendations for addressing them.”* The report includes “Community Spotlights” that highlight local organizations working to improve environmental and health conditions in St. Louis. It also provides a resource guide for residents seeking assistance or ways to participate in community initiatives. Among its recommendations, the report calls for improved collection and sharing of environmental health data. For example, it suggests updating Missouri’s environmental public health tracking database more frequently and testing soils and surfaces in public areas where children gather when contamination risks are present. To address air quality and respiratory health concerns, the report recommends that schools adopt the AirNow Air Quality Flag Program and calls for expanding the number of air quality monitoring devices throughout the city. Additional recommendations include addressing the causes of illegal dumping, educating homeowners about beneficiary deeds to help reduce housing vacancy, supporting community-owned grocery stores in underserved areas, and improving data collection on mold complaints in rental housing. The report also highlights how natural disasters can intensify existing challenges in communities with older housing and limited resources. For example, neighborhoods may experience greater damage and slower recovery following severe weather events such as the May 2025 tornado in St. Louis. > *“Natural disasters often amplify existing community challenges,” **Conners** said. “While we cannot prevent future storms or flooding, we can strengthen the resilience of communities that are most vulnerable.”* Even without extensive federal support, researchers note that cities and states can make meaningful progress. Residents can also play an important role by engaging with local officials, participating in neighborhood organizations, and reporting environmental concerns such as illegal dumping or housing hazards. *“A lot of the meaningful action happens at the local and state level,” Conners added.* [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ### [Raftaar Starring Rajkummar Rao and Keerthy Suresh Set for July 24 Release](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/entertainment/raftaar-starring-rajkummar-rao-and-keerthy-suresh-set-for-july-24-release/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai, Mar 14**: Amazon MGM Studios announced that its theatrical movie Raftaar, is set to release on 24 July 2026 in theaters. **Directed by Aditya Nimbalkar and produced by Patralekhaa under the banner of Kampa Film**, this film is executive produced by Tarun Bali, with story and screenplay by Rohan Narula.

This trip marks the longest known recorded dispersal for the species. > *“This is exciting because even though fishers are a significant species and play a key role in the ecosystem of the northeast, relatively few field studies have documented their dispersal, or journey away from their birth home, especially over long distances,” said **Remington Moll, associate professor in natural resources and environment**. “What makes it even more unique is that the journey was documented over a winter with relatively deep snow, which typically is thought to limit their mobility and dispersal movements.”* In the study, published in the journal Northeastern Naturalist, researchers describe the relatively straight-line distance of the female fisher, identified as F003. Initially outfitted with a GPS tracker, researchers monitored her location each week and obtained snow-depth estimates relevant to the dispersal area from the National Centers for Environmental Information (NOAA 2025). After several months of tracking, she was traced 118 kilometers away in the White Mountains. Dispersal, or the relocation of a young animal to secure their own home range, plays a crucial role in the survival and genetic diversity of wildlife populations. For fishers, medium-sized carnivores native to North American forests, such movements are essential for maintaining populations that in turn support healthy ecosystems. However, field studies documenting fisher dispersal, especially over long distances, have been scarce. Fisher populations have been on an apparent decline in last two decades in New Hampshire, with potential contributing factors including rodenticide poisoning, novel diseases, historic harvest, an increase in bobcat population — a known predator — vehicle collisions and ongoing habitat fragmentation. > *“Conserving fishers not only supports biodiversity but also helps ensure that New Hampshire’s forests remain resilient and sustainable,” said **Moll.** “Fishers are important for rodent control, help with dispersing fungal spores and are one of the few predators that hunt porcupines that can cause major damage to timber and harvestable trees.”* Researchers say this type of long-distance journey could occur more frequently given fishers’ abilities to roam freely. It is hard to know why this young female fisher traveled so far. They speculate that ultimately the animal is looking for a suitable habitat with access to mates so they can reproduce and persist as a species. Female fishers tend to prefer areas without other female competition so this animal could have been encountering other females along the way and needed to keep traveling. Researchers stress that this unprecedented dispersal event underscores the fisher’s adaptability and the need for further research into the species’ movement patterns. This is especially important for preserving connected habitats at a regional scale for management and conservation. The research was supported by the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the University of New Hampshire Agricultural Experiment Station under the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture.

Her story highlights a critical health issue that affects millions of women, many of whom suffer from debilitating symptoms without knowing their options. Uterine fibroids (also known as myomas or leiomyomas) range in size from as small as a pinhead to as large as a grapefruit. They affect an estimated 26 million women in the U.S., with more than 15 million experiencing significant symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain and bladder and bowel dysfunction. Research shows a staggering prevalence: by age 50, more than 80% of Black women and approximately 70% of white women will develop fibroids. Despite this, women often wait years before seeking a diagnosis and treatment. **Several factors can increase a woman’s risk of developing fibroids, including**: Vitamin D deficiency Early onset of menstruation Obesity A diet high in red meat > *“Lupita Nyong’o’s story resonates with so many of my patients who have suffered in silence for years with heavy bleeding, pain, and pressure, thinking it was just a normal part of being a woman,” says Jocelyn Carlo, M.D., FACOG, director of gynecologic surgery at Hackensack Meridian Jersey Shore University Medical Center in Neptune, N.J. “Fibroids are treatable with more than a hysterectomy. It is vital that women feel empowered to speak up about their symptoms and seek expert care. A diagnosis is the first step toward reclaiming your quality of life, and today, there are more uterus-preserving and minimally invasive options than ever before.”* Hackensack Meridian Health is a leader in offering such advanced procedures. A number of HMH sites recently incorporated the Sonata® Transcervical Fibroid Ablation system, a targeted, incision-free procedure, that uses heat to address fibroids. This adds to existing, similar approaches such as the Acessa® Laparoscopic Fibroid Ablation system, uterine artery embolization and robotic myomectomies – offering women a range of minimally invasive options tailored to their specific needs. > *“Hackensack Meridian Health is at the forefront of gynecological innovation, and our leadership in advanced fibroid treatment demonstrates this. By integrating cutting-edge technologies like the Sonata® Transcervical Fibroid Ablation system, we are fundamentally changing how we manage fibroids,” said **Michele Isaacs, M.D, an obstetrician and gynecologist who also specializes in fibroid treatment options**. “Treatments such as Acessa® , which we utilize at Hackensack University Medical Center, allow us to offer a full spectrum of minimally invasive solutions that preserve the uterus, significantly shorten recovery time, and tailor treatments that are most effective and least disruptive to each patient’s unique needs.”* [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [A New RNA Therapy Could Help the Heart Repair Itself](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/a-new-rna-therapy-could-help-the-heart-repair-itself/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** Researchers at Columbia University have developed an innovative RNA-based therapy that may help the heart repair itself after injury, potentially transforming the way heart attacks are treated. The study, published in the journal Science on March 5, demonstrates a minimally invasive treatment that encourages the body to produce its own healing molecules. The therapy was designed by researchers led by Cheng and tested in collaboration with clinicians at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital. Instead of delivering medicine directly to the heart through invasive procedures, the treatment can be administered as a simple injection in the arm. > *“You don’t have to open the chest or send a wire to the heart to deliver this drug,” **Cheng** said. “In principle, all the clinician needs to do is inject the particles into the arm.”* The research focuses on a natural hormone called Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP), which helps newborn hearts regenerate by encouraging new blood vessel growth, reducing inflammation, and limiting scar formation. However, levels of this hormone decrease significantly with age, which limits the heart’s ability to repair itself after a heart attack. To overcome this challenge, the research team created RNA-lipid nanoparticles that deliver genetic instructions encoding the gene NPPA into skeletal muscle cells. These cells then produce an inactive precursor molecule called pro-ANP, which circulates in the bloodstream until it reaches the heart. There, an enzyme known as Corin—present at much higher levels in heart tissue—converts it into active ANP, triggering healing processes. In laboratory experiments involving both small and large animals, a single injection significantly reduced scarring and improved heart function after a heart attack. The therapy uses self-amplifying RNA (saRNA), allowing the treatment to remain active for at least four weeks after a single dose. Torsten Vahl, an attending physician at Columbia University Irving Medical Center and assistant professor of medicine at Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, emphasized the potential clinical impact. > *“As a clinician who opens arteries with stents for patients who come to us with heart attacks, I am highly aware that we have a large unmet need,” **Vahl** said. “Too many times, patients are left with severe heart damage that later results in heart failure.”* Unlike current treatments such as organ transplants or stem cell therapies, RNA-based treatments may eventually be more affordable and accessible. The research team also tested the therapy in aged animals, animals with diet-induced Type 2 Diabetes, and models prone to Atherosclerosis. The treatment remained effective even when administered a week after a heart attack. Beyond heart repair, the researchers believe the same RNA-delivery approach could be applied to other conditions, including Kidney Disease, High Blood Pressure, and Preeclampsia. The team plans to manufacture the therapy through the Columbia Initiative in Cell Engineering and Therapy and hopes to begin a Phase I clinical safety trial at Columbia University Irving Medical Center in the future. > “If we can prove this therapy works in humans, it could open the door to regenerative treatments not only for the heart but for other organs as well,” the researchers noted.

Because some labels do not clearly indicate how consumers should dispose of them, these small cloths often are flushed down the toilet and released by sewage plants into waterways. Now, researchers report in ACS ES&T Water that some of these wipes break down into plastic fibers, or microplastics, that could harm aquatic life. > *“Plastic wet wipes are an underrepresented type of single-use plastic and are a source of macro- and microplastic pollution in our water,” says **Simran Hansra, the leader of the study.*** A staple in restaurants that serve messy food like barbecue, wet wipes were initially invented in the late 1950s to remove cosmetics. Over the years, companies expanded the applications of these small, damp cloths to include their substitution for traditional toilet paper. After the material is flushed, it usually ends up in treatment plants, which can clog pipes and require expensive repairs. Wet wipes can also move into waterways when combined sewage overflows release their contents after storms. Some wipes are made of cellulose, which breaks down rapidly in the environment, but others are made from plastics that could degrade into more stable microplastic fibers that may harm aquatic wildlife. To better understand the environmental impact of these disposable cloths, Hansra, Jacob Haney and Chelsea Rochman investigated how they break down in waterways. The researchers sampled the Don River in Toronto, Canada, for plastic pollution, including microplastics, in 2022 and shared their findings in a previous study. Now, they report that wet wipes were the second most abundant manufactured litter type behind plastic bags in the river samples, making up about a quarter of the collected litter. Of the wipes analyzed, 99% were plastic: 51% were polypropylene, 48% were polyester and the remainder were other polymers, including cotton. They calculated that about 620 pounds (280 kilograms; about the weight of a male grizzly bear) of wipes were floating in the river at the time they sampled. To gain insight into why wipes were being flushed, the team carefully examined labels on boxes of commercially available wipes from popular stores in Toronto and a popular online retailer. Only seven out of 72 product labels stated the material they were made of (e.g., cellulose or synthetic polymers), and 48 of the labels included disposal instructions, such as **“flushable” or “do not flush.”** Because so many wipes were found in the Don River, the researchers conclude that many consumers are flushing wipes that shouldn’t be sent down the toilet. In laboratory experiments, the team assessed how commercially available wipes degrade in simulated environmental conditions. As expected, cellulose wipes labeled as “flushable” broke down the fastest, losing the most mass over six weeks, followed by polypropylene and then polyester wipes. Both sun and water treatment increased mass loss compared with dry, dark conditions. All the wipes shed microscopic fibers during the experiments, which suggests that plastic-based wet wipes released into the environment could produce microplastics.

Over the decades, Master of Business Administration (MBA) has been regarded as one of the most prestigious and diverse postgraduate degrees globally. It guaranteed leadership positions, good business contacts, and entry into well-paying management jobs. Nevertheless, the emergence of online entrepreneurship, professional courses, and online education makes many students now doubt the value of MBA. The solution is in the way that the MBA itself has changed. The MBA in the contemporary economy is no longer merely about learning management theory, but rather about becoming strategic thinkers, possessing a range of interdisciplinary knowledge and being able to lead organizations amidst uncertainty. An MBA can remain among the strongest career multipliers on the list provided one approaches it strategically. ### The Hidden Benefit of the MBA: Decision-Making The general belief is that an MBA is mainly a course focusing on finance, marketing and management. In practice, something more valuable is its ultimate result, which is structured decision-making. The current organizations work in ambiguous environments. Leaders have to make decisions using incomplete data, uncertain markets and multifaceted stakeholder demands. The MBA programs are designed to enable students to think about issues in various ways and make decisions on the fly. Take the case of a middle level engineer of a manufacturing firm who identifies some inefficiencies in the supply chain operations. Having studied MBA, the professional gets to study how to analyze cost structures, market dynamics, and operational strategy. The individual is no longer just offering technical solutions but also suggests a change in the business model that lowers the costs and makes the delivery timelines better. The transition to strategic thinking as compared to technical thinking greatly increases the career opportunities. That is why these skills to mix analysis and leadership is what makes the MBA graduates stand out of the purely technical specialists. The Reason MBA Graduates are becoming more and more valuable. The corporate environment is evolving at a high pace. Businesses require individuals who are knowledgeable of technology and business strategy. This has increased the opportunities of MBA graduates in industries. The revived topicality of MBA education is being caused by several factors: · \* Complex global markets need people who possess knowledge of international trade, finance and policy environments. · \* Digital transformation requires leaders who are capable of bridging the technology teams and business strategy. · \*Startup ecosystems require managers who can transform innovative ideas into long term businesses. · \*Decision-making using analytics needs leaders who have the ability to analyze and turn insights into strategy. MBA graduates in such an environment that integrate domain knowledge and managerial skills tend to climb the ladder to leadership positions. ### MBA as a Career Pivot Tool Another benefit of MBA that is underestimated is that it allows people to change their career path. The MBA is not a narrow degree like most of the specialized degrees but is rather a general knowledge on how organizations are run. An MBA can help a professional in the engineering, medical, legal, or even creative field to shift to management, consulting, entrepreneurship or corporate leadership. As an illustration, one can look at a medical practitioner who has graduated with an MBA in healthcare management. The person does not work in clinical responsibilities; he or she shifts to hospital administration, healthcare consulting, or medical technology management. The MBA opens the doors that would not have been opened otherwise. This is one of the best reasons why many professionals will pursue the degree because of this career mobility. ### New Specializations in MBA The other reason why MBA programs are becoming more valuable is the emergence of industry-specific concentrations. The old specialties such as finance and marketing are still valuable, but there are new specialties such as: available in many institutions. · \* Data science and business analytics. · \*Artificial intelligence management. · \* Sustainability and environmental management. · \* Supply chain and logistics management. · \* Healthcare administration · \*Online marketing and e-commerce. Such specialties enable students to match business education with the high growth areas of the global economy. Indicatively, the management of supply chains has emerged as a very important field due to the global trade and logistics disruptions. MBA graduates who have been trained in this specialization can be essential in streamlining distribution channels and supply chains across the world. ### The Networking Effect Although academic knowledge is essential, another great quality of MBA is the professional network which this program produces. MBA programs normally incorporate students of different industries, educational levels and geographical locations. This diversity provides a space within which ideas, opportunities, and collaborations thrive. Most startups, business alliances, and investments are founded on MBA networks and not through formal job placements. An overall example can explain this. Two MBA students of different backgrounds (one has a technology background and the other one a marketing background) resolve to work together on a digital platform to fill a market gap. Their complementary skills enable the venture to expand at a high rate. These partnerships emphasize the role of MBA networks in defining long-term career paths. ### The Right MBA Matters. Although having an MBA is a plus, it does not necessarily mean career success. The degree is worth much based on the standards of the institution, the curriculum relevance and the career objectives of the student. India has got a great variety of management institutes, such as international business schools and the other smaller colleges in the region. Faculty knowledge, industrial affiliation, internship programs, and alumni networks are some of the factors that must be considered keenly by prospective students during the course of choosing a program. The time of MBA is also crucial. The program tends to be more beneficial to professionals who have some work experience since they are able to relate the theoretical concepts with problems in the real world. ### The Future of the MBA Management education is changing in line with the global economy. There is a high probability that future MBA programs will incorporate technology, sustainability, and entrepreneurship more within their programs. Rather than generating merely corporate managers, contemporary MBA programs are also becoming more oriented towards innovators, startup founders, policy advisors, and leaders of digital transformation. Organizations require people who are capable of enduring uncertainty, planning, and leading teams in a world where industries are being shaken on a regular basis. That is exactly the potential an MBA is supposed to bring forward. To those students who are able to think strategically about the degree, the MBA is much more than just a qualification- it is an excellent platform on which to become a leader, reinvent, and grow professionally in the long run.

In the **first half of FY26**, the share rose further to **10%**, underscoring the sector’s resilience even amid global economic uncertainties. Beyond trade performance, the services sector has also played a vital role in supporting employment. Today, it accounts for nearly **30% of India’s total workforce**, and over the past six years it has generated close to **40 million jobs**, helping absorb labour market shocks during the post-pandemic recovery period. ### Key Sectors Driving Export Growth India’s services export strength is largely built on high-value, knowledge-intensive industries. Software services remain the backbone of this expansion, supported by a strong global demand for digital transformation solutions. Data from the Reserve Bank of India shows that **software services exports grew by 7.3% year-on-year in FY25**. Within this segment, computer services accounted for more than two-thirds of total software exports, while **business process outsourcing (BPO)** services continued to dominate IT-enabled service exports. Overall, software services contribute **more than 40% of India’s total services exports**. The segment has expanded rapidly, recording an average growth rate of **13.5% between FY23 and FY25**, far higher than earlier periods. At the same time, **professional and management consulting services** have become another major export engine. Their share of services exports has increased significantly in recent years, rising from **10.5% in FY16–FY20 to 18.3% during FY23–FY25**, reflecting India’s growing expertise in advisory, technology, and management services. Together, digital services, consulting, and business process management now account for **more than 65% of India’s services exports**, highlighting the country’s growing specialization in cross-border knowledge services. ### Budget 2026–27: Strengthening the Services Economy The Union Budget 2026–27 has introduced several measures aimed at strengthening the services ecosystem and enhancing India’s global competitiveness. A major focus of the budget is on **supporting IT and digital services**, which form the backbone of India’s export-oriented service economy. The government has proposed tax incentives and regulatory reforms to attract global cloud service providers to establish infrastructure in India. Foreign companies offering cloud services through **India-based data centres** may receive **tax holidays until 2047**, encouraging investment in digital infrastructure and positioning India as a major hub for global cloud services. In addition, the budget proposes simplifying compliance rules for IT service companies by consolidating different technology services under a single category. A **common safe harbour margin** will reduce tax uncertainty, while the threshold for eligibility has been raised substantially to support large IT exporters. ### Policy Reforms to Ease Global Business The government has also proposed faster processing for **Advance Pricing Agreements (APAs)**, which help companies determine fair pricing for cross-border transactions. Streamlining these agreements is expected to improve regulatory certainty and attract more global service providers to operate from India. At the same time, the budget has emphasized skill development to ensure India’s workforce remains globally competitive. Programmes are being introduced to train **multiskilled caregivers**, promote **medical tourism**, and expand opportunities in **traditional medicine systems such as AYUSH**. These initiatives could open new avenues for service exports, especially in sectors such as healthcare, wellness, and education. ### Tourism and Healthcare as New Export Engines The government also plans to strengthen India’s position in **medical value tourism**, a fast-growing global industry. Five regional medical tourism hubs will be developed in partnership with the private sector to attract international patients seeking affordable and high-quality treatment in India. Tourism infrastructure is also receiving renewed focus. Measures include training **10,000 tourist guides**, upgrading heritage sites, and developing cultural tourism circuits to increase international visitor inflows. Improved connectivity through proposed **high-speed rail corridors** linking major economic and cultural centres is expected to further support tourism-related services. ### Global Capability Centres Driving Export Growth Another major driver of India’s services exports is the rapid expansion of **Global Capability Centres (GCCs)**. These centres, established by multinational corporations to manage global operations from India, have grown rapidly in recent years. India currently hosts **over 1,700 GCCs**, employing more than **1.9 million professionals**. Initially focused on support functions, these centres now perform high-value activities such as **product development, artificial intelligence, data analytics, engineering design, and cybersecurity**. Their expansion has helped position India as the world’s largest hub for multinational companies’ offshore operations. ### India’s Expanding Digital and AI Ecosystem India’s strong digital talent base is another key factor supporting services export growth. According to the **Stanford AI Index**, the country ranks **second globally in AI skill penetration**, reflecting a large pool of technology professionals capable of delivering advanced digital services worldwide. International assessments also show steady improvements in India’s technology readiness. The country has climbed significantly in the **Frontier Technologies Readiness Index** of UNCTAD, reflecting growing capabilities in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and data analytics. With digital adoption rising rapidly, India’s **data centre capacity** is expected to expand dramatically over the coming decade, strengthening its role in global digital service delivery. ### Trade Agreements Expanding Global Opportunities India’s expanding network of trade agreements is also creating new opportunities for services exports. Recent agreements with economies such as the **United Kingdom, Australia, Oman, New Zealand, and the European Free Trade Association** are improving market access for Indian service providers. These agreements typically include provisions that allow easier mobility for professionals, simplified visa procedures, and expanded access across sectors such as IT services, finance, education, engineering, and consulting. For Indian professionals—from engineers and architects to chefs and yoga instructors—these agreements are opening doors to global employment opportunities and cross-border collaboration. ### Rising Investment in Services Foreign investment trends also highlight growing confidence in India’s services sector. In recent years, **more than 80% of total foreign direct investment** has flowed into services-related industries, including information technology, communications, and professional services. This surge in investment is strengthening India’s digital infrastructure, boosting innovation, and expanding the country’s capacity to deliver high-value services to global markets. ### The Road Ahead India’s services sector is expected to remain a key engine of economic growth in the coming decades. With strong digital capabilities, a large skilled workforce, and growing global demand for knowledge-based services, the country is well positioned to expand its share in global services trade. Government initiatives aim to further strengthen this trajectory, with the long-term goal of securing **10% of global services trade by 2047** as part of the broader **Viksit Bharat** vision. As technology, talent, and global partnerships continue to converge, India’s services sector is not only transforming the country’s economy but also creating new opportunities for businesses, professionals, and entrepreneurs on the global stage. **Categories:** business --- ### [Chula Students Win Gen Z Wealth Program, Study in Singapore](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/education/chula-students-win-gen-z-wealth-program-study-in-singapore/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** Chulalongkorn University students who won the Gen Z Wealth Delegates program traveled on a study visit to Singapore, Asia’s financial hub, from January 27 to 29.

Cells function much like complex cities, with different organelles performing specialized roles. Mitochondria generate energy, the endoplasmic reticulum acts as a transport network, and lysosomes manage waste disposal. For cells to function efficiently, these organelles must communicate through structures known as membrane contact sites. One of the most abundant of these interactions occurs between the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria at structures called ER-mitochondria contact sites (ERMCS). Disruptions in ERMCS organization have been linked to several serious health conditions, including Cancer, Diabetes, Obesity, and Neurodegenerative Diseases. However, scientists have had limited understanding of the mechanisms that regulate these structures. In the new study, researchers screened a library of FDA-approved drugs using human and mouse cell lines to identify compounds capable of influencing ERMCS formation. They discovered that fedratinib significantly increased the formation of these contact sites. Notably, the effect was reversible once the drug was removed from the cells. The team determined that fedratinib works by inhibiting the protein BRD4, which regulates how cells read DNA during transcription. This inhibition activates a transcriptional pathway that promotes the formation of ER-mitochondria contact sites. > *“Over the past few decades, researchers have seen that cell organelles work in conjunction and they need to talk to each other to do that,” said **Yatrik Shah, Professor of Molecular and Integrative Physiology and member of the Rogel Cancer Center at the University of Michigan**. “By identifying this signaling pathway, we can better understand how these contact sites are sustained.”* Using advanced electron microscopy, the researchers also identified notable structural changes in ERMCS sites following fedratinib treatment. The analysis revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum formed a three-dimensional envelope around mitochondria in certain cells. Approximately 30% of mitochondria displayed structural alterations, suggesting that mitochondria with extensive contact sites may support specialized metabolic pathways. Interestingly, similar structural patterns have previously been observed in cells infected with COVID‑19 caused by SARS‑CoV‑2 and in metastatic melanoma cells. > *“There were different populations of mitochondria that differed in their degree of contact with the endoplasmic reticulum,” said **Drew Stark, a graduate researcher and the study’s first author**. “Those with abundant contact sites may be supporting distinct metabolic processes within the cell.”* Researchers are now exploring whether these effects can also be observed in mouse models and how these mitochondrial changes influence metabolism and disease progression. The findings may open new directions for studying metabolic regulation and developing therapies targeting cellular communication pathways. The research was supported by multiple grants from the National Institutes of Health and collaborating institutions.

In early 2023, I received an opportunity to work in the DeClerck Laboratory at CHLA as a volunteer,” **Chauhan says*****.** Working in the lab led by Cancer and Blood Disease Institute physician and investigator **Yves DeClerck, MD**, allowed Chauhan to learn about extracellular vesicles, membrane-bound particles released by cells and found in all types of body fluids. She also learned that these small particles are actively released by tumor cells and play a critical role in the formation of the pre-metastatic niche (PMN), ultimately contributing to metastatic progression. Owing to their ability to target recipient cells and induce phenotypic changes, EVs serve as key mediators of intercellular communication and hold significant potential as therapeutic tools. *“It was very interesting to me because it’s a field in which research is evolving nonstop and every day you find something new,” Chauhan explains.* During this time, she met **Paolo Neviani, PhD, director of the Extracellular Vesicle and Nanoparticle Analytics (EV-NP) Core at CHLA**. Chauhan soon joined this core as a research specialist. *“My responsibilities involve isolating extracellular vesicles from different biological fluid samples, such as blood, plasma, and urine, and then characterizing and analyzing those vesicles for specific research projects,”* Chauhan says. Currently, via the core, she is working on a project for regenerative medicine investigator Ching-Ling (Ellen) Lien, PhD, exploring the role of extracellular vesicles within zebrafish hearts. Chauhan says she is grateful for the supportive environment she’s found at CHLA. *“With everything I do, I feel encouraged and that helps me grow,” she explains. “It’s a very good thing to be in an environment where you see yourself thriving.”* [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ### [16-Year Study Finds Major Health Burden in Single-Ventricle Heart](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/16-year-study-finds-major-health-burden-in-single-ventricle-heart/) **Published:** March 14, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Durham, North Carolina, Mar 14**: Children born with single‑ventricle heart disease, a rare and serious heart defect, often undergo multiple surgeries in their first years of life. A new study shows the challenges for these children can last well into adolescence and sometimes throughout their lives. Researchers from Duke Health and the Pediatric Heart Network followed 549 children with single ventricle heart disease for 16 years and found that 87% either died or developed a major health problem over time. Only 12% reached adolescence without a significant complication. These findings, published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology March 11, give families a clearer picture of what to expect and offer the medical community a new direction for improving care. > *“Now that we understand these trajectories and the risk factors for suboptimal outcomes, we can counsel families more clearly and tailor therapies to each child,” said **Kevin D. Hill**, M.D., corresponding author, chief of the division of pediatric cardiology and professor in the Department of Pediatrics at Duke University School of Medicine.* The study introduces a new way of evaluating long-term health called a global rank score. It’s a measure developed with input from families that captures what matters most to them, including daily functioning, quality of life, and heart performance. One of the most important findings for families is that most children will continue to need specialized care long after surgery. The study found high rates of adaptive behavior delays, quality of life challenges, and reduced heart function in many patients, often emerging gradually as they grow. Researchers also found that premature babies faced the steepest uphill climb. More than 60% of premature infants in the study died, and only 3% reached adolescence without major problems. The data suggest that supporting healthy pregnancies and preventing preterm birth could make a meaningful difference. For clinicians, the study provides new clues that may help tailor early surgical decisions. Although the two main shunt types used in infancy showed similar long-term outcomes overall, babies who had moderate or severe tricuspid valve leakage before surgery did worse with the right ventricle shunt, a finding that could guide future decision making. Just as importantly, the study revealed substantial differences among hospitals. Some centers had lower early mortality, while others excelled in long-term follow-up and rehabilitation. This variation highlights opportunities to share best practices and improve care, no matter where a child is treated. > *“These children need lifelong comprehensive care, including medical, developmental, and school support,” **Hill** said. “It’s not like they get surgery and are ‘fixed.’ Ongoing, coordinated services are essential to help them thrive.”* The study emphasizes that children with single-ventricle heart disease often face challenges in multiple areas of life. The research team hopes these findings will help families feel better prepared, while giving healthcare teams a roadmap for improving outcomes through physical therapy, mental health support, school accommodations, exercise programs, and strong long-term monitoring.

The findings, published in the The Journal of Urology, suggest that baseline testosterone may serve as a useful clinical marker to better stratify risk and tailor monitoring strategies for patients choosing active surveillance. > “Active surveillance is a safe and effective option for many men with earl y-stage prostate cancer. However, identifying which patients may be more likely to experience progression remains a key challenge,” said corresponding author **Justin R. Gregg, M.D., associate professor of Urology and Health Disparities Research.** “Understanding how hormonal factors influence prostate cancer biology may help us refine surveillance strategies.” What did the study reveal about testosterone levels and cancer progression? Researchers found that prostate cancer patients with low baseline testosterone levels (300 ng/dl and lower) had a significantly higher likelihood of their cancer progressing to Grade group 3 or higher, which represents a more aggressive disease. In the retrospective cohort study, researchers analyzed clinical and pathological data from more than 900 men undergoing surveillance. Low testosterone levels were associated with an increase in the likelihood of disease progression, even after accounting for other factors including age, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), body mass index (BMI), and tumor density and size. Should men with prostate cancer be concerned about low testosterone? Active surveillance is recommended for patients with low-risk prostate cancer, allowing physicians to closely monitor the disease and delay or avoid treatment unless the cancer shows signs of becoming more aggressive. Surveillance remains safe and effective. The study does not suggest that low testosterone causes aggressive cancer, but rather that there is an association that could help guide monitoring and decision-making. Future studies are needed to confirm these findings and to determine if testosterone level may be a useful marker of future progression risk in individual patients.

This measure is taken due to the significant surge in fuel prices following the ongoing geopolitical issues in the Middle East. IATA’s Jet Fuel Monitor indicates an 85+% increase in fuel prices for the region. Aviation Turbine Fuel represents a significant share of airlines’ operating cost. This sudden and steep increase will have a material impact on all airlines’ costs and network, including IndiGo’s. While offsetting the entire impact of this fuel price surge requires a very substantial adjustment to fares, IndiGo has introduced a relatively smaller amount as a Fuel Charge keeping in mind the consequential burden on customers. Starting 14th March 2026, 00:01 hrs, overall prices for all new bookings on IndiGo flights will include the following additional Fuel Charge, per sector. IndiGo regrets the inconvenience resulting from this additional charge and reiterates that the measure has been driven by a sudden and substantial change in the operating environment. IndiGo will continue to monitor the situation and make relevant adjustments as and when appropriate. IndiGo remains committed to giving wings to the nation by offering affordable, convenient and consistent travel to customers.

New crushing technology developed by Australian company Gyratory Roller Solutions Pty Ltd (GRolls) and being investigated by Adelaide University researchers is showing significant advantages over conventional grinding techniques. GRolls Director and Adelaide University PhD candidate Mark Drechsler said the crushing technology reduces the need for grinding and milling (known as comminution), saving operating costs and reducing the industry’s carbon footprint at the same time. > “Ore crushing and grinding are traditionally one of the most energy-intensive processes in mining, accounting for more than 1% of global energy use and up to 80% of a mine’s site power consumption,” **said Drechsler, who is based at Adelaide University’s Future Industries Institute (FII).** The GRolls crushing technology uses a unique combination of pulsed compression, tension and shear forces to break down ore. This configuration reduces more than 40% of particles to below 425 microns in a single pass and generates less than 14% of fine particles smaller than 75 microns. The technology performs particularly well with finer ore feeds under 2.36mm. > “Our testing shows that GRolls can process hard porphyry copper-gold ores while using significantly less energy and no grinding, making it more sustainable and cost-effective.” When modelled against an existing conventional grinding operation at a copper-gold operation in NSW, the GRolls circuit demonstrated a 20% reduction in energy consumption and nearly halved the total comminution cost. > “These are significant savings,” **Drechsler said**. “Not only do you reduce power use, but you eliminate the cost of grinding minerals. There are also potential savings in water usage and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.” With ore grades declining and deposits becoming more complex and remote, the new technology offers a viable alternative for the mining industry,” according to FII metallurgist Dr George Abaka-Wood, who supervised Drechsler’s project. > “The team is committed to showing the downstream benefits of using dry crushing technology in collaboration with other innovative technologies to address the need for more energy-efficient and higher processing efficiencies within mineral processing flowsheets,” **he said.** Co-author of the study, Research Leader Minerals and Resource Engineering at the Future Industries Institute, Professor Bill Skinner, said the GRolls technology offered a compact, scalable simple solution that can be used dry or wet, in standalone units or integrated into existing circuits. > “This could be a game changer for mineral processing,” **Prof Skinner said**. “It offers an opportunity to simplify processing circuits while improving sustainability across the board”. GRolls hopes to commercialise the technology in the next 12 months with the help of a $300,000 South Australian Government Seed-Start grant.

The event was chaired by UNESCO Chair Holder Prof. Dr. Vishwanath D. Karad – Founder & Chief Patron, MAEER’s MIT, Pune; President, MIT World Peace University; and Creator of the World Peace Dome. Video messages were shared by Shri Devendra Fadnavis, Hon’ble Chief Minister of Maharashtra; Sunetra Ajit Pawar, Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra; Dattatray Vithoba Bharne, Minister of Agriculture of Maharashtra; Lt. Gen. Dhiraj Seth, PVSM, AVSM, General Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Southern Command, Pune; and Chandrakant Patil, Minister of Higher and Technical Education of Maharashtra. Meanwhile, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, attended the event virtually. > **Shivraj Singh Chouhan said,** “Today’s youth face intense competition, academic pressure, and the distractions of the digital world, often drifting away from the deeper meaning of life. The Life Transformation Centre offers a powerful answer by reconnecting young people with nature, agriculture, discipline, and spirituality. As the son of a farmer, I deeply resonate with the vision of ‘Connecting the Soul to the Soil.’ When young people experience the value of soil, food, and hard work, they develop respect for farmers, nature, and society. This initiative reflects the spirit of experiential learning envisioned in India’s National Education Policy and will help nurture responsible, confident, and nation-building youth for a stronger India.” > > **Shri Devendra Fadnavis said,** “I extend my heartfelt congratulations on the inauguration of the Life Transformation Centre at Boribel, Pune. The land of Maharashtra has long been a source of inspiration for saints, social reformers, and nation builders. From the spiritual legacy of Sant Dnyaneshwar and Sant Tukaram Maharaj to the transformative vision of Mahatma Jyotirao Phule and Krantijyoti Savitribai Phule, this land has upheld the tradition of linking knowledge with service, ethics, and the welfare of society. The Life Transformation Centre, built on the pillars of Agriculture and Nature, Physical Fitness and Sports, Team Building and Leadership, Patriotism and Nation Building, and Spirituality and Peace, will help students develop confidence, discipline, leadership, and compassion.” > > **Swami Ramdev said,** “Today, I feel immense joy to be part of the inauguration of the Life Transformation Centre. Institutions like MIT World Peace University are doing a remarkable job by nurturing not just academic excellence but also character, values, and national responsibility among young people. Educating lakhs of students and guiding them from personal development to nation-building is a great service to society. I come from a humble farming background and understand how powerful education and self-discipline can be in transforming lives. Every young person carries immense potential, but it must be guided by a larger purpose beyond personal success. We should not limit our dreams to jobs or salaries; rather, we should aspire to contribute to society and the nation. Through initiatives like the Life Transformation Centre, students will learn the importance of nature, self-discipline, health, and leadership. I congratulate Dr. Vishwanath Karad, Dr. Rahul Karad, and the entire MIT family for creating such a transformative platform for youth.” > > Speaking about the vision behind the initiative**, Dr. Rahul Karad said, “**This initiative has been envisioned as a unique platform where students can reconnect with nature, rural life, and the deeper values of Indian civilization through experiential learning. The centre is built on five pillars—agriculture and nature, spirituality and peace, sports and physical fitness, team building and leadership, and patriotism and nation building. Through this initiative, we aim to shape responsible, self-aware, and socially conscious youth. I believe this centre will serve as a transformative laboratory for education, inspiring students to contribute meaningfully to society and to the vision of a harmonious and sustainable world.” The programmes at the Life Transformation Centre are structured around five key pillars—Agriculture and Nature, Physical Fitness and Sports, Team Building and Leadership, Patriotism and Nation Building, and Spirituality and Peace. Through these pillars, the centre aims to nurture students’ physical, intellectual, and emotional well-being while instilling a strong sense of responsibility towards society and the nation. A distinctive aspect of the centre is its emphasis on simplicity and mindful living. In an age dominated by mobile phones, social media, and rising stress levels, the centre promotes the principle of minimalism, encouraging participants to adopt simpler lifestyles, reduce distractions, and focus on meaningful aspects of life. By integrating nature-based learning, leadership development, and value-driven education, the Life Transformation Centre seeks to create a new paradigm in higher education. The initiative aims to empower young individuals to become responsible citizens and contribute meaningfully towards building a stronger India and a more harmonious world.

Daniel Sussman, M.D., leads a gastroenterology high-risk prevention clinic at Sylvester. “We help identify people who are at increased risk for cancer,” he explains, adding that the clinic facilitates genetic testing to see if there’s a heritable cause. Either way, the clinic then helps patients with personalized prevention plans. **Sylvester Researcher Wins Stanley J. Glaser Award for Colorectal Cancer Immunotherapy** Kevin Van der Jeught, Ph.D., has received a $72,000 Stanley J. Glaser Foundation Award to advance an experimental mRNA-based immunotherapy strategy for colorectal cancer. His research aims to boost the body’s immune response to anti–PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors. The project is designed to expand the number of patients who can benefit from immunotherapy and move the strategy toward an early-phase clinical trial at Sylvester in the coming years. The work reflects growing interest in using mRNA technologies to train immune cells to better detect and eliminate cancer. Breast Cancer Exercise During Breast Cancer Treatment Measurably Improves Quality of Life Breast cancer treatment saves lives, but also can cause fatigue, muscle loss, emotional distress and other health issues for patients. Now, a Sylvester-led study published recently in The Lancet Healthy Longevity has shown that exercise during chemotherapy for breast cancer not only rebuilds strength, but also measurably improves quality of life, helping women improve mood, energy and overall well-being while receiving care. “Chemotherapy places stress on every system in the body,” **explains LaShae D. Rolle, MPH, CDH, lead study author.** “Quality of life becomes a central outcome during treatment, not something to consider only after it ends.” Prostate Cancer Bloodstream Clues Reveal the Role Androgen Receptor Alterations Play in Advanced Prostate Cancer A new Sylvester study using serial liquid biopsies to track how metastatic prostate cancer evolves under treatment pressure found that androgen receptor (AR) alterations consistently emerged and were linked to poorer outcomes across therapies. The findings, published last month in Clinical Cancer Research, suggest that a single genomic test at diagnosis may be insufficient for managing advanced prostate cancer and support using real-time molecular testing to guide personalized care. **Pancreatic Cancer Sylvester Researcher Wins Stanley J. Glaser Award for Pancreatic Cancer Immunotherapy** Jashodeep Datta, M.D., a surgical oncologist and immunotherapy researcher at Sylvester, has received a Stanley J. Glaser Foundation Research Award for his work advancing pancreatic cancer immunotherapy. His research focuses on decoding immune‑driven treatment resistance to develop more precise therapies and deliver them earlier in the treatment course for patients eligible for surgery. The award will support a new treatment strategy that blocks the interleukin-1 (IL-1) inflammatory pathway, which tumors can use to weaken the body’s immune response. Datta’s team plans to translate this work into an investigator-initiated clinical trial evaluating the combination approach for patients with operable pancreatic cancer. **Community Outreach Dolphins Cancer Challenge XVI Surpasses $100 Million for Sylvester, United Community in Fight Against Cancer** The 2026 Dolphins Cancer Challenge surpassed $100 million raised for Sylvester, marking a historic milestone for the community-powered event that supports cancer research and patient care. Since its launch in 2010, the annual ride, run and walk has brought together thousands of survivors, supporters and community leaders united in the fight against cancer. One hundred percent of participant-raised funds directly support breakthrough research, innovative technologies and personalized treatments at Sylvester. The milestone underscores how sustained community investment continues to accelerate discoveries aimed at improving outcomes for patients and cancer survivors. Game Changer: Taking Cancer Screening to the Streets For many South Floridians, cancer screening does not start in a clinic. It begins when a Sylvester Game Changer vehicle pulls into their neighborhood. This mobile outreach strives to meet people where they are by bringing cancer screenings, education and research to their communities. “We are committed to reducing cancer burden through preventive care, including free screenings, educational programs, counseling and referral services,**” says Erin Kobetz, PhD, MPH,** associate director for community outreach and engagement, vice president for health promotion and chief wellbeing officer at Sylvester.

The event brought together government representatives, partners, volunteers, and learners to celebrate nearly two decades of advancing girls’ education in rural and educationally underserved communities. The ceremony honoured learners who completed their Class 10 examinations, many of whom returned to education after years away from school. Certificates were awarded in recognition of their achievements, while interactive sessions highlighted powerful stories of resilience and determination shared by learners, Preraks, and Team Balika volunteers. > Speaking at the event, **Kajal Jawla, IAS, Collector, Zilla Panchayat, encouraged families to prioritise girls’ education.** “People often ask, ‘What will a girl achieve by studying—will she become a Collector?’ My answer is simple—why not? I come from a farmer’s family, and despite limited resources, my parents ensured we had the opportunity to study. With their belief and the support of society, I was able to fulfil my dream of becoming a Collector. I urge all parents to educate their daughters and give them the opportunity to pursue their dreams. An educated daughter can transform not only her own life but the future of society,” she said. Congratulating the organisation, Padma Vilochan Shukla, IPS, highlighted the importance of education in regions affected by migration. “My heartfelt congratulations to Educate Girls for the remarkable work you are doing. Having worked in tribal regions such as Jhabua, I have seen how migration often forces many children to leave school and travel with their parents for labour. It is important that we continue to encourage children to stay in school and pursue their education. When children succeed through education, they bring pride to their families, their state, and the nation,” he said. **Celebrating ‘Second-Chance’ Success through Pragati** A key highlight of the event was the recognition of learners who passed the Class 10 examinations through Pragati, Educate Girls’ second-chance education program. It is India’s largest second-chance learning initiative for learners aged 15–29 who have dropped out due to societal and systemic barriers. Through village-based learning camps, the program strengthens academic competencies while also building life skills and confidence, enabling participants to complete their Grade 10 certification through State Open Schools. This year, more than 6,000 learners have been enrolled for their Class 10 examinations. Since 2017, Educate Girls’ Vidya program has supported over four lakh girls and young women to enrol in secondary education, while Pragati, launched last year, is expanding access to second-chance learning opportunities for those who had previously dropped out. The event was attended by 21 learners, 26 Preraks, and 20 Team Balika volunteers, along with partners and community members. Many of the learners recognised during the ceremony have overcome barriers such as restrictive social norms, household responsibilities, and long gaps in education. For several of them, it was the first public recognition of their achievements, inspiring other girls in their villages to return to education. The program also featured a panel discussion moderated by Vikram Solanki, Director – Operations, where learners, Team Balika volunteers, and Preraks shared their experiences of returning to education. Participants also witnessed an interactive demonstration of Educate Girls’ remedial learning tools designed to help learners successfully re-enter and thrive within the education system. > **Gayatri Nair Lobo, CEO of Educate Girls,** reflected on the organisation’s journey and the role of community support in driving change. She said, “Eighteen years ago, we began with a simple belief—that every girl deserves the opportunity to learn. Today, with the dedication of our Team Balika volunteers and Preraks, millions of girls and thousands of young women have been able to return to education and continue their learning journeys. Behind every exam result is a story of courage and determination. Our focus is on bringing girls back to education and ensuring they thrive, gain confidence, and become drivers of change.” > > Emphasising the importance of sustaining children’s education, **Ram Kumar Vaidya, Assistant Director, Madhya Pradesh State Open School, added,** “Enrolling children in school is only the first step; we must also support them to continue learning. Migration often disrupts children’s education and forces many to drop out. When daughters succeed through education, their achievements bring pride not only to their families but to the entire community. We must all work together to ensure education for every child,” he said. **Educate Girls** Educate Girls is an award-winning non-profit working to ensure that every girl in India’s rural and educationally marginalised communities has access to quality education. In 2025, Educate Girls became the first Indian organisation to receive the Ramon Magsaysay Award, Asia’s highest honour. Since 2007, Educate Girls have partnered with state governments and local communities to identify out-of-school girls, support their enrolment and retention, and strengthen foundational learning for children. Where formal schooling was not an option, our second-chance program helped adolescent girls and young women complete their Grade 10 and 12 education while building life skills and agency. With a network of more than 55,000 community volunteers, Educate Girls has mobilised the enrolment of enrolled over 20 lakhs girls and improved learning outcomes for over 24 lakhs children across 30,000 villages in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar. By 2035, our vision is to empower 10 million learners.

UWM alum Libby Ives traversed Antarctica’s ice landscapes to study glacial sediments laid down more than 300 million years ago, but years later, she found herself even farther afield — literally, if not scientifically — when she applied her sedimentary skills to analyzing Martian landscapes for NASA. By studying ancient landscapes, her work offers valuable insights about a planet’s environment — past, present and future. But the Waukesha, Wisconsin native didn’t always know geology was her path. “I knew I wanted to do science, and I knew I wanted to be outside a lot,” Ives said. She discovered her passion for geosciences as an undergraduate at Northern Michigan University, where she was drawn in by the interdisciplinary nature of the field. “You get to use your physics, biology and chemistry knowledge, and you get to put it all together to tell the story of the Earth and how things came to be.” Reading the rocks of Earth and Mars After graduation, she planned to take a few additional classes at UW-Milwaukee as a post-baccalaureate student, but then an opportunity arose to travel to Iceland for a field expedition with UWM professor Tom Hooyer, followed by an offer to join his lab as a graduate researcher. She jumped in, studying glacial geology for her master’s degree. After Hooyer passed away in 2016, Ives finished her project at Iowa State University. After a stint away from academia, Ives returned to UWM for her geosciences PhD. Her advisor, John Isbell, was gearing up for an expedition to Antarctica to study sedimentary rocks from the Late Paleozoic Ice Age, which was the last time the planet was cold enough to have ice sheets at both poles — over 300 million years ago. The trip unexpectedly landed Ives in an IMAX documentary. A Chicago-based film company had partnered with the Field Museum and the Natural History Museums of Los Angeles County to produce “Dinosaurs of Antarctica,” following the paleontologists on the same field team as Ives. “They were looking for people to help tell the story of Antarctica’s deep history,” she said. “It was a right place, right time sort of thing.” While in Milwaukee, Ives worked with the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey on a geologic mapping project, an experience that would prepare her for another big opportunity. In 2022, Ives joined NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory as a postdoctoral researcher with the Mars 2020 mission. Her role: interpret images taken by the Perseverance rover to reconstruct the geologic history of Mars. “I’m a physical sedimentologist,” she explained. “So, I think about how individual grains of sand or mud were transported — by air, water or glaciers — and what that tells us about the environment that deposited them.” Returning to her roots Now back in the Midwest, Ives is a geologist with the Michigan Geological Survey, where she’s helping build a new research program on the state’s glacial geology. She’s also teaching upper-level geology at her undergrad alma mater. After a career that’s spanned continents and planets, Ives is glad to have landed somewhere she can grow roots. Yet the impacts of her work reach far and wide, revealing how landscapes respond to climate shifts, informing how geological resources are managed, and deepening our understanding of Mars’ geology and past climate.

From birds and primates to insects, fish and amphibians, animals broadcast acoustic “advertisements” to defend territory, attract mates and reveal their physical condition. Because these calls can reflect traits such as body size, strength or health, they play a powerful role in sexual selection and help shape how species compete and reproduce. Parasites can influence these mating signals. Infections drain energy and trigger immune responses that weaken the body, altering traits tied to mating success, such as stamina and the quality of acoustic calls, sometimes disrupting how sounds are produced or perceived. Adding to the complexity, some parasites infect hosts through predator-prey interactions. This means individuals that are larger or more effective at foraging – qualities often preferred by potential mates – may actually face a higher risk of infection. However, studies in amphibians have produced mixed results. To explore this paradox, Florida Atlantic University researchers studied green treefrogs (Dryophytes cinereus) and oral frog tongueworm parasites (Halipegus occidualis) that live in the mouth and throat of frogs, to test whether food-web–transmitted parasites influence mating calls and female mate choice in a natural population. During the breeding season, male green treefrogs gather in loud choruses around ponds, inflating their vocal sacs to produce repeated “honking” calls from nearby vegetation. Females use these calls to choose mates, typically favoring lower-frequency, faster and sometimes longer calls – traits that often signal a larger or healthier male. Pulse patterns in the calls also help females recognize their own species. Researchers recorded the calls of male green treefrogs in the wild and counted the number of tongueworm parasites in each frog’s mouth. They then analyzed the recordings using audio software to measure features of the calls, such as frequency, length and pulse structure. They aggregated calls into three infection categories: uninfected, moderately infected (five to eight adult worms), and heavily infected (more than nine adult worms). To see how females responded, the team conducted two-choice playback experiments, broadcasting pairs of male calls and observing which one they approached. Results of the study, published in the journal Current Zoology, suggest that choosy female green treefrogs may face a croak conundrum: the call traits they prefer – such as lower frequencies – are typically produced by larger males, which may also be more likely to carry parasites. Tongueworm infections do influence the calls males use to attract mates, but not in the simple way scientists expected. Rather than just weakening signals, the parasites altered several call traits, creating a complex pattern that can change how females evaluate potential partners. > “Parasites don’t always tell a simple story about health or weakness,” **said Sarah R. Goodnight, Ph.D., first author,** a Ph.D. graduate of FAU Harbor Branch, and a postdoctoral fellow at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center. “In this system, the frogs most successful at finding food may also be the ones most likely to pick up parasites. That means females are evaluating signals that can simultaneously advertise both strength and risk.” The findings challenge the long-standing Hamilton–Zuk hypothesis, which predicts that parasites reduce the quality of sexual signals and that females should prefer less-infected males. Instead, the pattern was more complex. Larger male frogs – typically favored by females – also carried more tongueworm parasites, likely because males that eat more prey accumulate infections over time. Parasites subtly reshaped male calls: heavily infected frogs produced lower-frequency calls, a trait females usually prefer, but their calls were shorter, which can signal lower stamina. Playback experiments revealed a similar pattern. Females avoided the most heavily infected males but often preferred males with moderate infections over uninfected ones, suggesting they weigh multiple signals at once – balancing traits linked to size and attractiveness against the risk of parasite infection. Call duration appeared to play a particularly important role in this decision-making. Longer calls generally came from males with fewer parasites and greater energetic reserves, signaling vigor and lower infection risk. However, the relationship wasn’t entirely straightforward: some moderately infected males produced longer calls than uninfected males, possibly because successful foragers accumulated both energy reserves and parasites. > “Mate choice is rarely based on a single trait,” **said Michael W. McCoy, Ph.D., co-author, associate director, FAU School of Environmental, Coastal, and Ocean Sustainability, and professor of quantitative ecology, D**epartment of Biological Sciences, FAU Charles E. Schmidt College of Science and FAU Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute. “Our results show that parasites can reshape the information animals use when choosing partners by subtly changing multiple aspects of a male’s call. Females may be responding to several signals at once, some linked to desirable traits like size and others hinting at infection. Understanding that complexity is critical for explaining how sexual selection actually works in natural populations.” The study reveals that parasites influence mate selection by altering multiple traits in male calls, creating a complex signal environment. Rather than just diminishing attractiveness, infections introduce nuanced cues that females must interpret, revealing how parasites subtly guide mating decisions and shape sexual selection in wild populations. **Study co-author is Ellen F. Titus with The Nature Conservancy.** The research was supported by the International Herpetological Symposium awarded to Goodnight, The Sigma Xi Scientific Research Honor Society awarded to Goodnight, and the National Science Foundation awarded to McCoy.

Today, that first patient returned for the unveiling of a sculpture that pays tribute to everyone who took part in the massive effort to care for those patients, and to respond in many other ways to the pandemic over multiple years. Just two years after receiving a double lung transplant at University Hospital, Paul DeWyse became U-M’s, and the state of Michigan’s, first hospitalized COVID-19 patient. But he survived, thanks to the specialized intensive care of a U-M team. Members of that team and hundreds of other faculty, staff, learners and supporters joined him at today’s ceremony in the hospital courtyard to mark the anniversary and see the sculpture. Titled Hearts and Hands – A Tribute to Health Care Workers, the sculpture was created by Vermont artist James Sardonis and funded by donations. It features two bronze figures in clinical attire, sitting apart on a marble bench, each with an arm outstretched toward the other. Their fingertips, barely touching, form a heart. Speaking at the unveiling ceremony, **U-M Health Chief Nurse and Operations Executive Julie Ishak,** M.S.N., R.N., NP-BC, said the sculpture stands as a symbol of the collective strength and compassion of all involved in the COVID-19 response. “For frontline workers, courage meant showing up day after day despite exhaustion and anxiety. We became the bridge between isolated patients and their loved ones. We held phones to our patients’ ears so that if they could not recover, they could hear their loved one’s voices one more time,” she said. “We leaned on one another, even when we could only see each other’s eyes through all of our protective gear.” Tribute to the entire COVID-19 response By the last week of 2020, those frontline workers were the first to receive the new COVID-19 vaccine, through a massive campaign that even harnessed Michigan Stadium as a vaccination site. In addition to the frontline patient care and support teams, the sculpture also stands in tribute to researchers who pivoted rapidly to study the novel coronavirus and its impact on the body, and the pandemic’s ripple effects throughout society. It also salutes the generosity of community members who responded immediately in March 2020 to donate protective gear, food and other supplies for frontline workers, as well as donors who supported research funds. A Michigan Medicine-sponsored food drive that began in spring 2020 to support community members in need during the pandemic disruption brought in more than 313,000 meals’ worth of nonperishable food and monetary donations for Food Gatherers. Michigan Medicine has kept up the effort with a Million Meals Mission to raise funds and is close to hitting the goal. About the sculpture U-M Health joins the University of Vermont Medical Center and University of North Carolina Health in installing the Sardonis sculpture as a tribute to all those involved in the COVID-19 response. “To me, this piece is all about communicating love,” **Sardonis said. “**That’s what the figures convey in the sculpture and that’s what health care workers do, nationwide, every day.” He adds, “I would love to see \[the sculpture\] all over the country.” The installation at U-M Health happened in part because of a Vermont connection: U-M Medical School Department of Surgery Chair Justin Dimick, M.D., M.P.H., is from the same Vermont town of Randolph where Sardonis has his studio. “Growing up in Vermont, I was familiar with the beauty, meaning, and power of Sardonis’ work,” **said Dimick.** “When I saw the tribute first installed at the University of Vermont, I was moved by the way the Hearts and Hands sculpture recognizes the sacrifices of health care workers during pandemic. When I saw the second installation, and the possibility of more, I knew we needed to share this opportunity to memorialize the front-line workers who saved so many lives with their compassion and skill—and continue to do so every day. Thanks to our generous donors, we were able to participate and bring permanent visibility to this powerful symbol of gratitude.” The entire sculpture is Vermont-made, with bronze casting done by Vermont Custom Casting, enlarging of Sardonis’ original figures by Campbell Plaster and Iron, and the bench made by Vermont Verde Antique from marble quarried in Vermont. An ongoing COVID-19 response The COVID-19 response continues at U-M, with hundreds of people with the disease treated in U-M Health’s Ann Arbor hospitals in just the past few months, and others receiving outpatient care. Although vaccination and treatment protocols have reduced the risk of severe illness and death for most people in recent years, the disease can still cause serious issues or even prove fatal in some patients. Those at highest risk include infants and toddlers, people over age 65, people of any age with immune systems weakened by health conditions, people taking medications that affect the immune system such as those used to treat cancer or after organ transplants, and those who have not kept up to date with annual vaccination. U-M Health continues to follow vaccination recommendations from the state of Michigan and major professional societies, which recommend a dose of COVID-19 vaccine every year for everyone over the age of six months. A second dose is recommended each year for those over age 65 and those at very high risk of severe illness including people who are immunocompromised. U-M Health’s experts continue to update clinical guides for treatment of people with COVID-19 and other infectious diseases, and make them available to clinicians worldwide.For those experiencing the long-term effects of what is sometimes called Long COVID, U-M Health offers a Post-COVID-19 Clinic for adults.

Social norms like this are difficult to change, but Rutgers Health researchers found that when parents take photos of the food available to them, their perceptions shift and they begin to question this norm. In their study, published in the journal Preventing Chronic Disease, researchers gave cameras to 25 mothers of preschoolers living in Newark, N.J., and asked them to take pictures of the food in the local neighborhood, such as food found in grocery markets, restaurants and social events. The mothers took photographs two weeks before and after a nutrition education session on ultra-processed food. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which sponsors the journal, young people ages 1 to 18 consume about 61.9% of their daily calories from ultra-processed foods and beverages that are high in sodium, additives, sugar or unhealthy fats. “Ultra-processed foods are especially prevalent in underserved communities, where families are bombarded by advertising and fast food ” **said Pamela Rothpletz-Puglia,** professor at Rutgers School of Health Professions and an author of the study. “When we socialize children to eat ultra-processed food it is difficult to change once they reach adulthood.” The mothers submitted 814 photographs. When the photographs were discussed, Rothpletz-Puglia said, “They saw how foods like sugary cereals and drinks, chicken nuggets, French fries and packaged foods are designed to appeal to young children and are aggressively marketed in brightly colored packaging placed at children’s eye level. They also began to examine ingredient lists and to comment on the number of fast food opportunities compared to fewer healthier food restaurant options.” Researchers used Photovoice – a method in which people use photography to document and discuss the challenges they face in their lives – and discovered the process did more than just gather data: It changed the mothers’ perception of the food available to them. “The mothers went from being passive consumers to consumers who questioned the choices they are being given at the market and elsewhere in the community,” **said Rothpletz-Puglia, adding** the study shows the potential for participatory methods of research in which participants are given the tools to analyze their surroundings to evoke grassroots advocacy for change. The mothers’ suggestions for change – more local markets such as Afro-Caribbean markets, which have less direct advertising than large grocery stores, more opportunities to purchase fresh seafood from local markets, leveraging cultural foodways and empowering community advocacy – were highlighted in a Photovoice exhibit at Leaguer’s Inc. in Newark on December 13, 2024 that showcased the photos taken during the study and audio with comments from the mothers, which were attended by academics, local leaders, community members and representatives from various agencies. The study was funded by Rutgers Equity Alliance for Community Health initiative awarded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to improve health outcomes in underserved New Jersey communities.

Established in 1958 to develop India’s iron ore resources, NMDC produced around 10 MT in 1978. Over the decades, output has expanded fivefold to reach a historic 50 MT in FY 2025–26, reflecting the company’s steady transformation into the backbone of India’s iron ore supply chain. NMDC’s rise to the 50-million-tonne mark also underscores a sharp acceleration in growth in recent years. Production has increased by nearly two-thirds since 2015, rising from about 30 MT to 50 MT, with nearly one-fifth of the current capacity added in the last four years alone showing the fastest expansion phase in the company’s history. As India advances towards its target of expanding steelmaking capacity to 300 million tonnes by 2030, ensuring a stable and reliable domestic supply of iron ore has become a strategic priority. > Commenting on the achievement, **Shri Amitava Mukherjee, Chairman and Managing Director, NMDC Limited,** said: “Reaching 50 million tonnes is a notable achievement and reflects the strong progress we have made under NMDC 2.0. What once took decades to build, we have accelerated in just a few years through sharper execution, responsible mining practices, and a clear commitment to national priorities. Being India’s largest iron ore producer comes with a huge responsibility, and this milestone reflects not just the strength of our operations but also the trust placed in us to support the nation’s steel ecosystem.” With highly mechanised operations across the mineral-rich regions of Chhattisgarh and Karnataka, NMDC remains central to ensuring the country’s iron ore security. The company continues to focus on operational excellence, technological advancement, and responsible mining practices, as it looks ahead to the next phase of growth.

The market pulled back after the US allowed a temporary window for countries to buy stranded Russian oil and after the IEA confirmed a coordinated 400 million barrel emergency stock release. These steps helped ease some immediate supply fears, although they could remain insufficient compared to the scale of the disruption. The dominant driver continues to be the supply shock resulting from the ongoing tensions in the Middle East. Disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz and on energy infrastructure could continue to fuel uncertainty, at a time when Gulf producers have cut output significantly. The market could remain exposed to considerable volatility as market participants react to new developments. As such, any renewed tensions, shipping disruptions, or threats in the region could quickly push prices higher.

From using artificial intelligence (AI) to prevent the next global pandemic to questioning the impact of smartphones on youth mental health and exposing the dangers of unvalidated medical datasets, these reports provide critical context for the most pressing issues in digital health today. ### AI on the Defense: From Viral Surveillance to Data Integrity In a compelling series of reports, JMIR Correspondent Cliff Dominy first examines groundbreaking research from the University of Liverpool in the article, “Using AI to Assess Potential Zoonotic Threats.” The report details a machine learning model capable of predicting with 91.9% accuracy which avian influenza strains are most likely to “spill over” into humans. By identifying specific protein motifs that traditional retrospective analysis might miss, this technology provides a critical early warning system, allowing scientists to anticipate viral threats before they emerge as human pandemics. Continuing his investigation into the role of AI in medicine, Dominy also authored **“Data Governance Lessons From an Unvalidated Dataset,**” which explores the catastrophic fallout from a flawed autism dataset that contaminated over 90 published papers. By connecting these two pieces, Dominy illustrates a vital theme in modern research: while AI has the power to protect global health, that power is entirely dependent on the integrity of the data used to train it. The report consults data governance experts who advocate for the Five Safes framework which is a rigorous validation system designed to ensure that only ethically collected and clinically verified data reach the scientific record. **The Analog Movement: Rethinking Smartphones for Teens** Shifting the focus to behavioral health, Sara Novak explores the growing movement among families to delay smartphone use in her article, “Is Going Analog Good for Children and Teens’ Mental Health and Well-Being?” Amidst rising concerns over social media addiction and sleep disruption, with data showing 63.2% of 11-12 year olds keep devices in their bedrooms, the report highlights FlippGen and other initiatives encouraging a low-tech lifestyle. Experts, including Dr. Jason Nagata of UCSF and Dr. Michael Rich of Harvard Medical School, emphasize that while the research on age is mixed, the single biggest predictor of a child’s digital health is the behavior modeled by their parents.

The initiative, supported with $2.5 million in funding from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW), will bring together 17 California State University (CSU) campuses to strengthen and grow the Sentinel Sites for Nature (SSN), the state’s coordinated system of long-term biodiversity monitoring sites. As climate change accelerates and human-driven land-use changes reshape California’s landscapes, ecosystems are experiencing mounting pressure from drought, megafires, and habitat alteration. Yet understanding how these stressors affect species and ecosystems over time remains difficult without coordinated, long-term data collection across regions. The SSN addresses that need. The CDFW has established 39 Sentinel Sites on CDFW-owned properties. The University of California Natural Reserve System is developing 37 more on UCNRS reserves. The addition of CSU sites on land owned by city, county, state, federal, and private entities (including non-governmental organizations) will bring the total number of sentinel sites to over 110. This collaborative monitoring program is aimed at protecting California’s important biodiversity and helping guide science-based conservation, supporting California’s goal of conserving 30% of California’s coastal waters and lands by 2030, an initiative formally known as 30×30. Additional sites at CSU campuses and affiliated properties will significantly broaden the scope of diverse ecoregions across the state: the coastal redwood forests in the north and deserts in the south; urban areas of Southern California and the San Francisco Bay Area; and working landscapes of the Central Valley and the Central Coast. Participating campuses include: Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo; Cal State LA; CSU Bakersfield; CSU Channel Islands; CSU Dominguez Hills; Fresno State; Cal State Fullerton; Cal State Monterey Bay; Cal State Northridge; Sacramento State; Cal State San Bernardino; San Diego State; San Jose State; Cal State San Marcos; Sonoma State; and Stanislaus State. ”It’s so exciting to join the statewide biodiversity monitoring effort,” **says Micaela Gunther, a Cal Poly Humboldt Wildlife professor and a lead researcher for the project.** “The CSUs will make a unique contribution to the initiative by including workforce training as a critical element of the sentinel site deployment and data collection methods. We’re also bringing in a diversity of habitats not previously included as part of the SSN, especially by including two locations right here on the North Coast in Humboldt County.” Each site is equipped with non-invasive monitoring technologies including: camera traps that detect both small and large mammals, birds, and herpetofauna, bird and bat acoustic recorders, time-lapse cameras that monitor seasonal changes in vegetation and water levels, and at some sites, a Motus tower to study animal movement and migration, and a weather station that tracks climate conditions in real time. Importantly, data collected through the network will be shared among participating institutions, supporting collaborative analyses, cross-campus research, and coordinated conservation action. The initiative also provides opportunities for students to gain hands-on experience on deployment, maintenance, and data retrieval techniques, while generating useful and relevant data they can use to complete research projects beneficial to their professional development “For so long, ecological research has taken place at only a few sites over the course of one or two field seasons,” **says Associate Professor Tim Bean of Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo.** “By joining this huge collaboration, data we collect will contribute to state-wide, long-term research and management. Students will learn how to work with big datasets and collaborate across campuses and with future employers. Through the SSN, California is blazing a trail for this new way of doing ecological research. So many other states and countries are trying to figure out how to develop and coordinate these kinds of monitoring networks, and I’m thrilled that the CSUs will be strengthening this effort.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Canara Bank Circle Office Bengaluru Celebrates International Women’s Day With Theme ‘GIVE TO GAIN’](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/canara-bank-circle-office-bengaluru-celebrates-international-womens-day-with-theme-give-to-gain/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Canara Bank Circle Office Bengaluru Celebrates International Women’s Day With Theme ‘GIVE TO GAIN’](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/c0e3ji908n.png) **Bengaluru, Mar 13:** Canara Bank Circle Office Bengaluru marked International Women’s Day with a vibrant celebration themed “Give to Gain,” emphasizing empowerment through generosity, mentorship, and community impact.

The director shared the update while speaking on the opening day of the Red Lorry Film Festival, which is curated by BookMyShow. Varma was present at the festival for a special screening of his cult classic Shiva. Revisiting the film, the director spoke about the inspirations behind it, noting that legendary filmmaker Steven Spielberg influenced his visual approach. ![Ram Gopal Varma to Start Shooting Sarkar 4 Next Month, Reflects on Shiva at Red Lorry Film Festival](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/nfa5wyqj25.jpeg) “Certainly, some of the shots in Shiva were inspired by Spielberg’s style of shot-taking,” Varma said. He also acknowledged that the film drew thematic inspiration from the The Way of the Dragon, starring martial arts icon Bruce Lee. According to Varma, the idea came from adapting the core premise of that film into a completely different setting. The director also reflected on his filmmaking process over the years. Varma said that earlier in his career he rarely worked with a bound script. “My films started flopping after I began working with bound scripts,” he remarked. “Once you have a bound script, you start imitating the script itself, and there is very little chance to improve the emotional quotient during the process.” When asked about recent films and filmmakers he admires, Varma said he liked Dhurandhar and added that while Spielberg remains his all-time favourite filmmaker, he finds Aditya Dhar to be among the most promising talents from the current generation. Speaking about upcoming projects, Varma confirmed that alongside Sarkar 4, he is also working on another film titled Syndicate. “My film Syndicate will wash all my sins,” he joked, drawing laughter from the audience.

It was International Women’s Day, and at that moment, a remarkable story of dedication, teamwork, and womanhood was unfolding. Late that night, a patient—an ICU nurse herself—was admitted in need of urgent obstetric care. One phone call was enough for the team to assemble. Within minutes, the hospital corridors saw quiet yet determined movement as the team prepared for the procedure. What made the moment special was not just the medical success, but the people behind it. The entire operating team that night consisted of women—the anesthetist, pediatrician, assistant surgeon, OT nurses, and of course the lead obstetrician surgeon, Dr. Hemakshi Mehta. Some of the nursing staff traveled long distances from suburbs like Vasai and Virar, leaving their homes in the middle of the night to reach the hospital. All of them are mothers, wives, and daughters, balancing the responsibilities of family life with the demands of a profession that often calls at the most unexpected hours. Yet that night, their commitment to their patient—and to their profession—came first. Within minutes, the operation theatre was ready. Under the leadership of Dr. Mehta, the team worked with precision and coordination at Apex Superspeciality Hospital. The anesthetist Dr. Varsha Vora ensured the mother’s safety and comfort, the pediatrician- Dr. Sunila Nagvekar stood prepared to welcome the new-born, and the OT nurses handled instruments and monitoring with practiced efficiency. Soon, the cry of a healthy baby girl filled the room. In that moment, the exhaustion of the night gave way to smiles, relief, and quiet pride. The team had not only delivered a baby safely but had also lived the true spirit of Women’s Day. There were no speeches or formal celebrations. Instead, there was a small, heartfelt acknowledgment right there in the OT—women doctors and nurses looking at each other with the shared understanding that this was their way of celebrating the day. For Dr. Hemakshi Mehta, the moment symbolized something deeper. “Women in healthcare often juggle many roles,” she reflected. “We are professionals, caregivers, mothers, and partners. But when a patient needs us, we stand together as a team. That night, every woman in the OT proved that dedication and compassion know no time.” The story of that midnight surgery is not just about a successful delivery. It is about the quiet strength of women who show up when it matters most—leaving behind their homes, their sleep, and sometimes their own families, to care for another. On that Women’s Day, in the middle of the night, inside a brightly lit operation theatre, a group of women didn’t just celebrate womanhood. They embodied it.

These gut microbes help regulate the immune system, support digestion, and even influence how animals respond to stress. In birds, stress triggers the hormone corticosterone, which helps individuals cope with challenges. But when stress is prolonged or repeated, it can disrupt the balance of microbes in the gut, potentially affecting health in ways that aren’t immediately visible. While scientists have studied these stress–microbiome links extensively in mammals and domestic birds, little is known about how they operate in wild songbirds. To fill this gap, Florida Atlantic University researchers and their collaborators studied free-living Northern cardinals (Cardinalis cardinalis), a common territorial songbird, to examine how everyday challenges affect gut microbial communities. The team characterized the birds’ microbiomes before and after an 11-day period during which the birds experienced one of three conditions: repeated simulated territorial interactions with other males; a brief holding period following routine capture; or no treatment at all. Alongside the microbiome, researchers recorded levels of corticosterone, body condition and beak coloration – a carotenoid-dependent trait that signals diet, health and fitness. The results, published in Scientific Reports, revealed that even relatively mild challenges can leave a clear mark on the gut microbiome. Birds exposed to social or environmental stressors showed changes in the composition of their gut bacteria, while the total number of microbial types remained stable. Notably, birds briefly held after capture exhibited larger and more consistent shifts in microbial communities than those exposed only to simulated social interactions, highlighting how short departures from normal routines can have measurable biological effects. Findings show that even subtle, everyday challenges can have profound effects on an animal’s internal ecosystem. By revealing the hidden links between stress, microbial communities and indicators of health, the study offers a new perspective on how wild animals navigate the demands of their environment – and how their tiny microbial passengers reflect those experiences. > “These microbial changes were not just abstract numbers. They were closely linked to visible signs of health,” **said Rindy Anderson, Ph.D**., senior author and an associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences within FAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Science. “Birds whose gut microbes shifted the most also showed changes in beak color, stress hormone levels, and body condition. Stress doesn’t affect all birds in the same way. Instead, the microbiome may serve as a sensitive indicator of how individual animals are responding to their environment.” The study also uncovered links between specific types of bacteria and measures of health. For instance, males whose beaks became more orange – a signal often tied to condition and diet – also tended to have the largest shifts in their gut microbiome. Birds exposed to brief captivity showed changes in bacterial groups associated with stress and potential pathogens, whereas increases in beneficial bacteria were associated with better physiological condition. Stress hormone patterns mirrored these microbial shifts: in challenged birds, changes in corticosterone levels were strongly correlated with changes in gut microbes, while untreated birds showed little connection. > “This study shows that the microbiome can act like a biological record of what an animal has experienced,” **said Morgan C. Slevin, Ph.D.**, first author and alumnus of the Integrative Biology Ph.D. Program in the FAU Department of Biological Sciences. “By working with birds in their natural environment, we can see how different challenges – whether social interactions, environmental changes or brief disruptions – translate into real physiological changes that matter for health and fitness. These microbial shifts give us a window into the hidden ways wild animals respond to the world around them, helping us understand their resilience and overall well-being in ways we couldn’t see from behavior alone.” By combining microbiome analysis with physiological measures and visual indicators of condition, the study offers one of the first integrated looks at how stress, health and microbial communities interact in a free-living songbird. The findings underscore the importance of studying animals in their natural habitats, where behaviors and environmental conditions can shape biology in ways that captivity studies may miss. > “The gut microbiome could serve as a sensitive measure of how wild animals respond to environmental changes, urbanization or other stressors, with potential applications for conservation, wildlife rehabilitation and understanding population health,” **said Anderson.** Study co-authors are Jennifer L. Houtz, Ph.D., an assistant professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at Allegheny College; and Maren N. Vitousek, Ph.D., an associate professor, Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Cornell University. This study was funded by FAU graduate scholarships awarded to Slevin, FAU’s Office of Undergraduate Research and Inquiry awarded to Anderson, the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship awarded to Houtz, and a United States Department of Education STEM EngInE grant awarded to Miami-Dade College North campus through a sub-award awarded to Anderson.

As part of the collaboration, Adayu will integrate music created by Rishab Rikhiram Sharma at its centre, including a dedicated room where patients can experience the therapeutic benefits of music firsthand. Beginning this April, the partnership will launch a nationwide school outreach program across India, aimed at helping young people understand emotional balance, resilience, and the role of creativity in preventive mental health. Over the coming year, the initiative will also include digital awareness campaigns and community-led engagements designed to normalize conversations around mental health and reach wider audiences through meaningful, creative platforms. > **Dr. Samir Parikh, Chairperson, Mental Health Programme, Fortis Healthcare and Adayu** states, “Mental health deserves prioritization. Despite growing awareness, stigma continues to affect millions, leaving many to suffer in silence. When a next-generation icon like Rishab Rikhiram Sharma champions mental health, it sparks crucial conversations and encourages communities to seek help without fear or judgment. Collaborations like these help us reach a wider demographic while fostering greater openness and empathy around mental health.” > > **Rishab Rikhiram Sharma states,** “Music has always been a deeply emotional and spiritual experience for me, but over time I realized it can also be a powerful tool for healing and connection. Through Sitar for Mental Health, my intention has been to use the language of music to open conversations about emotional well-being and help people feel less alone in their struggles. By joining hands with mental health experts at Adayu and Dr. Samir Parikh, we hope to create spaces where people can pause, reflect and feel supported. If music can help even one person feel understood, calm, or encouraged to seek help, then it has served a purpose far beyond performance.” This collaboration represents a first-of-its-kind initiative in India, where a leading hospital chain is embracing music as a complementary tool for mental health. By combining clinical expertise with Rishab Rikhiram Sharma’s global advocacy, the partnership sets a new benchmark for integrating arts, creativity and healthcare, whilst underscoring the growing recognition of music as a catalyst for emotional healing and preventive mental health worldwide. Sitar for Mental Health is a multi-sensory, immersive advocacy platform that blends Indian classical music with mindfulness, breathing exercises, guided reflection and open conversations about emotional well-being. What began as intimate live sessions on social media during the pandemic has grown into a global movement, touring multiple countries including India, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe, South America and the Middle East drawing tens of thousands to live concerts and reaching hundreds of millions online through videos, livestreams and community engagement. Adayu, a Fortis Healthcare initiative, is the group’s first dedicated in-patient mental health facility and the first in a planned series of mental healthcare centres. Purpose-built to integrate advanced clinical care, cutting-edge technology, and evidence-based therapeutic programs, the facility provides end-to-end care alongwith a multidisciplinary team – including psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, counsellors, arts-based therapists, nutritionists, physiotherapists, and yoga practitioners – to deliver comprehensive, holistic mental healthcare.

The MY26 Sonet makes both technologies more accessible, further strengthening its appeal in one of India’s fast-growing and highly competitive compact SUV categories. As traffic density continues to rise across cities, more customers are opting for automatic vehicles that offer greater comfort, reduced driving fatigue, and improved everyday drivability. Recognizing this shift, Kia has expanded Sonet’s automatic portfolio—already among the widest in the segment—by making automatic driving accessible across a wider range of trims, bringing its convenience within reach of more customers than ever before. The 1.5-litre Diesel 6-speed Automatic is now available across HTE(O), HTK(O), HTK+, and HTK+(O) variants, alongside 1.0-litre Turbo Petrol 7DCT options in HTK(O) and HTK+(O). With this expansion, Sonet also addresses a key gap in the segment by offering automatic technology at a highly competitive price point, while becoming the first SUV in its segment to offer both 6AT and 7DCT below ₹10 lakh, further strengthening accessibility to automatic ownership. The introduction of diesel automatic variants also responds to customers seeking the frugality and efficiency of diesel engines paired with the convenience of an automatic transmission, enabling a more relaxed driving experience for both urban commutes and highway journeys. > “We have been closely listening to evolving customer needs, particularly the growing preference for the convenience of automatic driving in everyday conditions. With the model year 2026 update, we are expanding our automatic line-up with Diesel Automatic and Turbo Petrol 7DCT options at highly competitive price points, enabling more customers to experience the ease of automatic mobility while further strengthening Sonet’s leadership in the segment,” **said Mr. Atul Sood, Senior Vice-President, Sales & Marketing, Kia India.** Launched in 2020, the Kia Sonet has established itself as one of the best-selling models in India’s compact SUV segment, recently crossing the 5-lakh sales milestone, reflecting strong customer trust in the brand and continues to be a key growth driver in the market. The Sonet is available across multiple trims with five powertrain options, combining bold design, advanced technology and a feature-rich cabin that continues to set benchmarks in the segment.

Rohan Khaunte, Minister for Information Technology, Electronics & Communications (ITE&C), announced the Goa AI and Deep-Tech Policy will be notified within the next 100 days. He also highlighted the government’s vision to adopt Artificial Intelligence (AI), with a strong focus on developing local talent to create home-grown AI solutions. Replying to a Private Member Resolutions moved by Curtorim MLA, Shri. Aleixo Lourenco, the Minister explained that the world is moving from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0, where technology works together with humans instead of replacing them. “We’re entering the age of Industry 5.0 where machines work alongside human beings. AI will support human decision-making, creativity and skills while keeping people at the centre,” he said, adding that the Department of Information Technology, Electronics & Communications (DITE&C) is promoting ‘Artificial Intelligence with a Human Touch.’ **Shri. Rohan Khaunte** stated Goa has a strong digital base to support this transition. The GoaOnline portal already offers 280 services from 41 departments reaching citizens and businesses with 9.1 lakh registered users and 19.9 lakh number of transactions. Along with growing digital awareness among people, this platform provides a solid foundation to introduce new technologies like the recently introduced AI-powered chatbot. Under the Goa AI Mission 2027, launched in 2025, DITE&C is working on four key pillars: Skilling, Startups & Companies, Capital, and Governance & Infrastructure. With a strong focus on education and skill development, plans are underway to introduce AI as a subject in schools and colleges, set up AI learning laboratories and train teachers. Study material will be made available in Konkani, Marathi, Hindi and English to ensure that students from all backgrounds can benefit. The state is also working with institutions such as Indian Institute of Technology Goa, National Institute of Technology Goa, BITS Pilani Goa Campus, Goa Engineering College and Goa Institute of Management to strengthen AI education and research. In parallel, grants and structured support will be extended to AI startups, with specific provisions for women-led startups. A major step in making AI more accessible is the partnership with Bhashini, the language translation mission under Digital India, to develop a Konkani LLM. This will allow AI systems to understand and communicate in Konkani, helping citizens access government services in their own local language. DITE&C is also working on the AI Kosh initiative, which will ensure that the vast data assets held by government departments are made available responsibly for AI research and innovation. It’s also developing an AI Readiness Index to determine the preparedness of every department to adopt and benefit from Artificial Intelligence. Looking ahead, the government also plans to set up an AI Centre of Excellence in Goa. Artificial Intelligence applications are also being planned across sectors such as healthcare, agriculture, tourism and public service delivery, while initiatives such as the Chips-to-Startup (C2S) programme are helping build semiconductor design capabilities among students and 5G Use Case Labs at BITS Pilani Goa Campus and NIT Goa are enabling students and researchers to test next‑generation applications. The Goa AI Policy, which will be notified in the next 100 days, will bring all these initiatives together and guide the state’s AI development across education, governance, industry and research. It will create skilled job opportunities for the Goan youth while positioning the state as a centre for Artificial Intelligence and deep-technology across the country. After a detailed discussion and a satisfactory response by the Minister, the resolutions put forward by the private member were withdrawn in the assembly.

The pioneering instrument, titled ‘SITARA – The Next-Generation Electric Sitar’, has been conceptualized and built by his father, master luthier Sanjay Sharma, marking a significant advancement in the evolution of the sitar and contemporary classical music. ![Rishab Rikhiram Sharma To Debut India’s First Next-Gen LED-Powered Electric Sitar At His India Tour](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/dot2si726f.jpeg) Designed as a state-of-the-art reinterpretation of the traditional instrument, SITARA builds on a lineage of experimental sitars developed by Sanjay and Manjul Sharma’s Rikhi Ram’s Music, including the Rik-E-Sitar and the Studio Sitar. The new model integrates modern sound design, portability and lighting technology, while retaining the tonal character of the classical sitar. The instrument has been developed to expand the sitar’s role in contemporary performance contexts, particularly across film music, fusion and global live productions. **Explaining the vision behind the instrument, Sanjay Sharma** says, > *“SITARA was created to give sitarists the ability to step into contemporary musical spaces where the electric guitar is often used. The idea was to enable sitar players to perform modern arrangements especially in Bollywood, fusion and world music, without needing to learn another instrument. While the acoustic sitar remains the soul of classical music, this instrument opens exciting possibilities for crossover and global performance.”* A defining aspect of SITARA is its compact, ergonomic design, developed with modern touring musicians in mind. Unlike the traditional sitar, the instrument is lightweight and allows performers to play while standing, making it well suited for contemporary stage productions. > *“We wanted to design something practical for today’s performers,”* **Sharma** explains. *“The instrument is compact and travel-friendly, with a collapsible hand-rest frame and a custom-built active pickup system with volume and tone controls that can run through amplifiers and processors. At the same time, when played clean through an amplifier, it still retains the tonal character of a traditional sitar.”* The instrument also features an integrated LED interface with over, allowing the sitar to visually complement live performances through synchronized lighting effects. > *“The high density 140+ LEDs interface adds a visual dimension to the music,”* Sharma adds. *“It was developed after Rishab’s last India tour in 2024, as he wanted to enhance the visual experience for audiences during live shows. The lighting can adapt to the mood and theme of each performance, seamlessly blending sound and visual storytelling.”* SITARA also introduces practical advantages for touring artists, including a silent-practice capability that allows musicians to rehearse through amplification systems without the acoustic projection of a traditional sitar. > *“One of the intentions behind the design was to make the sitar easier to live and travel with,”* Sharma says. *“Musicians can practice without disturbing others and carry the instrument far more easily than a traditional sitar.”* SITARA continues the century-old legacy of Rikhi Ram’s Music, the historic instrument-making house founded in 1920, known for iconic creations such as the Studio Sitar (played by Pt. Ravi Shankar), Microphonic Sitar, E-rode (electric Sarod), microphonic Santoor and Tabla, Swarmandir (popularized by Daler Mehndi), Suroleen (Mandolin-Sarod hybrid) and the Rik-E-Sitar, among others. > *“No other sitarist has performed publicly on this instrument yet,”* **Sharma** notes. *“In the hands of a skilled musician, it can move fluidly between Indian classical ragas and Western genres such as blues, rock ’n’ roll and heavier fusion styles. The idea is not to replace tradition, but to expand what the sitar can do and how new audiences can experience it.”* Following successful performances across North America, Europe, the Middle East and the United Kingdom, Rishab Rikhiram Sharma will bring the Sitar for Mental Health Tour 2026 to 10 cities across India between March and April, including Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Chennai, Jaipur, Ahmedabad, Chandigarh, Kolkata and New Delhi. The tour is expected to draw 10,000–15,000 attendees per city and is promoted and produced by Team Innovation and District by Zomato. The tour arrives at a time when conversations around mental wellbeing, meditative soundscapes and transformative live experiences are resonating strongly with younger audiences positioning Sharma’s music at the intersection of classical tradition, contemporary culture and emotional healing through sound. **Tour Dates** • 15th March 2026 – Bengaluru • 20th March 2026 – Mumbai • 22nd March 2026 – Pune • 27th March 2026 – Hyderabad • 29th March 2026 – Jaipur • 3rd April 2026 – Chennai • 5th April 2026 – Ahmedabad • 10th April 2026 – Chandigarh • 12th April 2026 – Kolkata • 19th April 2026 – New Delhi [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** entertainment --- ### [Mercedes-Benz India launches the ‘private suite on wheels, the all-new V-Class Extra Long Wheelbase in Chandigarh](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/mercedes-benz-india-launches-the-private-suite-on-wheels-the-all-new-v-class-extra-long-wheelbase-in-chandigarh/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Mercedes-Benz India launches the ‘private suite on wheels, the all-new V-Class Extra Long Wheelbase in Chandigarh](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/pu1g9641xo.jpeg) **Chandigarh:** India’s most desirable luxury car maker Mercedes-Benz today, launched the all-new V-Class, redefining the strongly evolving private luxury mobility segment in Chandigarh and Punjab markets.

The patient had been living with a right frontal AVM that had ruptured twice, most recently in July 2025, placing her at high risk of permanent neurological damage or death. After careful evaluation and detailed imaging, the AVM was found to be surgically accessible, and a decision was made to proceed with **microsurgical excision** under the supervision of **Dr. Ujwal Yeole, Consultant Neurosurgeon**, with intra-operative support from senior neurosurgeon **Dr. Deepu Banerjee**. The surgery involved meticulous identification of abnormal vessels, controlled division of feeding arteries, careful dissection of the AVM nidus, and secure management of draining veins, all performed under microscopic guidance. The anaesthesia team led by **Dr. Sangeetha**, the ICU team under **Dr. Amit**, and OT staff headed by **Ms. Swapnali** played an essential role in ensuring seamless perioperative care. Post-surgery, the patient recovered smoothly, with no new neurological deficits, and was discharged stable, free from the looming risk of another hemorrhage. **Dr. Ujwal Yeole** commented: > *“An arterio-venous malformation is like a ticking time bomb in the brain. Once it ruptures, the risk of re-bleeding remains significant, and each bleed can be devastating. Surgery offered the most definitive and curative option. The true success lies not just in removing the AVM, but in restoring the patient’s sense of safety and future.”* This case highlights the importance of timely intervention and the expertise of **KIMS Hospitals Thane** in managing complex cerebrovascular conditions, demonstrating world-class neurosurgical care and patient-focused outcomes.

BSE celebrated the occasion by hosting its annual “Ring the Bell for Gender Equality” ceremony, a global initiative by UN Women, IFC, the Sustainable Stock Exchanges Initiative, UN Global Compact, and the World Federation of Exchanges. Now in its 12th year, the campaign unites markets and institutions worldwide in reaffirming their commitment to gender equality, with this year’s participants also including MSCI, the European Union, and Women in ETFs.

UN Women commends BSE for creating spaces where women business owners don’t just participate in the economy but lead it. Ensuring they have equal access to capital, networks, and market opportunity is not just good for business — it is essential to building a more inclusive and resilient India.” **Ms Shaili Chopra, Founder of SheThePeople and Gytree** said, “Having spent years covering markets and capital flows, I’ve seen that who’s in the boardroom shapes what gets funded, built, and scaled.

That’s exactly what we were going for — the comfort of Black Forest, but an experience they hadn’t had before.” Deepa Desai, Co-Founder & Head Baker, Vanilla Beans The base begins with a jet-black Oreo crust, deep, bittersweet and satisfyingly crunchy, forming the foundation for a velvety Belgian dark chocolate cheesecake baked to a dense, silky finish. Running through the centre, and along the rim, is a house-made dark cherry compote, its tart-sweet intensity cutting through the richness of the chocolate and bringing the unmistakable spirit of a classic Black Forest into every bite. The cheesecake is finished with a light mascarpone cream topping, crowned with delicate Belgian dark chocolate shavings, adding both visual drama and a final touch of elegance. Each forkful moves through layers of flavour and texture, the crunch of the Oreo crust, the smooth richness of dark chocolate cheesecake, the jammy burst of cherries, and finally the airy mascarpone cream that lifts the dessert into a lighter finish. While the brand is known across Mumbai for cult favourites like its seasonal strawberry cakes and signature chocolate creations, the Black Forest Cheesecake is quickly emerging as a rising favourite among customers, with many discovering it as an unexpected new standout from the patisserie. “Every element in this cheesecake exists for a reason. The Oreo crust isn’t just a base — it’s a bittersweet contrast. The Belgian dark chocolate cheesecake isn’t just the heart of it — it’s the depth that everything else is built around. The cherry compote isn’t just flavour — it’s relief from the richness. The mascarpone isn’t just garnish — it’s the exhale at the end. When every layer has a purpose, what you get isn’t just something delicious. You get something memorable.” Rohit Desai, Co-Founder, Vanilla Beans Founded in 2013 by mother-son duo Deepa and Rohit Desai, Vanilla Beans has grown from a home kitchen into one of Mumbai’s most loved gourmet dessert brands, known for its 100% eggless cakes crafted fresh to order using premium global ingredients.

One such gathering recently took place at **Mahalaxmi Racecourse**, where the **On Tour Club Run** brought together a community of runners and wellness enthusiasts for an early morning run, ending with a recovery moment featuring Cloud Shake protein milkshakes. In another experience, participants gathered at the Gateway of India for Sunrise Yacht Yoga, practising a guided Vinyasa flow on the water before ending the session with Cloud Shake as a post-practice refuelling ritual.

Each serving contains 26g of clean complete protein, placing it among the highest-protein ready-to-drink milkshakes currently available in India. The formulation also reflects Skyway’s philosophy of functional nourishment rather than restrictive dieting. Cloud Shake is sweetened using monk fruit, a rare plant-based sweetener known for delivering natural sweetness without sugar spikes or artificial aftertaste. It also includes KSM-66 Ashwagandha, a clinically researched adaptogen known for helping the body manage stress, alongside prebiotic fibre for gut health, Omega-3s for inflammation support, and a micronutrient blend including spinach, moringa, and wheatgrass. Equally notable is what the formulation leaves out. Cloud Shake contains no artificial sweeteners, sugar alcohols, **artificial colours, artificial flavours, date concentrate, or apple juice concentrate**, ingredients commonly used across the ready-to-drink nutrition category. Instead, Skyway has focused on building a clean-label formulation that prioritises both taste and nutritional integrity, **making it the cleanest ready-to-drink shake in India.** Currently available in Choco Hazel and Banana Berry, the flavours lean into comfort and familiarity, reinforcing the brand’s belief that functional nutrition should feel enjoyable rather than medicinal. > “We didn’t want to create another protein drink that feels like a strict fitness supplement,” says the founder **Aseem Agarwal**. “Our goal was to build something people would genuinely enjoy drinking, something that could fit into real life, whether after a run, during a busy workday, or simply as a healthier alternative to sugar-heavy beverages.” As Skyway continues to grow its presence, the brand plans to expand the Cloud Shake range with additional flavours. **Coffee, vanilla and matcha might not launch for some time, while tiramisu is something that’s ready.** In doing so, Skyway hopes to reshape protein **to be perceived** not just as gym fuel, but as a daily ritual for modern, active living.

The platform seeks to bring together insights and perspectives from across the healthcare ecosystem, with the objective of helping audiences better understand the complexities of healthcare and the experiences that shape patient care. The first conversation on the channel will feature Dr. Narottam Puri, widely regarded as a legend in Indian medicine, setting the tone for deeper discussions on trust, information and decision-making in healthcare. The inspiration behind The Hope Code stems from a fundamental question often faced by patients and families during medical situations, whether the fear lies more in receiving difficult news or in the uncertainty that comes with waiting for answers. In many cases, the most challenging space lies between these two realities, where clarity is limited and decisions feel overwhelming. Through this initiative, the channel seeks to encourage reflection and informed thinking, helping individuals pause, understand what is happening around them and make better decisions with the knowledge available. Speaking about the initiative, **Mr. Varun Khanna said t**he idea behind the platform is to address the growing gap between the abundance of information available today and the ability to interpret and trust that information. “Today there is more healthcare content and data available than ever before, yet many people continue to struggle with identifying what information is credible and how it should be understood. The objective of The Hope Code is to create a space where perspectives from experienced voices in healthcare can help audiences navigate this complexity with greater clarity,” he said. Reflecting on his experience in the healthcare sector, **Mr. Khanna noted t**hat the journey from information to wisdom requires deeper understanding. “Over the years, I have realised that data does not always translate into fact, fact does not necessarily become information, information alone does not guarantee knowledge, and knowledge does not automatically lead to wisdom. Wisdom often emerges through experience, perspective and dialogue. This platform seeks to contribute to that journey of understanding,” he said. Mr. Khanna also emphasised that while reassurance and hope are central to healthcare, meaningful hope must be supported by knowledge and collaboration. “In healthcare we often hear reassuring words that everything will be fine. However, hope becomes meaningful only when it is supported by understanding and informed decision-making. Hope is important in healthcare, but hope without understanding can create confusion. The Hope Code is an attempt to bridge that gap,” he added. The channel will feature conversations, reflections and insights from leaders across healthcare, medicine, policy, technology and patient advocacy, exploring real-life healthcare dilemmas, trust in medical information and how individuals can make more informed decisions. At a time when digital platforms are flooded with health-related information, The Hope Code aims to encourage audiences to approach healthcare conversations with greater awareness and discernment, helping them identify reliable perspectives and understand the broader context of medical decisions. Through The Hope Code, Mr. Khanna hopes to create a space where experience, dialogue and credible knowledge come together to help people navigate healthcare decisions with greater clarity and confidence.

Key practices include cleaning printheads, monitoring ink/toner, updating firmware, and using manufacturer-approved consumables. This routine minimizes unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs, maximizing return on investment. ![Extend Your Printer’s Life with Regular Preventive Maintenance](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/8argg0nrxi.jpg) ## What is Preventive Maintenance? Preventive maintenance refers to a systematic approach to maintaining equipment through routine inspections, servicing, and component replacements. The goal is to detect and resolve potential issues before they develop into serious mechanical failures. For industrial printers, preventive maintenance typically includes: - Regular cleaning of internal and external components - Monitoring performance and print quality Rather than reacting to breakdowns, preventive maintenance focuses on **anticipation and prevention**. Small maintenance actions taken regularly can prevent larger and more expensive problems from developing ## Why Preventive Maintenance is Essential for Industrial Printers Industrial printers operate in demanding environments. Many run continuously for long hours and produce thousands of prints every day. Over time, components naturally experience wear and tear. Without proper maintenance, small issues can quickly escalate into serious problems. Dust accumulation, worn rollers, misaligned belts, and clogged print heads can all affect printer performance. Preventive maintenance helps businesses address these issues early, ensuring the printer continues to operate smoothly and efficiently. ## 1. Extends Equipment Lifespan Industrial printers are designed to be durable and reliable, but like any machine, they require proper care to reach their full lifespan. Components such as belts, rollers, filters, and print heads gradually wear out with use. If these parts are not replaced at the right time, they can create additional strain on other components. Over time, this strain can cause larger system failures. Businesses that follow consistent maintenance routines can extend the life of their printers significantly compared to those that rely only on reactive repairs. ## 2. Reduces Downtime and Production Interruptions Downtime is one of the biggest challenges in industrial printing environments. When a printer stops working unexpectedly, production lines can come to a complete halt. Routine inspections allow technicians or trained operators to detect early warning signs such as: - Unusual noises from mechanical components - Print misalignment ## 3. Maintains High Print Quality Consistent print quality is essential in many industries. Labels, barcodes, packaging designs, and product information must be clear, accurate, and professional. However, several factors can affect print quality over time. Dust buildup, dried ink, worn print heads, or damaged rollers can lead to problems such as: - Blurred or faded prints - Misaligned images or text Regular cleaning of print heads and internal components helps prevent blockages and ink residue buildup. Replacing worn parts ensures that materials move smoothly through the printer without distortion. ## 4. Reduces Overall Maintenance Costs At first glance, preventive maintenance may appear to be an additional operational expense. However, it actually helps businesses save money in the long run. In contrast, preventive maintenance focuses on replacing smaller components before they cause larger issues. For example: - Replacing a worn roller is far cheaper than repairing damaged internal components. - Cleaning a print head regularly can prevent costly print head replacements. Preventive maintenance also reduces indirect costs associated with downtime, such as production delays and lost revenue. ## 5. Improves Safety and Operational Reliability Industrial printers are complex machines that include motors, moving parts, electrical systems, and high-speed components. If these systems are not properly maintained, they can pose safety risks to operators and technicians. For example: - Worn belts or misaligned components can cause sudden mechanical failures. - Overheated parts may damage internal systems. - Loose components may create operational hazards. ## Key Preventive Maintenance Practices Implementing a preventive maintenance program does not have to be complicated. By following a few essential practices, businesses can keep their industrial printers performing reliably. ### 1. Regular Cleaning Dust, debris, and ink residue are common causes of printer performance issues. Cleaning should include: - Print heads - Rollers - Ink systems ### 2. Proper Lubrication Many industrial printers include moving mechanical parts that require lubrication. Without proper lubrication, friction increases and components wear out faster. Lubricating gears, bearings, and moving assemblies ensures smooth operation and reduces mechanical strain on the system. Always use manufacturer-recommended lubricants to avoid damaging sensitive components. ### 3. Scheduled Part Replacement Certain components naturally wear out over time and should be replaced on a scheduled basis. Common high-wear parts include: - Drive belts - Print heads - Filters Creating a replacement schedule based on usage hours or production volume helps prevent sudden failures. ### 4. Routine Equipment Inspections Regular inspections are essential for identifying early warning signs of potential problems. Operators should be trained to check for: - Unusual vibrations or noises - Inconsistent print quality - Misalignment or mechanical resistance Early detection allows small problems to be addressed before they become serious failures. ### 5. Use High-Quality Replacement Parts The quality of replacement parts plays a critical role in printer performance and longevity. Low-quality or incompatible components may cause additional wear, reduce efficiency, or even damage the printer. Using durable, well-engineered replacement parts ensures reliable performance and protects the machine’s internal systems. Whenever possible, businesses should source parts from trusted suppliers that specialize in industrial printer components. ## Final Thoughts Industrial printers are vital assets in many modern production environments. They support essential processes such as packaging, labeling, product identification, and quality control. The benefits are clear: longer equipment life, reduced downtime, consistent print quality, lower repair costs, and improved workplace safety. Rather than waiting for problems to arise, businesses that adopt preventive maintenance strategies gain greater control over their operations and reduce the risks associated with unexpected equipment failures.

The metal has come under pressure as rising geopolitical tensions have pushed energy prices higher, reinforcing concerns about inflation and tightening financial conditions. This has resulted in a rise in US Treasury yields to multi-week highs, weighing on non-yielding assets such as gold. Despite the inflationary concerns, ongoing tensions in Eastern Europe, with no clear path toward a near-term resolution, continue to sustain a geopolitical risk premium. At the same time, steady accumulation by central banks provides an underlying floor for the metal, helping preserve its longer-term bullish trend. In the near term, investors are closely watching key economic data releases. However, the risks of persistent high energy prices could limit the Federal Reserve’s ability to shift toward a more accommodative stance, keeping gold sensitive to geopolitical developments.

Crude supply disruptions due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz continue to drive prices to the upside, pushing markets to reassess the timing of monetary policy easing and lean toward a more cautious sentiment. Markets are now pricing only one interest rate cut by year-end, which could limit the downside risks for the dollar. This week’s data showed that inflation remained relatively stable in February, but the focus could remain on the impact of oil prices. At the same time, low jobless claims and firmer ADP hiring underscore a resilient labor market, reducing the necessity for immediate interest rate cuts. Looking ahead, all eyes are now on today’s key economic data, including GDP growth, PCE, JOLTs and durable goods orders, which could inject volatility into forex and bond markets. However, Middle Eastern tensions are likely to remain the main driver of the dollar. Any escalation is likely to bolster the dollar and yields further.

Today, many of these locations are gradually transforming into some of Mumbai’s most sought-after residential addresses, giving rise to a new chapter of premium housing in the micro-market. Chembur’s evolution mirrors the larger urban transformation seen across Mumbai where historic and industrial landmarks are being reimagined as lifestyle-driven residential destinations. Locations that were once associated with studios, factories and institutional spaces are now emerging as signature addresses, attracting leading developers and premium residential projects. ![From Iconic Landmarks to Signature Addresses: How Chembur’s Legacy Locations Are Shaping Premium Living](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/rupsfadxrc.jpg) One of the most prominent examples is the historic **R. K. Studio**, which for decades stood as a symbol of Indian cinema. The redevelopment of the studio land has drawn significant attention to the locality, highlighting how legacy land parcels can be repurposed to create modern residential spaces that blend heritage with contemporary living. The iconic **Dukes Factory**, once synonymous with Chembur’s industrial character, represents the broader shift in land use across the area. As older industrial units gradually made way for redevelopment, several such locations began attracting residential development, unlocking new possibilities for premium housing. Similarly, the presence of the prestigious **Bombay Presidency Golf Club** has played a key role in elevating Chembur’s residential appeal. Homes overlooking or located near the golf course have increasingly become aspirational addresses, offering residents rare green views and a tranquil lifestyle within Mumbai’s dense urban fabric. Commenting on the emergence of such landmark-driven residential pockets, **Mr.** **Vijay Choraria, Managing Director, Crest Ventures Limited** said *“Globally, iconic landmarks often become anchors for premium residential development. In Chembur, locations around the Bombay Presidency Golf Club have evolved into distinctive residential enclaves because they offer a rare lifestyle proposition such as expansive permanent green views, exclusivity and proximity to key parts of the city. Over time, these locations naturally develop into signature addresses that homebuyers strongly associate with prestige and quality living.”* Leading developers have recognized the potential of these landmark-driven locations and are increasingly investing in the micro-market. City’s Developers such as **Godrej Properties**, **The Wadhwa Group, Rustomjee, House Of Hiranandani** and **Chandak Group** have introduced premium residential developments that are reshaping Chembur’s skyline and elevating its reputation as an upscale residential destination. Redevelopment is further accelerating this shift. Many ageing buildings and industrial plots are being transformed into modern residential towers offering upgraded amenities and improved urban planning. A spokesperson from **Chandak Group** said, *“Redevelopment has been a major catalyst in Chembur’s transformation. Several older structures and underutilized land parcels are now being reimagined as contemporary residential developments. This process is helping create luxury homes with modern amenities and better open spaces, turning previously industrial or legacy locations into premium residential addresses.”* Improved connectivity has also strengthened the suburb’s attractiveness. Infrastructure projects such as the Mumbai Monorail, along with easy access to the Eastern Freeway and major arterial roads, have enhanced Chembur’s connectivity with South Mumbai, BKC and Navi Mumbai, making it a convenient residential choice for professionals and business owners. As iconic locations continue to be redeveloped and reimagined, Chembur is steadily transitioning into a neighbourhood defined not just by its history, but by its new identity as a cluster of signature residential addresses. The suburb’s transformation demonstrates how legacy landmarks can become the foundation for modern, premium urban living.

He noted that the government has undertaken several reforms to accelerate growth in the mining sector, marking a clear shift from regulation to facilitation. “Government priorities today lie at the intersection of economic growth, environmental sustainability and strategic security of critical minerals,” he said. Mr Kumar emphasised that as the world rapidly transitions towards green energy, minerals such as lithium, cobalt and nickel are becoming strategically vital for nations. India is therefore strengthening domestic exploration, securing supply chains and encouraging value addition within the country. Highlighting future demand, he said achieving the steel production targets under the 2030 mission would require 400–450 million tonnes of iron ore, making it necessary to accelerate mine auctions and operationalisation of mineral blocks. “To achieve the vision of Viksit Bharat, reforms in the mining sector must move at a much faster pace,” he added. Delivering the welcome address, **Mr Prabodh Mohanty, Co-Chairman, ASSOCHAM Odisha State Development Council and Chairman of SNM Group, said,** “Odisha remains one of the country’s most significant mining and mineral hubs. He noted that the state has generated nearly ₹1.5 lakh crore in mining revenue over the past decade, contributing substantially to India’s economic development. Odisha today accounts for around 25 percent of India’s steel production, reinforcing its position as the steel capital of India.” Mr Mohanty also highlighted the state government’s focus on strengthening logistics and connectivity while accelerating exploration and auctioning of critical minerals. These minerals are essential for emerging sectors such as electric vehicles, semiconductors, defence and aerospace. Odisha, he said, has the potential to play a key role in minerals like lithium and cobalt, helping India reduce import dependence. In his industry address, Mr Prasanna Kumar Panda, Member of the ASSOCHAM Odisha State Development Council on Mines and Minerals and Business Head (Odisha Business) at JSW Steel, highlighted various aspects of the National Critical Mineral Mission. He pointed out that several minerals previously under the Department of Atomic Energy have now been deregulated to promote exploration. Many critical minerals are found in coastal states like Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. Mr. Panda also noted that the government has eased certain regulatory requirements, including exemptions from public hearing in specific cases, to promote exploration and development of critical minerals. He added that policy reforms for minerals such as nickel and copper are aimed at making the sector more accessible for private investment and accelerating domestic production, including lithium, to enhance India’s self-reliance. **Speaking on industry challenges, Mr Manish Singla, Head** – Mineral Auction, Strategy, Mergers and Acquisitions at Jindal Steel & Power (JSP), said that while steel production and consumption are growing steadily, the supply of iron ore – the key raw material for steelmaking – remains inadequate. Despite having abundant reserves, India imported 10–12 million tonnes of iron ore last year, he noted. Singla highlighted that Odisha aims to increase its steel production capacity to 100 million tonnes per annum by 2030, from the current 42–45 million tonnes. Achieving this target will require a proportional increase in iron ore production and supply. He also pointed out that the premium paid by mining operators for mineral blocks in Odisha has been rising sharply, and urged the government to bring more mineral blocks to auction to meet the raw material requirements of steel, pellet and sponge iron plants in the state. During the conclave, ASSOCHAM also released a Knowledge Report on the mining and minerals sector. The conclave featured three substantive panel discussions focusing on policy, strategic minerals and technological transformation in mining. Panel on Policy, Reforms & Ease of Doing Business in Indian Mining, moderated by Mr Bidyut Chakraborty of KPMG, examined key reforms in mining laws, auction frameworks and clearance mechanisms. The panel included Mr Arun Kumar from the Indian Bureau of Mines, Mr Manoj Verma, Head of Mines at Shiva Cement Ltd and Mr Manish Singla of Jindal Steel & Power. Panel on Critical Minerals & India’s Strategic Resource Security, moderated by Sumit Jhunjhunwala, Vice President and Sector Head – Mines & Minerals at ICRA Limited, focused on India’s Critical Minerals Mission, domestic extraction challenges and the geopolitical dimensions of mineral supply chains. Panelists included Nitin Gupta, CEO and Co-founder of Attero Recycling, Sabyasachi Mohanty, former Director (Operations) at Odisha Mining Corporation, and Kali Sanjay, Chief Scientist at CSIR-IMMT. Panel on Technology, Safety & Sustainable Mining, moderated by Mr Pranab Kumar, Technical Director at KPMG, explored the role of artificial intelligence, automation, drones, digital mine planning and low-emission technologies in improving mining productivity and safety. Speakers included Mr Ashit Kumar Swain, Director (Geology) at Geological Survey of India, Mr R Bhima Rao, Former Chief Scientist at CSIR-IMMT and Director of Aryan Institute of Engineering & Technology, Bhubaneswar and Mr Priyadarshi, Vice President at Sainik Mining & Allied Services Ltd. The conclave underscored the importance of policy reforms, sustainable resource management and technological innovation in ensuring India’s long-term mineral security and strengthening the country’s industrial growth trajectory.

The four-part film series aims to shift consumer perception beyond Lenovo’s strong association with laptops and position the brand as a credible choice in the monitors category. ![Lenovo launches ‘Pixel Deficiency’ campaign to spotlight its monitor portfolio](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/0e44i94x1q.jpeg) The campaign’s 45-second hero film, built around the tagline “Damn the Doubts. Damn the Odds.”, brings to life a fictional condition called ‘Pixel Deficiency’ – a humorous diagnosis for users struggling with poor display quality. Through a series of everyday scenarios, the films highlight how inadequate screen clarity and colour accuracy can impact different tasks across work, gaming, design and learning. In the film, an analyst repeatedly squints at a spreadsheet but misses the crucial data point. A designer struggles to differentiate between shades of blue while working on a design. A gamer mistakes a bush for an opponent and fires, only to realise the error moments later. In another scenario, a student stares at a blurry lecture slide, unable to decipher the content. Each scenario ultimately points to the same underlying problem “the user’s monitor” before introducing Lenovo’s monitor lineup as the solution. The films spotlight the brand’s display capabilities, including enhanced colour accuracy, refresh rates and visual clarity. Designed as a digital-first initiative, the campaign will run across India from mid-March to mid-April 2026, targeting professionals, gamers and creators who rely heavily on high-performance, wide screen displays.

A national survey released by Heartfulness Institute coinciding with World Sleep Day 2026 suggests that as professionals and students increasingly turn to AI tools to extend productivity and learning, sleep and quality of sleep is a casualty even without them immediately recognizing the impact. The survey was conducted with over 550+ individuals across Mumbai, Hyderabad, Delhi, Goa, Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Pune, Chandigarh, Thane amounts other cities/states. The survey findings suggest a *clear link between increased AI and digital exposure and poorer sleep health among respondents.* Individuals with *more than six hours of daily screen time show nearly 80% higher rates of sleep issues, while frequent AI users also report greater sleep disturbances and daytime sleepiness*. **Heartfulness AI & Sleep Survey Findings** - 82.6% of respondents use AI tools daily or multiple times a day - 59.1% spend more than four hours daily on screens - 41.3% report experiencing daytime sleepiness somewhat regularly - Individuals with over 6 hours of screen time report later bedtimes and higher daytime fatigue - Over 90% report never using sleep medication Reflecting on the deeper importance of rest in an age of constant digital stimulation, **Kamlesh D. Patel, President of Shri Ram Chandra Mission, and global guide of Heartfulness**, said the findings highlight the need to consciously balance technological advancement with inner well-being. > *“Sleep is not merely a biological function but a sacred opportunity for the mind and heart to rejuvenate. In today’s world our attention is constantly drawn outward through devices, information, and now artificial intelligence. While these technologies are powerful tools, they also keep the mind active far beyond the natural rhythm of the day. When we consciously create moments of inner quiet before sleep, the mind gradually settles, and the quality of rest deepens. True productivity arises not from constant activity, but from a balanced mind that is rested, calm, and centered.”* **Demographic Profile and AI Usage Purposes:** Participant Subgroup Primary Demographics Average Daily Screen Time Primary Purposes of AI Usage **IT & Software Professionals** 25 – 54 years 6 to >8 hours Study, Work productivity, Coding, Content creation, Information search **College / University Students** 15 – 24 years 4 to >8 hours Study, Work productivity, Emotional support, Curiosity, Content creation **Healthcare Professionals** 25 – 64 years <2 to 6 hours Information search, Work productivity, Emotional support **Education / Teaching** 25 – 64 years 2 to 8 hours Work productivity, Study, Information search **Retired / Senior Citizens** 65+ years <2 hours Information search, Curiosity/entertainment *Demographically, students and IT/tech professionals form a large portion of respondents, with the 25–44 age group showing the highest AI interaction. Notably, the 35–44 age group reports the lowest sleep quality, whereas the 65+ group reports the best sleep quality despite the 55–64 age group having the shortest sleep duration.* The key takeaways from the survey point to a strong association between screen exposure and sleep quality. While high screen-time users (more than 6 hours a day) make up 22.7% of the overall population, they account for a much larger 34.6% of those reporting significant sleep issues. About 20.5% of high screen-time users report fairly bad or very bad sleep, compared with 11.4% among low screen-time users. They also sleep slightly less on average (6.39 hours vs. 6.53 hours), suggesting that prolonged digital exposure may be linked to poorer sleep outcomes. Overall, the findings suggest that limiting daily screen exposure to under six hours may help improve sleep quality, highlighting the need for further research on how AI and digital engagement influence sleep patterns. Age Group Avg GAD-7 Score Avg AI Interaction Score Avg Sleep Duration (Hrs) Avg Sleep Quality Score **15 – 17** 8.27 2.91 7.09 2.27 **18 – 24** 5.90 2.87 6.55 2.11 **25 – 34** 6.57 3.33 6.74 1.93 **35 – 44** 4.80 3.27 6.45 1.87 **45 – 54** 5.53 2.21 6.36 1.89 **55 – 64** 2.64 2.27 5.64 2.00 **65+** 0.57 1.43 6.21 2.57 The survey also indicates that frequent AI users report slightly higher daytime sleepiness, averaging 0.65 on a 0–3 scale, compared with 0.60 among low AI users, even though their average sleep duration remains similar (6.52 hours vs. 6.46 hours). AI interaction is highest among adults aged 25–44, with scores above 3.2 (daily usage), while the 65+ group records the lowest interaction (1.43). Sleep duration varies by age, with 15–17-year-olds getting the most sleep (7.09 hours) and the 55–64 group the least (5.64 hours). Gender differences are minimal: men sleep slightly longer on average (6.52 hours vs. 6.43 hours) and report marginally higher screen time (4.69 vs. 4.38 hours). Sleep quality (2.05 vs. 2.08) and AI usage (2.86 vs. 2.87) remain nearly identical between men and women. The national survey, conducted among students, IT professionals, healthcare workers and educators, found that **82.6% use AI tools daily or multiple times a day**, underscoring how deeply artificial intelligence has become embedded in work and study routines. Digital exposure remains high overall, with more than half of respondents reporting over four hours of daily screen time, while a significant share of knowledge workers and technology professionals reported six to eight hours or more. Health experts say the brain requires a gradual transition from intense cognitive engagement to sleep – a transition that constant digital stimulation can disrupt. **Dr. Jayaram Thimmapuram, academic hospitalist in internal medicine at WellSpan York Hospital and a Heartfulness practitioner**, who has studied the relationship between meditation, stress, and sleep quality, said > *“The human brain still requires a natural transition from intense cognitive engagement to restorative sleep. When our minds remain active late into the night – whether through screens, digital work, or AI-assisted tasks – it can delay this shift into rest. Simple practices such as reducing screen exposure before bedtime, maintaining consistent sleep routines, and incorporating meditation can help calm the mind, improve sleep quality, and enable individuals to sustain energy, focus, and emotional balance in increasingly demanding professional environments.”* **AI , Screens and Sleepless Days and Nights** The table below shows correlations between major variables. A positive value indicates that both variables tend to increase together, while a negative value indicates an inverse relationship. Variable Screen Time AI Usage Sleep Hours Sleep Quality Daytime Sleepiness **Screen Time** 100.00% 21.99% 1.33% -16.36% 8.08% **AI Usage** 21.99% 100.00% -2.72% -5.02% -3.03% **Sleep Hours** 1.33% -2.72% 100.00% 43.56% -21.84% **Sleep Quality** -16.36% -5.02% 43.56% 100.00% -16.85% **Daytime Sleepiness** 8.08% -3.03% -21.84% -16.85% 100.00% The impact analysis shows that “Significant Sleep Issues” refer to participants who rated their overall sleep quality as “Fairly Bad” or “Very Bad.” This classification helps identify the group experiencing the most pronounced sleep challenges and allows for closer examination of how factors such as screen time, AI usage, and demographic trends may be associated with poorer sleep outcomes. **1.** **Screen Time Impact** Group Sleep Issue Rate (%) High Screen Time (>6h) 20.45% Low Screen Time (≤6h) 11.37% **Percentage Increase** **79.88%** **2. AI Usage Impact** Group Sleep Issue Rate (%) High AI Usage 18.83% Low AI Usage 12.50% **Percentage Increase** **50.65%** These patterns appear to be gradually shifting sleep schedules later into the night. Most respondents reported going to bed between 11 PM and midnight, with wake-up times typically between 6 AM and 7 AM, leaving limited time for restorative sleep when evening screen use continues close to bedtime. Despite these patterns, 63.6% of respondents rated their sleep as “very good.” However, more detailed responses suggest underlying sleep disruption: over half reported difficulty falling asleep at least occasionally, nearly six in ten reported waking during the night, and more than 40% reported experiencing daytime sleepiness. Researchers suggest this disconnect may be due to “normalization,” where gradually declining sleep quality becomes accepted as part of daily life rather than recognized as a health concern. Symptoms such as fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and increased caffeine use may therefore go largely unrecognized as indicators of insufficient rest. Another notable finding is that **more than 90% of respondents reported never using sleep medication**. While this may appear reassuring, it also suggests that sleep disruptions among digitally active professionals and students remain largely unaddressed by healthcare systems, as many individuals continue functioning despite persistent fatigue and therefore rarely seek medical assistance.

The analysis is based on data from 98,340 women beneficiaries in Delhi who accessed counselling services, helplines, mental health centres and community outreach initiatives between April 2024 and March 2025. The findings highlight how mental health challenges among women are evolving across life stages, reflecting the emotional pressures of modern urban life. The data indicates that young women aged 18–25, accounting for 24,573 beneficiaries, frequently report struggles related to unresolved emotional pain, friendship conflicts and blurred personal boundaries. Many in this age group describe difficulties navigating relationships, identity shifts and the pressures of academic and early career expectations. Among women in their prime working years, 33,726 beneficiaries aged 26–49 accessed support services, often reporting feelings of loneliness, relationship-related stress and emotional exhaustion despite active professional and family roles. Mental health professionals note that many women in this stage of life juggle multiple responsibilities, including careers, caregiving roles and family expectations, often leaving limited space to address their own emotional needs. The findings also highlight the growing importance of early mental health engagement. A total of 37,858 girls below the age of 18 were reached through counselling and mental health awareness initiatives, reflecting increasing recognition among families, educators and communities of the importance of addressing emotional well-being during adolescence. Women aged 50 and above, accounting for 2,183 beneficiaries, often reported concerns related to loneliness, family transitions and emotional wellbeing during later life stages. These patterns reflect a broader trend observed across North India, where a significant proportion of women seeking mental health support fall within the working-age group, underscoring the emotional pressures faced by urban women balancing personal aspirations with professional and family responsibilities. Beyond individual experiences, the data highlights broader societal pressures affecting women’s mental well-being. Persistent stigma around discussing mental health, expectations to fulfil multiple caregiving and professional roles, and limited access to timely support often lead women to internalize distress and delay seeking help. > Commenting on the findings, **Neerja Birla, Founder and Chairperson of the Aditya Birla Education Trust and Mpower, said:** ” Women’s mental health is shaped not only by individual experiences but by the systems they navigate every day across work, family and society. Through Mpower’s work across cities and communities, we are seeing more women speak openly about their mental health and seek support. As a society, we must respond by building accessible, stigma free ecosystems across homes, workplaces and communities that enable women to prioritise their wellbeing.” > > **Dr. Preeti Parakh, Psychiatrist and Head, Mpower – The Centre Delhi, added: “**The patterns we are seeing among women in Delhi highlight how emotional needs evolve across life stages. Younger women often struggle with identity and relationship boundaries, while women in their 30s and 40s frequently experience emotional fatigue and loneliness despite active social lives. Understanding these distinct patterns allows us to design mental health support systems that meet women where they are.” > Mental health experts emphasize that addressing these challenges requires stronger support systems across society. Expanding access to counselling services, encouraging open conversations around emotional well-being, integrating mental health awareness in educational institutions, and strengthening workplace support for women can play a critical role in helping women seek help earlier and build resilience. Creating supportive environments where emotional well-being is openly discussed and prioritized can help reduce stigma and ensure that women across life stages have the resources and confidence to access the support they need.

The tumour, which had caused no symptoms, was discovered incidentally after the child sustained a blunt abdominal injury during a karate class at school. Further investigations, including imaging and biopsy, confirmed the diagnosis of **solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN)**, a rare, low-grade malignant tumour of the pancreas that is associated with an excellent prognosis when completely removed. SPN \[1\]accounts for only about 1–3% of all pancreatic tumours and affects less than one person per ten lakh each year. It is seen more commonly in young females, usually in their teens to thirties, and is rarely diagnosed in younger children. The diagnosis came as a shock to the parents, as the child had no prior symptoms and was otherwise active, attending school and carrying out routine activities normally. The family consulted several hospitals before deciding to proceed with surgery. > While speaking about this case, **Dr. Amit Parasnis, HOD and Consultant – Surgical Oncology, Manipal Hospital, Baner, said** “After assessing the pancreatic anatomy during surgery, we performed a central pancreatectomy and were able to preserve the duodenum and part of the pancreas instead of carrying out a more extensive Whipple’s procedure. The surgery was technically challenging because the pancreas lies close to major blood vessels, and children have a lower tolerance for blood loss. However, the tumour was removed safely with minimal bleeding, and pancreatic function was preserved. The patient recovered well, has resumed school and routine activities, and is expected to lead a normal life.” Pancreatic tumours can remain asymptomatic for long periods and may sometimes be detected incidentally. Timely evaluation and multidisciplinary care are important for managing rare conditions, even in young children. > **Mr. Anand Mote, Cluster Director, Manipal Hospital, Baner, Pune** said**,** our multidisciplinary team of professionals, who provide advanced cancer therapy, gastroenterology, and pediatric surgery combined with cutting-edge technology and compassion, makes this service possible. At Manipal Hospitals, our focus remains on providing safe, effective, and patient-centric care, especially in challenging and rare cases.” The surgery was successfully performed by **Dr. Amit Parasnis- Surgical Oncology**, along with **Dr. Ashish Pathak – Anesthesiologist, Dr. Pooja Gire – Pediatrics Intensivist,** and the multidisciplinary team.

The study identifies and resolves molecular “bottlenecks” that have limited the natural production of this drug for over 50 years. Doxorubicin is a chemotherapy drug that was first approved for medical use in the 1970s. It is a cornerstone in treating various cancers, including breast cancer, bladder cancer, lymphomas and carcinomas, with over one million patients receiving the treatment annually. However, bacteria naturally produce this important drug very inefficiently. Consequently, the pharmaceutical industry has relied on expensive, multi-step semi-synthetic processes. ![Researchers break decades-old bottleneck in chemotherapy drug manufacturing](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7wpacavzqc.png) “We have uncovered several independent factors that limit the formation of doxorubicin,” says Researcher, Keith Yamada, PhD, from the University of Turku in Finland, a lead scientist on the study. “By addressing these bottlenecks, we have harnessed rational strain engineering to pave the way for cost-effective manufacturing that can meet growing global demand”. Researchers develop new strain of bacteria that enhances drug production The study was the result of an extensive international collaboration involving a total of six research laboratories: the University of Turku in Finland, three laboratories in the United States, and two in Leiden, the Netherlands. Together, the teams identified three primary constraints that prevent the high-yield production of doxorubicin. Firstly, the team identified the specific natural “biological power supply” — redox partners named Fdx4 and FdR3 — that provide the necessary electron flow to power the drug-producing enzyme. Secondly, they discovered that a protein called DnrV acts as a drug-binding “molecular sponge”. It sequesters (binds and holds) doxorubicin so the drug does not shut down the enzyme’s own production machinery. Last, using X-ray crystallography, the team visualized the enzyme for the first time, revealing that the drug molecule sits in an unfavorable position within the enzyme, explaining the slow reaction rate. By combining these discoveries, the researchers engineered a new strain of bacteria that produces 180% more doxorubicin than current industrial standards. To bring these findings to the real world, the spin-out company Meta-Cells Oy was formed last year at the University of Turku. The company aims to commercialize these advanced technologies for the sustainable manufacturing of essential antibiotics and anti-cancer agents. This shift toward fully biosynthetic production promises a cleaner, more reliable supply of life-saving medicines. The study was published in the renowned journal Nature Communications. > [Read the research article](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-026-69194-6) [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Academic Pressure, Isolation and Family Expectations Weigh on Kolkata Women: Mpower Data Highlights Mental Health Trends in East India](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/academic-pressure-isolation-and-family-expectations-weigh-on-kolkata-women-mpower-data-highlights-mental-health-trends-in-east-india/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Kolkata, Mar 13th:** Academic pressure, emotional isolation and family expectations are emerging as key mental health stressors among women and girls in Kolkata, according to new insights from Mpower an initiative of Aditya Birla Education Trust’s counselling and outreach programmes. The findings are based on interactions with 17,208 female beneficiaries in Kolkata, reached through Mpower’s counselling centres, helplines and community outreach initiatives across the city. The data highlights significant engagement from young girls and adolescents, with 8,982 female beneficiaries below 18 years engaging with mental health initiatives — primarily through outreach and awareness programmes in schools and communities. Mental health professionals say this points to a growing need for early conversations around emotional wellbeing among young people. Among young adult women aged 18–25, 3,753 beneficiaries reached out through various support channels, frequently reporting concerns related to academic pressure, identity struggles, relationship anxieties and career uncertainty. Women aged 26–49, accounting for 3,384 beneficiaries, often spoke about relationship challenges, work–life stress and pressures linked to family expectations, while 1,089 women aged 50 and above reported concerns related to loneliness, family transitions and emotional wellbeing later in life. Mental health professionals note that Kolkata’s emotional landscape reflects the intersection of ambition, cultural expectations and evolving social roles for women, particularly for younger generations navigating academic and career transitions. These city-level insights are part of a broader pattern across eastern India, where Mpower programmes have collectively reached over 148,000 beneficiaries through counselling services, helplines and mental health outreach initiatives. Across the East Zone, counsellors are observing recurring themes of academic stress among young people, emotional isolation, relationship uncertainty and pressures related to balancing personal aspirations with family responsibilities. > **Mrs. Neerja Birla, Founder and Chairperson of the Aditya Birla Education Trust and Mpower, said: “**Women’s mental health is shaped not only by individual experiences but by the systems they navigate every day across work, family and society. Through Mpower’s work across cities and communities, we are seeing more women speak openly about their mental health and seek support. As a society, we must respond by building accessible, stigma free ecosystems across homes, workplaces and communities that enable women to prioritise their wellbeing.” > > **Dr. Preeti Parakh, Psychiatrist, Mpower,Kolkata said:** “What we are seeing in Kolkata is a strong need for early emotional support, particularly among adolescents and young adults. Many young girls are navigating academic expectations, identity formation and changing social dynamics, which can create significant psychological pressure. As women move into adulthood, concerns often shift towards relationship stress, family expectations and balancing personal aspirations with responsibilities. Early access to counselling and open conversations around mental health can play a critical role in helping individuals build coping skills and emotional resilience.” Mental health professionals at Mpower say the growing engagement with counselling and outreach programmes also signals increasing awareness around mental health and the importance of early support. The findings highlight the need for stronger mental health awareness initiatives across educational institutions, communities and workplaces, ensuring that women and girls across eastern India have access to the support they need to navigate emotional challenges and build resilience.

(NYSE:PD), a leader in AI-first operations management, today announced the expansion of its AI integration ecosystem, marking a significant enhancement of its PagerDuty Advance agents and AI platform capabilities to help organizations enable autonomous operations. As development velocity increases and more AI code is generated, the industry faces a critical new challenge—to ensure code does not break in production. Today, PagerDuty has added more than 30 AI partners across 11 categories to its AI integrations website. Through this intuitive, searchable public web directory of integrations and agentic workflows, the PagerDuty Operations Cloud Platform and PagerDuty Advance Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) Agent seamlessly connect with leading AI-native platforms and SaaS enterprise applications and help organizations tackle the challenge of AI operations. **Enabling Critical Use Cases Across the Full Incident Management Lifecycle** PagerDuty’s expanded AI integration ecosystem transforms operations across multiple high-value scenarios. By ingesting rich observability telemetry, PagerDuty’s AI ecosystem powers a self-reinforcing context flywheel that enables automated triage with deep observability context—allowing, for example, PagerDuty’s SRE Agent to automatically correlate alerts, accelerate root-cause analysis and deliver more resilient operational outcomes. The ecosystem also empowers developers and engineers to deliver more reliable code by embedding operational context directly into integrated development environments (IDE) for pre-commit risk scoring and safe deployments, helping to prevent incidents before code can ship. For organizations building AI-powered applications, the ecosystem extends into large language model operations (LLMOps) and agent governance while enabling agentic cloud operations through direct communication between PagerDuty and cloud provider agents for automated remediation and self-healing infrastructure. **Powering the AI-Era with an Integrated Operational Layer** The expanded PagerDuty AI integration ecosystem helps to establish PagerDuty as the indispensable system of intelligence and action for AI-driven operations. With an existing foundation of more than 700 integrations, the ecosystem expands into AI-focused segments spanning agentic operations, coding agents, integrated development environments, enterprise copilots and beyond—enhancing interoperability via Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations for seamless AI-to-platform connectivity. The company’s AI integrations connect through three pathways: partners connecting to PagerDuty’s MCP Server, which enables partners to access service, team, and incident context; PagerDuty’s connections to partner MCP servers for seamless interoperability; and direct API integrations between partner platforms and PagerDuty. These integrations, if enabled by customers, help to power the context flywheel, which becomes smarter with every incident to resolve issues faster and prevent incidents from happening. “Organizations are racing to adopt AI agents, but the real challenge is making them work together seamlessly in production environments,” said Jennifer Tejada, CEO and Chairperson of PagerDuty. “Our AI integration ecosystem solves this by connecting 30-plus AI partners directly into the operational workflows teams already rely on. This means faster incident resolution, reduced downtime, and the ability to prevent issues from impacting customers at all.” **Strategic Partnerships with Key AI Tools** The launch announcement features three upcoming marquee partnerships that demonstrate the power of the ecosystem in action: - **Anthropic/Claude Partnership** PagerDuty launched a plugin for Claude Code, powered by MCP, now listed in the official Anthropic marketplace. This plugin helps developers catch risky code changes before they reach production by analyzing uncommitted changes against historical incident data. The plugin features pre-commit risk scoring that evaluates code deployment safety, along with a background agent that automatically investigates and summarizes incident context. By surfacing potential risks and providing actionable recommendations before code is committed, developers can prevent incidents that impact customer experience and avoid costly emergency responses—all without leaving their development environment. - **Cursor Partnership** PagerDuty’s newly launched MCP plugin for Cursor, now available in the official Cursor Marketplace, offers a one-step installation that brings critical operational context directly into the Cursor developer workflow. Developers can access on-call schedules, service information, and incident history without leaving their AI coding platform. When incidents occur, Cursor can automatically trigger agents to investigate logs and summarize potential root causes in real-time. This empowers developers to resolve incidents more quickly and build with confidence. - **LangChain Partnership** As application logic moves from code to the model, LLM apps and agents fail in ways traditional monitoring misses: silent degradation, inconsistent outputs, regressions that do not throw errors. Catching these problems fast and routing them to the right people requires observability and incident management to work together. LangSmith’s native integration triggers PagerDuty incidents when it detects critical issues like error spikes, latency increases, or feedback score drops. Teams get notified through their existing PagerDuty workflows without additional configuration. LangChain and PagerDuty also collaborated on an Incident Responder agent template for LangSmith’s Agent Builder. Built on PagerDuty’s MCP server, it lets teams create an agent that analyzes alerts, cross-references your runbook, and recommends actions.

One path begins early, in embryonic development, when a protein complex called PRC2, which regulates cell differentiation, identity, and plasticity, becomes dysfunctional. PRC2 has well-established links to breast, prostate, blood, and skin cancers, among others. Now researchers in the former Laboratory of Chromatin Biology and Epigenetics, headed by C. David Allis until his death in early 2023, have discovered surprising new details about the mechanics of this protein complex, which could potentially lead to new cancer therapies. The findings were published in Genes & Development. It turns out that a small region of the complex long considered merely structural actually makes the entire protein function. And when researchers removed the region, called the SBD, the cancers they tested were stopped in their tracks. “The SBD serves as a mechanical switch necessary for both healthy embryonic development and the maintenance of certain malignancies,” **says lead author Agata Patriotis,** a former member of the Allis lab and now a postdoc at the Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at MIT. “This domain could potentially be targeted by cancer inhibitors.” **Off switches** Allis, a pioneer in chromatin biology, discovered that the modification of histone proteins—previously thought of as mere spools for packaging DNA in the cell nucleus of all non-prokaryotic organisms—plays a critical role in turning gene expression on and off. One of those histone modifiers is PRC2 (polycomb repressive complex 2), an epigenetic regulator that silences certain genes during early development. It’s so essential that it’s found in organisms across the animal kingdom. PRC2 manages this feat by adding a chemical marker—a methyl group—to a specific amino acid on the tail of the H3 histone (H3K27), which effectively acts as an off switch. This protein complex is made of multiple subunits. One, called EZH2, is the part that interacts with the histone tail. In recent years, cryo-EM structural studies showed that a specific region of the EZH2 subunit, called the SBD, bends and changes shape when the protein is activated. It was unexpected—a shape shift suggested that the SBD wasn’t an inert bit of EZH2’s architecture, as had long been assumed, but instead functional in some way. It was Allis who suggested that Patriotis investigate what SBD’s might be doing. “Dave was very curious about histone modifications, and he was particularly excited about this research’s potential to discover something fundamental about PRC2,” **Patriotis says.** **Functional necessity** For the current study, the researchers deleted SBD from the protein complex to see what the impact might be. Despite its absence, PRC2 remained intact, demonstrating that SBD wasn’t essential to its architectural integrity. That was surprise number one. “Our hypothesis had been that the SBD was important for stability and that the complex wouldn’t be able to assemble without it, but that turned out to not be true,” **Patriotis says.** Surprise number two came when they discovered that the SBD was, however, critically important to PRC2’s ability to function—without it, it could not do its main job of repressing the activation of certain genes. Specifically, the absence of the SBD prevented the complex from methylating its target histone, H3K27, and therefore certain genes were missing their off switches. “The SBD domain has a really fundamental role in regulating the whole complex,**” says Patriotis**. “Its absence prevents the EZH2 enzyme from spreading repressive chemical marks across the genome.” **A new inhibition target** Because mutations in the EZH2 subunit are linked to a number of cancers, they next investigated the impact a missing SBD might have on the proliferation of cancer cells. Remarkably, they found that removing the SBD halts the growth of aggressive lymphomas driven by EZH2 mutations. It also normalizes gene expression, mimicking the effects of powerful clinical cancer inhibitors. “The SBD domain could potentially be used to inhibit the enzymatic activity of PRC2,” Patriotis says. “It’s a vulnerable interface.” For Patriotis, this study continues the Allis lab’s legacy of producing fundamental biological insights. “David very much cared about gene expression and transcription in terms of histone function,” she notes. “But he also believed there was something special about every single enzyme that is shared across the biosphere. Those molecules, like PRC2, really tell you what has fundamental importance and what doesn’t.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Trèsind Mumbai Introduces Chef’s Table: Exploring India](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/tresind-mumbai-introduces-chefs-table-exploring-india/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Trèsind Mumbai Introduces Chef’s Table: Exploring India](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/r1190zum4.jpg) **Mumbai, Mar 13th:** Trèsind Mumbai, the iconic and celebrated modernist Indian restaurant, announces the launch of an all-new experiential format – **Chef’s Table: Exploring India** – an intimate, research-led 10-course tasting journey that celebrates India’s regional diversity, culinary philosophies, cultural festivals, and chef identities. The first edition debuts on **12th March** in the restaurant’s Private Dining Room (PDR), setting the stage for an immersive dining narrative designed to push the boundaries of contemporary Indian cuisine. Conceptualised as more than just a tasting menu, Chef’s Table is a cultural storytelling platform.

The conclave witnessed the launch of four major initiatives designed to strengthen transparency, community participation and institutional integrity in India’s rapidly evolving carbon market ecosystem. Together, these launches aim to build the foundational architecture required to scale high-integrity, community-centred carbon markets in the country while connecting grassroots climate action to global climate finance. The conclave witnessed participation from leading policymakers, climate experts and industry leaders including **Sunita Narain, Director General, Centre for Science and Environment; Prof. Gopal Sarangi, TERI School of Advanced Studies; Jasmeet Singh, CEO, Fair Climate Fund India; and Mrinal Ranjan, General Manager, NABARD**, along with representatives from government institutions, development organisations, financial institutions and civil society working at the intersection of carbon markets, climate finance and ecosystem restoration. **Carbon Markets Landscape Study** The conclave launched the **“India’s Carbon Market Landscape”** study, one of the most comprehensive analyses of India’s carbon market ecosystem to date. Developed by the Centre for Grower-centric Eco-value Mechanisms (C-GEM), the report maps the policy, market, technology and grassroots dimensions shaping India’s carbon economy. The study identifies a potential **$49 billion domestic carbon market by 2030**, highlighting India’s growing role as a global hub for climate finance. It also examines structural challenges around market governance, credit integrity and equitable value distribution across the carbon value chain. **Principles for Responsible Carbon Markets** A second major launch was the **Principles for Responsible Carbon Markets (PRCM)**, a community-centred integrity framework designed to ensure that carbon markets deliver credible climate outcomes while protecting the rights and economic interests of farmers and local communities. The framework introduces safeguards around **free, prior and informed consent (FPIC), transparent carbon accounting, fair benefit-sharing mechanisms, responsible data governance and community revenue participation**, positioning communities as central actors in the design and governance of carbon projects. **Community Guidebooks on Carbon Markets** Recognising the growing role of rural landscapes in climate mitigation, the conclave also launched **Community Guidebooks on Carbon Markets** aimed at equipping farmer collectives, grassroots organisations and local institutions with practical knowledge to engage with emerging carbon markets. The guidebooks translate complex carbon market concepts into accessible guidance, helping communities understand how carbon credits are generated, verified and traded, what participation in carbon projects entails, and how farmers can evaluate contracts and benefit-sharing arrangements. **Community-Centric Carbon Platform (CCCP)** In a significant step toward building digital infrastructure for climate finance, the conclave unveiled the Community-Centric Carbon Platform (CCCP) — a new digital public infrastructure designed to connect farmers, community institutions and project developers with carbon markets. Developed by C-GEM in collaboration with Primus Partners, the platform integrates farm-level climate data, measurement and verification systems, project aggregation tools and transparent credit-tracking mechanisms. The platform aims to reduce transaction costs, improve traceability and create greater visibility for community-led climate action. **Sameer Jain, CEO, Primus Solutions,** stressed the necessity of a transparent ecosystem that connects credible, community-led projects with responsible international investors. “While global climate finance continues to grow rapidly, a significant gap remains in ensuring that this capital reaches communities that are actively protecting forests, restoring ecosystems, and managing natural resources. The Community-Centric Carbon Platform has been designed to bridge this gap by creating a trusted ecosystem that connects credible community-led climate initiatives with responsible climate finance. By bringing together NGOs, project developers, investors, and CSR partners on a transparent digital platform, we hope to unlock scalable, high-integrity climate and carbon projects emerging from India’s rural landscapes,” he said. Speaking at the launch, **Shri Praveen Pardeshi, CEO** of the Maharashtra Institution for Transformation (MITRA), highlighted the importance of building inclusive digital infrastructure for carbon markets. “As India moves towards the vision of Viksit Bharat, states like Maharashtra have an opportunity to build growth pathways that are both economically strong and environmentally sustainable. The transition towards public transport systems, renewable energy and sustainable infrastructure will play a critical role in shaping this journey. Carbon markets can emerge as an important mechanism to support these transitions while enabling states and communities to unlock new climate-linked economic opportunities,” he said. “India’s carbon market opportunity lies not only in climate mitigation but also in empowering communities that are actively managing landscapes and natural resources. Creating credible systems for measurement, verification and transparent benefit-sharing will be critical to ensuring that carbon markets deliver both environmental integrity and meaningful livelihood opportunities. Platforms and frameworks emerging from initiatives like the Bharat Carbon Conclave can help build the trust and institutional mechanisms needed to scale community-driven climate action,” **said Siddharth Dabhi.** Pooja Lahiri also emphasised the importance of designing carbon markets that combine environmental credibility with social equity. “Building a robust carbon market ecosystem in India will require collaboration across policymakers, industry, financial institutions and community stakeholders. Initiatives emerging from the Bharat Carbon Conclave highlight how knowledge, governance frameworks and digital innovation can come together to strengthen India’s climate finance architecture while ensuring that communities remain at the centre of this transition,” she said. The four initiatives together form a broader ecosystem approach to carbon market development, spanning knowledge creation, governance frameworks, community capacity building and digital infrastructure. As India advances its domestic carbon market framework under the Carbon Credit Trading Scheme (CCTS), such initiatives are expected to play a critical role in ensuring that climate finance flows effectively to landscapes managed by farmers, forest communities and rural institutions.

Yet for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), that gateway remains limited. Although work supports better health, social connection and a sense of purpose, only about 15% of individuals with IDD are employed in competitive, integrated work settings. This disparity persists despite federal programs like supported employment, which offers ongoing job coaching to help people with significant disabilities find and keep competitive jobs, and customized employment, which adapts job roles to match the strengths and needs of both employees and employers. This highlights a critical gap in research and practice. High turnover among job coaches, inconsistent support and ongoing social and environmental challenges, such as navigating workplace expectations and interacting with coworkers, continue to limit long-term job retention and success. To address these barriers, Florida Atlantic University researchers explored the potential of using augmented reality (AR) as a job coaching tool to improve job training and workforce opportunities for individuals with IDD. The study examined a novel AR-based application designed to function as a job coach, delivering real-time, context-specific guidance to support the completion of complex job tasks. The study tested how well an AR-based job coach could help people with IDD improve their performance and work more independently. For the study, participants worked as library assistants and practiced shelving books. Researchers specifically chose this job because it demands complex skills like reading, listening and critical thinking – abilities that are often viewed as challenging for individuals with IDD when performing job tasks. The research aimed to see if AR technology could help individuals perform these complex tasks. The results were striking. During the baseline phase, participants demonstrated consistently low performance, completing an average of just 14% of task steps correctly, highlighting the difficulty of the vocational task without additional support. When the AR intervention was introduced, performance improved immediately and dramatically. Average task accuracy increased to 93%, with some participants reaching 100%, and all met mastery criteria by completing at least 90% of task steps correctly and independently across four consecutive sessions. Published in the journal Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, the findings underscore the transformative potential of AR as a job coach. By delivering real-time, context-specific guidance, the AR application enabled participants to perform complex job tasks with minimal external support, significantly increasing training efficiency. Notably, participants reached at least 75% accuracy and independence after just a 15-minute AR-supported training session – a process that typically takes two to four months with traditional job coaching. > “Our findings show that augmented reality can dramatically accelerate job training for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities by breaking complex tasks into manageable, real-time supports,” **said Ayse Torres, Ph.D.**, senior author and an associate professor in counselor education in FAU’s College of Education, and an associate professor, Department of Biomedical Engineering within FAU’s College of Engineering and Computer Science. “While technology is rapidly reshaping the workforce, AR offers a promising way to ensure individuals with disabilities are not left behind – but instead are empowered to succeed in meaningful, competitive employment.” The study suggests that AR could offer a cost-effective, scalable alternative to traditional job coaching in supported employment programs for individuals with IDD. While AR requires an initial investment, its ability to deliver real-time guidance, reduce ongoing one-on-one support, and scale to many users with minimal added cost positions it as a financially sustainable solution. > “What makes this approach especially exciting is its sustainability,” **said Torres.** “If we can use technology to help people work more independently while allowing programs to stretch their resources further, we create a system that benefits individuals, employers and service providers alike.” Study co-authors are Kelly B. Kearney, Ed.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Special Education, FAU College of Education; Alexandro Galvez-Vega, a graduate assistant in FAU’s College of Engineering and Computer Science; Dariush Hassan, a software engineer in FAU’s Sensing Institute (ISENSE); Mahesh Neelakanta, director of information technology services, FAU University Libraries; and Hari Kalva, Ph.D., chair and professor, FAU Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. This research was supported by the Switzer Research Fellowship awarded to Torres by the National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and Rehabilitation Research. Additional support for this research was provided by the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, Northwestern University, through the C-STAR Collaborative Mentorship Funding.

Exports were always linked to tangible goods, i.e. textiles, machinery, automobiles or farm products, which were the main types of exports over decades. Another less noisy but more radical export business is being born today and that is the export of knowledge, skills and professional expertise. India is the only country that stands in a position to emerge as one of the largest providers of skilled human capital in the world in this changing environment. The nation has already built a good reputation regarding export of IT services and technology professionals. But this trend in the next phase is much wider. Starting with the medical staff and engineers, and going all the way to artificial intelligence experts, logistics experts, and financial analysts, the skilled labor force in India is emerging as a vital asset to the global economy. With labor shortages becoming a significant problem in most developed countries, the exports of knowledge and talent in India are gaining significance as an economic tool. ### The Long History of Indian Exports of Talent. The fact that India is a talent hub in the global arena did not come into existence overnight. Millions of Indian professionals have developed careers in the international markets in the last three decades. The world has benefited a lot through engineers, doctors, researchers, and technology specialists. The initial large-scale influence on this trend was in IT services. The Indian technology professionals started to assist international firms by providing software development, technical consulting and digital services. India today has a substantial portion of the world IT outsourcing market that brings in billions of dollars in yearly export earnings. This success laid a platform to the further exporting of skills in other knowledge based industries. ### Growing Beyond Information Technology Although technology services are still a significant source of demand, the global demand of skilled workers is growing in other areas. Most countries have been experiencing shortage of nurses, medical technicians, and healthcare administrators. The infrastructure development, renewable energy projects and advanced manufacturing require engineering talent. The development of artificial intelligence and data science is generating novel needs of specialists with the ability to handle intricate digital systems. The education system of India generates millions of graduates annually in science, engineering, medicine and management fields. This enormous pool of talented workers will be an automatic advantage when it comes to addressing the global workforce needs. An Indian-trained healthcare professional relocates overseas to practice in a healthcare system that has a shortage of staff. Their skills assist them in enhancing the treatment of patients besides facilitating the stability of the healthcare system. Meanwhile, the professional remits money back to India and reinforces household incomes and national economy. The two in one advantage of helping global industries and at the same time increasing the economic inflows of India is one of the reasons why the issue of talent exports is gaining momentum. ### Emerging Global Talent Sectors There are a number of industries that will probably spearhead the further talent export development in India. ▫️Nurses and other health care professionals. ▫️Data science experts and artificial intelligence. ▫️Civil and mechanical professionals. ▫️Logistics and supply chain managers. ▫️Renewable energy engineers and technicians. ▫️Financial and business analyst experts. Due to the new technologies that have been embraced by the global industries and the expansion of emerging markets, demands of skilled professionals will keep growing. Indicatively, renewable energy projects all over the world are in need of engineers, environmental experts, and technical managers who can execute mass solar and wind energy generation systems. Likewise, the global supply chains rely on logistics specialists that will operate intricate transportation systems and computerized inventory. The growing technical education system in India is in a good position to provide talent towards such new positions. ### Remote Work and Digital Connectivity The other significant trend that has increased the pace of talent exports is the emergence of remote work and online collaboration. Previously skills used to be exported by physical migration. Nowadays, numerous professionals have a chance to work with international customers without moving to their country. Remote service delivery has enabled Indian professionals to offer consulting, engineering design, financial analysis and software development services to clients abroad through the domestic bases. The international infrastructure projects are worked on digitally by a team of engineers located in India. Their experience is working on global projects as they are physically based in India. This model enables the companies to get quality talent and minimize the cost of operation. Working remotely has successfully transformed professional skills into a service that is traded globally. ### Strategic Assets Education and Skill Development India should also keep on investing in education, development of skills and vocational training to maintain this momentum. The future of the country in the global knowledge economy will be based on the talent quality. Skill development programs, training institutes, and special training are also becoming more inclined towards emerging technologies and industry applicable skills. The cooperation between the universities and industries can facilitate in making sure that the graduates have the hands-on skills that are needed by the employers around the globe. Proficiency in language, digital literacy, and cross-cultural communication will also be important in making professionals international career ready. ### Economic Effect of Exporting Talent Exportation of knowledge and skills create a lot of economic gains. Indian economy receives billions of dollars annually in remittances by the overseas professionals. These inflows aid household consumption, education, housing and investment. Moreover, international exposure enables the Indian professionals to have international experience, high technical expertise, and leadership skills. A number of them end up going back to India where they export knowledge to boost the domestic industries. Such a flow of talent, also known as the circulation of talent, or the circulation of brain, as opposed to brain drain, can enhance innovation and economic development. ### The future of the Knowledge Economy of India With the increasing global economies that are becoming more knowledge based, skilled human capital will remain an increasingly important issue. The nations that have high and well-educated populations will enjoy a great edge in this new economic climate. The demographic situation in India, along with its growing education system and digital nature makes it well-positioned to make this transition. With a sustained investment in human capital and international alliances, talent exports would be one of the most valuable sectors of the Indian economy.

Their outcomes can affect promotions, help organizations identify which employees are best suited for training programs, and even gauge a teacher’s effectiveness in the classroom. There’s just one problem: people often rely on generalized impressions or vague memories when completing these questionnaires, which can lead to inaccurate responses. And yet, organizations often rely heavily on this type of feedback. So, is there a way to make these ratings more reliable? Binghamton University School of Management Associate Professor Tiffany Keller Hansbrough is leading a research team determined to find out, through a series of five studies made possible by a $1 million grant from the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences. Their goal: reduce the gap between what we believe ratings capture and the quality of information they actually provide. “When the person filling out the ratings doesn’t think the ratings are particularly important, and considering our default way of thinking isn’t always as careful as we’d like it to be, you get a ‘perfect storm’ for inaccurate performance ratings,” Hansbrough said. “Our default way of thinking relies on a gap-filling process, but how do we nudge people into a more careful way of thinking? That’s not something we’re likely to do automatically in these situations, so it’s a tough problem to crack.” Tiffany Keller Hansbrough, associate professor of leadership and organizational behavior at the Binghamton University School of Management. Image Credit: Jonathan Cohen. The researchers began by looking at the words used in the evaluation questions and statements, which can sometimes prompt people to endorse behaviors that didn’t actually occur. For example, a question might ask an employee to rate, “My manager wants to know about my career plans.” The employee might not have an exact memory of the manager sitting down and asking, “What’s your five-year plan?” But because they like their manager, the employee might be inclined to agree with this statement if it seems like something the manager might have done. The opposite can also be true, Hansbrough added, especially if the employee has a negative relationship with that manager. Questions can also be strategically designed to nudge people to think more carefully about how to respond, Hansbrough said. Specific questions force the brain to stop and retrieve a particular “video clip” of memory. Instead of relying on a general feeling, raters would access this “episodic” memory, recalling specific instances of behavior. “Incorporates market trends into project planning” is an example of something more concrete that would move people to episodic memory and reduce gap-filling, Hansbrough said. Questions like those about specific behaviors also provide leaders with feedback about what they should start doing or stop doing. In contrast, Hansbrough said, vague questions about “leadership presence” offer no clues about how leaders can improve. When high-performers receive vague feedback about their work, Hansbrough and fellow researchers argue, they become frustrated because they do not see a path to advancement. However, specific details about behaviors provide a clearer path forward. Hansbrough and her fellow researchers are in the midst of data collection for several studies to test their theory. “Performance evaluations are super important, and they play out in many different sectors,” Hansbrough said. “Giving people developmental feedback so they can improve is a great idea, but it hinges on the assumption that the data from those performance evaluations is valid and accurate, and this type of feedback hasn’t always lived up to its promise. It’s like a stack of blocks; if it’s not done right, everything collapses.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Masterclass Space Launches VITEEE 2026 Test Series Aligned with New Marking Scheme and Exam Trends](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/masterclass-space-launches-viteee-2026-test-series-aligned-with-new-marking-scheme-and-exam-trends/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 13th:** Masterclass Space, an online learning platform founded by BITS Pilani alumni and supported by graduates from IITs and IIMs, has announced the launch of its VITEEE Test Series 2026, designed to help engineering aspirants prepare effectively for the VITEEE. The newly launched test series is crafted to closely replicate the latest VITEEE exam pattern and difficulty level, offering students a realistic exam simulation before they attempt the actual paper. With VITEEE introducing a revised marking scheme of +4 for every correct answer and −1 for every incorrect answer, the 2026 edition has been updated to fully align with the new guidelines. Based on extensive feedback from previous batches, the difficulty level of the test papers has been recalibrated to better reflect the evolving trends of VITEEE. The structure, question distribution, and marking logic have been carefully designed to mirror the actual exam environment, ensuring aspirants are well-prepared for both accuracy and time management under negative marking conditions. One of the core strengths of the VITEEE Test Series 2026 lies in its comprehensive performance analysis. After each test, students receive: - Section-wise score breakdown - Time spent per section and per question - Comparative analysis with toppers - Insights into peer performance trends This data-driven analysis enables aspirants to identify weak areas, refine their test-taking strategy, and optimize time allocation. According to Masterclass Space, in previous years, students’ actual VITEEE scores have consistently fallen within ±15% of their mock test scores, demonstrating strong alignment with the real exam in terms of pattern, difficulty, and topic weightage. When VITEEE was conducted for 125 marks, several students who consistently scored 110+ in mock tests went on to secure 100–110 marks in the actual examination, helping them secure preferred branches and admission under Category 1, the most economical fee category at Vellore Institute of Technology. The test series has been curated by experienced faculty members from IITs, IIMs, and BITS Pilani, many of whom have over a decade of experience in competitive exam mentoring. The content is continuously refined using detailed student feedback and past exam analysis, making the series increasingly relevant with each edition. The test series is available online via the Masterclass Space test platform and mobile application and will remain accessible until the last day of VITEEE 2026. A free demo test is also available, allowing students to experience the test interface and analytics before purchasing. > **Sharing his thoughts, Founder Aditya Shanker Raghwanshi said,** “We launched the VITEEE Test Series after the immense success of our BITSAT program. Similar to BITSAT, relevance and detailed analysis remain the core pillars of our VITEEE series. Our aim is to provide aspirants with maximum practice, in-depth analysis, and continuous improvement so they can achieve their dream score in VITEEE.” With its close proximity to the real exam, detailed analytics, upgraded marking scheme integration, and consistent student outcomes, Masterclass Space’s VITEEE Test Series 2026 aims to empower serious aspirants with structured, strategic, and result-oriented preparation. For engineering aspirants targeting VIT in 2026, the platform offers not just mock tests but a comprehensive preparation ecosystem designed to translate practice into performance.

Mar 13th: Researchers at the University at Albany and Rutgers University have developed an early-warning framework that can predict harmful social media interactions before they erupt, paving the way for interventions that can minimize harm and make platforms safer for users. Using publicly available datasets from Reddit and Instagram, two social media platforms with distinct conversation dynamics, researchers trained models to predict from just the first 10 comments whether a thread would escalate into “concentrated waves of toxic interactions” — or what they have dubbed a “negative storm” or “neg storm.” These “neg storms” are distinct from isolated abusive remarks, said Pradeep Atrey, associate professor in the Department of Computer Science at UAlbany’s College of Nanotechnology, Science, and Engineering. Most research focuses on detecting whether an individual comment is toxic, but misses the situational dynamics that can cause a social media thread to escalate, he said. “We like to give the analogy, would you rather detect a burning tree or a burning forest? In isolation, it could be a burning tree,” he said. “But if you look at the entire situation, it could be a burning forest.” The early-warning framework could prove useful to social media platforms that are looking to prevent toxic social media situations from escalating, researchers said. Online moderators could be equipped with tools to slow or stop harmful interactions before they occur, they said. Detecting a Burning Forest Atrey collaborated with Irien Akter, a PhD student in Computer Science at UAlbany, and Vivek Singh, an associate professor of Library and Information Science at Rutgers University, on the model, which they unveiled in a paper presented at the IEEE International Symposium on Multimedia Conference in Italy this past December. Their paper introduces a new metric, Comment Storm Severity (CSS), which quantifies how intensely toxicity concentrates on a social media thread within a short span of time, normalized against early baseline behavior. A “neg storm” develops once the CSS exceeds a predefined threshold. Notably, their analysis found early signals within just the first 10 comments can indicate whether a social media thread is going to escalate into a toxic wave of interactions. Signals include comment timing and text pattern, said Akter, a second-year PhD student working in Atrey’s lab. “When comments arrive quickly and start showing small toxic cues, that timing pattern is often more predictive than the actual words,” she said. Most automated moderation in online communities treats toxicity as a problem to be solved one comment at a time, with per-comment models often trained on text devoid of any broader context. This can encode biases and over-flag language from marginalized dialect communities, researchers state. Taking both timing of comments and content cues into account proved most accurate for detecting whether escalation would occur, they found. This is because harm often arises from the evolution of a thread over time, where sequences of replies can accumulate into a burst. “To move from looking at trees to seeing forests, we argue for modeling situations, not isolated events,” researchers wrote. Early Warning, Early Intervention The findings have practical relevance for social media platforms. By forecasting several trajectories from the earliest comments, platforms could shift to more proactive moderation strategies that anticipate and react to harm before it unfolds. “The key is that if we can predict a toxic event before it occurs, we can implement safeguards to prevent it,” said Singh, who has been collaborating with Atrey and Akter. Social media companies could integrate early-detection tools into their platforms that flag when a thread is predicted to escalate. At that point, moderators could apply friction such as rate limits, subtle background changes, warning nudges, or temporary slow-mode before storms fully form. Moderators could also route uncertain or high-risk cases for further review using calibrated probabilities. Future research could delve into the network status of commenters — things like recent activity, post history and followers — to determine whether a thread is likely to escalate, Akter said. “Social media is an integral part of our daily life nowadays,” she said. “Everyone wants to check what’s going on around the world, to share their thoughts and pictures, to connect with families and with society. Our model aims to create a safe social media environment for everyone.” **Categories:** business --- ### [Paralympic Committee of India organizes “New Delhi World Para Athletics Grand Prix 2026” - ISIC Multispeciality Hospital is the Medical Partner](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/paralympic-committee-of-india-organizes-new-delhi-world-para-athletics-grand-prix-2026-isic-multispeciality-hospital-is-the-medical-partner/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Paralympic Committee of India organizes “New Delhi World Para Athletics Grand Prix 2026” - ISIC Multispeciality Hospital is the Medical Partner](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/z63w4tyxz2.JPG) **New Delhi, Mar 13th: ISIC Multispecialty Hospital (ISIC)** extends its sincere gratitude to the **Paralympic Committee of India (PCI)** for appointing ISIC as the **Official Medical Partner for the prestigious New Delhi World Para Athletics Grand Prix 2026**, currently being held at India’s iconic **Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium**.

The partnership marks a significant milestone in building a circular ecosystem for lubricant oil management and advancing India’s transition towards a resource-efficient and low-carbon economy. This pioneering collaboration demonstrates how industry partnerships can accelerate circular resource flows, strengthen environmental governance, and build resilient energy and materials infrastructure for the future. By enabling systematic recovery and re-refining of used lubricants, the initiative will help reduce reliance on virgin crude-derived base oils while conserving natural resources and lowering foreign exchange outflows. The collaboration will focus on establishing a dedicated **Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV)** to create a nationwide reverse logistics and collection ecosystem for used lubricating oil. The platform will aggregate used lubricants from industrial and automotive sectors and develop advanced **Re-Refined Base Oil (RRBO)** refining infrastructure to produce **Group I and Group II+ base oils** from recovered lubricants in partnership with Re Sustainability and its technology partners. **Mr. Bankim Patra, Country Head (Lubes), Indian Oil Corporation Limited**, said: “As India’s largest integrated energy company, Indian Oil is committed to advancing solutions that strengthen both energy security and environmental responsibility. This collaboration reflects our commitment to building sustainable value chains that enable responsible recovery, reuse, and circular utilisation of lubricants. By formalising the collection and recycling of used oil, we are supporting a more resource-efficient and sustainable energy ecosystem for India.” Under the collaboration, recovered oil will be processed to produce **Re-Refined Base Oil (RRBO)** which can be reintroduced into lubricant manufacturing value chains. This circular approach significantly reduces dependence on virgin crude-derived base oils while strengthening material efficiency across the lubricants sector. Speaking on the collaboration, **Mr. Masood Mallick, Managing Director & Group CEO, Re Sustainability Limited**, said: “India’s journey towards a circular economy requires large-scale systems that can recover value from complex waste streams and reintegrate them into productive use. Our partnership with Indian Oil marks a transformative step towards institutionalising structured oil recycling in India. By building an integrated ecosystem for used lubricant recovery and re-refining, we are enabling the transition from waste management to resource recovery while strengthening India’s environmental infrastructure and circular economy.” The **MoU is signed**, with a targeted annual collection of **100 KTA (kilotonnes per annum)** of used lubricating oil supported by a structured nationwide network of aggregation, logistics, and traceability systems. As part of the initiative, the partners will establish a **state-of-the-art re-refining facility** at mutually agreed locations. The project will include both the development of new infrastructure and the upgrade of existing facilities designed to process used lubricating oil and convert it into **Group II Re-Refined Base Oil (RRBO)** meeting **Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS)** and international specifications. The facility is expected to have a **processing capacity of 50–100 KTA** and is targeted to be commissioned within the next three years, forming the foundation for a scalable oil recovery and circular recycling ecosystem under the partnership. The initiative will also include **recovery and recycling of plastic lubricant containers**, aligned with **Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)** requirements under India’s environmental regulations, thereby strengthening compliance and enabling responsible lifecycle management of lubricant packaging. India currently generates approximately **1.3 million tonnes of used lubricating oil annually**, of which only around **0.2 million tonnes** is recovered through formal recycling channels. This initiative aims to significantly expand formal recovery infrastructure, unlock the resource value of used lubricants, and accelerate India’s transition toward a **circular, resource-efficient, and sustainable lubricant economy**.

The findings were recently published in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology. The research challenges the long-held assumption that people can achieve perfect multitasking through practice. Instead, the study shows that while training may improve performance speed and reduce errors, the brain still processes tasks sequentially rather than in true parallel. The researchers conducted three experiments in which participants were asked to complete two tasks at the same time using different senses. Participants had to indicate the size of a briefly displayed circle using their right hand while simultaneously identifying whether a sound played was high, medium, or low. Scientists measured both the speed of responses and the number of mistakes made. The tests were repeated over a period of up to twelve days. Results showed that participants improved over time, completing both tasks faster and with fewer errors as they practiced. Earlier research had suggested that such improvement could lead to “virtually perfect time sharing,” where multitasking performance losses disappear almost entirely. However, the new findings contradict that idea. According to psychologist Torsten Schubert from Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg, the brain does not process the tasks fully in parallel. Even minor changes to the tasks significantly increased error rates and slowed participants’ responses. > “Our brain is very adept at sequencing processes so they no longer interfere with each other,” **Schubert** explained. “However, this optimisation has its limits. In particularly challenging situations, our cognitive system becomes tired quickly and more prone to errors.” The study also has important implications for safety in everyday life and professional environments. Multitasking situations—such as driving while talking on the phone—can become risky despite familiarity or routine. Tilo Strobach from Medical School Hamburg noted that the findings are particularly relevant for professions that require managing multiple tasks simultaneously, including air traffic controllers and simultaneous translators. Meanwhile, Roman Liepelt from FernUniversität in Hagen emphasized that the research offers valuable insight into the limits of human information processing. > “Understanding these cognitive bottlenecks is crucial for improving work processes, learning environments, and safety measures in everyday life,” Liepelt said. The study provides new evidence that while the brain can become highly efficient with practice, true multitasking remains beyond its limits.

In an era where professional ambition is increasingly intertwined with long work hours, late-night screen exposure and constant digital engagement, restorative sleep has quietly become one of the first casualties of modern lifestyles. The film reflects a reality many people recognise but rarely question. Waking up through the night, struggling to return to sleep, or beginning the day feeling tired despite a full night in bed have become experiences many dismiss as routine fatigue. What many fail to realise is, these patterns often signal deeper disruptions in the body’s natural rhythm. The campaign film draws attention to the fact that sleep is far more than rest. It is a critical biological process during which the body restores balance across essential systems including brain function, metabolism, hormonal regulation and immunity. Despite its importance, sleep disturbances are becoming increasingly widespread and these patterns eventually influence memory, concentration, emotional balance, metabolic health and cardiovascular wellbeing. Commenting on the initiative, **Mr.** **Rajiv Vasudevan, Founder, MD and CEO, Apollo AyurVAID**, said, > *“Modern professional life has quietly normalised chronic fatigue, poor sleep and declining vitality as an unavoidable cost of ambition. In reality, these are often early signals that the body’s natural balance is being pushed beyond its limits. At Apollo AyurVAID, we speak about the idea of peak health, a state where individuals are not merely free from illness, but are able to sustain high levels of energy, clarity and resilience in their everyday lives. Through this campaign, we hope to shift the conversation around sleep from something people sacrifice to something they consciously protect. Restorative sleep is fundamental to sustained performance, sound decision-making and long-term wellbeing. Recognising its importance early is often the first step towards restoring balance and enabling people to function at their true potential.”* Viewed through an Ayurvedic lens, sleep deprivation is not merely a lifestyle inconvenience but a reflection of a deeper imbalance in the body’s natural equilibrium. Restoring healthy sleep, therefore, requires addressing the root causes through balanced daily routines or *dinacharya*, appropriate diet, mind-calming practices and personalised therapeutic care that helps realign the body’s internal rhythms. In this context, the film reflects Apollo AyurVAID’s broader philosophy of helping individuals achieve and sustain peak health amid the pressures of modern lifestyles. Many professionals today live with subtle but persistent imbalances such as poor sleep, chronic stress and reduced vitality that gradually affect both well-being and productivity. Prolonged sleep disturbances, fatigue, morning dullness, or trouble staying asleep, should not be ignored, as they may signal deeper imbalance. Apollo AyurVAID encourages early recognition and guidance, with specialists ready to restore natural rhythm and support long‑term wellbeing. To further mark World Sleep Day, Apollo AyurVAID will host free Ayurveda Sleep Clinics on 13 March across its centres in India, offering specialist consultations and personalised guidance for sleep-related concerns.

The report highlighted that companies in the Nifty 500 index posted a 16 per cent year-on-year increase in profits in the third quarter of FY26, marking the strongest earnings growth seen in nearly two years. The performance reflects improving profitability across sectors and indicates a gradual strengthening of corporate balance sheets. Despite this positive earnings momentum, domestic stock markets have not witnessed a major rally and have remained largely range-bound for more than a year. Analysts attribute this trend to external factors, including global economic uncertainties and geopolitical risks, which continue to influence market movements. According to market experts, strengthening corporate earnings provide a solid base for the long-term growth of Indian equities. However, global developments have created volatility and limited the immediate upside in the markets. The report also pointed to improving domestic economic indicators. Credit growth in the banking sector has returned to double-digit levels, signalling a rise in economic activity and demand for loans. Meanwhile, consumption trends have shown signs of recovery following recent policy measures, including tax relief through GST adjustments. Monetary policy easing has also supported the economy. The Reserve Bank of India’s cumulative rate cuts and liquidity measures have helped reduce borrowing costs for businesses and households, which could support investment and consumption in the coming quarters. However, emerging global trends are creating new challenges. The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence technologies has raised concerns about potential short-term disruptions in India’s IT services sector, particularly regarding demand patterns and employment dynamics. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are another key risk factor. As India imports the majority of its crude oil, any disruption in global supply routes could lead to higher oil prices, putting pressure on inflation and the rupee. The report warned that prolonged geopolitical instability may also affect sectors such as aviation, chemicals, paints and oil marketing companies, while increasing the risk of foreign investor outflows. Meanwhile, the bond market has also witnessed fluctuations due to foreign capital movements and global developments, which have influenced currency movements and government bond yields. Despite near-term challenges, analysts believe that improving domestic fundamentals and stable inflation could help support market stability in the medium term, although global developments will continue to shape investor sentiment.

The initiative has been launched by Gujarat-based farmer-entrepreneur **Shailesh Jaria** to address rising concerns about food adulteration and excessive use of chemical pesticides. ![Indian MMA Fighter Sangram Singh Launches ‘Gir Veggies’ Organic Initiative in Mumbai](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/avso14l2d2.jpg) Speaking at the launch event, Shailesh Jaria highlighted the growing health risks associated with contaminated food, including diseases such as cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart ailments. He said the fear of unknowingly consuming harmful chemicals through everyday fruits and vegetables inspired him to revive traditional organic farming practices. Under the **Gir Veggies** brand, organic cultivation is carried out at **“Shaileshbhai Ni Wadi”** farm located in **Amrapur Gir village in Junagadh district, Gujarat**. The farm produces more than **30 varieties of fruits and over 50 varieties of vegetables**, including mangoes, guavas, bananas, papayas, pomegranates, and jamun. In addition, grains such as wheat, millet, maize, chickpeas, and pigeon pea (tur dal) are also grown using natural farming techniques. The initiative aims to create a **direct farm-to-consumer model**, ensuring that fresh and chemical-free produce reaches households without unnecessary intermediaries. Appreciating the concept, Sangram Singh said that modern urban lifestyles have distanced people from natural and pure food sources. He recalled how, during childhood, people often plucked fruits directly from trees and enjoyed naturally grown produce, an experience that is becoming rare in cities. “When Shailesh Jaria shared his vision of delivering fresh fruits and vegetables directly from farms to people’s homes, I found the idea extremely positive,” Singh said. He added that he personally tasted the fruits grown at the farm and found them to be of exceptional quality. As part of its initial rollout, **Gir Veggies** will begin home delivery of organic fruits and vegetables **twice a week** in Mumbai’s **Kandivali, Borivali, Dahisar, and Malad** areas. The initiative aims to strengthen the connection between farmers and consumers while promoting healthier and sustainable food habits. Sangram Singh will also soon return to the sporting arena, as he is scheduled to compete in an **international MMA bout on April 5, 2026, in Argentina under the Samurai Fight League**, where he will face an opponent from France.

Gas stoves replaced smoky kerosene burners, reducing indoor air pollution and making cooking safer and more convenient. But recent disruptions in energy supply chains—driven by geopolitical tensions and global conflicts—have triggered an unexpected development: the possible return of kerosene as a household cooking fuel. Across the country, oil companies and government authorities are revisiting the possibility of distributing kerosene through emergency channels. For many households, particularly those in regions hardest hit by LPG shortages, this could mean a temporary return to a fuel that India largely phased out over the past decade. ## LPG Shortages and the Pressure on Households India has come a long way in transitioning from traditional fuels to cleaner energy. Government programs and infrastructure improvements enabled LPG to reach millions of urban and rural homes. Yet even a well-functioning energy system can falter when global crises disrupt supply chains. The ongoing geopolitical unrest in parts of the world has affected crude oil and gas flows, leading to localized shortages of LPG cylinders. Reports indicate that domestic LPG production has increased by **28%**, but demand continues to outstrip supply. For households relying on LPG for daily meals, the shortage has tangible consequences: fewer meals cooked, increased reliance on expensive alternatives, and a sudden push toward older fuels like kerosene. Formerly, kerosene was distributed through the **Public Distribution System (PDS)** to low-income households. It provided an affordable option for cooking and lighting but was eventually phased out because of pollution concerns and the expansion of LPG access. Today, authorities are considering whether this infrastructure can be temporarily revived to meet urgent needs. ## Kerosene: The Fuel of the Past Returns Kerosene has a long history in India. It was once the primary cooking and lighting fuel for households in rural and urban areas alike. Small stoves powered kitchens, and kerosene lamps lit homes after sunset. Yet its smoke and pollutants made it a less-than-ideal energy source, and public health initiatives over the years encouraged households to transition to LPG and electricity. Now, in the midst of LPG shortages, kerosene is emerging as a pragmatic, if imperfect, alternative. Government sources suggest that limited kerosene allocations could be made available in areas facing severe fuel constraints. Discussions are underway with former PDS kerosene dealers to assess whether the necessary supply chains and storage infrastructure can be reactivated quickly. While kerosene may solve short-term fuel shortages, it also comes with drawbacks. Burning kerosene releases pollutants that contribute to respiratory illnesses, especially among women and children who spend more time in cooking areas. Its reintroduction must therefore be carefully managed to minimize public health risks. ## The Human Impact: Kitchens, Households, and Small Businesses The LPG shortage doesn’t just affect urban households; it ripples across the broader food economy. Street vendors, dhabas, cloud kitchens, and small restaurants depend on reliable LPG supplies to cook large volumes of food efficiently. Disruptions force them to reduce operations, scale back menus, or, in some cases, shut down temporarily. For millions of workers in the food and hospitality sector, fewer cooking operations mean fewer work opportunities. Delivery agents, kitchen staff, and small suppliers feel the impact almost immediately. In a sense, the energy crisis has become a livelihoods crisis, affecting both households and micro-businesses that operate on slim margins. In rural areas, some families still rely on firewood, biomass, or crop residues as a backup fuel. While these options are available, they carry their own environmental and health consequences. The temporary return to kerosene, though not perfect, could provide a cleaner alternative to wood and biomass, while LPG supplies stabilize. ## Energy Security in a Globalized World The kerosene resurgence highlights a key reality of modern energy systems: global conflicts can have local consequences. Crude oil and gas markets are interconnected. Disruptions anywhere in the supply chain—from production to transportation—can affect availability, pricing, and access thousands of miles away. India’s energy planners face a delicate balancing act: ensuring households and small businesses have access to fuel while minimizing environmental and health risks. In addition to ramping up LPG production, authorities are exploring emergency alternatives like kerosene to bridge gaps during crises. Diversifying energy sources, investing in renewable energy, and strengthening domestic production remain essential long-term strategies. But when global events create immediate shortages, old fuels may regain relevance—even if only temporarily. ## Environmental and Health Considerations While kerosene offers a practical solution in times of shortage, it is not without risks. The smoke it produces contains fine particulate matter and harmful gases that contribute to respiratory problems, eye irritation, and indoor air pollution. Public health experts warn that a sudden resurgence of kerosene could disproportionately affect vulnerable populations, including women, children, and the elderly. Any reintroduction should therefore be paired with safety guidelines, education on ventilation, and monitoring to prevent negative health outcomes. Additionally, environmental sustainability remains a concern. Unlike LPG, which burns cleanly, kerosene emits greenhouse gases and contributes to local pollution. Policymakers must weigh short-term benefits against long-term environmental goals. ## Lessons Learned: Resilience Matters The possible return of kerosene demonstrates that energy systems, even modern ones, remain vulnerable to global shocks. Several lessons emerge from this situation: 1. **Diversified energy sources are essential:** Reliance on a single fuel creates risk during supply disruptions. 2. **Backup mechanisms protect households and small businesses:** Emergency reserves of kerosene or other fuels can prevent immediate crises. 3. **Health and environmental trade-offs must be considered:** Emergency measures should include safety guidelines and public awareness. 4. **Long-term planning matters:** Expanding renewable energy, strengthening domestic production, and improving distribution networks reduce vulnerability to global events. The current LPG shortages serve as a reminder that energy security is more than just production—it encompasses accessibility, affordability, resilience, and environmental sustainability. ## Looking Forward India’s progress in energy access over the past decades has been remarkable. Millions of households have shifted from smoky kerosene and firewood to cleaner, more convenient LPG and electricity. The current challenges, however, reveal that progress is not immune to global shocks. Kerosene may make a temporary comeback in the near term, providing a stopgap for households and small businesses. But authorities are clear: this is a short-term solution, not a permanent shift. As LPG production ramps up and supply chains stabilize, cleaner fuels will reclaim their place at the center of India’s kitchens. In a world of global uncertainty, the story of kerosene’s return is a reminder that even the fuels of the past can remain relevant. It is also a call to build energy systems that are resilient, sustainable, and capable of withstanding the pressures of a rapidly changing world. **Categories:** business --- ### [Retail Inflation Rises: What It Means for Consumers and the Economy](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/retail-inflation-rises-what-it-means-for-consumers-and-the-economy/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** admin **Content:** India’s retail inflation rose to 3.21% in February 2026 from 2.74% in January, driven by higher food and precious metal prices under a new 2024 base year CPI series. While remaining within the RBI’s 2%–6% target range, the increase reduces consumer purchasing power, with rural inflation at 3.37% and urban at 3.02% ![](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/pexels-karola-g-5650048-scaled.jpg) ## What Rising Inflation Means for Consumers While a 3.21% inflation rate is moderate by historical standards, even small price increases can significantly affect household budgets, particularly for low- and middle-income consumers. The following factors illustrate the impact: ### Reduced Purchasing Power As prices rise, the **real income** of households declines. Families find that the same amount of money now buys fewer goods and services, forcing some to adjust consumption habits. Essential purchases, particularly food and household items, take up a larger share of monthly spending. ### Higher Cost of Living Inflation drives up the cost of living, impacting both urban and rural households. Food inflation, at **3.47%**, remains the most visible factor affecting everyday expenses. Higher prices for staples such as vegetables, pulses, and grains mean that families must either spend more or reduce consumption of other non-essential goods. ### Impact on Savings and Investments Elevated prices reduce the ability to save and invest, especially for households with fixed incomes. Lower discretionary spending can also limit opportunities for long-term wealth accumulation, including retirement planning, education funding, or investment in financial assets. ### Itemized Price Surges Some categories have experienced particularly sharp price movements, affecting household budgets in distinct ways: - **Silver jewellery:** +160.84% - **Gold:** +48.16% - **Tomato:** +45.29% - **Cauliflower:** +43.77% - **Garlic:** -31.09% (deflation) - **Onion:** -28.20% (deflation) These fluctuations highlight the variability of price changes across essential and non-essential commodities, reflecting both domestic production challenges and global market trends. ## Implications for the Indian Economy Beyond individual consumers, rising inflation has broad implications for India’s overall economic landscape, influencing monetary policy, growth prospects, and international trade. ### Monetary Policy Considerations Persistent price increases may influence the **RBI’s monetary policy decisions**, particularly regarding interest rates. While the current inflation level is within the target band, food inflation remains a key concern. Elevated prices for staples could necessitate **rate adjustments or targeted interventions** to maintain price stability while supporting economic growth. ### Pressure on Economic Growth Moderate inflation can erode consumer confidence and spending power. If price pressures continue, **household consumption—India’s largest economic driver—may slow**, potentially affecting industrial output, retail sales, and overall GDP growth. Businesses may also experience increased input costs, particularly in food processing, hospitality, and retail sectors. ### External Factors and Imported Inflation India’s economy is **sensitive to global price shocks**, particularly in energy markets. Ongoing tensions in the Middle East and other regions could disrupt oil supply, driving up fuel and electricity costs domestically. Higher imported costs for energy and raw materials can contribute to inflationary pressures, further straining household budgets and business operations. ### Benefits of the New 2024 CPI Base Year The shift to the **2024 base year** helps policymakers and analysts obtain a more accurate view of inflation trends: - Reflects current household consumption patterns and expenditure habits. - Provides better alignment with modern economic realities, such as urbanization and lifestyle changes. - Offers a stable benchmark for comparing inflation trends over time. By improving measurement accuracy, the new CPI base year enables **better-targeted policy interventions** and more effective monitoring of the cost of living. ## Sectoral Inflation Trends A closer look at the **sectoral components** of inflation reveals the factors driving the February 2026 increase: ### Food and Beverages Food inflation remains the largest contributor to overall CPI growth. Price increases in **vegetables, fruits, and cereals** have directly affected household budgets. Seasonal factors, supply chain disruptions, and climate events contribute to volatility in these categories. ### Precious Metals and Luxury Goods The cost of gold and silver jewellery surged due to rising global commodity prices and increased domestic demand. These increases primarily affect discretionary spending in urban households and have broader implications for household savings and investment behavior. ### Urban vs. Rural Inflation While **urban inflation** remains slightly lower at 3.02%, rural areas face higher pressures at 3.37%. This divergence reflects differences in consumption patterns, supply chain access, and dependency on agricultural outputs. Rural households, heavily reliant on food and fuel, are more exposed to sudden commodity price changes. ### Deflationary Trends Certain commodities, such as garlic and onions, experienced deflation due to favorable harvests or inventory management practices. These decreases offer partial relief but are offset by rising prices in other essential items. ## Strategies for Consumers During Moderate Inflation Households can adopt various strategies to mitigate the impact of rising prices: 1. **Budget Adjustments:** Monitor spending on high-inflation items and prioritize essential purchases. 2. **Diversify Consumption:** Substitute expensive items with more affordable alternatives where possible. 3. **Smart Shopping Practices:** Take advantage of bulk buying, discounts, and seasonal availability to reduce costs. 4. **Financial Planning:** Maintain an emergency fund and adjust savings strategies to account for rising living costs. Policymakers and businesses also play a critical role by ensuring **efficient distribution networks, fair pricing mechanisms, and price monitoring systems** to stabilize markets. ## Global Comparisons and Outlook India’s inflation, while moderate, mirrors trends seen in other emerging economies. Global commodity price fluctuations, supply chain disruptions, and geopolitical tensions all have direct and indirect effects on domestic price stability. The **International Monetary Fund (IMF)** and other financial institutions stress the importance of **inflation-targeted policies**, emphasizing that moderate, predictable inflation supports economic growth while protecting household purchasing power. Looking ahead, the **RBI’s focus on inflation control** will involve balancing the need for stable prices with continued support for economic growth. Persistent food inflation and imported energy costs remain key areas of concern. ## Conclusion India’s retail inflation rise to **3.21% in February 2026** reflects a combination of domestic supply factors, global commodity trends, and updated measurement methodologies under the 2024 CPI base year. While within the RBI’s target range, the increase impacts **consumer purchasing power, household budgets, and overall economic growth**. Key takeaways include: - **Moderate but meaningful increase** in retail inflation, driven by food and precious metals. - **Regional disparities**, with rural inflation higher than urban. - **Significant price movements** in key commodities, including vegetables and precious metals. - **Monetary policy implications**, with the RBI likely monitoring food inflation closely. - **Household impact**, including reduced savings, higher cost of living, and adjustments in consumption patterns. By adopting effective policy measures, improving supply chain efficiency, and empowering consumers with information, India can manage inflationary pressures while maintaining growth and stability. The new 2024 CPI base year enhances the accuracy of inflation measurement, providing a clearer picture of the real economic environment and enabling better decision-making by both policymakers and households. **Categories:** business --- ### [Why Healthcare Entrepreneurship and Management Will Shape India’s Next Innovation Wave](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/why-healthcare-entrepreneurship-and-management-will-shape-indias-next-innovation-wave/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **By- Professor Arnab Chanda, Associate Professor, IIT Delhi** India’s healthcare sector is at a pivotal moment. Advances in digital health, AI-enabled diagnostics, telemedicine and patient-centric care are transforming how services are delivered and consumed. Yet innovation alone will not drive systemic change. Persistent challenges such as fragmented care systems, regulatory complexity, affordability gaps and limited scale pathways demand new skills in management and entrepreneurship to convert innovation into sustainable impact. The scale of opportunity within India’s healthcare ecosystem highlights this need clearly. The overall healthcare market in India is estimated to be around $400 billion, while digital health continues to see accelerated growth. The country is now home to over 11,000 healthcare startups spanning diagnostics, medtech, AI, telehealth and digital platforms. This expanding startup ecosystem reflects strong entrepreneurial momentum, but it also underscores the importance of execution capability. Investment trends further reinforce this shift. Between FY 2019 and FY 2025, India’s healthcare sector attracted more than 1,500 investment transactions amounting to over $21 billion. While funding flows signal confidence in innovation, long-term success depends on the ability to navigate regulation, build sustainable business models and scale responsibly across complex healthcare systems. The MedTech segment offers a strong example of this opportunity. India’s MedTech industry was valued at approximately $12 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $50 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual rate of over 20 per cent. A significant share of this growth is being driven by digitally enabled medical technologies. Similarly, the healthtech market has grown rapidly in recent years and is expected to expand into a multi-billion-dollar segment over the next decade. This pace of growth highlights a critical gap. Many healthcare innovations struggle to move beyond pilot stages, not due to lack of ideas, but due to gaps in management capability. Healthcare entrepreneurship requires leaders who understand clinical realities, regulatory pathways, quality standards and stakeholder alignment. Design thinking, prototyping and user-centric testing are essential, but they must be supported by strong operational and strategic decision-making. Recognising this need, structured executive learning in healthcare-focused entrepreneurship and management has gained importance. The Executive Programme in Healthcare Entrepreneurship and Management, a five-month programme offered through the Continuing Education Programme (CEP), IIT Delhi is designed to enable working professionals to build capabilities at the intersection of healthcare innovation, management and entrepreneurial execution. CEP is the statutory body of IIT Delhi for conducting certificate programmes and issuing certificates. Business fundamentals play a decisive role in determining whether healthcare ventures succeed or stall. Pricing strategy, distribution models, partnerships, funding approaches and scalability planning are central to building viable healthcare enterprises. In an outcome-driven ecosystem, the ability to align business objectives with patient outcomes and system-level impact is becoming a competitive advantage. Healthcare entrepreneurship is also inherently collaborative. Effective solutions often emerge when clinicians, engineers, technologists and managers work together across disciplines. Leaders in this space must be equipped to manage complexity, foster collaboration and drive execution within regulated and resource-constrained environments. As India works towards building a resilient, inclusive and innovation-led healthcare system, healthcare entrepreneurship and management will shape the next wave of progress. The future will belong to leaders who combine vision with execution, innovation with responsibility and ambition with discipline, translating healthcare potential into scalable and meaningful impact.

It provides one of the most comprehensive assessments of the state of globalization worldwide. According to the report, global connectedness has remained stable since **2022**, with globalization levels reaching **25% in 2025**, matching the highest level ever recorded on the report’s scale measuring cross-border flows. **John Pearson**, CEO of **DHL Express**, emphasized the resilience of global integration despite political tensions. He noted that the continued strength of globalization highlights the importance of global cooperation in addressing major challenges such as poverty and climate change. **Trade Growth Supported by AI and Pre-Tariff Imports** The report highlights that global trade growth in **2025** was the fastest since **2017**, excluding the volatile pandemic period. Increased trade activity was partly driven by companies accelerating imports before the introduction of higher U.S. tariffs. Demand for **AI-related infrastructure and technology** also played a major role in boosting global trade. According to **World Trade Organization (WTO)** data, **AI-related products accounted for 42% of the growth in goods trade during the first three quarters of 2025**. While higher tariffs in the United States could slow trade growth slightly in **2026**, global goods trade is still expected to expand at an average rate of **2.6% annually through 2029**, broadly in line with growth seen over the past decade. **Limited Impact of U.S.–China Trade Tensions** The report finds that trade between the **United States and China** has continued to decline, falling from **3.6% of global trade in 2015** to **2.7% in 2024**, and further down to **2.0% during the first three quarters of 2025**. However, these flows represent only a small portion of total global trade, meaning their decline has had limited impact on overall globalization levels. At the same time, countries and companies are diversifying supply chains and trade partnerships, with nations such as **India and Vietnam** emerging as key beneficiaries. **Record Movement of Goods and People** The report also highlights several major trends in other global flows: - **Capital:** Foreign investment remains resilient, with multinational companies continuing to generate large portions of their sales internationally. While greenfield foreign direct investment announcements declined in 2025, overall FDI flows increased and cross-border mergers and acquisitions remained strong. - **Information:** Growth in cross-border data and information flows has slowed since 2021 due to geopolitical tensions and increasing restrictions on data transfers. - **People:** International travel, migration, and student mobility have rebounded strongly after the COVID-19 pandemic and are now reaching **record levels**. **Singapore Tops Globalization Rankings** In the report’s country rankings, **Singapore** remains the world’s most globalized country, followed by **Luxembourg** and **the Netherlands**. Regionally, **Europe** ranks as the most globally connected region, followed by **North America** and **the Middle East and North Africa**. The **United Kingdom** stands out for having the most geographically diversified international flows, while the **United Arab Emirates** has recorded the largest growth in globalization since 2001. **Globalization Still Far From Its Full Potential** Despite strong global connections, the report notes that the current **25% globalization level** shows that the world still has significant room to expand cross-border exchanges if policy restrictions are reduced. **Professor Steven A. Altman**, Director of the **DHL Initiative on Globalization at NYU Stern’s Center for the Future of Management**, noted that while political debates around globalization may appear volatile, actual global flows have proven to be remarkably resilient. > “Globalization faces real risks, but the resilience of international flows is equally real,” **Altman** said, emphasizing the importance of accurately understanding global economic connections when shaping future policy decisions.

Professor Cunningham highlights the unique deal between director **Ryan Coogler** and **Warner Bros.**, which allows Coogler to regain ownership of the film’s rights after 25 years—an arrangement rarely granted by major studios. According to Cunningham, this agreement represents a notable shift in creative control and challenges long-standing studio practices. Cunningham can offer insights into what he calls the **“Anti-Netflix Model,”** explaining how *“Sinners”* prioritizes a focused theatrical experience rather than the “ambient viewing” commonly associated with streaming platforms. He can also discuss the film’s significance for **Black cinema**, noting that traditional studios may have underestimated the mainstream appeal of films led by Black casts. The success of *“Sinners,”* he suggests, could influence how studios approach future theatrical releases featuring diverse talent. In addition, Cunningham points to the evolving relationship between streaming services and the traditional studio system. He argues that the dominance of streaming platforms has, in some ways, recreated the powerful studio monopolies of the 1940s—while *“Sinners”* presents a new model that may challenge this dynamic. With the film gaining strong awards momentum, Cunningham believes its business approach could influence how future **Academy Award** contenders are produced, financed, and distributed.

New Cleveland Clinic Study Reveals Real World Insights](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/what-happens-when-patients-stop-taking-glp-1-drugs-new-cleveland-clinic-study-reveals-real-world-insights/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Cleveland, Mar 13**: As the use of injectable GLP-1 drugs continues to rise, questions persist about what happens after patients stop taking them in real-world settings. A new Cleveland Clinic analysis of nearly 8,000 patients suggests that discontinuing semaglutide and tirzepatide, on average, does not lead to significant weight regain in clinical practice, as many patients later restart the original medication or try an alternative obesity treatment. In one of the largest real-world studies to date examining obesity treatment use and long-term weight changes after GLP-1 discontinuation, researchers at Cleveland Clinic found that many patients successfully stabilized their weight after one year through alternative treatments and therapeutic lifestyle interventions. The findings, published in the journal *Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism*, provide real-world context to previous randomized clinical trials indicating that patients who stopped semaglutide (sold under the brand names Ozempic/Wegovy) and tirzepatide (sold under the brand names Mounjaro/Zepbound) regained more than half of the weight they lost within 12 months. Hamlet Gasoyan, DS, Ph.D., MPH, a researcher with Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Value-Based Care Research, led the study. > “Our real-world data show that many patients who stop semaglutide or tirzepatide restart the medication or transition to another obesity treatment, which may explain why they regain less weight than patients in randomized trials,” Dr. Gasoyan said. This retrospective cohort study included 7,938 adult patients with obesity or overweight in Ohio and Florida. All patients initiated injectable semaglutide or tirzepatide for obesity or type 2 diabetes and stopped the medication within three to 12 months. Dr. Gasoyan and his research team analyzed what treatments patients pursued next and how their weight changed over time. While patients in the study achieved meaningful weight loss, individual results varied: - Those treated for obesity lost an average of 8.4% of body weight before discontinuation, and regained an average of 0.5% one year later. - Those treated for type 2 diabetes lost an average of 4.4% of body weight before discontinuation, and lost an additional 1.3% of body weight one year later. - In the obesity group, 55% gained weight in the year after discontinuation, while 45% kept losing or stayed the same. - In the diabetes group, 44% gained weight, while 56% kept losing or stayed the same. The research group earlier documented two primary drivers that contributed to patients stopping their medication: cost or insurance coverage limitations and side effects, with the former being the dominant reason. Individuals taking the drugs for diabetes were more likely to restart the medication compared with those using them for obesity, a difference associated with more consistent insurance coverage for diabetes-related prescriptions. Overall, many patients in both groups explored other weight-management treatment options within 12 months of stopping their initial GLP-1 injectable: - 27% switched to a different medication (including older-generation obesity medications or switching between semaglutide and tirzepatide) - 20% restarted their original medication - 14% continued their obesity treatment via lifestyle modification visits with healthcare professionals such as dietitians or exercise specialists. - Less than 1% transitioned to undergoing metabolic and bariatric surgery. Researchers say the findings underscore the importance of personalized, ongoing support for patients seeking obesity treatment – even when they stop medication. > “Many patients do not give up on their obesity treatment journey, even if they need to stop their initial medication,” said **Dr. Gasoyan**. “In our future work, we will examine the comparative effectiveness of alternative treatment options for obesity in patients who discontinue semaglutide or tirzepatide, to help patients and their clinicians make informed decisions.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Yale Expert Highlights New Advances in Pediatric Kidney Care During National Kidney Month](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/yale-expert-highlights-new-advances-in-pediatric-kidney-care-during-national-kidney-month/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Haven, Connecticut** – As **National Kidney Month** raises awareness about kidney health, **Dr. Julie Goodwin**, pediatric nephrologist and Associate Professor at **Yale School of Medicine**, is highlighting promising new research aimed at improving care for children with kidney disease. Dr. Goodwin and her research team are currently studying newly identified blood and urine biomarkers that may help doctors predict earlier which children with **chronic kidney disease (CKD)** are at higher risk of progressing to **acute kidney injury (AKI)**. Early detection is critical in pediatric kidney care, as it could allow physicians to intervene sooner and improve long-term health outcomes for young patients. > “This work is part of a broader effort to bring precision medicine approaches to pediatric kidney disease, which has historically been understudied compared with adult kidney disease,” said **Dr. Goodwin.** She added that several large biomarker and multi-omics studies are currently underway, moving the field closer to identifying tools that could help personalize treatment and better predict disease progression in children. Researchers believe that advances in biomarker discovery and precision medicine could significantly transform how pediatric kidney conditions are diagnosed and managed in the future, offering more targeted care and improved outcomes for young patients.

A team of geoscientists from the **University of Utah** has identified a complex underground system that includes a largely freshwater aquifer hidden beneath the playa. Since 1989, the lake has lost nearly 70% of its surface area, exposing about 800 square miles of mudflats and playa. While the lake’s decline poses serious environmental concerns, it has also created new opportunities for scientific research into the geology and hydrology beneath the lakebed. The research team, led by geophysicist **Mike Thorne**, used advanced geophysical techniques including **electrical resistivity tomography (ERT)** to map underground structures along the southern and eastern edges of the lake. The technology works by sending electrical currents through the ground to measure resistance levels, allowing scientists to identify different underground materials and determine groundwater salinity. The findings revealed a highly complex subsurface environment. In some areas, thick layers of salty groundwater lie just below the surface, while other locations contain freshwater only a few meters underground. Near the historic Saltair area, researchers also identified a mineral layer of **mirabilite**—a sodium sulfate deposit—that traps briny groundwater beneath it. In contrast, areas closer to **Lee’s Creek Natural Area** and **Farmington Bay** show signs of shallow freshwater sources likely fed by mountain runoff from the nearby **Wasatch Mountains** or possibly remnants of ancient **Lake Bonneville**, which covered the region roughly 14,000 years ago. The research is part of a larger hydrology project funded by the **Utah Department of Natural Resources**, aimed at understanding how groundwater systems interact with the shrinking lake. Scientists hope to determine how much freshwater exists beneath the playa and whether it could be used without damaging the fragile ecosystem. “These discoveries show that the underground landscape beneath the Great Salt Lake is far more complex than previously thought,” said Thorne, associate professor in the University of Utah’s Department of Geology & Geophysics. “What appears to be a flat and uniform surface actually hides significant variability below.” The study also contributes to broader scientific understanding of **terminal lakes**—bodies of water with no outlet where salts accumulate over time. Such lakes are found across the **Great Basin** and around the world, but many are rapidly shrinking due to water diversions and climate change. Researchers believe the findings could help guide future environmental management strategies for the Great Salt Lake while also advancing global knowledge about groundwater systems beneath terminal lakes. Further studies are underway to better understand how freshwater and saltwater interact beneath the lakebed, including rare natural processes where dense saltwater sinks through lighter freshwater layers. The research findings were recently published in the journal **Geosciences**, with University of Utah graduate student **Mason Jacketta** serving as lead author.

The findings come from the first individual patient data meta-analysis addressing this question, analyzing more than 6,000 patients across six randomized phase III trials. The study, conducted through the MARCAP Consortium (Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials in Cancer of the Prostate), represents the most comprehensive evaluation to date of whether hormone therapy should routinely accompany radiation after prostate surgery. The study was led by co-principal investigators, Daniel E. Spratt, MD, of University Hospitals Seidman Cancer Center, and Amar U. Kishan, MD, of UCLA Health. **Addressing a Long-Standing Clinical Question** Hormone therapy has been proven to improve survival when combined with radiation in men treated for intact prostate cancer. However, whether the same benefit applies when radiation is delivered after prostatectomy a common treatment for recurrent disease has remained uncertain for decades. Previous randomized trials yielded mixed conclusions. Some suggested benefit, others did not. To answer this question definitively, investigators pooled individual data from 6,057 patients with nearly a decade of follow-up. **Key Findings** Across all patients, the study found that adding hormone therapy to postoperative radiotherapy did not significantly improve overall survival. Ten-year overall survival was nearly identical: 83.6% with radiation alone 84.3% with radiation plus hormone therapy Importantly, outcomes varied based on prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels at the time radiation was delivered: Men treated early (PSA ≤0.5 ng/mL) showed no meaningful survival benefit from adding hormone therapy. Potential survival benefit emerged primarily in men treated later, particularly when PSA exceeded approximately 1.6–2.0 ng/mL. Differences between short-term and long-term hormone therapy were smaller than expected. While hormone therapy improved metastasis-free survival, the magnitude of benefit was modest and unlikely to translate into meaningful overall survival gains for most patients treated early. **Implications for Patients and Clinicians** Hormone therapy can carry significant side effects, including fatigue, metabolic changes, cardiovascular risks, and effects on sexual health. These findings suggest that many men treated early after surgery may safely avoid additional systemic therapy without compromising survival. > “This is the strongest level of evidence we’ve ever had addressing this question,” said **the senior author Dr. Spratt, Vincent K. Smith Chair of Radiation Oncology, UH Seidman Cancer Center, Associate Chief Scientific Officer, UH Cleveland Medical Center, and Professor of Radiation Oncology, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine.** “For men treated early at low PSA levels, the routine addition of hormone therapy does not meaningfully improve overall survival. That has major implications for quality of life and treatment personalization.” > > “Hormone therapy is not benign,” Dr. Spratt added. “If we can safely spare men unnecessary treatment while maintaining excellent cancer outcomes, that is a significant step forward in precision oncology.” **Moving Toward More Personalized Care** The study highlights the importance of tailoring therapy based on individual risk factors particularly PSA levels at the time of radiation. It also underscores an urgent need for predictive biomarkers that can identify which patients truly benefit from hormone therapy in the postoperative setting. Ongoing clinical trials are exploring genomic and molecular tools to refine treatment decisions further. > “The era of one-size-fits-all treatment is ending,” **Dr. Spratt** said. “Our goal is to deliver the right therapy, to the right patient, at the right time — and sometimes that means safely doing less.” [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [The Amethyst Room Hosts Exhibition of EKA Spring and Summer 2026 Collection in Chennai](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/the-amethyst-room-hosts-exhibition-of-eka-spring-and-summer-2026-collection-in-chennai/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Chennai, Mar 13:** The Amethyst Room presents an exclusive exhibition of **EKA’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection**, inspired by the vast sand dunes of Sam in the desert landscapes of Jaisalmer.

Satagopan, professor of biostatistics at the Rutgers School of Public Health,** “I am really nervous about biostatistics. Any advice?” and “I am not a math person – how do I survive this course?” are questions Jaya M. Satagopan, a professor of biostatistics at the Rutgers School of Public Health, hears every semester. Rather than waiting for that anxiety to surface during the term, Satagopan addresses it before classes even begin. “Fear of statistics is predictable and addressable,” said Satagopan, whose research focuses on statistical genetics and genomics in cancer. “If we want students to thrive as public health professionals, we have to prepare them emotionally as well as academically.” Biostatistics is foundational to public health practice, shaping evidence-based research, study design, data management, visualization and analysis. Yet the discipline’s reputation as intimidating can create psychological barriers that affect engagement, participation and persistence. To counter that effect, Satagopan hosts a pre-course “meet-and-greet” session several days before the semester begins. The session isn’t a lecture. Instead, it serves as an intentional onboarding experience designed to build confidence and psychological safety. During the session, she explains the course structure and real-world relevance of the material, outlines clear strategies for success – such as consistent engagement and collaborative study – and emphasizes that challenging material is part of the learning process, not a sign of failure. She also openly normalizes fear and invites students to share their concerns. “It’s important that students understand anxiety doesn’t mean they don’t belong,” she said. “It simply means they are stepping into something new.” She reinforces this approach with a pre-class online discussion board, where she introduces herself – including her interests outside statistics – and encourages students to do the same. The goal is to reduce hierarchy and foster approachability before formal instruction begins. Over ten semesters, Satagopan has observed measurable cultural shifts in her classroom: Students ask questions earlier and more confidently, participate more actively in discussions and problem-solving, and persist through difficult concepts. These behaviors mirror the competencies essential to the public health workforce, including data literacy, critical thinking, collaboration, communication and adaptability. “Allaying fear doesn’t lower standards,” Satagopan said. “It strengthens preparation.” The strategy’s implications extend beyond biostatistics. By recognizing that a course begins in students’ minds – shaped by past experiences and expectations – educators can intentionally design learning environments that build both competence and confidence. For Satagopan, the lesson is simple: Helping students move from fear to engagement isn’t just good pedagogy, but an investment in a stronger, more prepared public health workforce. “Confidence in statistics does not start with formula – it starts with community,” said **Satagopan**. “When students connect with each other and with the instructor early on, they are more willing to engage in new topics, take risks in attempting new problems, find joy in taking such risks and develop the analytic skills to thrive as professionals.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Robotic Kidney Transplants Transform Patient Outcomes](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/robotic-kidney-transplants-transform-patient-outcomes/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Robotic Kidney Transplants Transform Patient Outcomes](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/940z4e2j3h.jpg) ***By:- Dr. Shafiq Ahmed, Senior Director – Urology, Andrology & Renal Transplant, BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital*** Kidney failure affects millions in India, turning everyday lives upside down with dialysis dependence and endless fatigue. But a quiet revolution is underway in our operating rooms: robotic kidney transplants. This advanced technique is delivering better results, faster recoveries, and renewed hope for patients. **Traditional Challenges** Open kidney transplants have saved countless lives, but they come with hurdles. Surgeons make large incisions, about 15-20 cm long, leading to significant blood loss, intense post-operative pain, and higher infection risks. Hospital stays often stretch to a week or more, with patients battling slow wound healing and complications like hernias. Recovery can take months, delaying return to work or family duties. These issues burden patients, especially those with obesity or diabetes, common in our population. **Robotic Precision at Work** Robotic kidney transplant flips the script using a da Vinci system. The surgeon controls tiny instruments and a high-definition 3D camera through small ports, just 1 cm each, via a console. This magnification—up to 10 times normal vision—enables pinpoint accuracy in connecting the donor kidney’s blood vessels and ureter. Though surgery time is longer, around 4 hours, blood loss drops dramatically to under 100 ml. The new kidney starts working almost immediately in most cases, with minimal tissue trauma. **Everyday Impact** Imagine a young mother from Delhi, exhausted by dialysis, heading home sooner with significantly less wound pain and vastly improved physical comfort. Or picture a working professional able to resume light duties weeks earlier because the surgical trauma was so minimal. We’ve seen this at our centre: faster relief from post-operative pain means a smoother transition back to an empowered life. Even complex cases, from living or deceased donors, benefit from robotics’ gentle touch, reducing rejection triggers like inflammation. **A Brighter Future** Robotic kidney transplant isn’t just surgery—it’s transformation. As technology spreads, it promises equitable access, shorter waits, and optimal outcomes for all. If you or a loved one faces kidney issues, explore this option. Health restored is life reclaimed—our team stands ready.

The report, **“The Trust Architecture of Industrial AI: Context and Prediction Accuracy,”** is the first installment of a three-part research series examining how industrial organizations transition from AI-generated insights to reliable, outcome-driven operations. The study highlights that while predictive maintenance technologies are widely used, many organizations struggle to convert AI insights into actionable maintenance decisions due to fragmented operational data and limited context on plant-floor conditions. Drawing on insights from senior industrial leaders across equipment-intensive sectors such as metals, mining, energy, chemicals, and process manufacturing, the research explores how organizations establish operational context, build trust in predictive systems, and translate AI insights into measurable performance improvements. **The Challenge of Operationalizing AI Insights** As industrial companies increasingly deploy predictive analytics and AI-driven monitoring systems, the challenge has shifted from identifying machine anomalies to operationalizing these insights in real-time plant environments. While AI tools are capable of detecting potential equipment failures, organizations often face difficulties translating alerts into coordinated maintenance actions. According to the study, the maturity of industrial AI adoption remains uneven: - **35%** of organizations operate predictive analytics systems that generate alerts and insights - **29%** report integrated systems that connect insights with operational execution and outcome tracking - Only **9%** have fully prescriptive maintenance workflows embedded into their operations These findings highlight the gap between pilot deployments and scalable, outcome-driven AI implementation. **Key Structural Barriers** The research identifies several systemic challenges limiting the effectiveness of industrial AI in manufacturing environments: - **62%** of organizations operate with fragmented operational data across multiple systems - **71%** report insufficient visibility into process constraints such as safety limits and throughput commitments - **59%** lack structured maintenance histories due to paper-based logs or undocumented technician knowledge - **53%** have limited visibility into throughput interdependencies across production lines Beyond data challenges, the study also reveals growing concerns around trust in AI-generated recommendations. Nearly **44%** of respondents remain neutral regarding the accuracy and reliability of AI insights, indicating that many practitioners are waiting for consistent validation within their operational environments. Even when predictions are technically accurate, execution often breaks down at the final stage where digital insights must translate into physical maintenance actions. The study reports that **81%** of maintenance professionals consider current systems only moderately effective at converting AI insights into plant-floor decisions. **Bridging the Contextual Gap** > “Industrial AI has reached an important inflection point,” said **Karthikeyan Natarajan, CEO of Infinite Uptime**. “Many organizations today can detect anomalies in machines, but detection alone does not deliver reliability. Real impact occurs when AI systems understand the operational context of the plant and translate insights into clear actions in equipment maintenance and process optimization. Bridging this contextual gap is essential for industrial AI to move from experimentation toward semi-autonomous plant operations.” To address these challenges, the research introduces a framework called the **“Trust Loop,”** which integrates machine data, predictive insights, operational execution, and outcome validation. Organizations that adopt this structured approach can move beyond experimental AI deployments and scale reliability programs that deliver measurable business outcomes. **A Three-Part Research Series** The report is the first in a **three-part research series** exploring the future of industrial AI: 1. **Context and Prediction Accuracy** – examining how operational context determines the effectiveness of AI predictions 2. **Prescription and Execution Discipline** – exploring how organizations convert insights into coordinated operational action 3. **Validated Outcomes and Financial Impact** – analyzing how AI performance translates into financial decision-making and capital allocation Together, the series aims to help industrial leaders understand how AI can evolve from predictive tools into fully integrated systems that support semi-autonomous manufacturing operations.

An India-first program, the series celebrates homegrown music while reflecting how the country is choosing to live with sound. As homes across India become more design-led and lifestyle-driven, sound is emerging as an intentional layer of modern living – expressive, immersive and integrated into the architecture of everyday life. Sonos Sound Suites builds on this shift, creating space for intimate listening, shared experience and deeper connection. Hosted at **The Conservatory on 12 March 2026**, the Bengaluru chapter brought together live performances by **artists Sakré and Sahana Naresh**, alongside Listening Room sessions curated by renowned **music archivist Nishant Mittal**. The evening blended Carnatic melodies with retro-futurist textures and ambient city soundscapes – reflecting the layered musical identity that defines Bengaluru. With its expanding premium housing market and vibrant independent music culture, Bengaluru plays a key role in Sonos’ plans to scale its presence across India. Ranked among the world’s top five cities for prime residential growth, it reflects a broader shift in high-end home design – where sound is considered as carefully as space and form. > “In cities like Bengaluru, where design-forward living is evolving rapidly, sound throughout the home is becoming an integral part of its architecture. The Sonos system enables sound to flow effortlessly across spaces and moments – from movie nights and gatherings to relaxation – adapting to the way people live. With adoption already strong in India, Bengaluru represents a natural next step in extending Sonos to more homes where beautiful design, great sound and seamless entertainment are part of everyday living,” said Rennie Addabbo, General Manager, APAC at Sonos. Rahul Dutta, India Country Manager at Sonos added: > “Bengaluru’s vibrant community of musicians, designers and tastemakers reflects a city that values thoughtfully curated living. It was a fitting setting for the next edition of Sonos Sound Suites – an intimate listening experience designed to spotlight the city’s distinctive and evolving music culture, where tradition, design and audio innovation intersect.” At the heart of Sonos’ approach is collaboration with the creators themselves – working with leading producers and engineers across music and film globally to fine-tune the home listening experience. **Reflecting that spirit in Bengaluru, local artist and producer Sakré said,** > “There is a difference between hearing music and truly listening. When traditional instrumentation meets modern textures, layers can easily get lost. Shared listening experiences like Sonos Sound Suites create moments of presence, while the Sonos system maintains the clarity and depth that preserve the integrity of the music.” Introduced in 2025 as an India-first program, Sonos Sound Suites celebrates the country’s evolving sonic identity – where tradition and contemporary expression meet through intentional listening. More than a showcase, it embodies a way of living where sound is valued as deeply as design within Indian homes.

The program helped give him the leadership skills he would need to run his own tech company. Deepak Arora didn’t set out to start a company. When he arrived in the U.S. in 2015, he’d already spent two decades forging a successful career in IT and health care technology in India and Canada. As a senior manager at IBM Watson Health, Arora directed global teams, oversaw projects involving artificial intelligence-integrated products, and had the kind of upward trajectory that made executive leadership seem inevitable. **But then everything changed.** > In 2020, Arora and his family experienced a devastating loss: the death of his young daughter, Mahi, who drowned near their home in Hartland, Wisconsin. “We were five minutes too late,” he said. “And the thought just wouldn’t go away: How could we have prevented it?” The thought became an obsession, and a couple of years later, Arora founded a tech company devoted to answering that question. The executive-turned-entrepreneur’s vision was simple: to develop a wearable, predictive safety device that uses AI to alert caregivers about potential accidents before they happen. **Learning to lead at Lubar** In 2021, Arora enrolled at UWM’s Lubar College of Business, drawn to the program’s new Executive MBA concentration in Integrated Health Care Leadership. He was still working at IBM but wanted to better understand finance, marketing and strategy. For Arora, the curriculum instilled leadership skills that made him feel he could run a company. In 2022, leveraging his health care background and expertise in AI and software development, he launched Wearable Technologies. Through UWM’s Milwaukee I-Corps program, Arora conducted market research that led to a crucial insight: the biggest opportunity wasn’t in the children’s market, due to parental concerns and other challenges, but with seniors, a growing segment of the population. That discovery prompted a strategic pivot to focus on older adults, for whom the leading cause of injury-related deaths is falls and wandering. > “I wouldn’t have been able to pivot if I hadn’t gone to Lubar,” he said. “At first, it was hard for me personally, but it made sense. The market we’re tapping into has a real need we can solve.” **Engineering a safer future** In 2025, Wearable Technologies was granted its first patent for an all-in-one safety management solution, Wear-Tech Companion, a smart device powered by AI that scans the environment for potential hazards. The Wear-Tech Companion can learn a person’s daily patterns, detect anomalies and send alerts to caregivers in real time — whether for a fall, a medical concern or someone with dementia wandering. “Our user is obviously the person wearing it, but the real user is whoever is monitoring and making sense of the data,” Arora said. Unlike other wearables, the device has no screen, no need for cloud connectivity, and no reliance on apps. The data processing and decision-making happen inside the device itself — an important innovation that makes it both faster, secure and more reliable. According to Arora, the Wear-Tech Companion can respond to critical events five times faster than competing products. And that difference means everything. Since its founding, Wearable Technologies has gained national acclaim. In 2024, the company received first prize in a pitch competition in Las Vegas, along with the People’s Choice Award. Among other accolades, it was named a Top-10 AI company of the year by CIO Tech World twice in a row, and last year it was also recognized as one of the Top Trailblazing Startups by USA Today. While the attention is nice, Arora cares about outcomes the lives his technology can save, the families it can protect from tragedy. In 2025, Wearable Technologies partnered with Froedtert South to deploy devices for remote patient monitoring, allowing health care providers to prioritize high-risk patients and reduce hospital visits. “If people think of Mahi when they think of safety, that’s the legacy I want to leave,” Arora said. > “The next 10-20 years, there will be a huge push in the care economy — child care, elder care, mental and health care. Wear-Tech is positioned to help fulfill those needs.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Hyatt Centric Juhu Names Bhaulal Salunke as HR Manager](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/hyatt-centric-juhu-names-bhaulal-salunke-as-hr-manager/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** Hyatt Centric Juhu has announced the appointment of Bhaulal Salunke as its new Human Resources Manager.

The report reveals that women now account for nearly 17% of borrowers in India’s personal loan market, reflecting a steady rise in female participation in formal credit and signalling a gradual shift toward greater financial independence. According to the findings, women borrowers crossed 16.32% of the total borrower base in 2026, marking a notable increase in their participation within the personal lending ecosystem. While women continue to represent a smaller share compared to male borrowers, the report highlights a clear upward trend as more working professionals actively leverage formal credit to manage financial responsibilities, support lifestyle aspirations, and pursue long-term financial goals. The report further reveals that women in the 30–35 age group have emerged as the most active borrowers, accounting for more than half of female loan applicants. This trend indicates that mid-career professionals are increasingly using personal loans as financial tools during a phase marked by career progression, lifestyle upgrades, and long-term planning. The growing financial confidence among women in this age group reflects the expanding presence of women in the workforce and greater awareness of structured financial solutions. Regional trends also show that borrowing among women remains strongly concentrated in India’s urban economic centres. Cities such as Delhi NCR, Hyderabad, and Chennai have emerged as key hubs for women borrowers, reflecting strong professional employment bases and higher adoption of digital lending platforms. At the state level, Maharashtra and Karnataka together account for more than 53% of total loan disbursements, highlighting the strong financial inclusion momentum in Western and Southern India, where fintech adoption and economic activity continue to expand. Income trends reveal that the majority of women borrowers fall within the INR 30,000 – INR 50,000 monthly salary bracket, which accounts for 39.63% of the segment, making it the largest borrower category. This suggests that middle-income salaried professionals form the backbone of women’s participation in India’s personal lending market, reflecting rising financial awareness and increasing comfort with digital lending platforms. The report also highlights a steady rise in credit adoption among women, with loan disbursements to female borrowers growing at an annual rate of 5–6%. This consistent growth signals increasing trust in formal lending channels and improved access to credit solutions tailored for salaried professionals. **Commenting on the findings, Shakti Shekhawat, Business Head, BharatLoan, said,** > “The steady rise in women borrowers reflects a meaningful shift in India’s financial landscape, where more women are actively participating in financial decision-making and using credit as a tool to support their aspirations and long-term goals. While participation has grown steadily over the years, there is still immense potential to expand financial inclusion by making credit more accessible and transparent for working women across the country.” With digital lending platforms simplifying access to credit and financial awareness continuing to improve, the report suggests that women borrowers are likely to play an increasingly significant role in India’s evolving lending ecosystem in the years ahead.

It is a moment for them to think about how they can work with the country’s goals. The money they get is not just a little more or less than before. The Education Budget 2026 shows that India wants universities to focus on some things. These things are helping more people get an education, making sure students can get a job using technology to teach and doing research. ![How India’s Education Budget 2026 Shaped University Strategy & Student Success](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/n6eiv71hg1.jpg) **Reassessing What and How Universities Teach** For universities in India and other countries the Education Budget 2026 means they have to think about what they teach and how they teach it. They also have to think about how they can measure if their students are doing well. The Education Budget 2026 is important for universities because it affects how they work and what they do. India’s spending on education has been going up over the past five years. The country is spending money on higher education, digital infrastructure and programs that teach people skills. This is what the government says it wants to do in its plans and budget reports. It wants to make sure the National Education Policy is put into action so that online learning platforms get better and that universities work closely with businesses. **From Enrollment Expansion to Employment Outcomes** The budget for 2026 is still focused on these things. It wants to make sure that the education system can handle students and that it is actually helping them get jobs. Just getting people into school is not enough. India has seen this before. When lots of students enroll in school. Then they still cannot find work. The National Education Policy and education spending are important for India’s education system and for the students. Education spending and the National Education Policy are key to making sure students get the skills they need. The budget has an effect on digital and blended education. The government is putting money into learning platforms, virtual labs and helping teachers get better at their jobs. This shows that they want to use a mix of offline learning for a long time. Studies have shown that blended programs have people finishing them and students are more interested, especially people who work. Universities that use learning as their main way of teaching are in a better position to help students keep going and finish their studies on time. These are two things that people who make rules and students really care about. Digital and blended education is important. The budget is helping to make it better. **Research and Innovation as Engines of Practical Impact** Research and innovation funding is really important. India spends a part of its money on research compared to other countries that are good at innovation. So the government is putting money into research that can be used in real life into centers that bring different subjects together and into working with companies. This means universities have a reason to stop doing things on their own and start working on problems that need to be solved. When we look at research that is paid for by the government we see that schools that work closely with companies are better at turning their research into something that can be used and at finding jobs for their graduate students than those who have finished their postgraduate studies. Research and innovation funding is helping to make this happen. **Financial Support as a Retention and Success Lever** Student financial support is really important. The money that schools set aside for things like scholarships and help with student loans can make a difference. This kind of support is especially helpful for students who do not have a lot of money or resources. If students get a little bit of extra financial help they are less likely to drop out of school. This is especially true for students who are just starting out. Schools that make sure their admissions and advising programs work well with the support they offer tend to have students who do better and succeed more often. Student financial support is something that schools should really focus on because it can make a difference in how well students do. **Skills and Workforce Readiness Take Center Stage** The budget puts a lot of importance on skills. Getting people ready for the workforce, which changes the way institutions plan. Money is being spent on things like training, special certificates and programs that are connected to what industries need. This is because people who have a mix of skills are the ones who are needed the most. When we look at what happens to people after they graduate we see that those who went to programs that were both tough and gave them skills get jobs faster and make more money early on in their careers. So now universities are not just judged on how people they enroll but also, on what happens to their graduates after they finish which is something that the budget is also focusing on. **International Collaboration Through Quality and Credit Mobility** International collaboration is something that is also affected by signaling. India’s education budget is mostly used for things inside the country. When it comes to making sure the quality of education is good, making credits transferable and recognizing degrees digitally it can affect how India works with other countries. Schools that create programs that meet standards and make it easy to transfer credits will do better especially for students who want to work all over the world. Data that shows the results of this approach says that it helps students move around more and get jobs in the run. International collaboration like this is really important, for students who want to work in different countries. **Changing Student Decision-Making in 2026** For students the budget plans have an impact. Now students think about what they want to achieve when they pick a course. They want to know if the course is useful, if they can study in a way that suits them and what they can do after they finish. It is not about which school they go to. Students who start school in 2026 will find that the system is about being able to adapt to learning all the time and getting proof that they have certain skills. The way money is being spent is helping students to do these things. The budget plans are helping students to be adaptable to keep learning and to get validation of their skills. Florida Coastal University is changing the way it does things. They want to help their students succeed. So Florida Coastal University is making sure their classes are easy to take and that they teach things that students will actually use in their jobs. Florida Coastal University is not just trying to get a lot of students, they want to make sure their students actually learn and get jobs. Florida Coastal University is looking at what the job market needs and making their programs fit that. In conclusion, India’s Education Budget 2026 is less about headline allocations and more about directional clarity. By reinforcing digital learning, research relevance, skills integration, and student support, it reshapes how universities define success. Institutions that respond strategically, grounding decisions in data and outcomes, are best positioned to translate budget priorities into meaningful student achievement.

Wars are often understood through images of battlefields, political negotiations, and geopolitical tensions. Yet their consequences extend far beyond the front lines. In today’s interconnected global economy, even a conflict thousands of kilometers away can quietly disrupt everyday life in cities around the world. The recent turmoil in the Middle East has triggered such a ripple effect. Disruptions in energy supply chains have affected the availability of commercial liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), a critical fuel used by hotels, restaurants, and food vendors. As supplies tighten and costs rise, many food businesses are struggling to keep their kitchens running. For thousands of delivery workers across India who depend on the booming online food delivery industry for their livelihood, the crisis has suddenly become personal. What began as a distant geopolitical conflict is now threatening the daily income of gig workers who form the backbone of the country’s rapidly expanding platform economy. ## The Invisible Workforce Behind Food Delivery Over the past decade, the rise of app-based platforms such as Swiggy and Zomato has transformed how urban India eats. With a few taps on a smartphone, customers can order meals from hundreds of restaurants and receive them within minutes. Behind this convenience lies a vast workforce of delivery agents who navigate busy streets, traffic congestion, and unpredictable weather to deliver food to customers’ doorsteps. Most of these workers operate within the **gig economy**, meaning they are not traditional employees. Instead, they work as independent contractors, earning money based on the number of deliveries they complete. For many workers, especially migrants and young people in urban areas, food delivery has become a crucial source of income. The flexibility of the job allows them to choose their working hours, but it also means their earnings are highly dependent on the volume of orders generated by restaurants and customers. When orders decline, their income falls almost instantly. ## A Crisis in the Kitchen The disruption in commercial LPG supply has forced many restaurants, dhabas, catering services, cloud kitchens, and roadside food stalls to slow down or temporarily suspend operations. Cooking large volumes of food requires reliable and affordable fuel. When commercial LPG becomes scarce or expensive, food businesses face a difficult choice: raise prices, reduce production, or temporarily close. For smaller establishments that operate on thin profit margins, shutting down even for a few days can become unavoidable. The consequences of such closures ripple through the entire food ecosystem. Restaurant staff lose work hours. Suppliers face declining demand. And delivery agents, who depend entirely on restaurant orders, suddenly find themselves with fewer trips and shrinking incomes. ## When Orders Disappear For delivery workers, every order represents a small but vital source of income. A typical delivery agent earns through a combination of per-order payments, incentives, and customer tips. On busy days, this system can provide a stable income. But when restaurants stop operating or drastically reduce orders, the platform’s algorithm simply stops assigning deliveries. Many delivery workers report that their daily trips have fallen sharply in recent days. For workers who rely on completing dozens of deliveries each day to cover fuel costs, vehicle maintenance, and household expenses, even a small decline can have serious financial consequences. Unlike traditional employees, gig workers rarely receive paid leave, unemployment benefits, or income guarantees. If there are no orders, there is no income. ## The Fragility of Gig Economy Livelihoods The current crisis highlights one of the central challenges of the gig economy: its inherent vulnerability to external shocks. While digital platforms have created new opportunities for flexible work, they have also shifted much of the economic risk onto individual workers. Delivery agents must manage their own expenses—fuel, vehicle maintenance, and mobile data—while relying on fluctuating demand for income. In times of stability, this system may function smoothly. But when disruptions occur—whether due to pandemics, fuel shortages, extreme weather, or geopolitical conflicts—the consequences can be immediate and severe. The disruption caused by the LPG supply issue demonstrates how quickly global events can destabilize local livelihoods. ## Workers Demand Government Support Recognizing the growing difficulties faced by delivery agents, the **Gig and Platform Services Workers’ Union** has called on the government to provide emergency financial assistance. The union argues that gig workers are part of a rapidly growing workforce that supports urban economies and digital commerce. Yet they often lack the social protection available to workers in traditional employment. According to worker representatives, temporary income support or relief measures could help delivery agents cope with sudden disruptions caused by factors beyond their control. Their demand also reflects a broader debate about the rights and protections of gig workers. As digital platforms continue to expand, policymakers across the world are grappling with questions about how to ensure fair working conditions and social security for platform-based labor. ## The Expanding Gig Economy India’s gig economy has grown rapidly over the past decade, driven by digital platforms that provide services ranging from ride-hailing and food delivery to logistics and freelance work. Millions of workers now rely on these platforms for income, making the gig workforce an important component of the country’s urban labor market. However, the rapid expansion of the sector has also raised concerns about worker welfare. Many gig workers lack access to health insurance, retirement benefits, or income protection during economic disruptions. Recent policy discussions in India have begun exploring ways to extend social security benefits to gig workers. But the implementation of such measures remains a work in progress. The current crisis underscores why such protections may become increasingly necessary. ## Global Conflict, Local Consequences The disruption caused by the Middle East conflict illustrates the interconnected nature of the modern economy. Energy markets, supply chains, and commodity prices are tightly linked across continents. When geopolitical tensions disrupt the supply of energy resources, the effects can cascade through industries far removed from the original conflict. For the food industry, fuel availability is essential for daily operations. And for delivery agents, the functioning of restaurants directly determines their ability to earn a living. This chain reaction demonstrates how global events can quickly translate into local economic challenges. ## Searching for Long-Term Solutions While the current situation may ease once energy supplies stabilize, it raises important questions about the resilience of urban service economies. Experts suggest that strengthening supply chain resilience, diversifying energy sources, and building social safety nets for gig workers could help mitigate the impact of future disruptions. For delivery workers, long-term solutions may include: - Social security coverage for gig workers - Emergency income support during crises - Insurance schemes covering health and accidents - Policies ensuring fair compensation and worker protections Such measures could help stabilize the livelihoods of workers who form the backbone of the platform economy. ## Beyond Convenience: Recognizing the Human Cost For many urban consumers, food delivery has become a routine convenience—an easy way to access restaurant meals at home or at work. But behind every delivery lies the effort of a worker who depends on that order for income. When restaurants close and orders disappear, the impact is not merely economic statistics—it is the loss of daily earnings that support families, pay rent, and cover basic needs. The current crisis serves as a reminder that global events, no matter how distant they may seem, can profoundly affect the lives of ordinary workers. And for the thousands of delivery agents navigating city streets each day, the consequences of war are felt not on battlefields, but in the quiet disappearance of the next order notification on their phones. **Categories:** Food --- ### [Stephanie Lee Transforms Commercial Real Estate and Mentorship](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/stephanie-lee-transforms-commercial-real-estate-and-mentorship/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Minneapolis Minn, Mar 13:** Commercial real estate is one of the most capital-intensive areas of business operations, shaped by shifting workforce patterns, fluctuating interest rates and evolving market demand. By focusing on real estate as a cost center, even multimillion-dollar companies often overlook how property decisions affect broader business objectives, leaving billions of potential value untapped. Woman-owned Global Street Partners was founded to address this historically unmet need. Led by founder and principal Stephanie Lee, the firm has completed more than $3 billion in transactions in its first decade. Her client portfolio spans multiple industries and geographies, including regional, national and international operations. Notably, the firm has never lost a client. Lee’s success is a story of vision and the confidence to step into spaces where women have historically been underrepresented. It’s also a testament to how she leverages a rare combination of strategic insight and execution to uncover opportunities others overlook. “Many corporations underestimate how critical it is to align real estate decisions with broader business, financial, employee and stakeholder strategies. No one was leveraging real estate as a catalyst for growth, scalability and competitive advantage,” she said. That realization prompted her to obtain a real estate license and intentionally redirect her career, modeling what strategic risk-taking can look like for other businesswomen. **This Niche Market is Not Easily Addressed** It is exceptionally difficult to find individuals who combine deep strategic business insight with real estate expertise, even at larger established commercial real estate firms. It is a persistent gap that education alone cannot fill. For Lee, this challenge became an opportunity to redefine what value looks like in the industry. Unlike others in her field, her real-world credibility sets her apart. She has held executive roles within Fortune 50 companies and built a global track record of buying, selling, growing and consolidating companies and their real estate. That combination of strategic leadership and hands-on execution is rare, and it is precisely what enables her to bridge a gap that corporations struggle to close. Even with zero marketing, Global Street Partners’ growth has validated Lee’s original hunch that there would be demand for her services. The firm’s revenues have doubled year over year since 2017, and now exceed $1 million annually. “The majority of my clients have grown from single to multiple locations,” Lee confirmed. “On average, they’ve achieved a 400% growth in square footage, and a 30-60% increase in asset or revenue growth.” **Mentoring the Next Generation of Women Leader** In addition to mentoring college students and offering internships, Lee is President of the Minnesota Chapter of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO-MN). This role enables her to positively influence others’ careers. “Women still tend to undersell their services,” she reflected. “I want to encourage members not to undervalue themselves and their businesses. Don’t be afraid to stand out. Learn the strategic way to take smart risks. “I’m grateful that Global Street Partners has become my voice,” she continued. “It’s enabled me to go beyond the transactions and put my heart into my work. I’m proudest of the depth of relationships with my clients. Together, we are building a mutually beneficial ecosystem.” During Women’s Empowerment Month, Lee’s story demonstrates that when women claim strategic authority, build relationships with intention and lead with confidence, they do not just participate in industry. They transform it.

Today, geopolitical events will remain in focus, despite a busy data docket. **WHERE WE STAND** – After a risk-on Tuesday, and a subdued Wednesday, we got a risk-averse Thursday, with caution prevailing across the board, amid a renewed surge in crude prices, as participants continued to closely monitor geopolitical events in the Middle East. We had a bit of a ‘triple whammy’ of bad news during the day, with President Trump noting that he views stopping Iran from developing a nuclear weapon as of ‘greater interest’ than oil prices; the Iranian Supreme Leader offering his view that the Strait of Hormuz should remain ‘close’; and, lastly, British intelligence reports chiming with the US assessment that Iran may have already started to mine the Strait. I’ll note that this latter point was denied by the Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister later in the session, though I think it’s safe to say few took his words at face value. In any case, also on the (marginally) positive side of the coin, there was news of Trump planning to suspend the ‘Jones Act’, which presently requires ships transiting between US ports to be US-flagged, and majority US-crewed. The aim here is clear, to ensure continued flow of crude and crude products from the Gulf of Mexico, to the US east coast, via generally cheaper foreign tankers, thus removing some pressure on prices at the pump. Still, this would be another ‘sticking plaster’ as opposed to a longer-run fix, something which can only come by re-opening Hormuz. I do wonder, though, if this is a precursor to the Admin going down the route of oil export restrictions. Again, if this were to happen, it might put a cap on domestic prices for a short while, but would be a longer-run negative for US-based refiners, and for transatlantic relations. That’s still a hypothetical for now, thankfully. Still, in the ‘here and now’, this remains a market where correlations with crude benchmarks remain essentially 1, as every asset continues to take its lead from the direction that energy prices are heading in. On that note, the front Brent contract settled north of $100bbl last night for the first time since 2022, with the ever-tightening physical market continuing to pile on upward pressure. Given that rally in crude, moves elsewhere were somewhat predictable. Govvies sold-off across the board, though Treasuries underperformed in a change from the recent norm, with the benchmark 2-year yield rising over 10bp on the day. Elsewhere, the dollar found renewed haven demand as the DXY continues its march towards what now feels an inevitable test of the 100 handle, while stocks faced stiff headwinds on both sides of the pond, and gold also rolled over, with bullion continuing to act as more of a risk asset than a haven. For the time being, momentum is likely to remain relatively in line with what we saw yesterday. I’d stress, though, that while I remain cautious on risk assets in the short-term, I’m still of the view that present events are more likely to prove to be short-term turbulence, and not a longer-run turning point, given that the fundamental backdrop is still a robust one all told. **LOOK AHEAD** – I’d wager that the price action we see today is quite likely to mirror that which we saw this time last week. Namely, a broad desire to de-risk as we move into the weekend, and with few, if any, seeking to ‘catch a falling knife’ and fade those risk-off moves if/when they begin to gather some steam. That said, there is a fairly busy data docket, even if none of it is likely to matter to markets at all. January’s UK GDP figures are set to show the economy having grown by 0.1% MoM at the start of the year. Subsequently, this afternoon brings a stateside data dump, including the second read on Q4 GDP, January’s PCE, durable goods orders, and job openings figures, plus the March UMich sentiment survey.. Besides that, all that’s left for me to do is to warn of the potential for gapping risk when trade resumes at the start of next week. I’d argue that the potential for a gap up in crude benchmarks is pretty high, especially if the weekend passes without any sign of de-escalation, or more importantly progress on re-opening Hormuz.

The combination of a stronger dollar and higher Treasury yields tends to weigh on the precious metal, as it increases the attractiveness of yield-generating assets compared to those that do not pay interest. In recent sessions, the market has adjusted its expectations regarding the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy. Persistent inflation concerns and the resilience of some U.S. economic indicators have led investors to reassess the speed and magnitude of potential rate cuts in the coming months, strengthening the dollar and reducing short- term appetite for gold. Rising U.S. Treasury yields have also been an important factor. When yields rise, the opportunity cost of holding gold increases, as investors find returns in fixed-income instruments more attractive. This dynamic has contributed to downward pressure on the metal, particularly after gold recently reached record highs driven by global uncertainty. However, the geopolitical backdrop continues to provide some support for the gold market. Tensions in the Middle East, particularly the conflict between Iran and Western powers, continue to generate episodes of risk aversion in financial markets. In such environments, gold maintains its traditional role as a safe-haven asset, helping limit deeper price declines. The rise in oil prices has also become a relevant factor for global markets. Attacks on energy infrastructure and supply risks in the region have pushed crude prices higher, in turn fueling global inflation concerns. A sustained increase in oil prices could lead to stronger inflationary pressures, complicating central banks’ monetary policy decisions. In this context, some analysts believe gold is currently in a consolidation phase following its strong rally in recent months. The precious metal has posted significant gains over the past year, driven by geopolitical uncertainty, central bank reserve accumulation, and the search for defensive assets against inflation. Central bank purchases remain one of the structural pillars of gold demand. Several emerging economies have continued increasing their precious metal reserves as part of a strategy to diversify away from the dollar and other financial assets. This steady institutional demand has helped maintain a solid foundation for gold prices. In addition, continuous inflows into gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) reflect the sustained interest of both institutional and retail investors in maintaining exposure to the metal. In an environment characterized by high geopolitical volatility, uncertain inflation, and shifting monetary policy expectations, many portfolio managers continue to view gold as a key hedging instrument. In conclusion, although gold has recently corrected amid a stronger dollar and adjustments to U.S. interest rate expectations, the market’s structural fundamentals remain supportive. The combination of geopolitical tensions, central bank purchases, institutional demand, and inflation risks could keep the precious metal well supported over the medium term, leaving the door open for new record highs if macroeconomic conditions once again favor safe-haven assets. **Categories:** business --- ### [Brihaspathi Technologies Enables Live Monitoring at 8,300 Telangana Polling Stations](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/brihaspathi-technologies-enables-live-monitoring-at-8300-telangana-polling-stations/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Hyderabad, Mar 13:** Brihaspathi Technologies recently deployed a large-scale live webcasting and surveillance infrastructure to support the Telangana Urban Local Bodies Elections 2026, enabling election authorities to monitor polling activities in real time across thousands of polling stations in the state. **As part of the initiative, the company installed and managed more than 13,000 surveillance cameras across nearly 8,300 polling stations covering 32 districts in Telangana.** The technology framework allowed officials to view live feeds from polling stations through centralized monitoring systems, strengthening oversight and improving coordination during polling hours. Conducting elections on such a scale presents significant logistical and technological challenges. The project required rapid deployment of equipment, reliable connectivity across urban and semi-urban locations, and continuous monitoring to ensure the systems functioned without interruption throughout the polling process. To address these challenges, Brihaspathi Technologies established centralised monitoring centres linked to election control rooms and district administrative offices, enabling authorities to observe polling station activity in real time. The monitoring setup provided election officials with enhanced visibility into on-ground operations and allowed quicker responses to operational issues, if any. In addition to surveillance at polling stations, the technology deployment also covered strong rooms and counting halls, providing extended monitoring during critical phases of the election cycle. This comprehensive surveillance framework helped strengthen transparency and accountability in the electoral process. The company deployed trained technical personnel at polling locations to manage the installation and functioning of cameras, connectivity, and live streaming systems. Dedicated support teams and a centralized helpdesk were also established to ensure smooth functioning and immediate troubleshooting support throughout polling hours. Ensuring stable network connectivity across thousands of locations was a key priority for the project. Brihaspathi Technologies implemented a secure streaming platform and optimized monitoring infrastructure to deliver stable live feeds and continuous recording from the deployed surveillance cameras. The initiative enabled election authorities to maintain live visibility across thousands of polling stations simultaneously, improving operational coordination and enabling faster response in case of technical or administrative issues. The system also created a digital record of polling activities that can support verification and review processes when required. Industry observers note that the use of live webcasting and surveillance technologies is increasingly becoming an important component of modern election management. Large-scale digital monitoring helps strengthen transparency, improve operational efficiency, and build public confidence in the electoral process. **Commenting on the deployment, Rajasekhar Papolu, Chairman & Managing Director at Brihaspathi Technologies Limited, said,** > *“Deploying over 13,000 cameras across thousands of polling stations within strict timelines required strong coordination and robust infrastructure. Our focus was to deliver a reliable and secure monitoring system that enables election authorities to conduct polling with greater transparency and efficiency.”* The successful implementation demonstrates the scalability of technology-driven monitoring systems in managing large public infrastructure operations. Similar frameworks can be adapted for future municipal, state, and national elections, where real-time visibility and secure surveillance play a critical role in ensuring smooth election management.

The move reflects a noticeable increase in market caution as investors begin to reprice rising macroeconomic risks. According to data from The Street, around 68% of stocks in the market declined in the latest session, while only about 28% advanced. This suggests that selling pressure was not limited to a few sectors but rather spread across the broader market, reflecting a state of broad risk-off selling. In addition to the weakness in the S&P 500, other major U.S. indices also posted notable losses, with the Dow Jones falling 1.56% and the Nasdaq declining 1.78%. The main driver behind the sell-off has been the widespread activation of risk-off sentiment as geopolitical tensions escalate, triggering a sharp energy price shock. Oil prices have surged in recent days, with WTI briefly approaching the $120 per barrel mark. Although prices have pulled back from those highs, oil is still trading at elevated levels around $95 per barrel. Persistently high energy prices increase the risk of inflation returning, reinforcing expectations that the Federal Reserve may need to maintain a tighter monetary policy stance for longer. At the same time, a stronger U.S. dollar combined with a steady rise in U.S. 10-year Treasury yields – currently around 5.255% – has added further pressure on equity markets. Beyond macroeconomic factors, selling pressure has been particularly concentrated in technology and semiconductor stocks, which carry significant weight in major U.S. indices. Tesla fell 3.14%, Apple declined 1.94%, and Nvidia dropped 1.55%, while semiconductor stocks such as TSMC and Intel both fell more than 5%. These moves suggest that capital is flowing out of risk assets, particularly high-valuation growth stocks. Additionally, according to Reuters, several major banks such as Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan have begun tightening lending conditions, raising concerns that financial conditions may gradually become more restrictive. This development has further heightened market caution amid fears of rising financial risks in an environment where interest rates remain elevated. In my view, the S&P 500 may continue to face pressure in the near term as multiple macro risks are emerging simultaneously. Elevated oil prices, rising Treasury yields, and ongoing geopolitical tensions are making investors more cautious toward risk assets. Another key factor the market is closely watching is the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision next week. However, much of the market has already partially priced in a “higher for longer” stance from the Fed, particularly after the recent surge in oil prices and Treasury yields. Therefore, if the Fed simply maintains its current policy stance without signaling tighter policy than expected, the market’s negative reaction could be limited. On the other hand, if the Fed delivers a more hawkish message than anticipated, Treasury yields could continue to rise and place additional downward pressure on the S&P 500 in the near term.

The study, published in *Scientific Reports*, advances previous research at UT Southwestern that demonstrated the efficacy of AMF in eradicating biofilm from the surface of prosthetic joints such as those used in knee and hip replacement surgeries. > “Prosthetic joint infections can be devastating to patients, requiring additional surgeries and long courses of antibiotics,” said study leader David Greenberg, M.D., Professor of Internal Medicine and Microbiology and a member of the Division of Infectious Diseases and Geographic Medicine at UTSW. “Many patients experience substantial declines in physical, emotional, and even financial well-being following diagnosis because of the length and costs of treatment. Our findings may play a role in developing a new approach that can make a significant difference in patient recovery.” Prosthetic joint infections occur when bacteria latch onto the metal surface of an implant and form a sticky protective layer called biofilm. This coating blocks antibiotics and shields the bacteria from the body’s immune system. Eradicating biofilm would be a critical step forward in enhancing treatment protocols for patients who experience postsurgical infections. > “We know from earlier studies at UT Southwestern that alternating magnetic fields can be used to generate heat that disrupts biofilm,” said Dr. Greenberg, who invented the AMF technology and is a Distinguished Teaching Professor. “This study builds on our earlier findings by testing AMF against multiple bacterial strains and in combination with the most commonly used antibiotics that treat prosthetic infections.” The laboratory study found that across all pathogens and antibiotics tested, AMF significantly improved biofilm eradication, achieving greater reductions in bacteria levels compared with the use of antibiotics alone. The findings were consistent across different types of metal composition, suggesting the therapy may have broad applicability. The approach worked best when the magnetic field generated a brief, two‑minute burst of heat – enough to reach about 80 degrees Celsius – which helped break apart the biofilm. Importantly, researchers have found that changing the design of the coil used to create AMF can result in magnetic fields that heat a complex shape, such as a knee, within the desired temperature range. > “This technology could result in a paradigm shift in how patients are treated for these infections,” Dr. Greenberg said. “Our goal is to identify a therapeutic approach to enable implant retention so patients can avoid the risks and costs associated with multiple surgeries.” Other UTSW researchers who contributed to this study are co-first author Miranda Hairgrove, M.D., former UT Southwestern Medical School student; co-first author Sneha Banerjee, B.S., former Research Technician in the Greenberg Lab; Madhab Sapkota, Ph.D., Instructor of Internal Medicine; and Gerald Kramer, B.S., Senior Research Scientist. This work was sponsored by a research agreement with Solenic Medical and partially funded by a grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Greenberg is Chief Medical Officer for Solenic Medicine, which is commercializing the technology. UTSW is a shareholder in the company.

The researchers assembled data cohorts from multiple childhood cancer genomic initiatives and conducted a comprehensive analysis of structural variants across pediatric cancers, which comprise 60% of the mutations that drive childhood malignancies. By comparing the pediatric landscapes to adult cancers, the researchers identified which mutational processes drive these structural changes, and their associated genomic features, specific to childhood disease. The findings were published today in Cancer Cell. Genomic structural variants are like cut-and-paste errors that occur when pieces of the genome are broken in one place and then rejoined in the wrong location, causing disease. However, not much was known about the profile of these variants across pediatric cancers until the new pan-cancer analysis, a cross-cancer assessment that evaluates similarities and differences across the genome. > “We had always assumed that the mutation burden in pediatric cancer is lower than in adults,” said corresponding author Jinghui Zhang, PhD, St. Jude Department of Computational Biology. “But we observed that the structural variant burden in pediatric blood cancer is higher than that of adult counterparts.” This is because children usually have not had as much time to accumulate small genetic alterations, called point mutations, caused by aging and environmental damage. Yet, by assessing the data for structural variants, the team observed that these errors in the pediatric genome were prevalent, providing new insight into what drives certain types of pediatric cancers. **Homing in on structural variants in pediatric cancer** For their analysis, the scientists curated structural variants from the publicly available whole genome sequencing data of 1,616 patients across 16 major pediatric cancer types. They then compared summarized data from that cohort to 2,203 adult cancer genomes gathered by the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes (PCAWG) consortium, finding what is uniquely driving childhood cancers. The results point to errors in a specific DNA rearrangement type known as RAG-mediated recombination. In this normally occurring DNA rearrangement process, immune cells significantly alter their DNA using RAG1 and RAG2 proteins to create a rich protein repertoire to recognize potential threats, such as infection. The data shows that aberrant RAG-mediated recombination occurs in almost all subtypes of acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALL), the most common childhood cancer, including both B-cell ALL (B-ALL) and T-cell ALL (T-ALL). This understanding effectively widens the spectrum of possible leukemic drivers and gives new weight to the significance of structural variants in pediatric blood cancers. **Examining the mechanisms of mutational signatures in disease development** The researchers further sought to identify the source of mutational events leading to the development of structural variants. Through an analysis of 10 prevalent mutational signatures across cancer types, they identified mutational signatures that were highly represented across the curated dataset. One signature, SV7, stood out as abundant in B-ALL and T-ALL with significantly elevated RAG1/2 expression, suggesting that RAG-mediated recombination serves as a potential causative mechanism for the SV7 mutational signature in pediatric ALL. The finding was supported by the propensity of SV7 in adult lymphoid cancer, whose mutational basis is also suspected to be caused by a RAG-mediated recombination, providing ample evidence for the investigators to understand the mechanism contributing to this important signature. The findings demonstrate that there are important mechanisms driving pediatric cancer hidden in the structural variant data and showcase how the dataset and analysis serve as a rich resource for future investigations. > “This comprehensive dataset will provide more opportunities to identify targets and investigate the mechanism behind the structural variations,” Zhang said. “The data is well curated, so there’s a lot of datamining scientists can do to gain insight into the relevance of a target they are interested in studying, making it an incredible resource for the cancer community.” > > [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Suzuki Motorcycle India Introduces Pearl Grace White Colour for Burgman Street EX](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/suzuki-motorcycle-india-introduces-pearl-grace-white-colour-for-burgman-street-ex/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Gurugram, Mar 13:** **Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt.

The study, published in Nature Communications, was co-led by Wen Jiang, M.D., Ph.D., associate professor of Radiation Oncology, and Betty Kim, M.D., Ph.D., professor of Neurosurgery and core member of the James P. Allison Institute™. “Blocking these signals together resulted in a heightened immune response, suggesting this is like a one-two punch in order to get optimal results,” Jiang said. “It’s like unmasking the invisibility cloak from cancer so that T cells can better recognize tumor-derived antigens and allow immunotherapy to work more effectively.” How do cancer cells hide from the immune system? Macrophages are immune cells that are part of our body’s immune system. They are known as important “first responders” that can recognize and engulf cancer cells, a process known as phagocytosis. Once they destroy cancer cells, they also share pieces of the tumor – known as antigens – with other immune cells such as T cells, to alert and educate them on how to recognize and infiltrate tumors. However, cancer cells can often hide from these macrophages via proteins that act as “don’t eat me” signals, such as CD47. While CD47 is important for protecting healthy cells from being eliminated by the body’s own immune system, it is often overexpressed in many cancer cells as well, allowing tumor cells to hijack this system to avoid immune detection. What has been done to improve the immune response for glioblastoma? GBM, one of the most aggressive and deadly forms of brain cancer, is notoriously difficult to treat. While many cancers respond to immunotherapy, the GBM tumor microenvironment is considered immunologically “cold.” Some studies have looked at blocking the CD47 “don’t eat me” signal while also giving patients immunotherapy. However, while this approach works for certain bloodborne tumors, it is not effective in solid tumors. In this study, the researchers found another “don’t eat me” signal – CD24 – which is also highly expressed in GBM tumors, and examined the effects of blocking CD47 and CD24 both individually and at the same time along with immunotherapy. What does blocking both “don’t eat me signals” do? Blocking both CD47 and CD24 at the same time worked much better at improving immunotherapy response in GBM models compared to blocking each arm individually. Targeting both signals allows macrophages to better recognize and attack cancer cells, which then present antigens for other T cells and allow immunotherapy to work more effectively. > “We’re still trying to understand this area of innate immune system-driven therapies and how these first responders clear up cancer cells,” Kim said. “But what we are observing is that cancers are smart in that they have developed redundant strategies to evade our body’s system. Eliminating one pathway is often insufficient to eradicate them. This is another step toward the ultimate goal of making tumors that may or may not respond to traditional therapies respond just that much more.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** education --- ### [Rutgers-New Brunswick Earns Recognition for Its Community Engagement Efforts](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/education/rutgers-new-brunswick-earns-recognition-for-its-community-engagement-efforts/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mar, 13:** Rutgers University-New Brunswick’s commitment to strengthening communities through sustained partnerships, student engagement and research rooted in public need is drawing national attention for its impact locally and throughout New Jersey. The state university’s oldest and largest campus has received two distinctions. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching has reaffirmed Rutgers-New Brunswick’s community engagement classification. In addition, Rutgers-New Brunswick won the 2026 Insight Into Academia Civic Engagement and Community Service Award for its program, Advancing Community Development. > “This recognition highlights our role as a public flagship where excellence and access thrive,” Rutgers-New Brunswick Chancellor Francine Conway said. “Our teaching, research and service translate into real impact for people and communities across New Jersey and beyond.” The recognition is appreciated, said Tiffiny Butler, Rutgers-New Brunswick’s vice chancellor for access and community engagement. She added community-engaged work, while often done with “joy and vigor,” sometimes can be “silent labor.” “When good work is being done and it’s recognized, particularly by external folks, it’s rewarding in a different kind of way,” Butler said. “To be seen and known is important – not just for the recognition, but to build and sustain momentum in your progress to continue doing good work.” The designation from the Carnegie Foundation – which Rutgers-New Brunswick has held since 2009 – puts the university among top-tier institutions nationally in community engagement. The Carnegie classification is a comprehensive institutional self-study “where we had an opportunity to come together as a group of faculty, staff, students, and administrators to prepare an application that tells the Rutgers New Brunswick story, and that story is an impressive one,” said Butler, adding that about 30 administrators, staffers and others help prepare an extensive reaffirmation application. She added the reaffirmation “gives us a clear picture of where we are now as a campus and a starting point for communication to better understand where we can go together.” **Programs cited in the application include:** The Rutgers Bonner Leaders program Advancing Community Development, overseen by the Rutgers Collaborative Center for Community Engagement The IDEA Design Research Internship, which is tied to the Innovation, Design and Entrepreneurship Academy (IDEA) The Rutgers Scarlet Service Internship program, overseen by the Office of Career Exploration and Success at Rutgers-New Brunswick The Conversation Tree, a program created by the Rutgers Graduate School of Education and the Collaborative Center Research projects conducted through the Aresty Research Center The Leadership Scholars Certificate Program offered through the Institute for Women’s Leadership Sustainability Ambassadors within the Rutgers Office of Climate Action The April issue of Insight Into Academia magazine features an award section about Rutgers-New Brunswick and other winners. “Your institution’s work stood out for its impact, its alignment with mission and its clear dedication to meaningful progress,” Holly Mendelson, publisher of Insight Into Academia, noted in an email. Established in 2011, Advancing Community Development at Rutgers-New Brunswick is a community-based learning program in which up to 16 undergraduate students research health-related issues in New Brunswick each term. Funded by health care corporation Johnson & Johnson, participants receive mentorship and engage in direct community partnerships, often focusing on social determinants of health. **For example, Butler said students in the program have:** Developed presentations focused on high school and middle school students related to COVID-19. Worked on a marketing plan for the Live Well-Vivir Bien New Brunswick, a platform that provides awareness of the health and wellness resources available for city residents, through nonprofit group New Brunswick Tomorrow. Worked with the Arts Institute of Middlesex County to create a video that tells the story about the institute and the resources available to residents and visitors in Middlesex County. In turn, participating students learn about community health and wellness interventions, nonprofit management and the role of anchor institutions in communities. Bonner Leaders at Rutgers-New Brunswick are part of the national Bonner Foundation network of colleges and universities committed to sustained community engagement and addressing pressing social challenges. The program is highly selective (Butler said more than 250 people typically apply for 10 to 15 spots a year) and administered by the Rutgers Collaborative Center for Community Engagement. Bonner Leaders, who spent more than 50,800 hours of engagement during the 2024-2025 academic year, partner with community organizations in New Brunswick and Piscataway through service placements, civic initiatives and campus-community programs. The latest recognition “is not surprising,” said Christopher Godoy, the student body president at Rutgers-New Brunswick and a Bonner Leader. “I think our studies make a small portion of our overall story and experience as we go into the real world,” said Godoy, who leads the Rutgers University Student Assembly. Through the university’s community engagement programs and initiatives, “we’re able to better focus on how we can best serve our communities, building the skill sets that we will take away beyond our years here at Rutgers,” Godoy added. Selected as a Bonner Leader during his freshman year, Godoy volunteered at the Rutgers Center for Adult Autism Services on Douglass campus, where he assisted behavior analysts in managing and entering data for member files. A year later, he volunteered for The Urban Health Collaborative, a New Brunswick nonprofit organization focused on reducing health disparities and addressing adverse childhood experiences such as food insecurity. He supported the group by developing internal and external communications and conducting research for grants and workshop initiatives focused on financial literacy for members of the New Brunswick community. For the past two years, Godoy has been volunteering with the Eagleton Institute of Politics, where much of his focus has been spent researching how Rutgers is civically engaged from a classroom standpoint. Under the guidance of Eagleton Director Elizabeth Matto, Godoy reviewed course syllabi from multiple university departments to determine whether students, upon completing a course, would be “civically engaged and know their rights, know who their representatives are, and have the tools as citizens to best advocate for themselves beyond their years at Rutgers.” A participant of the Rutgers Scarlet Service Internship program, Godoy worked as a congressional intern for U.S. Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. from June to August. Now a senior on the pre-law track, Godoy will graduate in May from the School of Arts and Sciences, earning a bachelor of arts degree in political science and economics. > “I am lucky enough to be a part of a group of peers that have a common goal, and that is to serve the community despite our differences in our backgrounds and experiences,” said Godoy, who plans to pursue a master degree in public policy. “That’s something that really highlights the effort that the university has done to best ensure that while we enjoy our time here on campus, we’re also best equipped to serve our communities well beyond Rutgers.” > > [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** education --- ### [World-first trial shows crop waste can replace coal in steelmaking](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/world-first-trial-shows-crop-waste-can-replace-coal-in-steelmaking/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 13:** In a major breakthrough for industrial decarbonisation, researchers have successfully demonstrated a world-first approach to reduce emissions in steel production by partially replacing coal with agricultural waste. The trial marks an important step toward producing **low-carbon or “green” steel** while utilising India’s abundant crop residue. The study was led by Australia’s national science agency, CSIRO, in collaboration with researchers from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc). The project validated the use of biomass derived from rice husk pellets to generate **biomass-based syngas** for iron ore reduction at commercial scale. The trial was conducted in partnership with RESCONS Solutions Pvt. Ltd. and at the facilities of Jindal Steel in Odisha. Researchers successfully blended **5% and 10% rice husk pellets** into the plant’s gasifiers and achieved sustained syngas production without affecting operational performance. Steel production is among the world’s most carbon-intensive industries, responsible for nearly **10% of global carbon emissions**. India’s rapidly expanding steel sector presents both an opportunity and a challenge. The country’s steel capacity is expected to grow to **300 million tonnes by 2030** and **500 million tonnes by 2047**, but current production methods rely heavily on coal, resulting in emissions of about **2.55 tonnes of CO₂ per tonne of steel**—higher than the global average. The initiative aligns with India’s broader climate ambitions, as the government aims to achieve **net-zero emissions by 2070**. As part of this strategy, the Ministry of Steel is promoting several decarbonisation pathways, including electric arc furnaces, increased scrap usage, carbon capture, green hydrogen, and biomass-based energy solutions. The research was supported through the **India–Australia Green Steel Research Partnership**, funded by the Australian Government. By converting agricultural residues such as rice husks into fuel for steelmaking, the initiative also addresses the challenge of managing crop waste while supporting sustainable industrial practices. According to the research team, if biomass-based processes are widely adopted across India’s steel industry, emissions from the sector could potentially be reduced by **up to 50%**, equivalent to nearly **357 million tonnes of CO₂ annually**. To accelerate adoption, the research collaboration has also developed an interactive digital map showing **India’s steelmaking facilities alongside regional biomass availability**. This tool enables industry stakeholders to evaluate supply chains and identify opportunities for integrating biomass-based energy solutions into steel production. The successful trial highlights the potential of combining **scientific innovation, international collaboration, and sustainable resource utilisation** to transform one of the world’s most carbon-intensive industries, bringing the global steel sector closer to achieving large-scale green steel production.

This upward momentum represents a more than six-fold expansion in under six years, driven by new listings as well as consistent unit price growth among existing REITs. Currently, five REITs are listed on Indian stock exchanges, including the most recent addition, Knowledge Realty Trust REIT, which listed in August 2025. The report highlights that the other four REITs delivered more than 20% Y-o-Y unit price growth between Q3FY25 and Q3FY26. > *“India’s REIT market has delivered consistent returns to investors through a volatile global cycle,”* said **Anshuman Magazine, Chairman and CEO, India, South-East Asia, Middle East and Africa, CBRE**. *“The listing of these instruments can provide flexible exit options for key investors, potentially driving a wave of institutional participation and deepening market liquidity. The structural reforms now taking shape are likely to significantly expand the segment’s investor base in the coming years”* The report further identifies three regulatory changes that are expected to broaden the market adoption of REITs in 2026 and beyond: - SEBI’s reclassification of REITs as equity-related instruments (effective 1 January 2026) acts as a liquidity catalyst, enabling broader participation from mutual funds and SIFs previously constrained by hybrid limits; the instrument’s inclusion in wider equity indices this July is poised to further attract significant passive inflows. - The sector stands to benefit from the RBI’s proposal to permit commercial banks to lend directly to REITs. This harmonisation with the existing InvIT framework is expected to rationalise borrowing costs—previously reliant largely on bond markets—thereby enhancing balance sheet flexibility and fostering distributable cash flow growth. - The Union Budget 2026-27 has articulated a strategic intent to monetise Central Public Sector Enterprise (CPSE) assets through dedicated REIT structures. This initiative is expected to unlock value from state-owned commercial real estate, offering institutional investors access to high-quality, sovereign-backed assets. **Rami Kaushal, Managing Director, Consulting & Valuation Services, India, Middle East & Africa, CBRE**, said, > *“As the regulatory framework evolves to enable broader equity market participation and lower the cost of capital for REIT platforms, we expect the pace of portfolio expansion and new listings to accelerate. Moreover, the SM REITs segment is adding another layer of maturity to the market.”* CBRE India Research estimates that India’s SM REIT market could exceed USD 75 billion, supported by over 500 million sq. ft. of eligible office, logistics, and retail assets. **Investor confidence remains strong** According to CBRE’s 2026 Asia Pacific Investor Intentions Survey, the office sector, the primary REIT asset class in India, is the most-preferred sector for capital allocation, with approximately 42% of India-based respondents indicating a willingness to invest.

However, groups often start by agreeing on principles; for example, protecting participants’ information, avoiding punitive allocation processes, and aiming for equitable sharing, rather than on a specific mathematical rule. This raises an important question: which risk-sharing rule is implied by a chosen set of principles—and what principles are implicitly endorsed by choosing a given rule? In a paper published in Risk Sciences, Jan Dhaene, Rodrigue Kazzi, and Emiliano A. Valdez present an axiomatic approach to this question. They formalized properties that a rule may satisfy, such as reshuffling (swapping participants’ losses swaps their contributions in the same way), source-anonymous contributions (contributions do not depend on which participant experienced which loss), and aggregate contributions (contributions depend only on the total loss, not on the individual breakdown). Using these concepts, the team showed how familiar rules can be understood as the unique outcomes of particular combinations of axioms. For instance, they established that equal sharing (the uniform rule) is singled out by combining reshuffling with source-anonymous contributions. As the authors write: “To illustrate, we demonstrate that the uniform RS rule, a simple mechanism in which risks are shared equally, is the only RS rule that satisfies both the reshuffling and source-anonymous contributions properties.” They then extend the same logic to characterize broader families of rules, including proportional and linear forms that incorporate more information about participants’ risks. The framework also accommodated scenario-based approaches that rely on agreed-upon “typical” (and, in some cases, extreme) scenarios, offering a practical option when probability-based modeling is not feasible.

These early forms of writing, dating back more than 3,000 years, are recognised as the origins of modern Chinese characters and as vessels of timeless human emotion and spirituality. Guided by the concept ***“Bringing Ancient Characters into Modern Spaces,”*** Sato transforms these primordial symbols into living works that resonate with contemporary aesthetic sensibilities. Her art transcends traditional calligraphy, appearing in diverse media such as wood, metal, ceramics, and stone. By merging historical depth with modern design, Sato creates works that channel the spirit of ancient writing into today’s architecture, interiors, and art environments. Kei Sato explains: > *“Ancient characters are the prototypes of the kanji used today. Although they are the oldest form of written language, their rediscovery in 1988 makes them both ancient and new. Inspired by oracle bone and bronze inscriptions, born from cultures that reflect unchanging human emotions across time, I continue to create under the theme ‘Bringing Ancient Characters into Modern Spaces,’ hoping to share their essence across all environments.”* Through her creative practice, Sato seeks not only to preserve these scripts as historical artefacts but to reinterpret and revitalise them, awakening the fundamental beauty and meaning of written forms within the context of contemporary art and space. The Japantastics.jp online site now features a selection of Sato’s works, which serve as a cultural bridge, reviving the rhythm and beauty of the world’s earliest scripts for the modern era. Through her reinterpretations, the primitive strokes once carved into bone or cast in bronze are reborn as expressions of universal harmony, emotion, and timeless design. **Kei Sato’s major overseas activities:** 1970: Began practising ancient Chinese calligraphy. 1994: Became independent. 1997: Established Raira Studio.

The fourth annual Black Men in White Coats Youth Summit, hosted by Cedars-Sinai, gave students hands-on exposure to careers in medicine through interactive demonstrations, mentorship and panel discussions. “We have students here from across the greater Los Angeles area and even as far away as Palm Springs,” said Nicole Mitchell, chief diversity, inclusion and wellbeing officer at Cedars-Sinai. Throughout the day, attendees rotated through activity stations where they explored medical technologies and techniques used by healthcare professionals. Students practiced surgical suturing, learned about respiratory therapy, examined medical imaging and extracted DNA from strawberries. Students also participated in panel discussions featuring leaders in medicine, academia and sports performance, who shared insights about their journeys into the field. For 11-year-old Marcell Jones, a student at Los Angeles Adventist Academy, the summit has quickly become a favorite annual event. “My favorite part of today was the strawberry DNA and the breathing practice,” Jones said, referring to activities where students learned how to extract DNA and intubate a mannequin. Jones attended the summit last year and returned this year with excitement—not just for the activities, but for the opportunity to reconnect with one of the doctors he met previously. “I took a picture with a doctor last year and I saw him again this year,” Jones said. “So I think I’ll see him again next year.” The experience is already shaping his future ambitions. “When I grow up I’d like to be a surgeon,” Jones said. “Because I want to save lives.” Mitchell said the event gives students an opportunity to explore the many possibilities within healthcare. > “Until young people can actually see it and experience it, it’s hard to imagine yourself in these roles,” Mitchell said. “Events like this give students the opportunity to explore what healthcare really looks like—from physicians and nurses to researchers and leadership roles—and hopefully spark a passion that leads them toward a career in the field.” The event has grown dramatically since Cedars-Sinai hosted its first summit, with fewer than 100 participants. This year, nearly 2,000 registered. > “Programs like this are an important part of our mission to serve the community,” said Peter L. Slavin, MD, Cedars-Sinai’s president and CEO. “By exposing young people to careers in healthcare, we can help inspire the next generation of physicians, nurses and healthcare professionals. At the same time, investing in students today helps ensure we have the skilled and compassionate workforce needed to care for our communities in the future.” For many participants, the event provided an opportunity to see themselves reflected in the healthcare professionals they met. Kennady Ardines, a junior at Etiwanda High School in Rancho Cucamonga, said the experience reinforced her ambitions. > “I want to be a pediatric ICU nurse—or maybe an obstetrician,” Ardines said. “Not a lot of pregnant women have support, especially young teen moms. I’ve always wanted to be that person for someone.” Ardines said representation plays an important role in shaping how she envisions her future. > “It’s not a normal thing to see a Black female doctor,” she said. “I look for a Black doctor even when I go to the doctor, because I know they understand me, because they are me.” Mitchell said the summit is also an opportunity for Cedars-Sinai employees to build a healthy future for the Southern California community. > “Cedars-Sinai is one of the largest employers in Los Angeles, and it’s important for us to show up for our community,” Mitchell said. “Our physicians, nurses and staff volunteer their time to mentor students because we believe in investing in the next generation of healthcare professionals.” For Jones, the experience already is helping him imagine his future. “I feel like it’s important to come here,” he said, “to learn all the stuff to be successful.” Cedars-Sinai Health Sciences University is advancing groundbreaking research and educating future leaders in medicine, biomedical sciences and allied health sciences.

Recent trade data from the United States suggests that the balance of global commerce may be entering a new phase. In January, the U.S. trade deficit narrowed significantly, reflecting a surge in exports and a moderation in imports. While the development may appear to be a routine economic adjustment, it carries broader implications for global markets and key trading partners such as India. For economists and policymakers, trade balances are more than statistical indicators—they provide insight into the health of economies, the strength of industries, and the direction of international economic relationships. The latest figures from the United States offer a window into how global demand, supply chains, and economic strategies are gradually being reshaped. ## Understanding the Dynamics of Trade Deficits A trade deficit occurs when a country imports more goods and services than it exports. In many cases, deficits are associated with strong domestic demand, as consumers and businesses purchase products from international markets. At the same time, persistent deficits can raise questions about competitiveness and industrial capacity. The recent narrowing of the U.S. trade deficit was largely driven by robust export performance. American manufacturers and technology firms experienced growing international demand for high-value products such as industrial equipment, advanced electronics, and aerospace components. Increased exports in these sectors helped reduce the gap between imports and exports. At the same time, imports showed modest moderation, reflecting a combination of factors such as changing consumer demand, inventory adjustments by businesses, and evolving supply chain strategies. Together, these shifts contributed to a significant improvement in the U.S. trade balance during the early months of the year. ## The Growing Importance of the U.S.–India Trade Relationship Among the many countries engaged in trade with the United States, India occupies an increasingly prominent position. Over the past decade, economic ties between the two nations have strengthened considerably, transforming their relationship into one of the most dynamic partnerships in global commerce. The United States has emerged as one of India’s most important export destinations, particularly for sectors such as pharmaceuticals, engineering goods, textiles, and information technology services. Indian companies have also expanded their presence in the American market through investments and partnerships in technology, manufacturing, and digital services. At the same time, India has become a growing market for American products, including energy resources, high-technology equipment, aircraft components, and defense systems. Recent trade figures indicate that the bilateral trade gap between the two countries narrowed to approximately **$2.8 billion in January**, suggesting a more balanced exchange of goods during the month. Rising Indian imports from the United States played a key role in this shift, reflecting stronger demand for American industrial products and energy supplies. While month-to-month fluctuations are common in international trade, the trend highlights the increasing economic interdependence between the two economies. ## India’s Trade Landscape: Growth Amid Structural Challenges India’s broader trade profile presents a complex picture. As one of the fastest-growing major economies in the world, the country has experienced rising demand for imported goods ranging from energy resources to advanced manufacturing equipment. This demand has contributed to a substantial merchandise trade deficit, as imports continue to outpace exports in several sectors. Energy purchases—particularly crude oil and natural gas—remain one of the largest components of India’s import bill. However, India’s economic structure offers an important counterbalance. The country maintains a strong surplus in the services sector, driven primarily by its globally competitive information technology and digital services industry. Software development, consulting, financial technology services, and business process outsourcing generate significant export revenues, helping to offset deficits in merchandise trade. This dual structure—import-intensive manufacturing alongside export-oriented services—defines much of India’s position in the global trading system. ## Technology and Innovation Reshaping Trade Patterns One of the most significant trends in modern trade is the growing role of technology and knowledge-based industries. Unlike traditional commodities, high-technology products often command greater value in international markets and play a critical role in national competitiveness. For the United States, sectors such as aerospace engineering, advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence systems, and semiconductor technologies have become powerful export drivers. These industries not only strengthen the country’s trade position but also reinforce its leadership in global innovation. India, meanwhile, has established itself as a global hub for digital services and software development. Indian technology firms provide essential services to businesses worldwide, including many American corporations. This strong digital partnership forms an important pillar of the economic relationship between the two countries. As the global economy becomes increasingly digital, trade will likely be influenced less by traditional manufacturing alone and more by innovation, intellectual property, and technological capabilities. ## Supply Chains in Transition Another factor shaping global trade balances is the transformation of supply chains. In recent years, companies have begun rethinking how and where products are manufactured and distributed. The disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with geopolitical tensions and rising transportation costs, have encouraged firms to diversify their supply networks. Many multinational companies are now exploring alternative production hubs to reduce dependence on single-country supply chains. For India, this shift presents a significant opportunity. Government initiatives aimed at boosting domestic manufacturing—such as production-linked incentive schemes and investments in industrial infrastructure—are designed to attract global manufacturers and strengthen export capabilities. If successful, these strategies could gradually reduce India’s merchandise trade deficit by increasing the country’s participation in global manufacturing networks. ## Policy and Strategic Trade Partnerships Trade relationships are shaped not only by market forces but also by government policies and strategic partnerships. Tariffs, regulatory frameworks, and bilateral agreements all influence the flow of goods and services across borders. Both the United States and India have taken steps in recent years to deepen economic cooperation. Dialogues on trade facilitation, digital commerce, and supply chain resilience have become increasingly important as both countries seek to strengthen their strategic partnership. Efforts to reduce trade barriers, improve market access, and promote investment are expected to play a crucial role in expanding bilateral commerce in the coming years. ## The Broader Implications for Global Development The narrowing of the U.S. trade deficit in January may appear to be a short-term statistical change, but it reflects deeper structural shifts in the global economy. Several long-term trends are becoming increasingly clear: - Technology-driven exports are gaining prominence over traditional commodities - Supply chains are becoming more diversified and resilient - Strategic economic partnerships are shaping international trade patterns - Services and digital trade are playing a larger role in national economies For emerging economies such as India, these trends offer both opportunities and challenges. The ability to innovate, expand manufacturing capacity, and strengthen global trade networks will determine how successfully countries navigate this evolving landscape. ## Looking Ahead As the global economy continues to adjust to new realities, trade dynamics will remain a central driver of economic growth and development. The evolving relationship between the United States and India provides a compelling example of how international partnerships can influence economic trajectories. The narrowing trade deficit recorded in January is a reminder that global commerce is constantly shifting. Changes in demand, innovation, policy, and supply chains can quickly reshape trade balances and create new economic opportunities. For policymakers, businesses, and investors alike, understanding these shifts will be essential in navigating the future of international trade. In a world where economies are more interconnected than ever before, the winds of global trade are always moving—sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically—but always shaping the direction of economic progress. **Categories:** business --- ### [Carsten Bönnemann Joins St. Jude to Advance Pediatric Neurology Research](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/carsten-bonnemann-joins-st-jude-to-advance-pediatric-neurology-research/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Memphis,Tenn Mar 13:** St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital today announced the appointment of Carsten Bönnemann, MD, as a faculty member to lead and chair the hospital’s newly created Department of Genomic and Translational Neuroscience. Bönnemann, who specializes in pediatric neuromuscular and neurogenetic disorders, comes to St. Jude from the National Institutes of Health, where he served as a physician-researcher and chief of the Neuromuscular and Neurogenetic Disorders of Childhood Section. While at the NIH, Bönnemann’s pioneering research led to key discoveries, including identifying a genetic cause of juvenile amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, advancing understanding of the genetics of neuromuscular disorders and the first in-human intrathecal application of AAV gene therapy for giant axonal neuropathy. > “Joining St. Jude is an extraordinary opportunity to accelerate discoveries for children with catastrophic neurological disorders. The mission of this new department is to understand the unique genetic and molecular roots of these devastating disorders and conceptualize genetic precision therapies based on this knowledge,” Bönnemann said. “At St. Jude, we have the ability to accelerate research and therapeutic discovery using cutting-edge science. By collaborating with colleagues across the institution, we will be able to push the boundaries of research, help discover the root causes of these disorders, and help configure new and unique therapeutics for patients where few options exist.” The Department of Genomic and Translational Neuroscience at St. Jude was formed as a natural extension of the institution’s commitment to children living with catastrophic neurological disorders. The aim is to change the treatment landscape and improve the quality of life through preclinical and clinical research. The department advances the Pediatric Translational Neuroscience Initiative and houses both the Center for Pediatric Neurological Disease Research (CPNDR), which drives basic research into complex pediatric neurological conditions, and the Center for Experimental Neurotherapeutics (CENT), which accelerates clinical development of promising treatments and will add new initiatives around genomic diagnosis and precision targeting of genetic therapies.

More than 300 stakeholders contributed to the process, generating over 1,000 proposed initiatives and nearly 900 votes on strategic priorities to shape the sector’s long-term manufacturing future. The Strategy was unveiled at a breakfast symposium and AFC member showcase in Mural Hall attended by over 90 industry and parliamentary guests, including members of the Parliamentary Friends of Australian Fashion & Textiles, and its Co-Chairs, Matt Burnell MP, Dai Le MP and Zoe McKenzie MP. The Strategy comes at a critical time for the industry. With 97 per cent of Australia’s clothing and textile products manufactured offshore, the sector remains vulnerable to ongoing global supply disruptions and trade volatility. Rather than compete against high-volume offshore manufacturing markets, the Strategy is focussed on closing structural gaps and accelerating advanced manufacturing to scale the sector’s comparative advantage, aiming to position Australia to compete globally in premium, technology-enabled and traceable production, built on the country’s natural fibre strengths. **Table 1: Strategy Outcomes & Australia’s Comparative Advantage** **Outcome** **Comparative Advantage** **1. Capture more value from Australian fibre** Australia is one of the world’s leading producers of premium natural fibres, including wool and cotton. Expanding domestic processing and spinning enables more of that value to be captured onshore. **2. Strengthen sovereign manufacturing capability** Australia has capability in specialised textile products where quality, compliance and supply security matter, including defence, healthcare and emergency service applications. **3. Build a globally competitive premium sector** Australia’s strength lies in high-quality, traceable and sustainably produced textiles and apparel, supported by natural fibres, strong design capability and advanced manufacturing. The Strategy outlines three strategic pillars underpinned by industry and government coordination as the levers required to deliver these outcomes by 2036. **Table 2: Strategy Pillars & Coordination** **Strategic Pillar** **Focus** **1. Activate and drive demand** Demand is the critical enabler. Strategic public procurement (federal and state) can anchor it, while Australian-made identification and coordinated national promotion can extend it through to consumer sectors. **2. Secure the workforce of the future** Create new skilled pathways for advanced manufacturing roles, enable skills transfer (median age of manufacturer is 57), protect women’s contribution and participation (58% of TCF manufacturers are women) and support the diverse communities in the sector (41% are from CALD communities). **3. Accelerate advanced manufacturing** Co-invest in modern machinery, new technologies and advanced manufacturing, rebuild early-stage fibre processing and yarn spinning – the sector’s ‘missing middle’ – and enable innovation in circular manufacturing and fibre-to-fibre recycling. **AN ECONOMIC CASE FOR ACTION** Independent modelling by RMIT University that full implementation of the Strategy’s coordinated policy platform will grow TCF manufacturing value added from $2.6 billion to $2.9 billion by 2030/31, delivering a cumulative $1.4 billion economic dividend over five years. The Strategy is also projected to create more than 1,000 new skilled jobs and $864 million in additional wages, with approximately half of those jobs are projected to be filled by women. At present, TCF manufacturing already employs more than 27,000 Australians – 58 per cent women (compared to 28 per cent in other manufacturing industries) and 41 per cent from culturally and linguistically diverse communities – and pays over $1.4 billion in wages annually. Strengthening this base will increase the competitiveness of Australia’s $28 billion fashion and textile industry, which employs nearly 500,000 Australians across the broader value chain. **SPOKESPERSON QUOTES** *“This Strategy sets out a clear roadmap for rebuilding a globally competitive Australian fashion and textile manufacturing sector. Australia already has exceptional design talent, advanced manufacturing capability and globally recognised brands. With the right coordination across industry, skills and procurement policy, we have a real opportunity to strengthen sovereign capability, create skilled jobs and position Australia as a leader in premium manufacturing.”* **Marianne Perkovic, Executive Chair, Australian Fashion Council** *“Australia is the world’s largest exporter of greasy wool and a globally significant cotton producer. Yet we export raw fibre and import finished goods at multiples of the original value. Re-establishing fibre processing and spinning capability restores the missing link in our value chain. Building the next generation of capability to capture this value – capability that is advanced, technology-enabled and circular – will also require stronger demand signals. Strategic public procurement can help anchor that demand and support the growth of Australia’s domestic manufacturing capability.”* **Samantha Delgos, General Manager, Australian Fashion Council** *“R.M.Williams has manufactured in Adelaide for more than 90 years. We employ skilled craftspeople, invest in apprentices and continue to modernise production while competing globally. What’s needed now is to activate a flywheel: demand enables investment in skills, skills enable advanced manufacturing, and technology allows Australian manufacturers to scale while maintaining quality.”* **Tara Moses, Chief Operating Officer, R.M.Williams** *“This Strategy is a serious economic blueprint for communities, supporting skilled jobs, strengthening regional manufacturing, and creating clearer pathways for women into trades and long-term manufacturing careers. It presents a coordinated, cross-portfolio agenda that connects procurement, skills and industry capability. As Co-Chair of the Parliamentary Friends group, I’m committed to supporting the sector to turn this plan into long-term coordinated action.”* **Matt Burnell MP, Co-Chair, Parliamentary Friends of Australian Fashion & Textiles** *“Epson is firmly committed to our partnership with the Australian Fashion Council and our joint goals around improving local manufacturing, furthering innovation and developing digital transformation. To that end Epson are also working closely with the AFC on a feasibility study for a ‘smart factory’ and shared manufacturing hubs similar to those we have already developed and implemented with The Social Outfit and Citizen Wolf where Epson’s direct-to-fabric digital printing technologies play a part in the overall production workflow. This National Manufacturing Strategy represents an important step forward for Australia’s fashion and textile industry. Epson is proud to support this initiative and help accelerate the adoption of advanced digital technologies that can drive greater sustainability, unlock new opportunities, and create the jobs of the future.”* **Craig Heckenberg, Managing Director, Epson Australia** The Strategy’s launch at Parliament House marked an important moment for Australia’s fashion and textile industry. To showcase the capability already operating in Australia, AFC members from across the manufacturing sector presented a cross-section of domestic production. The showcase featured R.M.Williams, Bianca Spender, Bond-Eye Australia, Clothing the Gaps, ABMT, Sylvia P, Waverley Mills, Silver Fleece and Stewart & Heaton. ![A group of people standing together holding shoes AI-generated content may be incorrect.](https://ci3.googleusercontent.com/meips/ADKq_Na5Quj7i_cpR37NSF_kQyv9TYtfyY6DimWpshFTxm-NZ7_i3MFWcaV2x1ienNBSYDz7NkaUZAUUy6izLBnceGYLXYCiWHzBDKk=s0-d-e1-ft#https://img.influencing.com/misc/295/284/275/o.jpeg) *The National Manufacturing Strategy for Australian Fashion and Textiles 2026 – 2036 launch at Parliament House in Canberra* The AFC and R.M.Williams also produced a short film titled ‘Made Here, Worn Everywhere’ profiling AFC members including Australian Defence Apparel, The Social Outfit, Maara Collective, Citizen Wolf, Waverley Mills and Silver Fleece highlighting the diversity of manufacturing already taking place across Australia. **WHAT’S NEXT: FOUNDATION TO 2029** The Strategy will be led by the Australian Fashion Council as the peak body for the sector. Progress will be measured through a two-stage assessment framework. 1. **Implementation review (to 2029):** This phase will assess progress in establishing the core architecture underpinning the Strategy, including procurement reform, national capability mapping, skills recognition pilots, shared manufacturing infrastructure and governance arrangements to coordinate delivery. 2. **Strategic outcomes review (to 2036):** This phase will assess progress against the Strategy’s long-term ambition – a competitive, technology-enabled and domestically anchored manufacturing sector with a sustainable workforce pipeline and globally recognised market position. The National Manufacturing Strategy for Australian Fashion & Textiles is supported by the Parliamentary Friends of Australian Fashion & Textiles group, co-chaired by Matt Burnell MP, Dai Le MP and Zoe McKenzie MP, with more than 60 bipartisan members across Parliament.

The building blocks required for this work are found across the tree of life, meaning this finding could help better understand and support plant resilience and human immune response, the researchers said. > “This is going to be interesting to a broad biological field,”said Libo Shan, a senior leader of the project and a professor in the U-M Department of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology, or MCDB. “We feel that this will raise some very exciting follow up work in medicine and agriculture.” Co-led by MCDB professor Ping He, the research, supported by federal funding from the National Institutes of Health, was published in the journal Nature. Put a ring on it One of the ways individual cells can protect their host organism from disease is by sacrificing themselves to prevent the spread of pathogens. This programmed cell death is an effective but delicate operation, He said. It can stop a disease from advancing if enough compromised cells are eliminated. But an overzealous response can claim healthy cells, which would also harm the larger host organism. > “Cell death may sound like a bad thing, but in plants and mammals, it’s a marker of resistance,” He said. “We need to have this defense, but it is also important to have this defense in a limited area and that’s what this study is talking about.” Over the past several decades, researchers have identified the genes and proteins in plants that initiate the cellular self-destruct sequence. During that time, they also found shared elements of this “resistome” at work in mammalian cells (thanks, in part, due to earlier research at Michigan Medicine). Still, scientists are working hard to map out the processes’ complete molecular choreography to understand how cells coordinate cell death without it becoming overkill. Recent studies in immunology revealed a key new move, that proteins involved in the process come together to form channels that can shuttle calcium ions. By themselves, however, these channels weren’t sufficient to initiate cell death. Now, He, Shan and their team have revealed an important next step. > “For the first time, we’ve shown how the channels organize into a beautiful ring structure on the cell membrane,” Shan said. The ring, which resembles a wreath or a necklace, Shan said, is a combination of proteins that bind to a cell membrane and six channels that orient themselves to run through the membrane. The team made this discovery working with Arabidopsis and Nicotiana bethamaian, popular plant model systems, and a high resolution total internal reflection fluorescence microscope purchased with NIH funding.The finding invites new questions about what exactly the rings do and how they do it. The team’s current hypothesis is that the rings enable communication with nearby cells, sending inflammation signals that can help initiate cell death in a targeted way. Shan, He and their team are now working with the U-M Life Science Institute and its Cryo-Electron Microscopy Lab to examine the rings in greater detail. > “The next thing that we’re doing is looking at what kinds of things could be leaking out through this structure, and also what supports the ring structure formation,” Shan said. “We haven’t answered all the questions, but we have advanced the field.” While these next steps are already yielding interesting results, the researchers remained excited about the new study’s potential to help others who are exploring fundamental biological questions and potential applications. For example, the discovery could open up new avenues for scientists working to make plants more resilient and to treat conditions where cell death runs amok in humans.”We know there are a lot of unknowns with this ring hanging on the ceiling of cells, but we know it is absolutely required to have the perfect amount of cell death, to have the perfect immune response,” Shan said. “We truly believe this work will lay the foundation to launch a wave of exciting research for continued discovery.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Sleep Well, Live Better: Why Quality Sleep Is Essential for Your Health](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/sleep-well-live-better-why-quality-sleep-is-essential-for-your-health/) **Published:** March 13, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ***By- Dr Pavan Yadav, Clinical Director & Senior Consultant – Interventional Pulmonology & Sleep Medicine, Associate Director – Lung Transplantation, KIMS Hospitals, Bengaluru.*** On the occasion of World Sleep Day, doctors from different fields are asking people to consider sleep as an essential pillar of health, like diet and fitness. This year’s theme, **“Sleep Well, Live Better,”** highlights how quality sleep plays a crucial role in maintaining physical, mental, and emotional well-being. ![Sleep Well, Live Better: Why Quality Sleep Is Essential for Your Health](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/52phymemcj.png) In today’s fast-paced life, people often consider poor sleep a normal aspect of life. However, sleep deprivation may pose serious health hazards in the future. From a weak immune system to heart health issues, sleep is linked to the repair, regulation, and recharge functions of the body. Here are five reasons why sleep is crucial for health. **1. Your Brain Needs Sleep to Reset:** Sleep plays a crucial role in brain function. During deep sleep, the brain processes memories and builds new neural connections. Lack of sleep can have a negative impact on concentration, decision-making, and emotional regulation. Lack of sleep may also lead to neurological problems in the future. **2. Sleep Strengthens Your Immune System:** A good night’s sleep helps build a strong immune system. It helps the immune system develop cells and produce antibodies necessary in fighting infections. Lack of sleep makes a person susceptible to common infections. There is a clear relationship between lack of sleep and frequent illness. **3. Poor Sleep Can Harm Heart Health:** Sleep disorders and short sleep time have been associated with cardiovascular problems. People who get less than six hours of sleep a night may be at a higher risk of developing high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. During sleep, the heart rate and blood pressure are lowered, giving the cardiovascular system a rest. **4. Hormones and Metabolism Depend on Sleep:** Sleep helps in regulating hormones that govern hunger, metabolism, and stress. Lack of sleep can cause an increase in hunger and a desire to eat high-calorie foods. Sleep deprivation can cause a person to develop problems related to metabolism, including diabetes. **5. Mental Health Is Closely Linked to Sleep:** Sleep and mental health go hand in hand. Lack of sleep may exacerbate problems with stress, anxiety, and mood swings. On the other hand, mental health problems like depression may cause sleep problems. It is often recommended to improve sleep hygiene as a measure of improving mental health. **Recognising Common Sleep Disorders** People are also suffering from sleep disorders that are undiagnosed. One such sleep disorder is **sleep apnea**. This is characterized by breathing stops during sleep. The signs include loud snoring, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and morning headaches. Another sleep disorder is **delayed sleep phase syndrome**. This is becoming a concern among shift workers and Gen Z youth. This is characterized by a shift to extremely late bedtimes and wake times. **Doctor’s Advice for Better Sleep** Having a regular sleep schedule, reducing screen time before going to bed, cutting down caffeine intake before bedtime, and having a relaxing sleep environment are some of the doctor’s advice for better sleep. The ideal amount of quality sleep for adults is 7-9 hours daily. This World Sleep Day, let’s emphasize that **“sleep is not a luxury; it is a biological necessity.”** Prioritizing quality sleep today is a great way to prevent chronic diseases and enhance quality of life tomorrow. If you or your family members experience symptoms such as persistent snoring, daytime sleepiness, fatigue, or irregular sleep patterns, doctors recommend consulting a sleep specialist or pulmonologist to evaluate possible underlying sleep disorders. This World Sleep Day, remember: Better sleep is the foundation of better health! Sleep well today; to live well tomorrow!

At the same time, both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite also fell to their lowest levels this year. In my view, what is happening is not merely a temporary technical correction, but rather a direct reflection of the return of geopolitical risks to the core of financial asset pricing. The sharp rise in oil prices, coupled with escalating tensions in the Gulf, has revived memories of energy shock scenarios that often pressure markets in the short term and create a more cautious stance among global investors. The strong surge in oil prices, with Brent Crude Oil exceeding $100 per barrel for the first time since 2022, represents in my opinion the most decisive factor explaining the recent market movements. Even the threat of closing the Strait of Hormuz or disruptions to oil tanker traffic is enough to trigger a repricing of risk across global markets, as this strategic passage represents a vital artery for global energy flows. From this perspective, markets are not only reacting to current price increases but also to the possibility of prolonged supply disruptions. This, in turn, pushes investors to reduce their exposure to riskier assets, particularly cyclical sectors such as banks and technology stocks. In my assessment, the reaction of financial markets also reflects Wall Street’s strong sensitivity to sudden increases in energy costs. Higher oil prices squeeze corporate margins and raise production and transportation costs, while also potentially reigniting inflation concerns that markets had believed were gradually easing. For this reason, we witnessed broad declines across most sectors of the S&P 500, while energy companies such as ExxonMobil and Chevron were among the few beneficiaries of these developments. This divergence once again highlights how equity markets react unevenly to energy shocks across different sectors. However, it is important to emphasize that the current market decline still falls within the range of a normal correction when compared with the substantial gains recorded by U.S. equities over the past two years. The S&P 500 remains only about 4% below the record high it reached in January, suggesting that investors have not yet entered a state of genuine panic. In my view, this indicates that markets are partly betting that the geopolitical conflict will not evolve into a prolonged global energy crisis, and that major powers will attempt to contain the escalation before it turns into a broader economic shock. At the same time, measures announced by Western governments to mitigate rising prices—such as the United States’ decision to release 172 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, along with a coordinated plan by the International Energy Agency to release 400 million barrels of oil—may help ease pressure over the medium term. Nevertheless, I believe the impact of these steps will likely remain limited in the short term, as markets tend to focus more on immediate geopolitical risks than on future supply increases that may only arrive months later. From a broader economic perspective, the real risk lies not only in higher oil prices but also in their potential impact on U.S. consumer sentiment. The American economy relies heavily on consumption, and any sustained rise in fuel prices could weigh on household purchasing power and influence consumer spending. That said, I believe the U.S. economy still demonstrates a degree of resilience. Data continues to show strength in the labor market and relative stability in income levels, which could help mitigate the negative impact of an energy shock if it does not persist for an extended period. In my analysis of market prospects over the coming weeks, the decisive factor will likely be the evolution of the conflict in the Middle East and its effect on global oil flows. If attacks on oil tankers continue or key maritime routes remain threatened, we may witness another wave of volatility in equity markets and possibly additional pressure on the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Conversely, if signs of political de-escalation emerge or maritime traffic returns to normal, markets could quickly recover part of their recent losses. Over the medium term, I tend to view the current developments as a test of the resilience of the bull market that began after 2023. Financial history shows that bull markets rarely end because of short-term geopolitical shocks, but rather due to deep economic or financial imbalances. So far, such imbalances do not appear to be clearly present in the U.S. economy, which leads me to expect that the current decline will remain a cyclical correction rather than the beginning of a prolonged bear market. In conclusion, what we are witnessing today is essentially a temporary repricing of risk on Wall Street, driven by rising energy prices and escalating geopolitical tensions. While these developments may keep markets under pressure in the short term, the fundamental pillars of the U.S. economy remain relatively solid. Therefore, I expect markets to remain volatile in the coming weeks, but I do not yet see sufficient signs of a structural shift toward a prolonged downward trend—unless the current energy crisis evolves into a sustained shock capable of reshaping global economic balances.

Brown, MD, the Jean and David W. Wallace Dean of Yale School of Medicine. “As thought leaders in artificial intelligence and medicine, our faculty see firsthand the extraordinary potential of ethically designed and implemented AI models to potentially transform the lives of patients here and around the globe.” Academic medicine, she says, plays a key role in guiding AI’s path forward, grounding innovation in rigorous science, clinical insight, and equitable use in patient-care settings. “We want to share the exciting research happening here at Yale and at other institutions,” says Lucila Ohno-Machado, MD, PhD, the Waldemar von Zedtwitz Professor of Medicine and Biomedical Informatics and Data Science, deputy dean for biomedical informatics, and chair of the Department of Biomedical Informatics and Data Science. “We will discuss best practices for important issues like developing, evaluating, and deploying AI in translational research—that is, research that is close to being applied in healthcare practice — and we plan to kick off collaborations that can advance the work we’re all doing.” The symposium is designed to connect research groups across Yale’s campus with those of other institutions. “We will have speakers talking about AI in clinical practice, such as how to apply it to specific disease areas,” says Hua Xu, PhD, the Robert T. McCluskey Professor of Biomedical Informatics and Data Science at Yale School of Medicine and co-creator of the symposium. Xu says both ethics and privacy issues will be discussed. According to Xu, institutions are starting to develop appropriate policies and governance structures for developing and implementing medical AI applications. “But rather than every medical institution developing its own governance framework in isolation, it makes much more sense for us to come together, share experiences, and think through these challenges collectively,” he says. YSM invites Clinical and Translational Science Award hubs to attend and to submit poster presentations, highlighting ongoing or completed work at the intersection of AI, informatics, clinical and translational science. Members of the media are also invited. The event is presented by the Yale Center for Clinical Investigation and the Yale Biomedical Informatics and Computing core from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., followed by a reception. It will be held at 101 College St., New Haven, Conn. A remote option is available. To register, click here.

Chidambaranar Port Authority,** addressed a high-level Roundtable on the “Future of India’s Shipbuilding and Ship Recycling,” outlining a transformative roadmap to elevate India’s maritime standing. Speaking to distinguished delegates and industry leaders, Shri Purohit detailed how the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and the strategic direction provided by the Union Minister for Ports, Shipping and Waterways, Shri Sarbananda Sonowal, have created the fiscal architecture necessary to shift India into a dominant maritime power. ![PHDCCI organized a Roundtable on “Future of India’s Shipbuilding and Ship Recycling: Decoding Budget Announcements to power India’s Maritime Future”](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/8ipj5sgrd7.JPG) The Chairperson highlighted that the comprehensive policy framework, championed by the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways, is built upon four strategic pillars: financing, capacity expansion, policy reform, and skill development. Central to this vision is the ₹69,725 crore Maritime Revitalisation Package, the ₹25,000 crore Maritime Development Fund, and the extension of the Shipbuilding Financial Assistance Scheme through 2036. Shri Purohit emphasised that the 48 per cent surge in the Ministry’s budget allocation to ₹5,164.8 crore signals a clear sovereign intent to reduce the ₹6 lakh crore annual freight drain to foreign shipping lines, fulfilling the Prime Minister’s vision of an Aatmanirbhar Bharat in the maritime sector. A cornerstone of this industrial expansion is the newly announced Shipbuilding Project, to be executed through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) named the ‘National Shipbuilding & Heavy Industries Park, Tamil Nadu’. This ambitious project is a 50:50 Joint Venture between the V.O. Chidambaranar Port Authority and the State Industries Promotion Corporation of Tamil Nadu (SIPCOT). With an estimated project cost of ₹30,000 crore and spanning a total land area of 2,000 acres, this facility will serve as a primary engine for India’s domestic maritime manufacturing and heavy engineering. Significant focus was also placed on the integration of the circular economy through the Shipbreaking Credit Note Scheme. This innovative policy offers vessel owners a credit note equivalent to 40 per cent of the scrap value of ships recycled at Indian yards, redeemable against the cost of new domestic construction. Shri Purohit noted that under the guidance of Minister Sarbananda Sonowal, India has positioned itself as the world’s most responsible and regulation-ready recycling destination, with 106 yards at Alang already compliant with the Hong Kong International Convention. The Chairperson also showcased V.O. Chidambaranar Port as a model for the Maritime Amrit Kaal Vision 2047. As India’s first port to produce green hydrogen and the first to exceed one megawatt of rooftop solar generation, the port is currently executing a ₹15,000 crore Outer Harbour project. This expansion is set to establish Southern India as a premier transhipment hub capable of competing with major international ports such as Singapore and Colombo. In his concluding remarks, Shri Purohit extended his gratitude to the PHDCCI for its catalytic role in bridging policy intent with industry action. He urged all stakeholders to move from deliberation to execution, seizing the global moment of supply-chain realignment to propel India into the top five shipbuilding nations by 2047.

It also triggers a release of dopamine in the brain which acts as a biochemical reward or incentive—through a newly identified neural circuit. Although the circuit was discovered in mice, it could also be at work in other mammals, the researchers said, adding to a growing body of evidence that there’s a deeper connection between our brains and our oral health and habits. “In the old point of view, everyone sort of believed that gnawing was a very passive behavior driven by mechanical considerations,” said Bo Duan, associate professor in the U-M College of Literature, Science, and the Arts Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology. Duan led the study with Joshua Emrick, assistant professor at the U-M School of Dentistry. “What we’re learning is that this is indeed a motivated behavior. There is a defined neural circuit that connects sensory input from the teeth to dopamine neurons in the midbrain,” Duan said. “This tells us that even very basic maintenance behaviors are actively reinforced by the brain.” He added that identifying the circuit provides a concrete biological explanation for why these repetitive behaviors are sustained over time. This connection could help explain why dogs chew bones and why people bite their nails. On the human health front, dopamine regulation has also been implicated in oral issues. That includes bruxism, the medical term for involuntarily grinding or clenching your teeth, and malocclusion, which are when a patient’s upper and lower teeth are misaligned. The team’s discovery, published in the journal Neuron, could help lead to more effective interventions for such conditions in revealing the connection between sensations in the mouth and dopamine releases in the brain. “I think the most lasting impact of this is that it helps us understand why animals have repetitive oral behaviors and how that relates to human pathology,” said Emrick, a dentist and sensory neuroscientist who works in the Department of Biologic and Materials Sciences and Prosthodontics. “If you have a malfunction in the system at a higher level, it ultimately can be very destructive for our oral tissues and, honestly, we don’t have targeted treatments for the underlying issue. We need a fundamental understanding of how and where these behaviors are being driven in the brain.” The study was supported by federal funding from several of the National Institutes of Health, including the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research. Always be chomping For rodents—an order of mammals that includes mice, rats, squirrels, beavers, groundhogs, capybaras—incessant gnawing is a way of life (the word rodent comes from the Latin “rodens,” which means “gnawing”). Their incisors grow continuously throughout their lives, so they gnaw to keep their teeth at a healthy length and shape, which in turn maintains their jaw alignment. Without that alignment, eating becomes difficult, if not impossible.The prevailing understanding had been that this behavior was driven by reflex for mechanical maintenance in a rodent’s mouth and their choice of hard substrates. But Duan’s team, which uses mouse models to study neural circuits underlying touch and somatosensation, began to notice that some of their experimental animals were becoming long in the tooth. “That observation suggested to us that something beyond a simple reflex might be involved,” Duan said. Recognizing that abnormal tooth overgrowth might reveal something more than a simple reflex, Duan partnered with Emrick who studies oral and craniofacial sensation to investigate the phenomenon more deeply and explore its broader oral health implications. Their collaboration revealed that touch-sensitive neurons in the tissue around teeth send signals to a junction that connects to two distinct paths. One is to motor neurons that help move the jaw and position its incisors—that’s the sort of mechanical component. The other extends into the midbrain where it activates a dopamine center, giving rise to the motivational component of the behavior. “If you block the motivation pathway, the sensory-motor pathway is still intact and that does help maintain teeth,” Duan said. “But, without the motivation, it’s just not very efficient. So the motivation part is very important.” In the case of rodents, that motivation is key to keeping their teeth in check and their jaws aligned, ensuring they’ll be able to eat normally to survive. “Even though human teeth stop growing, the brain mechanisms that drive repetitive oral behaviors may still be operating,” Duan said. “Understanding this circuit helps us see how sensory signals from the mouth influence motivation and, potentially, oral health.” Previous studies have shown that people with conditions that affect their motivation and behavior, including autism and depression, experience higher than average instances of malocclusion. Furthermore, Emrick said, Parkinson’s disease and its treatments affect the brain’s dopamine levels and when patients are given continued dopamine precursors as part of their treatment, they can develop bruxism in the long-term. “Now we have the evidence for a biological circuitry link that may be contributing,” Emrick said. The new circuit provides a concrete example of a possible answer, which could potentially create new pathways to treating these issues. The team is also interested in if the circuit could explain gnawing habits in other animals. “If you look across mammals, there’s something about oral tone that needs to be maintained—even if you’re an animal without ever-growing incisors. Keeping your musculature in shape is incredibly important because you need to acquire and consume foods,” Emrick said. “We came in with a curiosity to understand this peculiar feature of rodents—gnawing—and this led us to a new understanding of neural processes that affect human health. Part of our motivation is to make fundamental discoveries and direct those toward human health.” Duan said the team is now exploring whether similar sensory-reward pathways regulate other behaviors beyond gnawing. “We think this may represent a more general principle,” he said. “Understanding how these circuits are organized could eventually help us target them when the behavior becomes maladaptive.” Researchers from the U-M Life Sciences Institute, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Cell and Developmental Biology, and Department of Molecular and Integrative Physiology also contributed to the study.

Combining intense physical endurance with tactical precision, the sport is defined by fast rallies, strategic shot-making, and quick reflexes. As squash prepares to make its historic debut at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, interest in the sport is rapidly growing worldwide. ![Squash 101: 7 Things to Know Before the JSW Indian Open Begins](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/wxtpy3hf6k.JPG) Amid this rising momentum, the JSW Indian Open 2026 will return for its second season from **18–22 March 2026** at the iconic Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. Following a successful inaugural edition, the tournament will once again bring together leading Indian and international squash players, offering fans an opportunity to witness top-level competition live. As the sport continues to gain popularity ahead of its Olympic milestone, understanding the basics of squash can help new fans better appreciate the intensity and strategy behind the game. Here are seven key fundamentals every spectator should know: **1. The Court** Squash is played inside a fully enclosed four-walled court. Players hit the ball against the front wall while keeping it within marked boundaries on the walls. The **‘tin’**, located at the bottom of the front wall, acts like a net—if the ball strikes it, the rally ends immediately. **2. Winning the Rally** The objective is to hit the ball so that the opponent cannot return it before it bounces twice. Players use a mix of powerful drives, angled shots, and soft touch shots to outmaneuver their opponent. **3. The Scoring System** Professional squash uses the **Point-A-Rally (PAR)** scoring system. Each rally awards a point regardless of who served. Games are played to **11 points**, and a player must win by at least **two points** if the score reaches 10-10. **4. The Serve** Every rally begins with a serve. The server must hit the ball above the service line on the front wall, ensuring it lands in the opponent’s back court. The player who wins the rally retains the serve. **5. The ‘T’ – The Most Important Position** The **‘T’**, located at the centre of the court, is a crucial position in squash. Players aim to return here after every shot, allowing them to move quickly and cover the entire court efficiently. **6. Lets and Strokes** Because both players share the same playing space, interference can occur. A **‘let’** is called when a rally is replayed due to minor obstruction, while a **‘stroke’** is awarded when a player is denied a clear winning shot. **7. A Game of Speed and Strategy** Squash is not just about power. Top players rely on **drop shots, volleys, and tight drives** along the wall to control the pace of the rally. Fitness, anticipation, and tactical awareness are essential elements of the game. With its high-speed action and strategic complexity, squash offers spectators an engaging and dynamic viewing experience. The upcoming JSW Indian Open 2026 is set to showcase the sport at its finest while building excitement in India as squash moves closer to its historic Olympic debut.

Bringing together an exceptional assembly of global leaders, policymakers, innovators, entrepreneurs, and cultural voices, the Conclave has established itself as one of the most closely watched platforms for ideas, influence, and insight in India and beyond. Each year, it convenes the decision-makers and thinkers who interrogate the forces redefining nations, markets, and societies in real time. The theme for 2026 reflects the defining paradox of the present era. The world is witnessing extraordinary breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, technological innovation, and economic transformation, even as it confronts profound breakdowns: geopolitical rivalries, supply-chain disruptions, climate pressures, and institutional strain. The Conclave will examine how leadership, institutions, and societies can convert disruption into durable progress while navigating an increasingly complex and fragile global landscape. Against this backdrop of shifting power centres and emerging alliances, the Conclave will host a wide spectrum of global perspectives from diplomacy, governance, enterprise, and culture. Conversations will reflect the realities of a multipolar world, where strategic partnerships are evolving, economic corridors are being redrawn, and nations are reassessing the balance between cooperation, competition, and sovereignty. As artificial intelligence reshapes industries, climate imperatives redefine policy priorities, and geopolitical alignments continue to evolve, the **India Today Conclave** will once again convene the voices shaping the decade ahead. At a time when the margin for error in global leadership has never been narrower, the Conclave remains the country’s most powerful platform for ideas that matter—**where influence meets insight and the future is debated in real time.** The India Today Conclave 2026 will host an exceptional assembly of global leaders, policymakers, entrepreneurs, cultural icons, and innovators in conversations that traverse economic futures, governance, technological ethics, cultural transformation, and India’s evolving weight on the world stage. **Global Pivot** - Piyush Goyal | Union Minister of Commerce and Industry - Ashwini Vaishnaw | Minister for Railways, Information & Broadcasting, and Electronics & Information Technology - Sergio Gor | Ambassador of the United States of America to India - Adelle Nazarian | Geopolitical Consultant - H.E.

Zoghbi, MD, has been selected as the inaugural recipient of the Nancy Lurie Marks Prize for Autism Research, the Institute’s highest honor recognizing transformative contributions to autism research. Zoghbi is a Distinguished Service Professor in the Departments of Molecular and Human Genetics, Pediatrics, Neuroscience, and Neurology at Baylor College of Medicine, and Director of Texas Children’s Duncan Neurological Research Institute (Duncan NRI). She is also an Investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. A pioneering pediatric neurologist and physician–scientist, Zoghbi has fundamentally reshaped understanding of the genetic and molecular basis of neurological disease – including autism spectrum disorder – by integrating human genetics, animal models, and systems-level neuroscience to define how disruptions in gene regulation, neuronal maturation, and circuit function drive disease. > *“When thinking of an appropriate inaugural recipient of the Nancy Lurie Marks Prize for Autism Research, we wanted to consider the pre-eminent minds whose long history of incredible work in autism research continues to have a lasting effect,” said prize committee chair Frances E. Jensen, MD, Chair of the Department of Neurology and Professor of Neurology at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania and co-director of the Penn Translational Neuroscience Center. “Dr. Zoghbi’s record speaks for itself, and we couldn’t think of a more deserving inaugural recipient who exemplifies the pioneering work in autism research that the Lurie Autism Institute wants to make possible.”* The Prize Selection Committee recognized Zoghbi for her landmark discovery that mutations in the *MECP2* gene cause Rett syndrome, an autism-related neurodevelopmental disorder. This breakthrough transformed Rett syndrome from an enigmatic clinical condition into a foundational model for understanding autism genetics and neurobiology. Her work established core principles that have guided modern autism research; these principles now underpin contemporary large-scale genomic studies of autism and have shaped how investigators conceptualize risk, penetrance, and phenotypic variability across neurodevelopmental disorders. > *“I am deeply honored to receive the inaugural Nancy Lurie Marks Prize for Autism Research,” said Zoghbi. “Nancy’s dedication to autism research and to the families she so passionately championed has left an indelible mark on our field. The Lurie Autism Institute’s continued commitment to advancing impactful autism research benefits us all. I share this recognition with the patients and families who inspire our work every day, and with the remarkable trainees and collaborators whose insight, creativity, and dedication have advanced our understanding of how genetic disruptions alter brain function.” She continued, “I hope that continued progress in this field will lead to better insights and treatments, ultimately improving the lives of individuals with autism and their families. This honor serves as a powerful reminder of the promise rigorous science holds for truly transforming lives.”* By demonstrating that *de novo* mutations underlie Rett syndrome, Dr. Zoghbi helped catalyze study designs that enrich for *de novo* variation. These studies served as an important basis for projects such as the Simons Simplex Collection, a core project and resource of the Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative (SFARI) that establishes a permanent repository of genetic samples of families of children with autism. This framework was then later adopted by the Simons Foundation Powering Autism Research for Knowledge (SPARK) and the Autism Sequencing Consortium. This paradigm led to the discovery of dozens of *de novo* variants and hundreds of autism-related genes, many of which encode chromatin regulators, firmly establishing epigenetic and chromatin-mediated mechanisms as central pathways in autism. > *“Dr. Zoghbi’s incredible discoveries of some key biological mechanisms underlying autism are important steps in the journey we’re on with the Lurie Autism Institute to provide patients with more answers,” said Daniel Rader, MD, Interim Director, Lurie Autism Institute and Chief of Translational Medicine and Human Genetics, Penn Medicine and CHOP. “Her central role in advancing our understanding of neurobiology and translating that basic science into clinical progress makes her an extremely deserving recipient of the inaugural Nancy Lurie Marks Prize for Autism Research.”* The Nancy Lurie Marks Prize for Autism Research honors the legacy of Nancy Lurie Marks, whose visionary philanthropy has played a pivotal role in advancing autism research and improving the lives of individuals with autism. The Prize includes a $100,000 award and recognizes a single individual whose work has made a profound and lasting impact on the field. > *“The Lurie Autism Institute was established to usher in a new era of scientific discovery in autism, and the work of extraordinary talents like Dr. Zoghbi exemplifies the kind of breakthrough discoveries we hope to make possible,” said Jeffrey Lurie, Chairman and CEO of the Philadelphia Eagles and founder of the Eagles Autism Foundation.* Zoghbi will be formally honored at the 2026 Lurie Autism Institute Symposium, to be held on May 7, 2026, in Philadelphia, where she will deliver a featured lecture. The Lurie Autism Institute, which reflects the combined strength of Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and Penn Medicine, was made possible through the generosity of the Lurie Family Foundation and the Nancy Lurie Marks Family Foundation. Launched in June, 2025, the Institute is dedicated to advancing autism science and care, while aiming to accelerate discovery, deepen understanding of autism’s complexities and improve outcomes for individuals and families.

Led by Elena Grigorenko, the Hugh Roy and Lillie Cranz Cullen Distinguished Professor of Psychology, and research professor Jack Fletcher, the project will follow 3,600 children ages 18 to 24 months to better understand how language skills emerge during this early stage and why some children experience delays that can shape later development. The NIH funding will support a new national Clinical Research Center on Developmental Language Disorders at UH, bringing together experts from psychology, education, health and measurement sciences to study one of the most fundamental questions in human development: how children learn language. This will be the 14th national research center established at UH. **How the Study Will Work** To recruit participants, the research team will partner with the pediatric clinic network at Texas Children’s Hospital, one of the largest in the region. Children will be screened for early language development, allowing researchers to identify those who show signs of delayed speech. From that group, the team will follow a cohort of about 2,400 children — including both late talkers and children with typical language development — through early childhood to examine how language abilities evolve over time and how early delays may lead to later challenges. “This will be the first national study to estimate how common late talking is using a large, representative sample of Houston toddlers,” Grigorenko said. “By following these children as they grow, we hope to better understand the developmental pathways that can lead to conditions such as developmental language disorder and autism.” **The Houston Community as a Partner in Discovery** Houston’s linguistic and cultural diversity makes it an ideal setting for this work. The study will include children from a wide range of backgrounds who speak English, Spanish or both, enabling researchers to examine how early communication develops across different home environments and socioeconomic contexts. “This level of investment from the National Institutes of Health reflects the significance of this work to address a complex challenge affecting children, families and communities,” said Claudia Neuhauser, vice president for research at UH. “By bringing together experts from multiple disciplines and partnering with major health systems across the region, the project reflects our commitment to advancing discoveries that impact our community.” This research center brings together investigators from multiple UH colleges and departments, along with partners at Baylor College of Medicine and the Texas Center for Learning Disorders. The work also aligns closely with the mission of the Consortium for Translational and Precision Health — a partnership led by Baylor College of Medicine and the University of Houston to accelerate the translation of research into practical health solutions. “By studying early language development in Houston toddlers, we’re building the knowledge needed to identify developmental challenges sooner and support children at the earliest possible stages,” Grigorenko said.

Markets remain focused on risks to flows through key transit routes, following attacks on commercial vessels and heightened uncertainty around regional energy infrastructure, even as major economies discuss or approve strategic reserve releases. Higher oil prices are feeding into inflation concerns globally, prompting markets to reassess the outlook for U.S. monetary policy. U.S. Treasury yields have moved higher in recent sessions, supporting the dollar and creating broader headwinds for risk-sensitive emerging market currencies, including across Latin America. For oil-exporting economies, however, the picture is more nuanced. Countries such as Brazil and Colombia can benefit from improved terms of trade and stronger commodity-linked revenues, which may help partially offset broader risk-off pressure. In Brazil, elevated energy prices also add to inflation risks and could encourage a more cautious approach to easing, while in Colombia higher crude prices can provide a supportive backdrop via export revenues.” - **Thadeu Dos Santos, Regional Director at Ifinox** [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Reebok Expands Football Roster with Signing of Elite European Defender Trevoh Chalobah](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/reebok-expands-football-roster-with-signing-of-elite-european-defender-trevoh-chalobah/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** New York, NY and London, UK – March 12 – Reebok, the iconic and irreverent sports culture brand, today announced a partnership with professional footballer Trevoh Chalobah, further strengthening the brand’s commitment to the global game.

Every rug carries the patience, skill, and artistic intuition of the people who created it.” Nimrit Khanna, Founder, Man Made Rugs In contemporary interiors, where authenticity and individuality are increasingly valued, handmade carpets have re-emerged as powerful design statements. Beyond their decorative function, these rugs represent a rare intersection of art, heritage, and human craftsmanship. Each piece carries a narrative shaped by time, skill, and the quiet discipline of artisans working patiently on traditional looms. For designers and collectors alike, the appeal of handmade carpets lies in this depth. Unlike machine made textiles, which prioritise uniformity and speed, handmade rugs are shaped slowly, knot by knot, through a process that honours both material and maker. The making of a handmade rug begins long before the loom is set. Designers first translate creative ideas into intricate graph maps that guide the weaving process. These visual blueprints allow artisans to interpret patterns, colours, and textures with remarkable precision. Once weaving begins, the rhythm of the loom takes over. Each knot is tied individually by hand, often resulting in hundreds of thousands of knots within a single rug. The process demands focus, patience, and a deep understanding of balance and proportion. What emerges from this labour intensive technique is not just a floor covering but a textile artwork. Because every rug is shaped by human hands, subtle variations naturally occur in colour tone, texture, and knot density. These nuances give handmade carpets their character, ensuring that no two pieces are ever identical. The Many Hands Behind a Single Rug Few objects in contemporary interiors involve as many specialised stages of craftsmanship as a handmade carpet. From the careful selection of wool or silk to spinning, dyeing, graph making, knotting, washing, carving, stretching, and finishing, the journey of a rug involves numerous processes and skilled artisans. Each stage requires a different expertise. Dye masters must achieve colour consistency across fibres. Weavers translate design graphs into precise knotting patterns. Finishers refine the surface through washing, carving, and stretching to reveal the depth of the design. The final piece is the result of an intricate collaboration, often involving dozens of artisans working across multiple stages of production. What ultimately reaches a home or design studio is therefore not just a finished object but a collective expression of craftsmanship. A Craft Preserved Through Generations The tradition of handmade weaving is deeply rooted in cultural heritage. In many weaving communities, the craft is passed down through generations, with younger artisans learning techniques from parents and elders. Mastering the art of weaving requires years of experience. Precision knotting, silk inlay work, and intricate finishing techniques are skills that evolve over time through practice and mentorship. This generational transfer of knowledge ensures that the craft continues to thrive while maintaining its authenticity. For contemporary brands working within this ecosystem, preserving these traditions is not simply about production. It is about sustaining a living craft. The Enduring Value of Handmade “As designers and homeowners become more conscious about what they bring into their spaces, there is a growing appreciation for objects that carry meaning and craftsmanship,” says Nimrit Khanna. “A handmade rug is not just décor. It is a piece shaped by many skilled hands and generations of knowledge.” This depth of artistry is precisely what gives handmade carpets their lasting value. In interiors that increasingly celebrate individuality and storytelling, these rugs offer both visual impact and cultural significance. Long after trends shift, a handmade carpet continues to hold its place within a space. Woven patiently by artisans and shaped through generations of skill, it stands as a quiet reminder that some of the most remarkable design objects are those created slowly, by hand.

This marked the first classical dance enactment centered on Kadambari Devi, Tagore’s enigmatic sister-in-law and muse. ![Kadambari: The Poet’s Muse, on the sister-in-law of Tagore by Shovana’s ASAVARI Repertory on March 18th, 2026 at Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/wxeiupvc2b.jpeg) Shovana’s deep-rooted connection to Tagore’s world stemmed from her birth in Calcutta, in the home of Sarla Devi Chaudhurani—daughter of Tagore’s sister, Swarna Kumari Devi. Her mother, Lalita Narayan’s devotion to Rabindra Sangeet, Hindustani classical music, Indian philosophy, and ancient Sanskrit and Hindi literature imprinted these songs in her subconscious. This heritage evolved through performances, including a 1980s rendition of *Nritertale Tale* with Mukul Mukherjee at London’s Sanskritik Festival of Arts of India, followed by dance interpretations of Tagore’s short stories. This longstanding affinity sparked a profound fascination with Kadambari’s mysterious influence on the visionary poet, inspiring the production. Lacking a pre-existing script, Shovana drew from extensive research: Tagore’s writings, scholarly articles, Prof. Aruna Chakravarti’s expertise (including scenes from her novel *Jorasanko*), Dr. Minoti Chatterjee’s insights, theatre artist Averee Chourey’s contributions, and scriptwriter Zakia Zaheer’s evocative penning. The final script emerged from this collaborative effort, with Reba Som graciously providing the title. ![Kadambari: The Poet’s Muse, on the sister-in-law of Tagore by Shovana’s ASAVARI Repertory on March 18th, 2026 at Kamani Auditorium, New Delhi](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/9w6c8wggwc.jpeg) Rooted in Kathak idiom, the production preserved Tagore’s musical spirit through Rabindra Sangeet compositions, ensuring authenticity in dance pieces. Simplistic, suggestive sets and costumes evoked Kadambari’s poignant life mood and tenor. **Life and Experiences of KADAMBARI:** Kadambari was born on July 5, 1859, in Kolkata, and married Jyotirindranath Tagore at nine, entering a formally progressive yet emotionally distant, childless marriage that left her feeling neglected and ridiculed. Though he arranged her education, his frequent absences and preoccupations with estates and theatre deepened her loneliness. She later described the marriage as a loveless sham, with a final rupture when he failed to accompany her to the inauguration of his new steamer. Close in age to Rabindranath, she became his playmate, caregiver after his mother’s death, and exacting literary muse, offering feedback on his early writings while they exchanged pet names—he called her “Hecate,” she called him “Bhanu.” The accidental death of little Urmila, on whom she had lavished her thwarted maternal affection, intensified her grief and the blame she faced from Tagore women, feeding chronic depression and emotional seclusion. In this fragile state, family mockery over infertility, a discovered love letter of her husband, his continued absences, and finally Robi’s 1883 marriage compounded her sense of abandonment. A few months later, on 21 April 1884, Kadambari died by suicide, an act surrounded by family silence and later speculation about her emotional isolation. Her death devastated Rabindranath, who dedicated poems and songs to her memory and later wrote of a beloved “Queen” whose loss shut the inner chamber of beauty in his world yet paradoxically opened him to a profound sense of liberating pain. In a letter, he is said to have written: *‘She, my Queen, has died and my world has shut against the door of its inner apartment of beauty which gives the real taste of freedom.’* [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** entertainment --- ### [BIScience Launches TV Intelligence Suite, Expanding AdClarity Into Cross-Media Ad Coverage](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/biscience-launches-tv-intelligence-suite-expanding-adclarity-into-cross-media-ad-coverage/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** *With linear TV data now live alongside digital and CTV, the born-digital platform tracks more than $174 billion in U.S. digital ad spend and $51 billion in U.S. linear TV spend from a single cross-media view* **New York, NY — March 12 —** BIScience, the company behind AdClarity, the world’s leading AI-driven ad intelligence platform, today announced the launch of its TV Intelligence Suite, bringing U.S. linear TV coverage into AdClarity’s existing digital, social, video, and CTV capabilities. The platform now delivers cross-media intelligence using one consistent methodology and consistent performance metrics. Most legacy ad intelligence providers were built around linear TV and have gradually expanded into digital. AdClarity took the opposite path: born digital, the platform built best-in-class digital coverage before adding television, addressing a need that has intensified since digital ad spend surpassed linear TV around 2019. ![BIScience Launches TV Intelligence Suite, Expanding AdClarity Into Cross-Media Ad Coverage](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7ptph1s1j4.jpg) As advertising budgets continue migrating from linear television to digital channels, organizations that lack cross-media visibility cannot determine whether they are overspending or underspending relative to the market. For senior marketing leaders, media planners, analysts, and operations teams, this gap creates significant operational overhead and an inability to set strategy with confidence. AdClarity covers more than 250 leading categories and industries in the U.S., including top spending sectors such as CPG, financial services, news and media, technology, and others. According to AdClarity data, total tracked U.S. digital advertising spend reached $174.4 billion in 2025, up 5.5 percent year over year, with CTV the fastest-growing channel at $38 billion (up 8.1 percent). Adding approximately $51 billion in U.S. linear television spend gives customers visibility into how budgets shift across the full media mix. AdClarity’s Linear TV coverage spans more than 100 U.S. networks and local affiliates, including ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, and leading cable, news, and sports channels, with breakdowns by Designated Market Area (DMA), daypart, program, and creative execution. By pairing DMA-specific digital insights with local TV data, the platform delivers what BIScience describes as the most granular picture of U.S. local advertising available. The platform is powered by AdClarity’s proprietary data infrastructure, spanning 52 global markets and 30 million opt-in panelists. Data is updated daily, with point-in-time data available from 2018 onward. AdClarity offers capabilities no other solution provides, including real CTR analysis for each ad and campaign and Ad Objective attribution that classifies ads as performance or brand awareness. The platform also provides DMA-level spend analysis and AI-driven insights with a chatbot for automated competitive and media mix analysis. “Until now, understanding where advertising budgets are moving between digital and television required stitching together disconnected tools with incompatible metrics,” said Dorit Kaplan, VP Product and Strategy at BIScience. “With the TV Intelligence Suite, AdClarity delivers what the market has been waiting for: a single cross-media view, built on consistent methodology, that enables teams to see the complete picture and make decisions with confidence. Our digital-first foundation gives us a distinct advantage as we bring every major advertising channel into one platform.” AdClarity serves more than 2,000 customers worldwide, including 27% of the Fortune 500. The platform is used by global brands such as Adidas, Amazon, Booking.com, Disney, Shell, Sony, and Wix, and is trusted by partners including Nielsen, Kantar, WPP, and MediaRadar. The TV Intelligence Suite is available now for enterprise customers in the United States. CTV coverage is currently available in the U.S., Germany, Canada, the U.K., and Australia.

Not Necessarily](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/knee-pain-as-you-age-not-necessarily/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** When Steve Messier started researching how to best treat pain caused by knee osteoarthritis, there was no cure for the debilitating condition. More than 30 years later, that’s still the case—so the biomechanics expert and professor of Health and Exercise Science at Wake Forest University wants to prevent it. Through a series of clinical studies, Messier’s team has confirmed that exercise reduces pain and improves function in older adults with knee osteoarthritis (OA). They have found that weight loss plus exercise can reduce pain better than diet or exercise alone. Now, [The Osteoarthritis Prevention Study(opens in a new tab)](https://news.wfu.edu/2024/02/26/can-weight-loss-and-exercise-help-women-stave-off-osteoarthritis/) (TOPS), with $17.1 million in funding, will determine if the same treatments can help women at risk avoid developing knee OA. ## What is knee OA and why do you study it? Knee osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease where joint cartilage breaks down and is accompanied by inflammation of the joint’s soft tissue, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. There are two pathways to knee osteoarthritis: One is an increase in load on the joint, and the other is inflammation. Obesity, which is a major risk factor for osteoarthritis, impacts both of these pathways. Obesity increases the load on the joint, and the excessive fat that accompanies obesity includes pro-inflammatory cytokines that increase joint inflammation. Osteoarthritis is the leading cause of disability in adults. It affects an estimated 50 million people in the U.S. Risk factors for developing knee osteoarthritis include injury, being overweight, and being female. Approximately seventy percent of the people who have knee osteoarthritis are female. As we age, there’s also an increased risk of developing osteoarthritis. My first grant from the National Institutes of Health was determining the causes of overuse injuries and runners. We tested 300 runners in that study. The very last person that came in happened to be a fellow in rheumatology, a young researcher and physician, and he asked me if I had thought about doing this work with older people with arthritis. So we did a little study, it got published right away, and it changed my life. ## What has your study of knee OA found? We’ve had a number of clinical trials over the last three decades. In the beginning, we tried to see if exercise was better than no exercise in reducing knee pain. That first study was called the Fitness Arthritis and Seniors Trial. In the late 1980s, many physicians who treated people with knee osteoarthritis would tell people to take it easy, don’t hurt yourself. It made sense, that if moving hurts you should stop moving. But it was the worst advice you could give someone with knee osteoarthritis. However we didn’t know it at the time. In FAST, we showed that both walking and [strength training(opens in a new tab)](https://news.wfu.edu/2012/07/16/strength-training-to-reduce-knee-pain/) were superior to a control group in reducing pain, improving function and quality of life. This groundbreaking work, led by the late Dr. Walter Ettinger and Dr. William Applegate, was the beginning of decades of research on reducing pain and improving function through exercise and diet. Over half the people that participated in FAST were overweight or had obesity. We thought, maybe if we combine diet with exercise, we’d have a better impact on reducing pain. In the [ADAPT study(opens in a new tab)](https://news.wfu.edu/2005/07/06/wfu-study-moderate-weight-loss-takes-major-pressure-off-the-knee/), we compared the effect of a 5% weight loss plus exercise, either separately or in combination, to a control group. Sure enough, the diet plus exercise group overwhelmed the other groups in reducing pain and improving function. After that study we thought that If a little weight loss is good, maybe twice as much may be even better. So we did the next study, which examined the effect of [10% weight loss(opens in a new tab)](https://news.wfu.edu/2018/06/18/when-it-comes-to-weight-loss-in-overweight-and-obese-adults-with-knee-osteoarthritis-more-is-better/) plus exercise. The people in the 10% weight loss plus exercise group had twice the improvement as people in the previous study who had a 5% weight loss. NIH recommends 10% weight loss as the gold standard now. All of that work has been great. But you know what? At the end of each study, the participants still had osteoarthritis. They felt better, they reduced their pain, they improved their function, and their quality of life was better. But they still had osteoarthritis. Unfortunately, there is currently no cure for osteoarthritis. So we started thinking, maybe prevention is better than treatment. And that’s what The Osteoarthritis Prevention Study or TOPS is all about. ## Tell us about TOPS. We have four clinical sites internationally, one in Boston at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, one in Chapel Hill at the University of North Carolina, one here at Wake Forest, and one in Sydney, Australia. We’re recruiting people who are at risk for having knee osteoarthritis but don’t have it yet—that is, women 50 years old or older who have obesity. We are recruiting 1,230 people, and they go through X-rays and MRIs. Eligible women have at least one knee that does not have osteoarthritis. Half of those women will be randomized to a diet and exercise group, and the other half will be in a healthy lifestyle group. We’re predicting at least 30% fewer people in the diet plus exercise group will have knees that progress to osteoarthritis within four years compared to the control group. ## This study is as much about behavioral change as it is about diet and exercise, right? A big part of our intervention is behavioral or psychological, to increase participants’ self-efficacy, the belief that you can really do something. In this case, it’s the belief that you can lose the weight and keep it off. We can get people to lose weight pretty easily. It’s the keeping it off part that becomes really difficult. I’ve had people stand up in a meeting at the end of their intervention with us and say, why didn’t my doctor tell me I just needed some help? We’re there for them on this journey to a healthier lifestyle as much as they need. It’s the emphasis on behavioral change that often separates us from other trials. When we recruit people to be in the study, we recruit them in waves. So women in each wave will be together in this weight loss journey, and it’s this group dynamic that I think is really important. They actually motivate each other. We even allow spouses to accompany their wives during the trial. They are not officially part of the study, but they may join their spouse during the exercise sessions. It’s really helpful for the spouse that is in the study to have that emotional support. ## How is this research changing people’s lives? Osteoarthritis has been thought of for many, many years as inevitable: As I get older, I’m going to get osteoarthritis. Well, maybe that’s not true. Maybe you can do things, reduce your weight, exercise, improve the quality of your life, live a healthier lifestyle, and maybe not get osteoarthritis at all. We’re trying to prove that. The major symptom of osteoarthritis is pain. Pain can govern your life. The pain changes your lifestyle, makes it more narrow. We try to expand their lifestyle again so they can play with their grandkids, get in and out of a car, go up to the second and third floors of their home. People with knee osteoarthritis have narrowed their lives because of the pain associated with the disease. If we can reduce that pain, we can give them a lot of their life back. So what’s next? The real key here is something called implementation science, taking what we know works and getting it into healthcare systems.

The study, [available here](https://tracking.us.nylas.com/l/4a0f9195ad004f15a15696ebdd775a2a/2/a4ebc695229792e3742b4b292ac456d266c3cac042b5a973c794d332c90782e9?cache_buster=1773321637), found that a composite organization representative of interviewed customers using the AppViewX platform achieved: - 302% return on investment (ROI) - $3.9 million in total three-year, risk-adjusted benefits - $2.4 million reduction in certificate-related incident costs (three-year, risk-adjusted present value) - Less than six months payback “There were 15 major outages the year before, which dropped to three the next year after implementing AppViewX. In fact, these three outages were caused by certificates that we had decided not to migrate to AppViewX,” said a Senior Vice President of Data Protection at a financial services organization interviewed for the study. As certificate lifespans compress and renewal frequency increases, the study highlights the operational risk of manual processes and fragmented tooling. Forrester found that manual certificate renewals required approximately 30 minutes per certificate, while automated renewals through AppViewX reduced that effort to approximately 0.25 minutes. “The March 15 milestone signals more than a compliance change, it marks the beginning of a structural workload shift,” said Stephen Tarleton, Chief Operations Officer at AppViewX. “As validity periods shrink, renewal frequency accelerates and fundamentally changes the operating model for certificate management. Without centralized automation, enterprises risk diverting skilled engineers from higher-value security initiatives just to prevent certificate expirations.” **Operational Impact of Shorter Validity Periods** Under the CA/Browser Forum’s phased reduction schedule, certificate lifespans will continue to shorten in stages, increasing renewal frequency across hybrid, cloud, and machine identity environments. The Forrester study found that enterprises adopting centralized lifecycle automation materially reduced both the frequency and cost of certificate-related incidents while scaling certificate management without proportional staffing increases. Organizations that adopt modern certificate lifecycle management benefit from: - Greater protection against certificate-related outages - Faster mean time to resolution - Reduced application deployment cycles - Improved audit and regulatory compliance To address this complexity, the AppViewX platform centralizes and automates certificate lifecycle management through: - Automated certificate discovery and inventory - Policy-driven renewal and re-enrollment workflows - Centralized governance and compliance reporting - API-driven integration with DevOps and infrastructure pipelines **See 47-Day Readiness at RSA Conference 2026** AppViewX will demonstrate how enterprises are preparing for accelerated certificate renewal cycles at RSA Conference 2026, North Expo Booth #4236. Attendees can see how centralized lifecycle automation reduces renewal effort, mitigates outage risk, and strengthens governance as validity periods shrink.

This monkey, one of the oldest known ancestors of the modern howler monkey, started eating leaves, causing them to evolve a larger body size and differentiate themselves from other primates, says a team of researchers led by a scientist at Johns Hopkins Medicine. “Before the discovery of Stirtonia, we didn’t have any evidence of leaf consumption in South American primates,” **says Siobhán Cooke, MPhil, Ph.D**., associate professor in the Center for Functional Anatomy and Evolution at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. “This can help us answer important questions about ecological evolution in one of the most biodiverse areas of the planet. What new things were occurring in the development of the proto-Amazonian rainforest when these monkeys were alive?” A report of the findings, led by Cooke, was published March 2 in PaleoAnthropology. In the paper, scientists analyzed two mandible fossils from the Stirtonia victoriae species, an ancient relative of the modern howler monkey. The findings pinpoint a timeframe for the monkey’s leaf-eating ability, expanding its diet beyond fruit, letting them grow larger in size and easing up competition for food among these ancient howler monkeys and other species of primates, say the researchers. Cooke’s collaborators, brothers Andrés and Rubén Vanegas, who lead a paleontological museum in Colombia, South America, first uncovered the specimens in 2016 from a fossil-rich site known as La Venta, in the Tatacoa desert of Colombia. In a prior study published in 2024, a team of researchers including Cooke analyzed the fossil of a terror bird found in the same desert. Millions of years ago, the ancient monkeys climbed from tree to tree in what is now the Tatacoa desert, but which was once full of swampy grass, forests and riverbanks, Cooke says. They lived among the Amazon basin’s long-extinct fauna, among them giant sloths and huge armored armadillos. Previously, researchers had few other fossil finds from Stirtonia victoriae to learn from, relying only on a few fragments of bone from their face and head, Cooke says. In addition to providing key information about biodiversity, diet and body size of these monkeys, the most recent discoveries may also reveal when the howler monkey acquired its eponymous “howl” as the loudest land mammal. “The jaw had a wide, deep mandibular body, which may have allowed for the hyoid neck bone to balloon the same way as modern howler monkeys, resulting in their iconic call,” Cooke says. “However, we cannot be certain that they engaged in this behavior.” **Finding an ecological niche** Led by Cooke, the team of scientists scanned the jaw fossils and created a 3D model of the bones to analyze them. From the structure of the lower molars, the researchers can determine what *Stirtonia victoriae* ate, how large they were and how this species differentiated themselves from the other primate families living as the Amazonian basin was forming. Cooke worked with collaborator Ryan Knigge, a researcher at University of Minnesota Medical School, who created a dataset of information on the jaws of platyrrhines (monkeys that live in South America, Central America and Mexico). With this information, scientists compared the *Stirtonia victoriae* fossils to 3D model jaws of other South American primates that lived during that time, including the smaller *Stirtonia tatacoensis* species, another howler monkey ancestor. The scientists also took a close look at the jaws of modern howler monkeys and their close-living ancestors, including rainforest-dwelling spider monkeys and woolly monkeys. Like modern howler monkeys, *Stirtonia victoriae* had relatively large molars with protrusions that act as “shears” when they grind against one another to help break down carbohydrates, which are adaptations scientists typically see in leaf-eating primates, Cooke says. The researchers also reconstructed the body mass of Stirtonia victoriae and determined that these monkeys weighed between 17 and 22 pounds, Cooke says. “Prior to this, the South American monkeys we have in the fossil record are much smaller,” **Cooke says.** “This tells us that these monkeys had a plentiful food source, mainly leaves, that allowed them for the first time to evolve and occupy an ecological niche that allows for larger body mass.” Stirtonia victoriae marks the very beginning of a large, diverse group of primates in South America, Cooke says. “Now, we can begin to pinpoint when different modern lineages started to evolve,” she says. In addition to Cooke, Knigge and Andrés Vanegas, other researchers include Savannah Cobb from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Melissa Tallman from the NYCEP Morphometrics Group, Laura Stroik from Grand Valley State University, Brian Shearer from University of California, San Francisco, Stephanie Palmer from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, Zana Sims from University of Minnesota, and Luis Ortiz-Pabón and Andrés Link From Universidad de los Andes.

Their 2D nature gives them many advantageous properties, whether in terms of electrical conductivity or mechanical robustness, and it can lead to special quantum effects. The best-known two-dimensional material is graphene, a form of carbon. But it is not the only one. The rising stars in the 2D sky are called MXenes (pronounced “maxenes”). Unlike graphene, which consists only of carbon atoms, MXenes can contain one or more transition metals in combination with nitrogen or carbon. They are produced from so-called MAX phases: ceramic crystals with a layered structure – “a little like a lasagna,” compares Empa researcher Jakob Heier. The intermediate layers are etched out by adding acid. The remaining layers, which are no longer chemically bonded to each other, are separated from each other in an ultrasonic bath, and the MXenes are ready to go. This novel class of materials is particularly interesting for research because: “The MAX phases can consist of many different elements and combinations thereof, allowing us to produce tailor-made MXenes for numerous applications,” explains Heier. However, as of yet, these potential all-rounders, which were only discovered around 15 years ago, are neither widely used nor well understood. A research initiative at Empa led by Jakob Heier aims to change that. ### Interdisciplinary perspective The corresponding research initiative, TailorX, is a so-called research booster in which several research groups within Empa work together to thoroughly examine an emerging topic over a period of two years and establish it as a research activity. Scientists from four different Empa laboratories are working on MXenes: Functional Polymers, to which Jakob Heier is associated, High-Performance Ceramics, Building Energy Materials and Components, and nanotech@surfaces. The comprehensive approach is worthwhile because, as Heier explains, “We cover the entire spectrum, from basic research and modeling to the production of MAX phases and MXenes, right through to their applications. It is one of Empa’s great strengths that all these areas of expertise are brought together in a single institute.” The project was launched in 2024 and is now drawing to a close. The co-initiators are satisfied with the results. “We now have a large portfolio of different MAX phases that we can synthesize with a high degree of purity,” says Michael Stuer from the High-Performance Ceramics laboratory. Synthesizing the precursor crystals is not entirely straightforward – it is not enough to simply mix the desired elements in the right proportions. “By gaining a better understanding of the synthesis process, we were able to synthesize numerous MAX phases with various degrees of chemical complexity that are not yet available on the market,” explains Stuer. ### Capturing CO₂ and treating cancer The synthesis experts received support from the nanotech@surfaces laboratory, whose researchers have developed various AI models for MAX phases and MXenes. These models enable the synthesis of the phases and their individual geometry to be predicted and understood. However, modeling is also central to the application of MXenes. “We are currently developing a model that describes the interaction of MXenes with CO₂,” says nanotech@surfaces researcher Cesare Roncaglia. The absorption and conversion of carbon dioxide is a key focus among the potential applications for MXenes. Thanks to their large surface area, these 2D materials have the potential to capture CO₂ from the air – and also help convert it into usable raw materials, in line with Empa’s large-scale research initiative Mining the Atmosphere. However, this does not exhaust the MXenes’ potential. The versatile 2D nanoparticles could also be used in broader catalysis, energy storage, or sensor technology. In medicine, certain MXenes promise antimicrobial effects or targeted cancer therapy. With this in mind, the project participants are working with researchers at Empa in St. Gallen to investigate their effects on living cells and the environment. ### Environmentally friendly and scalable Environmental compatibility is also a key consideration in the production of MXenes. Strongly corrosive acids are typically used to etch them from the MAX phases. This is not only dangerous for humans and harmful to the environment, but also costly. “The etching process is one of the reasons why only a few MXenes are commercially available,” says Shanyu Zhao from the Building Energy Materials and Components laboratory. In the TailorX project, he and his team not only worked on the applications and characterization of MXenes, but also developed an alternative “green method” for exfoliating them from the MAX phase. “Our approach avoids the use of the aggressive and hazardous hydrofluoric acid, and the entire process is more effective and gentle, making it both sustainable and scalable,” says Zhao. For the researchers, the conclusion of the Research Booster program is merely the beginning of their work with these versatile 2D materials. They have already launched further projects aimed at incorporating MXenes into a wide range of applications, such as high-performance supercapacitors, innovative batteries, electromagnetically insulating aerogels, and medical sensors. At the same time, basic research into this young class of materials is ongoing. “With their flexibility and adaptability, MXenes offer such great advantages that applications will not be long in coming,” summarizes Jakob Heier.

The common perception that withdrawing approximately 400 million barrels from global oil reserves will solve the crisis is beginning to erode. These volumes are more of a temporary painkiller to face a practical closure of the Strait; they are effective for a short window estimated to be around three weeks and do not offer a stability solution for the weeks ahead. **The Erosion of the Trump Put In Energy Markets** The market reassurances seen early this week through the bet on US administration intervention to stabilise oil supply seem to have exhausted their impact rapidly. The pricing of risks regarding navigation disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz has returned to dominate trading screens, revealing a fundamental divergence in perspectives -The Asian Perspective – This remains the most realistic and logical, given the direct repercussions of rising energy costs on their economies. – The American Perspective – This side is attempting to sort of downplay these risks, which has generated noticeable selling pressure recently in an effort to force a less intense price reality. **Brent Crude – The Return to Triple Digits** This time the situation looks entirely different in terms of standard price behavior. Weekly oil volatility has hit its highest historical level on a weekly timeframe since data collection began in the early 1980s. We have seen massive swings – a 20% surge, followed by another 20% rise, then sharp selling pressure of nearly 20%, only for prices to return to the $100 per barrel level in a very short period. This reflects a state of absolute uncertainty and a market that is purely headline-driven. **The Inflationary Pressure Returns** Looking at future economic projections, inflation is looming once again. Fears regarding energy inputs have returned to threaten global economies, including the U.S. economy. Following the stability of inflation rates at 2.4% since the start of the year, the current energy price shock threatens to drive these levels higher and derail easing plans. With Brent Crude returning to trade above the $100 threshold today, it is no longer easy to convince traders to abandon the part of risk premium. Markets are not longer trading on promises of reserve withdrawals or the resumption of movement in the Strait of Hormuz, instead, they are pricing in a complex and ongoing geopolitical reality.

The star, named Gaia20ehk, was about 11,000 light-years from Earth near the constellation Pupis. It was a stable “main sequence” star, much like our sun, which meant that it should emit steady, predictable light. Yet this star began to flicker wildly. “The star’s light output was nice and flat, but starting in 2016 it had these three dips in brightness. And then, right around 2021, it went completely bonkers,” **said Tzanidakis, a doctoral candidate in astronomy at the University of Washington.** “I can’t emphasize enough that stars like our sun don’t do that. So when we saw this one, we were like ‘Hello, what’s going on here?’’ The cause of the flickering had nothing to do with the star itself: Huge quantities of rocks and dust — seemingly from out of nowhere — were passing in front of the distant star as the material orbited the system, patchily dimming the light that reached Earth. The likely source of all that debris was even more remarkable: a catastrophic collision between two planets. “It’s incredible that various telescopes caught this impact in real time,” **Tzanidakis said. “**There are only a few other planetary collisions of any kind on record, and none that bear so many similarities to the impact that created the Earth and moon. If we can observe more moments like this elsewhere in the galaxy, it will teach us lots about the formation of our world.” The analysis of the star was published March 11 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters. Planets form when gravity forces together matter — dust, gas, ice or rocky debris, for example — orbiting a new star. Early solar systems are chaotic — planets routinely collide and explode or go flying off into outer space. Through this process, and over perhaps 100 million years, solar systems like ours winnow their planets down and settle into an equilibrium. As common as these collisions probably are, observing one in a distant solar system requires patience and luck. The orbits of the planets must take them directly between us and their star, so that the resulting debris obscures some of the star’s light. The telltale flicker then takes years to play out. “Andy’s unique work leverages decades of data to find things that are happening slowly — astronomy stories that play out over the course of a decade,” **said senior author James Davenport, a UW assistant research professor of astronomy. “**Not many researchers are looking for phenomena in this way, which means that all kinds of discoveries are potentially up for grabs.” Tzanidakis, the study’s lead author, studies extreme variability in stars over time. His previous work at the UW identified a system with a binary star and a large dust cloud that caused a seven-year eclipse. The behavior of Gaia20ehk, however, posed a new mystery. The star’s particular fluctuation — short dips in brightness and then chaos — had never before been observed. The team was stumped, until Davenport suggested that they use data from a different telescope to look for infrared light rather than visible light. “The infrared light curve was the complete opposite of the visible light,” **Tzanidakis said**. “As the visible light began to flicker and dim, the infrared light spiked. Which could mean that the material blocking the star is hot — so hot that it’s glowing in the infrared.” A cataclysmic collision between planets would certainly produce enough heat to explain the infrared energy. What’s more, the right kind of collision could also explain those initial dips in light. “That could be caused by the two planets spiraling closer and closer to each other,” Tzanidakis said. “At first, they had a series of grazing impacts, which wouldn’t produce a lot of infrared energy. Then, they had their big catastrophic collision, and the infrared really ramped up.” There are also clues that the collision resembles the one that created the Earth and moon about four and half billion years ago. The dust cloud is orbiting Gaia20ehk at roughly one astronomical unit, the same distance from the sun to the Earth. At that distance, the material could eventually cool down enough to solidify into something similar to our Earth-moon system. Scientists like Tzanidakis and Davenport can’t know for sure until the dust settles — literally — in the system. That could take a few years, or a few million. In the meantime, their discovery is a call to action to find more collisions. The powerful Simonyi Survey Telescope at the NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory will be well suited to the task when it begins its Legacy Survey of Space and Time later this year; some back-of-the-napkin math by Davenport suggests that Rubin could find 100 new impacts over the next 10 years. That could ultimately help narrow the search for habitable worlds outside our solar system. “How rare is the event that created the Earth and moon? That question is fundamental to astrobiology,” Davenport said. “It seems like the moon is one of the magical ingredients that makes the Earth a good place for life. It can help shield Earth from some asteroids, it produces ocean tides and weather that allow chemistry and biology to mix globally, and it may even play a role in driving tectonic plate activity. Right now, we don’t know how common these dynamics are. But if we catch more of these collisions, we’ll start to figure it out.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [EarthDaily Achieves CEOS-ARD Compliance, Validating Science-Grade Data Ahead of Constellation’s Commercial Launch](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/earthdaily-achieves-ceos-ard-compliance-validating-science-grade-data-ahead-of-constellations-commercial-launch/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** VANCOUVER, British Columbia and NEW YORK, March 12 — EarthDaily today announced that its data products have achieved **CEOS Analysis Ready Data (CEOS-ARD)** compliance, a globally recognized standard established by the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS). CEOS-ARD compliance confirms that EarthDaily data meet rigorous international requirements for radiometric calibration and geometric correction approaches, metadata completeness, and interoperability across time and datasets, enabling immediate quantitative analysis with minimal additional user processing. Importantly, EarthDaily achieved CEOS-ARD compliance prior to full commercial availability of its complete constellation, a rare milestone for a commercial Earth observation system. “This achievement validates the scientific foundation of our data,” said Don Osborne, Chief Executive Officer of EarthDaily. “We built the EarthDaily Constellation as a measurement system first. Daily coverage only matters if the data are stable, comparable, and trustworthy over time. CEOS-ARD compliance confirms we are delivering science-grade data at commercial scale.” CEOS Analysis Ready Data standards are important to science mission interoperability and include a range of public government missions, including Sentinel and Landsat products. The framework was developed to address a persistent challenge in Earth observation: as global data volumes grow, users often lack the infrastructure and expertise required to process raw imagery for scientific and operational applications. Systematic provision of CEOS-ARD reduces that burden and supports more effective decision-making. EarthDaily’s architecture was intentionally designed to ensure continuity with established scientific archives. Its radiometric calibration approach, spectral configuration, and geometric correction standards enable comparability and compatibility with Landsat and Sentinel data records. This design allows users to integrate EarthDaily data seamlessly into existing time-series analyses while benefiting from enhanced spectral diversity and daily revisit. Compliance signals that EarthDaily delivers: - Science-grade radiometric and geometric correction - Interoperable datasets structured for robust time-series analysis - Immediate usability for advanced analytics and AI workflows - Reduced preprocessing burden and improved analytical reliability The EarthDaily constellation was engineered around measurement integrity from inception. As highlighted in recent *SpaceNews* coverage examining the system’s development and on-orbit performance, the EarthDaily Constellation incorporates: - Rigorous radiometric calibration - Thermal characterization for spectral stability - Simultaneous collection across 22 spectral bands - Consistent local acquisition timing - Architecture aligned for interoperability with Landsat and Sentinel archives These design principles ensure that EarthDaily data is globally consistent and scientifically reliable for long-term change detection. With six additional satellites launching in May and continued expansion later this year, the EarthDaily Constellation will enter commercial operations in Summer 2026, delivering daily, consistent global coverage supported by CEOS-ARD compliant science-grade data. This milestone reinforces EarthDaily’s position as a commercial provider bridging scientific rigor with scalable, AI-ready Earth observation infrastructure.

Team members include LLNL researchers (l-r) Andre Goncalves, Priyadip Ray, Jose Cadena Pico and Braden Soper. Newswise — A Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)-led team of scientists and computational engineers has identified several existing medications that may be associated with longer survival in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), using one of the largest electronic health record datasets ever assembled for ALS. Published in *The Lancet Digital Health*, the study analyzed health records from more than 11,000 U.S. military veterans diagnosed with ALS between 2009 and 2019 and treated within the Veterans Health Administration. By combining causal-inference methods with machine learning (ML), researchers evaluated 162 medications to identify drugs prescribed for other conditions that were associated with meaningful differences in survival. The work was performed in collaboration with the Stanford University School of Medicine, the Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System (VA Palo Alto) and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). The timing of the study was driven by a rare convergence of data access and funding, said LLNL principal investigator Priyadip Ray, a research scientist in LLNL’s Computational Engineering Division (CED), Beginning in 2009, when ALS was formally recognized as a service-connected disease, the VA saw a sharp increase in veterans receiving ALS care, creating a decade-plus record of detailed treatment data within a single healthcare system. At the same time, new targeted funding programs made it possible to pursue ALS research at a scale that had historically been difficult for a rare disease. The work was also motivated by recent setbacks in ALS drug development. Early enthusiasm around the drug Relyvrio, approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2022, faded after a larger follow-up trial failed to show benefit and the drug was withdrawn from the market in 2024. That outcome underscored how difficult ALS clinical trials can be and helped spur interest in other discovery pathways. “We realized that the large amount of experience with treating ALS in the VA system could provide an alternative approach to identifying medications for the disease,” Ray said. Rather than relying on traditional machine learning approaches, the team focused on causal inference — a more demanding framework that aims to isolate potential treatment effects while accounting for bias, confounding factors and uneven treatment patterns in real-world data, researchers explained. “Our team developed a set of methods that combine rigorous statistical techniques with modern machine learning to isolate causal effects at the population level, even when data aren’t collected in a controlled way,” **said co-author Braden Soper, an LLNL data scientist.** The analysis identified 27 medications associated with statistically significant changes in mortality risk. Notably, multiple drugs within the same therapeutic classes — including statins, phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors and alpha-adrenergic antagonists — showed similar associations with prolonged survival. “Scientifically, what stood out was that there were multiple drugs in each of these groups that had the same positive effect,” Ray said. “This gave us a great deal of confidence in the relationship between slowing ALS progression and these drugs.” To explore why these drugs might influence disease progression, the team used PathFX, a protein–protein interaction modeling tool developed by collaborators at UCLA and Stanford. The network analysis suggested that several of the identified drugs converge on shared downstream protein pathways, pointing to possible common mechanisms and new molecular targets for ALS research. The work builds on LLNL’s broader investments in causal modeling, ML and computational tools for biomedical and national security applications. Ray emphasized that the findings do not prove clinical benefit but provide a strong foundation for next steps, including deeper modeling that accounts for time-varying health factors and validation in independent datasets that include more diverse civilian populations. “Because sensitive medical data are hard to share due to privacy and access restrictions, we’re working to release our software pipeline as open source so researchers anywhere can apply these tools to their own datasets, diseases and interventions,” added Soper. Co-authors on the study include Andre Goncalves and Jose Cadena Pico from LLNL’s CED; Amy Gryshuk (formerly of LLNL — now at the University of California, San Francisco’s Innovation Ventures); Richard Reimer and Thomas Osborne of the Stanford University School of Medicine and VA Palo Alto; Jennifer Wilson of UCLA; Paola Suarez of VA Palo Alto; and Kevin Grimes of the Stanford University School of Medicine.

Drawing on CRE Matrix transaction data, the report finds that buyers are no longer pricing just location; they are paying a measurable premium for newer layouts, modern amenities, and infrastructure-linked addresses, even within the same pin code. **Key Findings** ● Greater Mumbai’s new-home premium widened from ~5% in 2016 to 23% in 2025; average primary prices stand at ₹35,602 per sq. ft. ● Eastern Suburb’s premium surged from 2% to 30%, led by large integrated projects and redevelopment. ● Pune reversed from a -10% discount in 2016 to a +22% premium in 2025, its strongest post-COVID year with 62,677 units sold. ● Thane flipped from a -25% discount to an 8% new-launch premium as ring roads and Metro Line 4 expanded its footprint. ● 97% of Thane’s Q4 2025 launches came from 1/1.5 and 2/2.5 BHK units. ● Bhiwandi’s new-home premium jumped from 18% to 60%, driven by logistics-linked growth. ● Maharashtra’s housing cycles are fragmenting by micro-market and quality of stock — not moving in city-wide waves. **Greater Mumbai: Premium Keeps Widening** Greater Mumbai remains India’s most expensive housing market, with an average primary price of ₹35,602 per sq. ft. as of December 2025. The city-wide new-home premium has expanded from 5% in 2016 to 23% in 2025, a decisive shift reflecting buyer preference for modern towers with parking, security, and contemporary layouts over ageing secondary stock sharing the same address. In South Mumbai, the premium has risen from 24% to 46% as buyers pivot to high-rise towers offering bundled amenities. Eastern Suburb’’s 2% to 30% leap reflects large redevelopment projects along key corridors where older buildings simply cannot match new-build specifications. Even Western Suburbs, which once traded at near-parity, now show clear positive premiums as infra-linked clusters reset benchmarks. **Thane: Infrastructure Flips the Market** Thane is the clearest case study in how infrastructure quietly reprices an entire region. In 2016, new launches carried a -25% discount to resale; by 2025, the same region commands an 8% premium. Ring roads, the forthcoming Metro Line 4 corridor, and larger integrated townships have expanded Thane’s viable footprint, pulling buyers outward from the historic core toward infra-adjacent projects. Bhiwandi’s premium leap, 18% to 60%, reflects a logistics-driven re-rating. Thane City itself has moved from a -3% discount to a 31% premium as township living and better connectivity pull buyers outward. Nearly 97% of Q4 2025 launches in Thane came from 1/1.5 BHK and 2/2.5 BHK units, reflecting end-users upgrading from rented accommodation in Greater Mumbai. **Pune: From Discount to Premium — The Sharpest Reversal** Pune’s transformation is the most striking of the three markets because it starts from the opposite base. In 2016, several key sub-markets priced resales above new launches. By 2025, that equation has flipped citywide. With 48% of inventory less than five years old and 2.83 lakh units unsold, 2025 was Pune’s strongest post-COVID sales year. and new stock is where buyers are willing to pay a clear per sq. ft. premium. Pune Central’s premium has moved from 1% to 50%, as modern towers displace legacy buildings in established pin codes. Growth corridors, Hinjewadi, Wakad, Wagholi, North East, and South West sub-markets, have migrated from resale-friendly pricing to clear primary premiums as integrated townships and IT/industrial job hubs deliver on livability. For many working households, ‘Pune property’ now implies a growth-corridor address over an inner-city legacy building. **Purvang Mashru, Senior Quantitative Research Analyst, 1 Finance said,** “Post-COVID-19 pandemic, Maharashtra’s housing market is seeing a structural repricing. Earlier, the right pin code was enough; today buyers are paying a premium for product quality, new supply and connectivity. The gap between primary and resale stock in the same micro-market is now in double digits, making infrastructure-linked pockets far more decisive for both end-users and investors. As infrastructure reshapes commute maps across India, pricing power will increasingly be set by connectivity-led pockets and the new supply entering them.” **Conclusion** The research highlights a structural shift in Maharashtra’s housing market. Post-2021, buyer preference has moved toward premium housing. Across Mumbai, Pune, and Thane, new projects are gaining pricing power as demand rises for modern, infrastructure-linked developments, with housing trends increasingly shaped by micro-market dynamics and the quality of new supply.

What was once considered a luxury purchase reserved for occasional vacations is increasingly being viewed as a practical lifestyle choice and a strategic real estate investment. In recent years, India has recorded nearly **2.9 billion domestic tourist visits**, highlighting how travel has become deeply embedded in the country’s lifestyle economy. With Indians travelling more frequently—often multiple times a year—many leisure destinations are experiencing a shift from short-term tourism to longer stays. This change is gradually creating a natural link between tourism and property ownership, with holiday homes emerging as an attractive option for frequent travellers seeking comfort, privacy, and familiarity in their preferred destinations. According to **Mr. Sunil Sisodiya, Founder & CEO, Neworld Developers**, **the concept of holiday homes is evolving in line with changing travel behaviour.** “Urban Indians are increasingly opting for multiple shorter trips rather than a single long holiday each year. Weekend getaways, wellness retreats, workations, and cultural trips have become common. As people repeatedly visit the same destinations, owning a holiday home becomes both a lifestyle enhancement and a practical solution,” he said. The profile of holiday home buyers has also evolved. Today’s buyers typically include urban professionals, entrepreneurs, and globally mobile Indians who travel frequently and prefer flexible spaces that can serve multiple purposes. For many, a second home functions as a personal retreat, a remote work location enabled by hybrid work models, and a potential rental asset during peak tourist seasons. Industry estimates suggest that in several leisure-driven micro-markets, **second homes now account for nearly 15–20 percent of residential property transactions**, reflecting a shift toward more deliberate and utility-driven ownership patterns. Infrastructure development is another major factor contributing to the growth of this segment. Improved connectivity through new expressways, upgraded highways, and expanding regional aviation networks has significantly reduced travel time between metropolitan cities and nearby tourist destinations. Locations that once required long journeys are now accessible within a few hours, making them ideal for frequent weekend visits or extended stays. This improved accessibility has expanded the geography of the second-home market. Hill stations, coastal destinations, and heritage towns across multiple states are attracting growing interest from buyers seeking alternative living environments beyond crowded urban centres. Apart from lifestyle benefits, holiday homes are increasingly being viewed as a diversification strategy within real estate portfolios. In established leisure markets, professionally managed holiday homes can generate **gross rental yields of around 4–6 percent**, depending on location, property quality, and seasonal demand. While these returns may vary compared to commercial real estate investments, the combination of personal usage and rental income offers a unique value proposition for investors. Different tourism destinations also present varying investment dynamics. Hill destinations typically see strong seasonal demand but remain dependent on weather conditions and accessibility. Heritage cities attract cultural and pilgrimage tourism, providing steady visitor flows but often operating under stricter conservation regulations. Coastal destinations, meanwhile, benefit from longer tourism seasons and a diverse visitor base, allowing them to evolve into lifestyle residential ecosystems suitable for extended stays. Looking ahead, the future growth of India’s holiday home segment will depend on how effectively tourism destinations balance development with infrastructure readiness, environmental sustainability, and regulatory frameworks.

The prospect of prolonged tensions in the Middle East overshadowed the announcement of a coordinated release of strategic petroleum reserves by major economies, a move that had initially aimed to stabilize energy markets. Instead, the persistent rise in crude prices is reinforcing fears that inflationary pressures could remain elevated, affecting the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy outlook. As a result, expectations of interest rate cuts have moved toward only one reduction later this year, a shift that has pushed US Treasury yields higher across the curve, weighing on equities. While recent economic data continue to point to a resilient US economy, the near-term direction of equity markets is likely to remain dominated by geopolitical developments and energy prices. The latter could create some headwinds for the economy in case of prolonged disruptions in the Middle East. While energy and defense stocks could benefit from such conditions, concerns about inflation could continue to exert selling pressure on overall indices. Investors will also closely monitor upcoming US GDP and PCE inflation data, which may influence expectations for the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy trajectory.

Santosh Kumar, Senior Consultant Nephrologist, Kamineni Hospitals](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/protect-kidneys-through-early-awareness-dr-a-santosh-kumar-senior-consultant-nephrologist-kamineni-hospitals/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Protect Kidneys Through Early Awareness](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/5d3z2i48lg.jpeg) **Hyderabad, Mar 12th:** Nearly one in ten people across the world suffer from kidney-related ailments. In India, however, lack of awareness often leads to late detection of the disease, with many patients identifying the condition only after it has progressed to an advanced stage. Alarmingly, kidney problems are increasingly being observed even among younger individuals. To promote awareness on kidney health, World Kidney Day is observed globally on the second Thursday of March every year. On the occasion of World Kidney Day, people are encouraged to gain awareness and take preventive measures to safeguard kidney health. This year’s theme emphasises “Kidney Health for All – Caring for People, Protecting the Planet.” In this context, an awareness programme on kidney health was organised at Kamineni Hospitals, LB Nagar, on Thursday. Doctors from relevant departments highlighted the importance of prevention, early diagnosis, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to reduce the risk of kidney diseases. As part of the programme, around 30 individuals who had undergone dialysis treatment and kidney transplantation at Kamineni Hospitals and are now leading successful lives were invited to the event. They shared their personal experiences with the media, explaining how they overcame the disease through treatment and determination. The hospital management also honoured patients who have courageously battled kidney disease. Certificates titled “Youngest Fighter” were presented to individuals who faced kidney-related challenges at a young age and emerged stronger, while “Iron Will” certificates were awarded to senior patients who have shown remarkable resilience and determination in managing the condition and continuing to lead active lives. > Speaking on the occasion, **Dr. A. Santosh Kumar, Consultant Nephrologist and Transplant Physician at Kamineni Hospitals**, stressed the importance of early screening and timely diagnosis of kidney diseases. He advised that individuals experiencing symptoms related to kidney problems should undergo necessary medical tests without delay. “People should not panic and allow conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes to worsen the disease. With timely medical attention, many kidney-related issues can be effectively managed. Dialysis or kidney disease should not be seen as the end of life. With modern treatment options, including dialysis and transplantation, patients can continue to lead fulfilling lives,” he said. > > **Dr. V. Suryaprakash, Director of Urology, Senior Consultant Urologist, Transplant and Robotic Surgeon** at Kamineni Hospitals, highlighted that proper hydration is one of the simplest ways to maintain kidney health. “If the body is not adequately hydrated, it can lead to the formation of kidney stones. Drinking at least two to three litres of water daily helps flush out toxins from the body, reducing the burden on the kidneys and lowering the risk of stone formation,” he explained. He further noted that even in cases of kidney disease, patients need not panic, as advanced medical technologies have significantly improved treatment outcomes. “With the help of the latest Da Vinci robotic system, minimally invasive surgical techniques can now remove even highly complex kidney stones and tumours. These procedures are highly precise, involve minimal pain, and enable patients to return to their normal routine as early as the next day after surgery,” he added, emphasising that healthy lifestyle habits play a key role in protecting kidney health over the long term. The programme was attended by Dr. Anjaiah, Medical Superintendent, Dr. V. Vishnuvardhan Reddy, Senior Consultant Urologist, Laparoscopic and Transplant Surgeon; Dr. Saikanth Kumar, Consultant Nephrologist and Transplant Physician; Dr. Sandeep, Consultant Urologist, along with hospital staff.

The groundbreaking data demonstrated the test to be both prognostic for 10-year recurrence risk and predictive for radiation therapy benefit. “For decades, radiation decisions in early-stage invasive breast cancer have relied primarily on clinicopathologic features, which do not fully capture the biological behavior of an individual tumor,” said Dr. Naamit Gerber, Radiation Oncologist at NYU Langone Health’s Perlmutter Cancer Center and co-author of the study. “Aida™ is the first and only test designed to provide both prognostic assessment of locoregional recurrence risk and predictive insight into radiation therapy benefit. This type of biologic information has not previously been available to guide radiation decision-making and represents an important advancement toward truly personalized care.” In the published study, investigators evaluated 922 hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative invasive women treated with breast-conserving surgery, with and without adjuvant radiation therapy, across four academic and clinical centers in the United States and Sweden, with a median follow-up of 10 years. AidaBreast integrates targeted NextGen RNA expression with multiplex protein biomarker expression and spatial biology to provide insight into both recurrence risk and differential benefit from radiation therapy. > “The publication of this study represents an important milestone not only for Aida™, but for PreludeDx as a whole,” s**aid Dan Forche, President and CEO of PreludeDx**. “With DCISionRT transforming radiation decision-making in DCIS and AidaBreast extending biologic precision into early-stage invasive breast cancer, PreludeDx is uniquely positioned to lead the evolution of personalized radiation therapy decisions. Our portfolio reflects a long-term commitment to delivering clinically actionable biology across the continuum of early-stage breast cancer care.” **Key Findings from the Multi-Institutional Study** 1. The study demonstrates that the AidaBreast test may better inform individualized shared decision-making for radiation therapy treatment. 2. AidaBreast identified a low risk group of patients who did not have a statistically significant benefit from radiation therapy and a subset of patients who had a targeted and significant benefit from RT. 3. The test provided information not available from clinicopathology and may enable clinicians to escalate and de-escalate therapy based on molecular biology. “This publication validates the strength of our multi-omic platform,” said Troy Bremer, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of PreludeDx. “By integrating the multiplex platform and spatial biology, AidaBreast captures complementary dimensions of tumor biology that cannot be assessed through clinicopathologic features alone. The ability to provide both prognostic and predictive insight from a single assay reflects the next evolution of precision medicine in early-stage invasive breast cancer.” **Building on the Proven Impact of DCISionRT®** AidaBreast builds on PreludeDx’s leadership established with DCISionRT, the widely adopted test that transformed radiation therapy decision-making for women diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Together, DCISionRT and AidaBreast reflect PreludeDx’s strategy to provide biologically driven decision support tools across the spectrum of early-stage breast cancer. **Advancing Precision in Early-Stage Invasive Breast Cancer** As breast cancer care continues to shift toward personalization, multi-omic approaches that integrate personalized tumor biology may help better align treatment intensity with individual patient risk. Upon further validation, AidaBreast has the potential to support more informed, shared decision-making between physicians and patients regarding the use of radiation therapy.

However, growing concerns about environmental impact, increasing resistance, and long-term sustainability have intensified the search for safer alternatives. Biological pesticides offer clear advantages, yet many fail to perform consistently in the field, breaking down under strong sunlight or proving difficult to integrate with existing agricultural practices. At National Kaohsiung Normal University, researchers set out to address this gap by rethinking how biological crop-protection agents are developed. Rather than relying solely on laboratory screening, the team focused on microorganisms that have already adapted to demanding natural environments. Led by Professor Chien-Yan Hsieh, the researchers isolated a strain of *Bacillus amyloliquefaciens* from mud volcano environments in southern Taiwan—areas characterized by intense sunlight and chemically challenging conditions. These harsh environments act as a natural filter. Microorganisms that survive there must tolerate stresses similar to those encountered in open agricultural fields. The selected bacterium produces iturin A, a naturally occurring antifungal compound widely reported to be effective against plant diseases and to have low toxicity to humans and animals. While iturin A has been studied internationally for many years, producing it efficiently at scale and ensuring stability under real-world conditions have remained persistent challenges. To overcome these barriers, the research team optimized fermentation processes across both solid-state and submerged systems, improving production efficiency while incorporating agricultural by-products, such as rice bran, to support more sustainable manufacturing. The formulation was also designed to tolerate ultraviolet exposure and remain compatible with commonly used chemical pesticides, allowing farmers to integrate the biological product into existing pest management programs rather than replacing them entirely.

These wounds are painful, prone to infection, and frequently lead to prolonged hospitalization or even limb amputation. Despite advances in wound care, many existing treatments remain invasive, uncomfortable, or unsuitable for fragile tissue, underscoring the need for safer, more accessible solutions. Researchers at National Sun Yat-sen University have addressed this challenge by developing a large-area, low-temperature afterglow plasma medical device designed specifically for gentle wound healing. Unlike conventional approaches that rely on heat, lasers, or chemical agents, this system uses atmospheric-pressure afterglow plasma that operates below 40°C. The system allows the plasma to be applied directly to skin and open wounds without burning or damaging healthy tissue. The novelty of the device lies not only in its low operating temperature but also in how it delivers its therapeutic effects. When applied to a wound, the afterglow plasma generates short-lived reactive molecules that help suppress harmful bacteria while activating biological processes linked to tissue repair. This dual action: disinfection and healing stimulation, occurs without physical contact or invasive intervention, making the treatment particularly suitable for sensitive or hard-to-heal wounds. Another key advancement is the large treatment area and the device’s practical design. Many existing plasma systems are limited to small surface areas or require specialized infrastructure. In contrast, this device is designed to be compact, easy to operate, and capable of treating wider wound surfaces efficiently, with short treatment times. These features make it well-suited not only for hospitals, but also for clinics, long-term care facilities, and other care environments where complex equipment is impractical. Beyond wound healing, the same plasma technology has been extended to a low-temperature sterilization system for medical instruments, capable of achieving effective disinfection in under ten minutes without high heat or vacuum systems. Together, these developments demonstrate how advanced plasma science can be translated into practical healthcare tools that reduce treatment burden while improving patient safety and comfort.

Her selfless act of donating blood stem cells helped cure Anandu from life threatening blood disorder – severe aplastic anemia. At 15 years, Anandu was diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia when he was in 10th grade. He had been suffering from a persistent fever after getting a dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, which led to the diagnosis. Aplastic Anaemia is a life-threatening condition in which the bone marrow fails to produce enough new blood cells. His treating physician, **Dr.** **V P Krishnan, Consultant, Pediatric Hemato-oncology and BMT, MVR Cancer center and research institute, Kozhikode,** advised that he undergo a stem cell transplant as it was the only curative option, and hence began the search for a stem cell donor. During this tough time, Anandu’s family faced significant emotional and financial strain. Anandu also received support through the **DKMS Patient Funding Program India**, which provides partial financial assistance to eligible patients undergoing blood stem cell transplantation. Today, Anandu is leading a healthy life and appearing for his **12th board examinations**, while also pursuing his passion for **videography and photography**. Reflecting on Anandu’s journey, **Dr. Krishnan** said, “Anandu was diagnosed with severe aplastic anaemia in 2022 and received supportive care while preparing for a transplant. He underwent a matched unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplant in early 2023. Although he experienced expected complications such as febrile neutropenia and mucositis during the transplant period, his recovery progressed well. DKMS not only supported the unrelated donor search but also supported the transplant journey through its Access to Transplant programme. This helped in reducing the family’s financial burden. Anandu is doing very well, with stable blood counts and donor chimerism, and is now attending college and leading a healthy life.” An IT Consultant, Swathi, had participated in a donor recruitment drive at her workplace in 2016, organized by DKMS. In 2022, she received a call from DKMS to donate her stem cells, without hesitation she agreed. Her family, including her husband, was fully supportive of her decision to donate stem cells. She saved a life, and recently she was blessed with a baby boy. Swathi says she now understands a parent’s pain. “I know what a mother goes through when her child suffers. My donation came full circle, giving life, just as I welcomed my baby boy.” > “Anandu and Swathi’s story highlights why more people need to register as potential blood stem cell donors. It is the generosity of donors like Swathi that makes lifesaving transplants possible. With only 0.09% of India’s eligible population currently registered as donors, the chances of finding a match remain limited. Through stories like this, we hope to inspire more people to register and help give patients with blood cancers and blood disorders a second chance at life,” said **Patrick Paul, Executive Chairman, DKMS in India.** He also added that in Karnataka, more than 49,000 individuals have registered as potential blood stem cell donors with DKMS Foundation India. Bengaluru alone accounts for approximately 38,000 registered donors. > > “For patients with severe aplastic anaemia, a blood stem cell transplant can be the only curative option, yet finding a matching donor remains one of the biggest challenges. Anandu’s journey is a powerful reminder of the resilience shown by patients and families facing life-threatening blood disorders like severe aplastic anaemia. We deeply admire his courage and determination to return to a healthy life and pursue his dreams. At the same time, Swathi’s selfless decision to donate her blood stem cells reflects extraordinary compassion that has given a young life another chance.” **Dr. Govind Eriat, Consultant- Hemato-Oncologist & Bone Marrow Transplant, Cytecare Hospitals, Bengaluru, said.** Individuals between 18 and 55 years of age, in good general health, with a BMI under 40, and not already registered are eligible to sign up as potential blood stem cell donors.

While it’s a modest improvement, it may be a sign that some home sellers are feeling more hopeful about this spring’s housing market now that mortgage rates have dipped down to 6%. That has pushed the median monthly housing payment down 3.2% year over year, and Redfin agents in much of the country say 6% is a psychological threshold for buyers who have been waiting to jump into the market. (The daily average mortgage rate rose as high as 6.19% this week amid turmoil in the Middle East.) The improvement in new listings is partly due to sellers relisting their homes: Homeowners who pulled their homes off the market in 2025 are relisting at a record rate, betting on a stronger market this year. Pending home sales are down 1.3% year over year, the smallest decline in over a month, and mortgage-purchase applications are up 8% week over week. Those are also signals that the market may slowly be improving as spring approaches. Still, many would-be buyers are sitting on the sidelines, deterred by still-high costs and economic uncertainty; a small portion say they’re putting plans on hold due to the Iran war. There are hundreds of thousands more home sellers than buyers in the market, giving buyers negotiating power. But lower housing payments and more homes to choose from could lure some buyers off the sidelines–and some power could start shifting back to sellers. “Heading into spring and summer, the vibe is that the market will shift from the slowness we’ve seen over the last few years,” said Justin Gomez, a Redfin Premier agent in Omaha, NE. “I’ve already seen a few bidding wars on lower–priced homes, and that may become more common if mortgage rates stay closer to 6% than 7%. We also have a fairly large pool of homes for sale, with a lot of new construction homes sitting on the market. If the spring does bring more buyers off the sidelines, those will go fast and maybe for over asking price.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [PureFacts and Innover Digital Forge Global Partnership to Redefine AI-Powered Transformation in Financial Services](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/purefacts-and-innover-digital-forge-global-partnership-to-redefine-ai-powered-transformation-in-financial-services/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Bengaluru, India, Mar 12th:** PureFacts Financial Solutions, a recognized leader in AI-driven revenue management and data analytics, and Innover Digital, a global player in digital transformation and intelligent automation, today announced a strategic partnership aimed at accelerating innovation in the financial services ecosystem worldwide.

In a new study published in Quantum Review Letters, a team of researchers use Quantum Fisher Information (QFI) to quantify how the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) states respond to parameter perturbations, and to separate individual parameter relevance from cross-parameter correlations. In the study, the team used Quantum Fisher Information (QFI) to quantify how QAOA states respond to parameter perturbations, separating individual parameter relevance from cross-parameter correlations. “QFI gives us more than a single score — it exposes both the strength of parameter sensitivity and how strongly parameters become correlated as the circuit evolves,” explains senior and corresponding author Prof Shi-Hai Dong. The team analysed Max-Cut on cyclic and complete graphs, together with random Ising model instances, comparing RX-only and hybrid RX–RY mixers up to depth p=9p=9p=9. They also examined the effects of inserting entangling stages with different patterns. Across problem families, complete-graph Max-Cut consistently produced larger QFI eigenvalues and higher covariance fractions than cyclic graphs, exceeding the shot-noise scaling (4N)(4N)(4N) while remaining below the Heisenberg limit (4N2)(4N^2)(4N2). A saturation trend emerged: the first entangling stage accounted for most of the QFI growth, while additional stages often delivered diminishing benefits and could sometimes reduce the net gain. > “We computed QFI matrices averaged over random parameter samples, highlighting stable global trends and revealing strongly non-uniform parameter relevance that varied with circuit architecture and depth,” **adds Dong.** Building on these QFI signatures, the researchers introduced a QFI-Informed Mutation (QIm) heuristic that adapts mutation probabilities and step sizes using diagonal QFI entries. QIm improved convergence behaviour and run-to-run stability relative to uniform mutation and random-restart baselines, with the largest gains observed at greater depths and in random Ising model landscapes. > “In the NISQ era, optimisation is often the bottleneck. QFI offers a principled way to diagnose why a circuit is hard to train, and a practical handle for making optimisation more reliable,” **says Dong.** Overall, the results position QFI as both a structural probe of QAOA ansätze and a practical resource for shaping more reliable optimisation strategies under NISQ-era constraints.

Glia also now guarantees zero impact from prompt injection attacks on its platform — malicious attempts to trick customer or member care AI into providing information or performing tasks it shouldn’t. “Our platform makes negative impacts from AI hallucinations and prompt injection attacks not just improbable, but actually impossible,” said Justin DiPietro, chief strategy officer and co-founder of Glia. “We’re adding this guarantee to our contracts because that’s how serious we are about this claim. In the race to adopt AI, many banks and credit unions are unknowingly accepting a level of risk they would never tolerate in any other part of their business. We want them to know they don’t have to jeopardize their organizations to see the benefits of AI.” **Glia’s Banking AI Platform: Proprietary Approvals Framework** AI hallucinations are situations when generative or agentic AI presents false or misleading information. These risks are inherent in fully-generative AI because the internal decision-making is hidden—which means even the people who build these tools can’t always predict or explain why the AI says what it says. Glia eliminates the potential impacts of AI hallucinations and prompt injections through a built-in proprietary approvals framework. While the platform leverages generative AI and Large Language Models to achieve a 92%+ understanding rate — comprehending exactly what a customer or member needs — it never uses that same AI to ‘improvise’ answers in real time. “I anticipated substantial maintenance for the first six months because you have thousands of inquiries coming in with various types of people expressing it in a wide variety of ways,” said Adam Goetzke, director of banking services at Heritage Federal Credit Union. “But that really hasn’t been the case at all. Glia’s Banking AI made a better experience not only for our members, but our internal teams, too.” **The Best of Both Worlds: AI Speed, Institutional Governance** The platform leverages the most powerful elements of generative AI — the ability to parse complex, messy human language, identify intent and develop responses based on existing information — and combines them with an approvals framework for banking-grade governance. This distinction between input and output ensures institutions are never sharing inaccurate information or introducing opportunities for bad actors to manipulate customer- and member-facing AI tools. “If you use fully generative AI in your customer- or member-facing AI interactions, it’s like putting an open door to your banking core on the front steps of your branch,” DiPietro said. **Why Guardrails Aren’t Enough for Customer and Member Care** Many AI vendors suggest ‘guardrails’ are enough to protect institutions from financial and reputational damage. These guardrails attempt to catch and filter inaccurate or hallucinated AI responses after they’re generated. While marketed as ‘safe enough’ for banking, this approach is fundamentally flawed because it relies on the AI to police itself. By relying solely on guardrails, these vendors essentially transfer the risk to the institution, opting out of legal liability for the very content their systems generate. Glia’s architecture moves beyond simple detection. Instead of trying to block bad AI behavior, the Banking AI platform is designed to make such behavior mathematically impossible. “Guardrails are designed to make you feel safe, but it’s like driving a car without a seat belt,” said Dan Michaeli, CEO and co-founder of Glia. “It’s not a single bad actor you need to worry about — it’s a bad actor using an AI bot to target you 100,000 times in a single day until it finds a loophole. Generative AI has infinite potential — that’s what makes it so powerful, but also dangerous. One percent risk in an environment of infinite possibilities still equals infinite risk. Our approach is fast, predictable and secure.” **The Risks Associated With AI Hallucinations and Prompt Injections** In addition to significant security and compliance risks, AI hallucinations risk the very relationships community and regional institutions work so hard to earn. When a member or customer is exposed to incorrect information — whether it be an interest rate or complex financial guidance — it erodes the trust they’ve placed in their bank or credit union. “Imagine if AI offers your member a loan with an incorrect interest rate or transfers the wrong amount of money between accounts, you can quickly see how the risks of a fully generative approach begin to multiply,” Michaeli said. “We built our AI platform for banking — so it matches the high stakes, highly regulated and relationship-driven nature of the industry.” **A Multi-Layered Security Foundation for Financial Institutions** In addition to its new contractual guarantee against the impacts of AI hallucinations and prompt injections in customer and member care AI, Glia provides a comprehensive security stack designed to meet the rigorous compliance standards of the financial industry. - **Automated PII Redaction:** Identifying and masking Personally Identifiable Information (PII) at the source, ensuring it never hits a database or is seen by the wrong eyes. - **True End-to-End Encryption:** Keeping data private and secure the entire time it is in transit, from the moment a member picks up the phone until it reaches Glia — and between the institution’s own Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). - **No Independent Sharing of PII:** Processing data only according to the institution’s specific instructions and never leaking personal information to undisclosed third parties for product testing or development. - **Virus and Malware Scanning:** Automatically scrubbing all attachments exchanged through the Glia platform to stop digital threats before they can enter the institution’s network. - **Continuous Third-Party Auditing:** Undergoing regular, independent verification to ensure Glia’s security measures stay ahead of evolving global standards and banking regulations. These include PCI DSS audits, ADA WCAG reports and more. “We’re proving that Banking AI doesn’t have to come at the cost of personalized service — or of security and trust,” Michaeli said. “Over 700 banks and credit unions use our Banking AI platform to change their cost structure and prioritize the human element of service, and we’re proud to guarantee it doesn’t come with the risks inherent in other fully-generative tools, some of which are just wrappers for generic LLMs.” Glia will offer additional information via an educational webinar Wednesday, March 25, at 2 p.m. EST titled “The Banking AI North Star for 2026: Moving from Pilots to Measurable ROI.” Registration is open now on Glia’s website.

Although blood tests are commonly used to detect kidney problems by measuring creatinine levels, several signs and symptoms of kidney disease may be detected at earlier stages if individuals are aware of them. The kidneys are vital organs in the human body that filter waste, regulate fluid balance, and help maintain metabolic well-being. When kidney function begins to decline, the body may exhibit signs that are often overlooked or misattributed to fatigue or other aspects of daily life. One of the first symptoms of kidney disease is fatigue, cramps, and low energy. When the kidney fails to function optimally, toxins may accumulate in the blood, which can cause fatigue and weakness. Other symptoms include leg swelling and facial puffiness due to fluid accumulation. Patients can also present with changes in urination habits, which might manifest as increased urination at night, foamy urine, or even bloody urine. Foamy urine may indicate proteinuria, a symptom of kidney disease. As a doctor, I always recommend that people who are suffering from diabetes, hypertension, or obesity or who have a family history of kidney disease should be more cautious and undergo health check-ups to ensure early detection of kidney disease before serious damage occurs. The message is simple: kidney disease does not always scream for attention. Be aware of the small changes in the body and seek early medical advice. The best way to protect the kidneys and prevent complications is through early detection. It is important to follow 8 golden rules for kidney health. 1\. Keep fit, be active 2\. Eat a healthy diet 3\. Check and control your blood sugar 4\. Check and control your blood pressure 5\. Take appropriate fluid intake 6\. Don’t smoke 7\. Don’t take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory/pain-killer pills regularly 8\. Get your kidney function checked if you have any ‘high risk’ factors such as diabetes, hypertension or obesity [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Azoma launches new merchant-side standard for ‘brand friendly’ agentic commerce](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/azoma-launches-new-merchant-side-standard-for-brand-friendly-agentic-commerce/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **LONDON & TORONTO, March 12** — Azoma, the pioneers of Agentic Commerce Optimization, today launched Agentic Merchant Protocol (AMP), the powerful new foundational platform empowering retailers and brands to retain control of their product catalogues. Early adopters include some of the world’s most recognisable consumer brands and brand owners, such as Mars, L’Oréal, Unilever, Beiersdorf and Reckitt. Adopting AMP gives early adopters, including major grocery brands, retailers and electronics manufacturers, the ability to differentiate their offers and avoid lock-in to AI providers. Agentic commerce has crossed a tipping point. On Black Friday 2025 AI chatbots and agents drove an estimated $14.2B in sales globally, over $3B in the U.S. alone. Consumers no longer browse static product pages. Increasingly, they ask agents questions, compare options and evaluate synthesized product recommendations. In effect, machines help them decide what to buy. **Brand representation cannot be left to chance** Platform-specific protocols, like OpenAI ACP and Google’s UCP, quickly connect product data to buyer discovery and checkout workflows. They do not guarantee how brands are represented. The risk is that ‘black boxes’ weigh product data incorrectly, or ignore contradictory information elsewhere online to present offerings out of the context which the seller intended. Even after brands push their information through these channels, AI agents will still form responses by drawing from data across the wider web – sources entirely outside the brand’s control. Just as brands once had to go beyond a single retailer and ensure their product information was accurate everywhere it appeared online, they now need a way to distribute and orchestrate their brand intelligence across the entire agentic ecosystem. That is what AMP delivers. Max Sinclair, CEO of Azoma commented: “AMP breaks the foundations of traditional ecommerce. For decades, marketplaces like Amazon and Walmart acted as gatekeepers by controlling product detail pages, rankings, and distribution. Brands optimized a finite set of endpoints: PDPs, ads, search results. In an agentic world, those fixed pages no longer exist.” He added, “The fact that businesses like L’Oréal, Unilever, Mars & Beiersdorf have moved so quickly to adopt AMP tells you everything about the urgency they feel. These are companies that have spent decades building brand equity – they’re not about to hand control of how their products are represented to an AI black box.” **The savvy merchant’s choice** OpenAI and Google are racing to establish the consumer agent of choice for commerce. Merchants lack a neutral, enterprise-grade system focused on their needs. Brand control, consistency, compliance and predictability vary across all agentic surfaces. Azoma takes the opposite approach by focusing on merchant needs rather than consumer experiences. Sinclair added, “AMP radically improves the AI visibility of product information, guaranteeing agents will weigh it correctly. For enterprise brands, this is an existential change. They can now retain control over channels, messaging, accuracy and compliance. Their products are now represented by whatever information agents find and synthesize, often from unverified or outdated sources.“ **The missing layer in agentic commerce – how AMP works** - **Canonical, machine-native product catalogues** Enriched with brand guidelines, compliance guardrails, target personas, competitive context, and availability rules - **Programmatic Open Web distribution** Co-ordinated across the open web and agent ecosystems to ensure relevant product knowledge surfaces where agents reason and decide - **Contextual prioritization of content** Information distribution guided by persona-level signals to determine which buyer questions and answers matter, which product attributes and content to refresh - **Agent-agnostic interface** Interchangeable chat-based agents and marketplace assistants to reduce dependence on any one platform’s incentives or roadmap. **Independent enterprise-first brand amplification** Azoma’s **Agentic Merchant Protocol** is an independent, enterprise-first protocol that gives brands and retailers a single system to define how their product catalogues are understood, reasoned over, and acted upon by machines across every AI agent and the broader online sources that inform from. Azoma does not replace ACP or UCP. It sits above them. The Azoma protocol allows merchants to feed catalogue product intelligence once, handling distribution everywhere, including agent platforms via ACP and UCP and by shaping the broader online footprint. With this move, Azoma is laying out its plans to become the system of record for agentic commerce. Enterprises define their product catalogues, brand guidelines, regulatory and compliance requirements, and the protocol ensures this intelligence is syndicated across the agentic ecosystem. ​​”We’re proud to be working with some of Britain and Europe’s most iconic consumer brands from day one,” added Sinclair. “When L’Oréal, Unilever and Mars move together in the same direction, the rest of the market pays attention.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Sarvam Hosts Dignity Dialogues 2026 While Expanding Chapters to Maharashtra and Karnataka](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/sarvam-hosts-dignity-dialogues-2026-while-expanding-chapters-to-maharashtra-and-karnataka/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Sarvam Hosts Dignity Dialogues 2026 While Expanding Chapters to Maharashtra and Karnataka](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/9iw3ds00r6.jpeg) **Goa, Mar 12th:** Sarvam, a Goa-based workplace culture and POSH awareness initiative committed to promoting safe, respectful and equitable workplaces, successfully hosted Dignity Dialogues 2026 – The Uncomfortable Truth Lab on the occasion of International Women’s Day 2026. The national level virtual conclave brought together professionals, leaders and workplace advocates to discuss dignity at work, gender equity and the importance of POSH awareness in organisations. Participants joined the dialogue from states like Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, Punjab, Uttarakhand and Delhi, reflecting the growing national interest in conversations around safe and inclusive workplaces. The organisation has also recently expanded its presence with new chapters in Maharashtra and Karnataka, strengthening its engagement with companies across regions to build workplaces rooted in dignity, accountability and inclusion. The conclave was initiated by Shivani Panigrahi, Regional Head – Karnataka at SARVAM for PoSH, and moderated by Ashwini Patwardhan, Founder of SARVAM for PoSH. The dialogue was thoughtfully conceptualised and curated by the SARVAM team under the expertise of Amit Jadhav, Regional Head – Maharashtra, reflecting the organisation’s continued commitment to meaningful conversations around workplace dignity. A key highlight of the conclave was a live social experiment conducted through anonymous audience polls, allowing participants to reflect on their own workplace experiences. The findings revealed common professional patterns, reinforcing the need for deeper conversations around workplace behaviour and culture. Insights from the social experiment conducted during the dialogue revealed a clear shift in workplace expectations: dignity at work is no longer seen as merely a compliance requirement. Instead, participants emphasised that the future of workplace culture will be defined not by the absence of complaints, but by the presence of dignity, trust and accountability embedded in everyday organisational behaviour. Speaking during the session, she said, “Sarvam was created with the belief that workplace dignity should never be treated as a checklist item. Our goal is to help organisations build cultures where people feel safe to speak, leadership takes accountability, and respect becomes a lived workplace value. What emerged from this dialogue is that employees today are no longer willing to accept silence as the price of professionalism — the real shift now is the expectation that dignity at work must be visible, measurable and actively upheld by leadership.” Opening the discussion, CA Pallavi Salgaocar, Finance Director at Geno Pharmaceuticals and Goa State President of Laghu Udyog Bharati, shared candid insights into the challenges faced by women entrepreneurs and professionals. She highlighted the persistent gender bias in venture funding, noting that women founders are often asked personal questions unrelated to business performance during funding meetings. Reflecting on these experiences, she emphasised the need for inclusive decision-making spaces where women leaders are respected for their expertise and vision from the outset. “Women should not have to prove their credibility every time they enter a room. The room itself must be inclusive enough to recognise competence and leadership without bias,” she said. Salgaocar further stressed that organisations must go beyond measuring productivity to actively assess fairness and representation, encouraging men to play a role in building inclusive cultures. “Dignity at work is not a privilege it is a fundamental right. Conversations like these must continue beyond Women’s Day if we want to transform workplace culture in a meaningful way,” she added. The dialogue also featured CA Priyanka Chaturvedi Agrawal, Director and Co-Founder of Ally of Inclusion, former Director at KPMG India and ESG Director at BNP Paribas Global. She spoke about the role of the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) framework in strengthening workplace safety and highlighted how sexual harassment often stems from unchecked power dynamics and repeated microaggressions. “In many workplaces, silence has been normalised. People hesitate to call out behaviour because they fear being misunderstood or labelled difficult. But silence allows microaggressions and power misuse to continue unchecked,” she said. She further emphasised that prevention requires organisations to look beyond formal procedures. “True prevention is not only about having policies or committees in place. It is about creating environments where employees feel heard and safe enough to speak even when the issue is still unformed or uncomfortable to articulate,” Priyanka added. Notably, the session also saw strong participation from male professionals, reflecting the growing understanding that creating safe and respectful workplaces is a shared responsibility. Amit Jadhav, Regional Head – Maharashtra, Sarvam, emphasised the importance of continuing such conversations across organisations. “Workplace dignity cannot be built through policies alone. It is shaped by everyday behaviours, leadership accountability and the courage to question what has long been normalised. Conversations like Dignity Dialogues are meant to open that space where organisations can move beyond compliance and begin building cultures where respect and safety are lived values,” he said. Following the dialogue, speakers also noted that conversations around workplace dignity are gaining urgency as organisations revisit their compliance frameworks. Recently, the Government of Maharashtra directed workplaces in the state to conduct a PoSH compliance audit within 30 days, reinforcing the intent of the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 to ensure safe and respectful workplaces. Responding to this growing need for awareness and compliance support, SARVAM for PoSH continues to work with organisations through training, advisory and culture-building initiatives. The organisation has also recently expanded its presence with new chapters in Maharashtra and Karnataka, strengthening its engagement with companies across regions to build workplaces rooted in dignity, accountability and inclusion. Through initiatives like Dignity Dialogues, Sarvam continues to work with organisations across sectors to strengthen POSH awareness, conduct training programmes and facilitate leadership conversations that build safe and inclusive workplace cultures. With participation from professionals across industries, the event concluded with a collective call for organisations to embed dignity and accountability into workplace culture, ensuring that conversations on gender equity and workplace safety continue long after International Women’s Day.

By enabling remote ultrasonic excitation and reception, the technology is expected to help prevent industrial accidents and eliminate inspection blind spots in high-risk industrial facilities where direct sensor installation has been challenging due to heat, toxic gases, or other hazardous environmental conditions. Waveguide: A tubular structure designed to guide waves or physical energy along a defined path. Depending on its geometry, a waveguide can control ultrasonic propagation direction, manage reflection and refraction phenomena, and optimize the directionality and energy efficiency of transmitted waves. Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) is a safety inspection technique that uses ultrasonic signals to detect internal defects without damaging the structure under examination. It is regarded as a critical technology for ensuring structural reliability in safety-critical industries such as aerospace, nuclear power, and large-scale industrial plants. However, conventional ultrasonic sensors for NDT have been difficult to deploy in extreme environments, such as high-temperature piping in nuclear power plants or storage facilities containing hazardous chemicals. Because these sensors must be directly attached to the surface of the inspection target, they are frequently damaged by intense heat or corrosive substances. In addition, in restricted high-risk areas where human access is limited, sensor installation itself is often impossible. Conventional ultrasonic transducers designed for full 360-degree inspection have typically relied on segmented configurations, in which multiple sensing elements are arranged circumferentially. However, combining wave signals from these segmented sources often leads to interference and distortion, reducing inspection accuracy. To overcome this limitation, the KRISS Non-Destructive Metrology Group introduced a waveguide as an intermediate medium. By transmitting ultrasonic waves through the waveguide, the sensing region can be installed remotely without direct contact with the surface under inspection. This approach enabled the development of a new type of ultrasonic sensor capable of operating under high-risk conditions while maintaining precise defect detection performance. The core innovation lies in generating torsional vibration within a cylindrical waveguide—much like twisting a towel—and then uniformly transferring this vibration to the surface under inspection. Through this mechanism, ultrasonic waves propagate evenly in all directions, enabling precise defect detection even when the sensor is installed at a distance from the target structure. Notably, the waveguide can be fabricated using various materials and geometries, and its end can be machined to conform to curved structural surfaces. This flexibility allows stable operation under diverse environmental conditions and on complex structural shapes. Experimental results demonstrated that the developed sensor achieved approximately 95% directional uniformity and high-purity wave propagation, enabling consistent signal capture across the entire inspection range. Signal amplitude was also improved by more than 13.7 times compared to conventional segmented configurations, allowing rapid scanning of wide areas and high-resolution imaging. This technology is expected to enable real-time monitoring of structures in extreme environments where conventional NDT methods have been impractical, significantly enhancing industrial safety. In addition, by replacing multiple high-cost sensors with a single sensor integrated with a low-cost waveguide structure, the system can inspect large areas efficiently while substantially reducing inspection costs. > **Dr. Seung Hong Min of the Non-Destructive Metrology Group at KRISS said** the newly developed sensor also demonstrates excellent signal performance in liquid environments, enabling precise inspection of large submerged structures. “Based on its high reliability and versatility, the technology can be readily applied to accident prevention systems across various industrial facilities. By detecting previously inaccessible inspection blind spots, it has the potential to significantly contribute to the prevention of large-scale industrial disasters,” he added. This research was supported by the KRISS Basic Research Program and was published in December in Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing (Impact Factor: 8.9), a leading international journal in the field of mechanical engineering. **Categories:** business --- ### [Ram Expands Tampa Bay Multifamily Footprint with Acquisition of Beacon 430](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/ram-expands-tampa-bay-multifamily-footprint-with-acquisition-of-beacon-430/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **TAMPA, Fla., March 12** — Ram Realty Advisors (“Ram”), a real estate investment management firm specializing in multifamily, grocery-anchored retail, and mixed-use in select high-growth markets throughout the Southeast, today announced the acquisition of Beacon 430, a 327-unit apartment community located in Downtown St. Petersburg, Florida (Tampa MSA). The property was acquired by an affiliate of Ram Realty Partners VII. The acquisition reflects Ram’s strategy of investing in well-located multifamily assets within infill urban markets where development constraints limit new supply. Developed in 2014, Beacon is a four-story, elevator-served residential community situated on a 4.3-acre site spanning two city blocks in the heart of Downtown St. Pete. The property provides a low-rise residential alternative with extensive outdoor amenities in a submarket where limited site availability and rising land costs increasingly favor high-rise development. Downtown St. Pete has emerged as one of Florida’s most vibrant urban submarkets, supported by strong population growth, a diversified employment base, and a highly walkable waterfront environment. The property is within walking distance of several of the area’s largest employers, including Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital, and the University of South Florida St. Petersburg campus, as well as the Central Avenue retail and entertainment district and the city’s waterfront cultural attractions. Ram plans to implement a targeted value-add program focused on operational enhancements, common area and amenity improvements, and select unit interior upgrades designed to further position the property within the market. “Beacon stood out to us because of its scale, location, and ability to offer a different residential experience than much of the new product in Downtown St. Pete,” said Nate Wilson, Vice President of Multifamily Investments at Ram. “We believe targeted operational improvements and selective upgrades will further strengthen the property’s position within the market.” “The Tampa Bay area has been a primary market for Ram for more than two decades,” said Casey Cummings, Chief Executive Officer of Ram. “We have been investing in this market since 2000 and continue to see strong long-term fundamentals in Downtown St. Pete. Beacon represents another opportunity to expand our footprint in a market we know well.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [NAFFCO, Verona Shelters Form JV to Expand Global Shelter Production](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/naffco-verona-shelters-form-jv-to-expand-global-shelter-production/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **DUBAI, United Arab Emirates & HELSINKI, March 12** — NAFFCO Group has entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Verona Shelters to form a strategic partnership dedicated to developing and manufacturing advanced civil defense and military shelter solutions in the United Arab Emirates.

Packaging materials that perform consistently under these conditions are becoming critical. The rapid growth of quick service restaurants (QSRs), cloud kitchens, and the evolving food delivery and takeaway ecosystem has played a key role in driving demand for foil and allied packaging solutions in the Indian market. Lakshay Singhal, Director, LSKB Aluminium Foils Pvt. Ltd., said, Our premium Golden Foil range has emerged as one of the most trusted and widely used products in our portfolio. As consumer expectations around hygiene, food safety and convenience continue to evolve, we see a clear opportunity to bring better quality solutions into the food packaging category. Our entry into grease proof paper is part of this journey — expanding our offerings while maintaining the same focus on reliability and performance. We believe initiatives like these will also contribute to the broader growth and quality standards of India’s food packaging ecosystem.” The commercial rollout of HOMEFOIL Grease Proof Paper will commence in March 2026, with distribution across retail and institutional channels. The launch will be supported by the company’s extensive distribution network of over 150 distributors and more than 25,000 channel partners across India, enabling wide market access from the outset.

March 12** –Level Access, a global leader in digital accessibility, has expanded its Partner Program to enable more organizations to deliver inclusive, impactful digital experiences to their customers while also supporting accessibility compliance. Selected partners will join a network of industry-leading organizations, from consultancies such as IBM, Slalom, and Merkle to large digital agencies such as Americaneagle.com and accessibility industry innovators such as Fable. With rising regulatory requirements like the European Accessibility Act (EAA) and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) driving accessibility awareness and program adoption, now is the perfect time for agencies, software vendors, technology platforms, and consultancies to join the program and build accredited accessibility expertise. “Occasional trainings and siloed efforts won’t drive meaningful accessibility. Organizations need accessibility skills embedded across teams to create business impact,” said Peter Cummings, VP of Global Partners and Routes to Market at Level Access. “The benefits go beyond compliance. When partners lead on accessibility, they help their customers create digital experiences that work for everyone—unlocking benefits across sales, customer loyalty, and retention.” “Surfacing and prioritizing accessibility issues early—and getting it right the first time—is critical,” said Justin Ablett, Front Office Transformation Lead at IBM Consulting. “Many clients have large, complex digital portfolios of products and assets. Our partnership with Level Access gives us a ‘mission control’ view to manage accessibility at scale, strengthen governance, and allocate work efficiently. This proactive approach helps to strengthen our competitive position and unlock new revenue opportunities.” The program includes three accreditation levels—Verified, Certified, and Expert—and provides structured training on accessibility best practices and the Level Access Platform. Through the platform, partners gain a comprehensive view of clients’ digital portfolios, enabling them to embed accessibility early in the development life cycle and reduce costly late‑stage fixes. “This is a pivotal moment for digital accessibility,” said Tim Banker, Head of Platform Design at Slalom. “As organizations accelerate digital transformation, they’re recognizing that inclusive experiences are essential to reach broader audiences and drive sustained growth.

Founded by Diipa Büller-Khosla in 2021, the brand debuted on Sephora.com on March 3, 2026, and will roll out in-store across 178 Sephora U.S. locations beginning March 13, including the iconic flagship store in New York City. Known for blending traditional Indian beauty rituals with modern skincare science, indē wild has built a distinctive identity rooted in culture-led innovation. Developed and headquartered in India, the brand’s philosophy of Ayurvedistry™ combines time-honoured Ayurvedic ingredients and rituals with clinically backed formulations designed for modern beauty routines. The brand’s expansion has been built on translating traditional Indian rituals into high-performance products without diluting their strong cultural roots. Rather than positioning Indian beauty as a niche or heritage category, indē wild was created to resonate with a global consumer from the outset. Rituals such as Champi and hair oiling are reimagined through high-performance formulations designed to integrate seamlessly into contemporary routines, balancing cultural authenticity with visible efficacy. Since launching indē wild in 2021, founder Diipa Büller-Khosla has led the brand’s positioning and product philosophy, building it into a globally recognised beauty brand rooted in modern interpretations of Indian rituals. Speaking about the milestone, **Büller-Khosla** shared: “When I first started indē wild, my goal was to take the beauty rituals I grew up with and reimagine them for a global audience. Sephora U.S. marks a defining chapter in that journey, as indē wild evolves from a digitally native community into a global prestige beauty brand. From day one, we built indē wild around the belief that Ayurvedic wisdom and clinical science can coexist in a way that feels both elevated and accessible. Bringing Ayurvedistry™ to one of the most influential beauty retailers in the world is a powerful signal that culturally rooted brands from India can resonate with consumers all over the world.” Among the hero products leading indē wild’s entry into Sephora are the Champi Pre-Wash Treatment Hair Oil, inspired by India’s iconic hair oiling ritual, and the 15% Vitamin C Complex Serum, both reflecting the brand’s commitment to ritual-driven yet high-performance formulations. In India, the country of hair oiling, the Champi Hair Oil is the #1 selling hair oil in the prestige category on India’s #1 beauty retailer. Today, it has become a global bestseller, with one bottle sold every minute worldwide. Since its founding in 2021, indē wild has cultivated a devoted global community through products that merge traditional Indian wellness practices with modern cosmeceutical science. Its expansion into Sephora U.S., following the brand’s successful debut at Sephora UK, signals the growing international appetite for culturally rooted yet performance-led beauty brands. As indē wild arrives on Sephora shelves across the United States, the brand continues its mission of bringing Indian beauty rituals to a global audience- bridging heritage, science, and storytelling through products designed for modern routines [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [5 Reasons Why Prime Video’s Local Times is the Most Comforting Series About Friendship and Dreams that Deserves a Spot on Your Watchlist](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/entertainment/5-reasons-why-prime-videos-local-times-is-the-most-comforting-series-about-friendship-and-dreams-that-deserves-a-spot-on-your-watchlist/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![5 Reasons Why Prime Video’s Local Times is the Most Comforting Series About Friendship and Dreams that Deserves a Spot on Your Watchlist](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/2hr5byx407.png) In an era dominated by high-stakes thrillers and glossy action dramas, Prime Video’s Local Times finds its charm in simplicity. The Tamil Original series follows Veera and his motley crew as they attempt to revive Namma Seidhi, a once-respected local newspaper. What begins as a simple mission quickly spirals into hilarious story leads, financial struggles, and plenty of friendship-fueled antics. Blending humor, heart, and the unpredictability of chasing a dream, Local Times turns an unlikely premise into a warm, feel-good watch. Here are five reasons the series could become your next comfort watch. **1.A Refreshing Underdog Story** At the heart of the series is the fight to revive Namma Seidhi, a struggling regional newspaper trying to stay relevant. Far from glamorous newsrooms, the show dives into the messy reality of a small publication where resources are scarce but ambition runs high. Veera and his friends taking on this uphill battle makes for a classic, inspiring underdog story. **2. A Chaotic But Lovable Friend Group** The dynamic between Veera, Azhagu, Valli, and Muthu drives Local Times. They argue, tease each other, and often make questionable decisions, but their loyalty never wavers. Their chemistry brings warmth and humor to the series, making their friendship instantly relatable. **3. A Unique Take on Grassroots Journalism** The series spotlights grassroots journalism, where even the smallest stories matter. As the team chases quirky local leads and struggles to keep readers engaged, Local Times highlights the realities and importance of community-driven storytelling and the struggles of keeping a local newspaper alive. **4. Comedy Packed With A Lot of Heart** Despite a dark cloud of financial struggles and constant setbacks, Local Times is a breezy, light, and entertaining watch. From office shenanigans to hilariously misguided reporting attempts, things rarely go as planned. The result is a series full of organic humor and heartfelt moments that make you root for the team. **5. A Relatable Dream Against All Odds** Above all, Local Times captures the spirit of young people fighting to protect what they believe in. Their determination to keep Namma Seidhi alive reflects the struggles of many small ventures, where passion often outweighs resources, proving that persistence, friendship, and belief can keep a fading dream alive. Developed by Anekdotes, directed by Naveen George Thomas, and produced by Jithin Thorai under the banner of Fanboy Production, the Tamil series stars Rishikanth, Abdool Lee, Maurish Dass, Adwitha Arumugam, R. Pandiarajan, Chinni Jayanth, Rini, and Nandhitha Sreekumar in key roles. Written by Praveen Muthurangan and created by Abbhinav Kastura, along with Praveen Muthurangan, Satwik Gade, Thomas Manuel, and Visvaksen P, Local Times is now streaming in India and across 240 countries and territories worldwide in Tamil, with English subtitles, exclusively on Prime Video.

(NYSE:JOBY), a company developing electric air taxis for commercial passenger service, today announced it has begun flight testing its first FAA-conforming aircraft for Type Inspection Authorization (TIA), a major step on the path to type certification. Initial testing by Joby pilots will pave the way for FAA pilots to visit Joby’s Marina, CA, facility later this year to conduct the rigorous TIA testing required to validate the aircraft for commercial service. Today’s announcement comes just days after the U.S. government cleared the way for mature aircraft designs like Joby’s to begin early operations across the U.S. this year, as part of the White House-backed eVTOL Integration Pilot Program (eIPP). Through the program, Joby has the opportunity to fly in Arizona, Florida, Idaho, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas and Utah, marking a major milestone for the U.S. air taxi industry with the potential to significantly accelerate Joby’s path to commercial service. “Seeing this aircraft fly means everything to our team. It’s the validation of years of hard work and marks our entry into the final phase of bringing this aircraft to market,” said **Didier Papadopoulos, President of Aircraft OEM at Joby.** “After focusing on ‘for credit’ testing at both the equipment and system levels, we’re now moving into the final phase of aircraft-level evaluations. This is evidence that our rigorous design and certification process is paying off, and we look forward to welcoming FAA pilots to Marina in due course.” The aircraft (N547JX) is the first of a fleet currently in production to support TIA testing, and has been assembled using an airframe and components built to FAA Designated Engineering Representative-approved designs and signed off by FAA Designated Airworthiness Representatives, as specified in Joby’s FAA-approved test plans. The pace at which Joby has been able to move from prototype to conforming aircraft is rooted in its vertically integrated approach, a strategy that is redefining the industry’s path to certification. The vast majority of the Joby’s aircraft components are designed, engineered, tested and manufactured in-house, reducing reliance on third party suppliers, improving quality control, and shortening lead times. In 2025, Joby celebrated the completion of an expanded manufacturing facility in Marina, CA and confirmed the start of propeller blade production in Ohio. Additionally, Joby recently acquired a new 700,000 square-foot facility in Dayton, Ohio to support its plans to double production to four aircraft per month in 2027. Over time, Joby’s Dayton facilities are expected to be capable of supporting the delivery of up to 500 aircraft per year.

It strengthens our commitment to solving pain points, simplifying experiences and continuously raising the standard of service we deliver to millions of our customers every day.” **This ritual and the culture of solving for customer pain-points** has been central to many of Airtel’s customer‑first innovations. From stronger **spam and fraud protection** to simpler, more intuitive digital journeys through the **Airtel app** and wider access to **new‑age, AI‑enabled tools**, Airtel’s solutions have been shaped by listening. Customer Day also reinforces Airtel’s belief that experience improvement is not episodic, but continuous. By listening closely to customers and acting decisively on their feedback, the company continues to simplify processes, remove friction and design services that are reliable, intuitive and responsive. It unites Airtel behind a single, enduring purpose: to be a company where customer obsession is not a slogan, but a culture—one that drives constant improvement and ensures that every decision begins and ends with the customer.

Researchers from the University of Vienna and ETH Zurich now show that the current increase in day length — 1.33 milliseconds per century— is unprecedented in the past 3.6 million years. The team reconstructed ancient day-length fluctuations using the fossil remains of single-celled marine organisms known as benthic foraminifera. The study has just been published in the *Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth*. An exact 24-hour day is not a given—day length changes due to gravitational effects of the Moon, as well as various geophysical processes acting within the Earth’s interior, at its surface, and in the atmosphere. Today’s climate change also affects day length: prior work showed that from 2000 to 2020 our days lengthened by a rate equivalent to 1.33 milliseconds per century due to climate-related factors, especially the continental-ocean mass redistribution due to the melting of polar ice sheets and mountain glaciers. In a new study, now appearing in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Mostafa Kiani Shahvandi (University of Vienna) and Benedikt Soja (ETH Zurich) demonstrate that this rapid rise in day length is unparalleled over the last 3.6 million years. **Earth as a figure skater** > “In our earlier work, we showed that the accelerated melting of polar ice sheets and mountain glaciers in the 21st century is raising sea levels, which slows Earth’s rotation and therefore lengthens the day — similar to a figure skater who spins more slowly once they stretch their arms, and more rapidly once they keep their hands close to their body,” **explains Mostafa Kiani Shahvandi of the University of Vienna’s Department of Meteorology and Geophysics**. “What remained unclear was whether there were earlier periods when climate increased day length at a similarly rapid pace.” **Foraminifera as sea-level and day-time indicators** To answer this question, the researchers used the fossilized remains of single-celled marine organisms known as benthic foraminifera. “From the chemical composition of the foraminifera fossils, we can infer sea-level fluctuations and then mathematically derive the corresponding changes in day length,” says first author Kiani Shahvandi from the University of Vienna. To draw more robust conclusions, the team employed a probabilistic deep learning algorithm— a physics-informed diffusion model: “This model captures the physics of sea-level change, while remaining robust to the large uncertainties inherent in paleoclimate data,” adds the climate scientist and geophysicist. **The result:** During the Quaternary (2.6 million years), the growth and melting of large continental ice sheets repeatedly caused significant day-length variations via sea-level changes. Compared with values from the 21st century, however, it is clear that today’s increase in day length stands out in the climate history of the past 3.6 million years. “Only one time—around 2 million years ago—the rate of change in length of day was nearly comparable, but never before or after that has the planetary ‘figure skater’ raised her arms and sea-levels so quickly as in 2000 to 2020”, says Kiani Shahvandi. **Rate of day-length change since the late Pliocene is unprecedented** > “This rapid increase in day length implies that the rate of modern climate change has been unprecedented at least since the late Pliocene, 3.6 million years ago. The current rapid rise in day length can thus be attributed primarily to human influences,” **says Benedikt Soja, Professor of Space Geodesy at ETH Zurich**. By the end of the 21st century, climate change is expected to affect day length even more strongly than the Moon. Even though the changes are only milliseconds, they can cause problems in many areas, for example in precise space navigation, which requires accurate information on Earth’s rotation,” Soja notes. This study by Mostafa Kiani Shahvandi (University of Vienna) and Benedikt Soja (ETH Zurich) is the first to examine fossil archives for research into the history of climate-induced changes in the length of the day. It thus provides a link between past and future climatic effects on the Earth’s rotation.

This represents a **9.6% increase compared to February 2025**, while remaining essentially stable month‑over‑month compared to January 2026 (‑0.2%). Education remained the most impacted industry, followed by Government and Automotive in India. The findings confirm that global cyber pressure has stabilized at historically high levels. While ransomware activity declined year over year due to an anomalous campaign observed in early 2025, overall attack volumes remain near record highs, driven by persistent automated attacks, expanding digital infrastructures, and widening exposure linked to the widespread use of Generative AI (GenAI) tools. > “February’s data shows that cyber risk is not episodic — it’s continuous,” said **Omer Dembinsky, Data Research Manager at Check Point Research**. “Even when ransomware activity fluctuates, attackers maintain constant pressure across industries and regions. At the same time, unmanaged GenAI usage continues to introduce new data exposure risks. Prevention‑first, real‑time protection powered by AI remains the most effective way to stop attacks before they cause operational or financial damage.” **GenAI Adoption Continues to Drive Data Exposure Risks while Education Remains the Top Target** The rapid adoption of GenAI tools across enterprises continues to introduce high‑risk data leakage pathways. During February, **1 in every 31 GenAI prompts** submitted from corporate networks posed a **high risk of sensitive data exposure**, impacting **88% of organizations** that regularly use GenAI tools. An additional **16% of prompts** contained potentially sensitive information, including internal documents, credentials, customer data, and proprietary content. Organizations used an average of **11 different GenAI tools** over the past month, many of which are likely unmanaged and operating outside formal governance frameworks. Meanwhile, the average enterprise user generated **62 GenAI prompts per month**, underscoring how deeply AI‑driven workflows are embedded into daily operations — often without sufficient visibility or controls. The **Education sector** remained the most attacked globally, with institutions averaging **4,749 weekly attacks per organization** (+7% YoY). **Government entities** followed with **2,714 weekly attacks** (+2% YoY). **Telecommunications** ranked third, facing **2,699 attacks per week** (+6% YoY), reflecting sustained targeting of connectivity‑driven infrastructures and 5G‑enabled ecosystems. **Regional Attack Volumes Remain Concentrated in Rapidly Digitizing Economies** Regionally, **Latin America** recorded the highest attack volumes, averaging **3,123 attacks per organization per week**, alongside the **largest year‑over‑year increase globally (+20%)**. **APAC** followed with **3,040 attacks per week** (+3% YoY), while **Africa** recorded **2,993 attacks** (‑7% YoY). **Europe** experienced an **11% year‑over‑year increase**, while **North America** saw a **9% rise**, confirming that mature markets continue to face sustained and growing cyber pressure alongside emerging digital economies. **Ransomware Threat Landscape: Activity Declines Year over Year but Risk Persists** Ransomware remained one of the most disruptive cyber threats in February, with **629 publicly reported attacks**, reflecting a **32% decrease compared to February 2025**. This decline is largely attributed to an unusually large ransomware campaign conducted by the **Clop** group during the same period last year. Excluding that anomalous event, ransomware activity remains broadly consistent year over year. **North America** accounted for **57% of all reported ransomware incidents**, followed by **Europe (17%)** and **APAC (17%)**, confirming that attackers continue to prioritize regions with dense digital infrastructure and high‑value economic targets. At the country level, the **United States** represented **51% of global ransomware victims**, followed by **Canada (6%)** and the **United Kingdom (2.7%)**. While activity remains heavily concentrated in North America, the most impacted countries span multiple continents, underscoring the global reach of ransomware operations. Across industries, **Business Services** was the most impacted sector (**37%**), followed by **Consumer Goods & Services (13%)** and **Industrial Manufacturing (9%)** industries where operational disruption provides significant leverage for extortion. The leading ransomware groups in February were **Qilin (15%)**, **Clop (13%)**, and **The Gentlemen (11%)**, collectively responsible for a substantial share of victim disclosures. Notably, **49 different ransomware groups** publicly impacted organizations worldwide during the month, highlighting the scale and fragmentation of the ransomware ecosystem.

The event was held today at The Stadel, Kolkata. The program aligned with the global World Kidney Day theme “Kidney Health for All – Caring for People, Protecting the Planet.” The symposium aimed to educate both the public and healthcare professionals about early diagnosis, prevention, and holistic management of kidney diseases. The event brought together leading nephrologists and healthcare experts who discussed important aspects of kidney health, including managing creatinine levels, delaying dialysis, redefining CKD care, and lifestyle interventions to improve kidney function. The program began with an Inauguration Ceremony and Lamp Lighting, followed by the inaugural address by renowned nephrologist Dr. Pratim Sengupta. The session was also graced by Chief Guest Prof. Dilip Baidya, who addressed the gathering.

Developed with guidance from a distinguished expert panel — Dr. Sanjay Kalra, Dr. V. Mohan, Dr. Atul Dhingra, Dr. Deep Dutta, Dr. Dinesh Khullar, Dr. Jothydev Kesavadev, Dr. K. D. Modi, Dr. Manash P. Baruah, Dr. Nitin Kapoor, Dr. Pramila Kalra, Dr. Shehla Shaikh and Dr. Tiny Nair — the ICRAS Tool will help clinicians assess cardio‑renal risk early in people living with T2DM. By early risk stratification, the tool aims to improve health outcomes and reduce complications associated with T2DM. India is often referred to as the “diabetes capital of the world,” with 101 million people currently living with diabetes¹. Heart and kidney conditions remain among the most common and serious complications of Type 2 diabetes². This makes early risk assessment especially important. > **Dr. Kartik Peethambaran, Medical Director, Abbott India, said:** “Abbott remains committed to transforming diabetes care delivery across the entire healthcare ecosystem. For this, we continue to partner with healthcare professionals to support appropriate patient screening and improve clinical outcomes. The ICRAS tool is designed to help clinicians assess a diabetic patient’s likelihood of developing Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD), Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE)³. What makes this tool particularly impactful is its ability to enable timely clinical decision‑making, supporting evidence‑based practice, and strengthening overall patient evaluation.” The ICRAS Tool brings together important health indicators — including key medical test results and lifestyle factors — to generate separate risk scores for kidney disease, heart disease, and major cardiac events in people with Type 2 diabetes. It also accounts for gender‑specific differences in risk, offering a clearer and more personalized summary of each diabetic patient’s risk of developing heart and kidney condition. Designed with privacy at its core, this web‑based tool does not capture any personal information about patients or doctors, ensuring all assessments remain fully secure. > **Dr. Pramila Kalra, Endocrinologist, Ramaiah Memorial Hospital, Bangalore, added:** “Diabetes complications often develop because of a combination of high blood sugar, excess weight, other health conditions, and daily lifestyle habits. Over time, in diabetic patients these factors can put extra strain on the heart and kidneys — which are among the organs most affected in Type 2 diabetes². Nearly one‑third of people with Type 2 diabetes have some form of heart disease², and chronic kidney disease affects 40% of T2DM patients⁴. The challenge is that many people feel fine early on, even when complications may already be developing silently. Early risk assessments can help doctors spot these issues sooner and act before they become serious.” Identifying high‑risk individuals early allows doctors to tailor care in meaningful ways. Timely, targeted interventions can slow or even prevent serious heart and kidney complications — helping people living with diabetes stay healthier for longer.

Livasa Hospitals has undergone a significant phase of transformation in the recent years, strengthening clinical capabilities, investing in advanced medical infrastructure and equipment, and building a robust institutional healthcare platform across Punjab. The Ludhiana expansion marks another important milestone in the network’s growth journey. The hospital is being developed in partnership with Primewalk Infra Private Limited, a project company associated with OneCrest Infra, on a 9,900+ square yard freehold land parcel with a built-up area of over 3.75 lakh square feet and will be strategically located at Sherpur Chowk along the National Highway, ensuring easy accessibility for patients from Ludhiana and neighbouring districts. With an overall capital investment of INR 360 crores including the landowner contribution, the Livasa group demonstrates a significant private Healthcare Investment in the region. Ludhiana, the largest and one of the most economically vibrant cities in Punjab, currently faces a shortage of private healthcare infrastructure, with relatively low private hospital bed availability per 1,000 people compared to other major cities in the state. As a result, many patients are compelled to travel to other cities for specialised treatment. Livasa Hospitals aims to address this gap by bringing high-quality, technology-driven tertiary care services closer to residents of Ludhiana and surrounding regions. Founded in 2008, Livasa Hospitals currently operates a strong regional healthcare network in Mohali, Amritsar, Nawanshahr (SBS Nagar), Hoshiarpur, and Khanna, offering advanced tertiary and quaternary care across 38+ medical specialties. The network presently has 800+ beds, over 250 senior consultants, 280 ICU beds, 20 modular operation theatres, and 6 advanced cath labs, serving patients across Punjab and neighbouring states. IndiaRF, a leading private equity firm, acquired a controlling stake in the group in September 2023. With this expansion, Livasa Hospitals will further strengthen its ability to serve Punjab more effectively while continuing to advance its vision of ‘**Swasth Punjab**.’ > Commenting on the expansion, **Mr. Anurag Yadav, CEO, Livasa Hospitals**, said: “Ludhiana represents a key milestone in Livasa’s growth journey. As one of the most important cities in Punjab, it deserves access to advanced, high-quality healthcare close to home. With our upcoming hospital, we aim to bring our clinical expertise, modern infrastructure, and patient-centric approach to the people of Ludhiana and neighbouring districts. This expansion also strengthens our growing network across Punjab and reflects our commitment to building a trusted healthcare ecosystem for the region.” > > Commenting on the expansion, **Shantanu Nalavadi, Managing Director of IndiaRF**, said, “Livasa has undergone tremendous transformation since our investment two years ago. IndiaRF has since professionalized the management, re-branded the group, and has invested in modernizing the existing facilities and acquiring the advance equipment. As we strengthen our new identity, it is now the right time to execute our expansion strategy by entering the largest city of Punjab – Ludhiana. We remain committed to expand the Livasa’s network through similar opportunities in the region and are actively looking to make more investments in in this platform.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Ice Cream Works Introduces ‘Zero Sugar Added’ – A New Era of Guilt-Free Indulgence ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/ice-cream-works-introduces-zero-sugar-added-a-new-era-of-guilt-free-indulgence/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** Ice Cream Works, a brand that has always celebrated creativity and craftsmanship, continues to evolve with changing times and consumer preferences.

Disruptions to regional energy infrastructure and shipping routes have reinforced fears that available crude supply could remain tight, particularly with the Strait of Hormuz still largely constrained, limiting the flow of exports from key producing nations. Production levels in some oil-exporting countries declined amid storage constraints and export difficulties. However, flows through pipeline infrastructure in certain countries helped prevent a more severe shock to the market. Despite this, shipment disruptions and attacks on vessels in the region continue to drive prices to the upside. Volatility is likely to remain elevated in the near term, as oil markets react quickly to geopolitical headlines. However, the agreement by G7 countries to release crude from strategic reserves could provide some relief, although prolonged disruptions could limit the impact on prices.

Amid current economic challenges, finding cost-effective travel solutions has become increasingly important. Smart mobility applications are emerging as a convenient alternative, helping travelers save both time and effort while providing comfortable and flexible transportation between Egyptian cities. ![Affordable Travel Options for Eid Al-Fitr: inDrive.City to City Practical Solutions for Egyptian Families](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/qype1rfkan.jpeg) One notable example is the inDrive.City to City service. The platform offers a convenient and flexible travel experience, allowing users to book a private ride—either alone or with family and friends—without having to share the trip with other passengers. Another key feature is the ability for passengers and drivers to negotiate the trip price directly, enabling users to find fares that suit their budgets. For instance , a family of four traveling from Cairo to coastal destinations such as Alexandria or Ein Al-Sokhna might pay between EGP 1,050 and EGP 1,500 in total. This brings the cost per person to approximately EGP 300–375. In comparison, a single bus ticket can exceed EGP 500, not including the additional cost of commuting to and from bus stations, which can further increase the total expense for one traveler. As a result, this option can be both more affordable and more convenient. It also saves time, since travelers avoid bus stations and fixed departure schedules; instead, drivers pick passengers up directly from their location and take them to their destination according to the agreed trip details. Safety and security remain key priorities for inDrive.City to City. All drivers on the platform are registered and their documents are verified, helping ensure a reliable travel experience. As many Egyptian families continue to navigate financial pressures, smart mobility services such as inDrive.City to City offer practical solutions. By providing lower travel costs and greater flexibility, these services help families manage their travel budgets more efficiently while enjoying their Eid Al-Fitr holidays with greater ease and comfort.

Elevated energy costs, driven by the tensions in the Middle East, are fueling concerns about global inflation, reducing the likelihood of near-term interest rate cuts by major central banks. This dynamic has strengthened the US dollar and pushed Treasury yields higher, weighing on non-yielding assets such as gold. At the same time, ongoing geopolitical tensions in Eastern Europe, which show little sign of a diplomatic breakthrough, continue to provide support for gold. In addition, sustained central bank purchases also constitute an underlying floor for the precious metal, securing the potential for long-term gains. Looking ahead, attention turns to the upcoming US PCE inflation report on Friday. While signs of disinflation could support gold, the delayed nature of the data could potentially limit the immediate reaction as markets remain focused on the recent surge in energy prices.

The announcement, made at Embedded World 2026 introduces Fusion Studio’s deep integration with Arm’s most widely adopted Edge AI technologies. **Built for scalable edge AI development** Edge AI development spans a diverse landscape of silicon platforms, software frameworks and toolchains. Developers building on these platforms have historically faced a fragmented workflow — assembling separate model conversion utilities, platform-specific compilers, quantization scripts, and deployment tools before they can bring an AI workload to production. Fusion Studio is designed to address this directly. The platform integrates support for Arm Ethos™ NPU architectures, toolchains, and frameworks throughout the development lifecycle — from model training and optimization through firmware build and on-device deployment. **Arm-native capabilities in Fusion Studio** The latest release of Fusion Studio introduces several capabilities purpose-built for the Arm Edge AI ecosystem: - ExecuTorch Support for Arm Ethos-U85 and Ethos-U55: Native support for ExecuTorch-optimized models targeting Arm’s Ethos-U85 and Ethos-U55 NPUs, compiled through the Vela toolchain. Developers can train, quantize, and deploy NPU-optimized models directly from the desktop application without managing command-line conversion tools or framework dependencies. - Ensemble Series Platform Integration: Full agent and model integration with the Alif Semiconductor Ensemble Series development platforms and sensors. Developers can deploy directly to Ensemble Development Kits from within Fusion Studio, with live inference playback and real-time camera capture on target hardware. - Arm SDS Framework Integration: Integration with Arm’s Synchronous Data Stream (SDS) Framework enables dataset capture, playback, and inference workflows directly from Arm-based hardware targets — streamlining the data pipeline from sensor to trained model. - Arm Keil® MDK Integration: Support for Arm’s Keil MDK toolchain, including Fixed Virtual Platform (FVP) simulation and direct Ensemble DevKit deployment, enabling developers to build, test, and iterate without leaving the Fusion Studio environment. - In-Tool MLOps End-to-End Flow: A complete MLOps pipeline — from dataset capture and annotation, through model training with ExecuTorch and Arm Kleidi™AI libraries integration, to firmware build and direct deployment on Arm-based targets — all executed locally with no cloud compute costs. **Expanding on Fusion Studio** The new Arm-native capabilities build on a platform that has been available in beta since 2025. Fusion Studio currently offers a library of over 160 pre-trained and optimized AI models spanning computer vision, audio, and text generation, with 21 industry-specific starter packs designed to accelerate proof-of-concept development. The platform supports deployment to Raspberry Pi 4 and 5 with integrated camera support and real-time inference and runs on PC (CPU/CUDA) and macOS with Apple Silicon host machines. Recent beta releases introduced LLM-powered AI Assistance that provides contextual guidance across model selection, dataset evaluation, training configuration, platform optimization, and troubleshooting — along with training checkpoint and continuation support for interrupted workflows. **Looking ahead** The ModelNova team from embedUR systems continues to invest in expanding Fusion Studio’s capabilities across the Arm ecosystem. Areas of active development include broader virtual platform support for additional Arm reference designs, GPU server offload to accelerate model training times, expanded audio capture and annotation workflows, and the ability to evaluate models directly on host PC and Apple hardware before deploying to target devices. These capabilities are expected to become available through upcoming releases in 2026. **See it at Embedded World 2026** embedUR will demonstrate the full Arm-integrated Fusion Studio workflow at Embedded World 2026, taking place March 10–12 at the Nuremberg Messe in Germany. Visit the ModelNova booth at Hall 4, Booth 4-600 to see ExecuTorch model deployment on Arm Ethos-U NPUs, end-to-end development workflows on Ensemble Series hardware, and the complete in-tool MLOps pipeline. Additionally, a Fusion Studio–built model will be running at the Arm booth (Hall 4, Booth 4-504), demonstrating the production-readiness of models developed and deployed through the platform. **Executive commentary** > “The Arm compute platform is where Edge AI is being built — across industries, across silicon vendors”, said John Marconi, VP of Technology and Architecture at embedUR systems. “We designed Fusion Studio to meet developers where they are, with native support for the tools and frameworks the Arm ecosystem already relies on. This release reflects that commitment.” > > “To unlock the full potential of edge AI, developers need streamlined workflows and production-ready tools,” said John Thompson, Senior Director of Edge AI Software at Arm. “We are laser focused on enabling developer-friendly solutions across the Arm ecosystem to simplify software development and deployment. By advancing more integrated tooling on the Arm compute platform, embedUR is reducing complexity, accelerating innovation, and supporting teams to move from prototype to production more efficiently.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [From Landmark to Leading Role: Scoot and Singapore Tourism Board Recast the Merlion as a Protagonist in Singapore Superfans 2026 Campaign](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/from-landmark-to-leading-role-scoot-and-singapore-tourism-board-recast-the-merlion-as-a-protagonist-in-singapore-superfans-2026-campaign/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![From Landmark to Leading Role: Scoot and Singapore Tourism Board Recast the Merlion as a Protagonist in Singapore Superfans 2026 Campaign](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/vpypc22b03.jpg) **Singapore, Mar 12th:** In partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), Scoot, the low-cost subsidiary of Singapore Airlines (SIA), today unveiled the third edition of its Singapore Superfans campaign, a multi-market campaign that flips the script on how Singapore’s most recognisable icon shows up in culture.

The campaign’s launch film embraces high-energy nostalgia: a classic rock-inspired music video directed by acclaimed Singaporean director Peggy Goh, with music by Bumblebeat. In it, the Merlion ‘breaks character’; no longer a symbol in the background, but a protagonist with agency, urging viewers to go beyond the obvious and see Singapore through fresh lenses, in turn allowing him a well deserved break. The campaign brings this personality to life across Instagram, Red Note and TikTok through content that showcases the Merlion’s character whilst encouraging audience participation. Combining innovative creative technology\* with human storytelling, the approach creates an ongoing narrative that invites viewers to engage and respond, taking the campaign beyond traditional one-off advertising. > **Mr Calvin Chan, Chief Commercial Officer, Scoot, said, “**Travellers today are looking for experiences that feel personal, expressive and connected to culture, rather than being postcard perfect. This campaign reflects that shift by reimagining a familiar icon as an active character people can engage with and respond to. We’re creating new ways for audiences to connect with Singapore, whether they’re discovering it digitally or planning a future visit.” The campaign aligns with STB’s broader ‘We Don’t Wait For Fun’ campaign, which specifically targets Early Career travellers aged 25-39 who prioritise authentic and spontaneous experiences. This demographic represents a key segment for both STB and Scoot, characterised by their desire for culturally immersive travel. By reimagining Singapore’s iconic Merlion as a relatable and engaging protagonist, the campaign speaks directly to this audience’s preference for engaging and shareable experiences. > **Mr John Conceicao, Executive Director, Marketing Partnerships, Planning & Capability Development, Singapore Tourism Board, added,** “For early-career travellers in particular, fun doesn’t wait for perfect plans or ideal moments. Fun starts when curiosity strikes. This collaboration captures that same spirit of ‘We Don’t Wait For Fun’, prompting travellers to explore our destination beyond our most familiar sights. Strategic partnerships, such as this collaboration with Scoot, amplify our reach to target markets whilst allowing us to engage with travellers in more impactful ways.” Launching on 12 March 2026 across Australia, China, India, Indonesia and Malaysia, the campaign extends into a creator-led social challenge: #MerlionMadeMeDoIt. Key opinion leaders in each market will kick off the challenge as they respond to the Merlion’s plea to “pose somewhere else”. In turn, they invite their audiences to propose the next viral photo-op moment in Singapore that does not involve the Merlion. Top entries from each market win trips to Singapore worth up to SGD 3,500, including flight, accommodation and exclusive experiences. To build on the momentum of the social activation, the campaign culminates in a limited-time sale designed to convert inspiration into travel. Travellers in Australia, China, India, Indonesia and Malaysia can enjoy special sale fares on Scoot flights to Singapore from 20 March to 27 March 2026, giving audiences who have engaged with the Merlion-led challenge a timely reason to turn curiosity into reality.

The interactive session, titled **“The Human Algorithm: Scaling Success from Hotmail to HotCoin,”** was held virtually and attracted nearly **6,000 participants**, including founders, students, dreamers, builders, and aspiring entrepreneurs eager to learn how innovative ideas can be transformed into scalable ventures. Delivering the welcome address, **Prof. Dr. Rana Singh**, Director of CIMP, said it was a privilege to host a global technology pioneer whose ideas reshaped the way people communicate. “It is a privilege to host Mr. Sabeer Bhatia, a pioneer whose vision transformed the way the world communicates. At CIMP, we believe in nurturing innovation and entrepreneurial spirit, and today’s session is a unique opportunity for our students, founders, and dreamers to learn directly from a global icon.

Success doesn’t come from following traditional paths; it comes from developing skills, questioning conventions, and daring to think differently. The world rewards those who innovate, not those who imitate,” Bhatia said. Speaking during the event, **Prof. Ramesh Jhadhav**, Professor of Entrepreneurship at JUT Ranchi and BIT Sindri, social entrepreneur, and member of the TiE founding team, highlighted the importance of building strong entrepreneurial ecosystems. “Entrepreneurship is not just about building businesses; it is about creating ecosystems that empower people to dream, innovate, and scale. Sessions like these, with pioneers such as Mr. Sabeer Bhatia, remind us that transformative ideas can come from anywhere, and with the right support, they can change the world. At TiE and in academia, our mission is to nurture this spirit of possibility and guide the next generation of entrepreneurs toward impactful ventures,” he said. The session also included an interactive **question-and-answer segment**, allowing participants to engage directly with Bhatia and gain insights into innovation, startup strategy, and scaling global technology ventures. The event concluded with a vote of thanks by **Kumod Kumar**, CEO of CIMP-BIIF and President of TiE Patna Chapter. “It was truly an insightful session. I would like to thank everyone for being part of this bootcamp. Hosting Mr. Sabeer Bhatia is a great pleasure; his journey from Hotmail to HotCoin shows us that innovation thrives when we challenge tradition and embrace new possibilities. This session is about inspiring founders to think big, act bold, and build ventures that can truly transform society,” he said.

Addressing the valedictory session, **Keshav Bhajanka**, Vice President of the Indian Chamber of Commerce and Executive Director of Century Plyboards (India) Ltd., said social impact initiatives must focus on measurable, sustainable and scalable outcomes rather than merely fulfilling compliance requirements. “Inclusive growth is both an economic and social imperative as India undergoes rapid transformation,” Bhajanka said, underlining the importance of collaboration between government, industry and civil society to address social challenges. He noted that India has lifted around 270 million people out of poverty between 2011 and 2023. CSR and philanthropic funding averaging ₹50,000 crore annually continue to strengthen the country’s social development ecosystem, particularly in education, healthcare and rural development, he added. Speaking at the summit, **Prof. SP Gon Chaudhary**, President of the National Board for IT Research and Training (NBIRT) and Mission Innovation Champion at Mission Innovation, highlighted the importance of sustainable technologies and innovation in achieving long-term development goals. “Achieving sustainable development requires strong focus on sustainable technologies and innovation across sectors,” Chaudhary said. He pointed out that India has made significant progress in renewable energy, with more than 140 GW of solar installations and a national target of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030. According to him, this transition is creating vast opportunities for industries, startups and young entrepreneurs. Chaudhary added that the expansion of solar and wind energy, development of large solar parks, green power corridors and hybrid renewable projects will play a crucial role in reducing dependence on coal-based power. He also highlighted the role of energy efficiency initiatives such as LED lighting, star-rated appliances and rainwater harvesting. The rapid growth of electric vehicles and advances in battery technologies—including lithium-ion, lithium iron phosphate and sodium-ion batteries—are further accelerating the shift towards cleaner energy systems, he said. Pointing to emerging trends, Chaudhary said green buildings, low-carbon construction materials and passive solar architecture are becoming important contributors to sustainability. He stressed that greater investment in research and technological development will be essential to meet climate goals. > “Collective action from researchers, industry, entrepreneurs and society is essential to achieve net-zero emissions by 2070 and protect the planet for future generations,” he added. **Dr Kunal Sarkar**, Director and Senior Consultant Cardiac Surgeon at Manipal Hospitals, commended organisations, NGOs and corporates recognised at the summit for creating meaningful social impact in communities that often lack basic amenities and opportunities. > “India’s healthcare sector has historically grown from a strong foundation of social service and continues to benefit from the awareness and support of people beyond the medical community,” Sarkar said. Reflecting on India’s development since independence, he said the country has come a long way from a time when life expectancy was below 40 years, women’s life expectancy was around 32 years and literacy was under 20%. However, he cautioned that significant challenges remain. “Our literacy rate has stagnated at around 80% for nearly 15 years, and more than 100 districts still record literacy rates of about 50%. This gap calls for collective action,” Sarkar said. Highlighting progress in healthcare, he noted that India now performs nearly 350,000 heart surgeries annually. “The real challenge lies in outreach and ensuring equitable access to healthcare services,” he said. Sarkar also credited non-governmental organisations for driving major public health and education milestones. “Campaigns like polio eradication and community education initiatives led by NGOs have played a crucial role and even inspired national programmes such as Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan,” he said. He added that India has emerged as a global healthcare destination, with patients from wealthier nations travelling to the country for treatment. “India has become a unique country where patients from wealthier nations travel for treatment, reflecting the strength and growing capabilities of our medical sector,” Sarkar said. Urging organisations to look ahead, Sarkar called for greater use of technology. “We must harness technology and artificial intelligence to expand social outreach and deliver services to communities that need them most,” he said. He further noted that India has doubled life expectancy to around 70 years in recent decades, reduced maternal mortality by nearly 300%, and cut infant mortality by about 200%. **Rajiva Sinha**, Chairman of the Rajiva Foundation, said CSR initiatives must prioritise long-term structural change rather than short-term charity. Impact, he said, should be assessed not only by outputs such as distribution drives but by whether communities experience lasting improvement and generational mobility. Referring to development initiatives in West Bengal, Sinha said targeted interventions in the handloom sector have helped restore dignity and recognition to traditional artisans, with the number of Muslin weavers increasing over time. He also cited the transformation of Kantha artisanship in Nanur, where improved market linkages have significantly raised women’s earnings. **Saikat Basu**, CEO of Consultivo, stressed the need for systematic planning and monitoring in CSR initiatives. > “Effective CSR programmes require structured design, credible baselines, systematic implementation and robust monitoring. CSR in India has become an important mechanism for inclusive development and should be guided by equity, sustainability, innovation and collaboration,” Basu said. He also emphasised aligning CSR initiatives with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and ensuring that projects remain viable beyond initial implementation. According to him, meaningful social impact requires partnerships among industry, government and civil society. Delivering the vote of thanks, **Dr Rajeev Singh**, Director General of the ICC, expressed gratitude to speakers, partners and participants for their contributions. > “The discussions at the summit reaffirmed the importance of collaborative action among government, industry, healthcare professionals and civil society to advance inclusive growth, sustainability and innovation in India,” Singh said. “I thank all stakeholders for their continued commitment to driving meaningful social impact.” [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Sennheiser and Barco Drive Seamless Hybrid Collaboration in India with Multi-City Tour](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/sennheiser-and-barco-drive-seamless-hybrid-collaboration-in-india-with-multi-city-tour/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 12:** Sennheiser and Barco successfully concluded a **multi-city collaboration tour across six major Indian cities**, showcasing integrated hybrid meeting solutions to partners and customers throughout February 2026.

That said, conflict continues in the Middle East, and the Strait of Hormuz is still essentially impassable, with Brent having ticked back above the $100bbl mark overnight. While the IEA have, finally, agreed to a 400mln bbl stockpile release, this is more of a ‘sticking plaster’ than anything else, given that you’re replacing a flow with a stock. Regardless, it’s a positive at the margin, while we also had another round of relatively positive comments from President Trump yesterday, who again stated his belief that the war will end ‘soon’ and that there is ‘practically nothing left to target’ in Iran. That is, of course, rhetoric that we’ve heard before from Trump, with the market probably wanting to see ‘action’ rather than ‘words’ when it comes to potential de-escalation at this stage. Besides that, we had a few ECB policymakers (Kazimir & Kazaks) doing an unwanted Trichet tribute act, as well as possibly the most inconsequential US CPI print ever. On the former, with both suggesting that a rate hike could be on the cards as soon as the April meeting, I’d love to know what they’re smoking, given that tightening policy into a significant demand shock is basically the definition of a policy mistake. For what it’s worth, while the hawks are annoyingly vocal, I see essentially no chance of the ECB hiking rates this year, and would be fading the hawkish repricing in EUR STIRs that we’ve seen of late. As for the latter, headline CPI rose 2.4% YoY last month, while core prices rose 2.5% YoY, both being unchanged from the pace seen in January. This doesn’t matter at all, though, not only as the FOMC increasingly lean into the employment side of the dual mandate, but also considering that the commodity price shock stemming from ongoing conflict in the Middle East which will clearly put upwards pressure on headline inflation metrics over coming months. Anyway, markets didn’t do much yesterday, and given how hectic the last week or so has been, I shan’t write here just for the sake of it. Cautious tones seem likely to prevail for the time being, and are doing so this morning, though there are increasing signs – judging by yesterday’s price action – that participants are continuing to try and front-run what many see as an inevitable right-tail outcome, and U-turn away from kinetic action in the Middle East. With there still being a general desire not to get ‘caught short’, there is hence a natural desire not only to shrug-off any headlines regarding ongoing conflict, but also to front-run any potential signs of ‘good news’, especially when waiting for complete clarity on the ‘good news’ front would probably lead to it being far too late to get a position on. I’d expect this to remain the prevailing dynamic in coming sessions. **LOOK AHEAD** – I know I’m saying this every day, but data really doesn’t matter right now. As such, markets are pretty much certain to ignore the weekly US jobless claims stats that we get today, along with last month’s housing starts and building permits figures, with all eyes remaining squarely focused on geopolitical events. The same goes for the 30-year Treasury bond sale due later on, though it is worth bearing in mind that neither the 3- nor the 10-year auction has been especially auspicious this week, auguring somewhat poorly for the auction due later today.

To cool things down, the menu also features refreshing coolers including the Jasmine Blossom Fizz, Cucumber Elderflower Cooler, Mango Ginger Sparkler, and Rose & Lychee Refresher.

Each new opening reinforces the brand’s focus on craft, quality ingredients, and the convivial spirit of Italian hospitality. With more than 20 restaurants now across the country and growing steadily, Toscano continues to build on its legacy as one of India’s fastest-growing authentic Italian dining brands.

Not because something jumps out at you, but because something feels slightly off. A character pauses too long before answering a question. A lie begins to crack. A past mistake refuses to stay buried. The most addictive thrillers thrive in that tension, where every conversation feels loaded, every character seems to be hiding something and every reveal shifts the ground beneath your feet. This streaming slate brings exactly that kind of storytelling. From forensic investigations and murder mysteries to psychological mind games and survival thrill rides, these stories lean into suspense in very different ways. If you are in the mood for twists that arrive when you least expect them, here are five thrillers that deserve a spot on your watchlist. **1.Scarpetta (Prime Video)** Patricia Cornwell’s legendary forensic investigator finally makes her leap to streaming in Prime Video’s Scarpetta. Nicole Kidman leads this highly anticipated thriller series as Dr Kay Scarpetta, a brilliant medical examiner who uses forensic science to speak for the dead. When a chilling serial killer case lands on her desk, Kay is forced to confront a career-defining investigation from 28 years ago that could threaten everything she’s built. As past and present collide, Scarpetta must confront old ghosts while racing to stop a killer who always seems one step ahead. All episodes are now streaming on Prime Video. **2. Accused (Netflix)** Boasting Konkana Sen Sharma and Pratibha Ranta in the lead, Accused follows a renowned gynaecologist whose carefully built life begins to unravel when a series of serious allegations surface against her. As the accusations threaten to destroy both her professional reputation and personal life, the situation grows even more complicated when her wife begins investigating the truth herself, uncovering secrets that blur the line between innocence and guilt. What follows is a gripping psychological thriller about trust, power and the consequences of buried truths. **3. The Housemaid (Apple TV)** Based on Freida McFadden’s wildly popular novel, The Housemaid is a riveting mystery thriller starring Sydney Sweeney, Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar. Directed by Paul Feig, the film follows Millie, who takes a job as a live-in housemaid for the wealthy Winchester couple, hoping for a fresh start. But what begins as the perfect opportunity soon spirals into a dangerous web of secrets, scandal and shifting power, as the truth behind the mansion’s closed doors proves far darker than it seems. **4. Kohrra 2 (Netflix)** After the haunting first season, Netflix’s Kohrra returns to the fields and towns of rural Punjab with another unsettling murder investigation. As Sub-inspector Dhanwant Kaur (Mona Singh) and Assistant Sub-inspector Amarpal Jasjit Garundi (Barun Sobti) join forces to dig deeper into the case, they uncover family tensions, buried resentment, and personal secrets that stretch far beyond the crime itself. What makes this crime thriller enthralling is its slow-burning storytelling, where the emotional lives of the investigators become just as complicated as the case they are trying to solve. **5. Pretty Lethal (Prime Video)** Pretty Lethal is an action-packed thriller that follows five rival ballerinas en route to a prestigious dance competition when their bus breaks down in a remote forest. Forced to take shelter at an eerie roadside inn run by the mysterious former ballet prodigy Devora Kasimer, played by Uma Thurman, the dancers soon realise that something is unsettlingly wrong. As danger closes in, they must put aside their rivalries and rely on years of relentless training, turning their precision, discipline and even pointe shoes into unexpected weapons in a fight for survival. The film is set to premiere on March 18 on Prime Video.

In Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani on Sun Neo, audiences are currently witnessing an intense wedding track between Garv and Vaishnavi. Actress Shreya Jain, who plays Vaishnavi in the show, recently shared her experience of shooting for the wedding sequence and carrying the beautiful bridal look on screen. ![Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani: Shreya Jain Shares Her Bridal Look Experience](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/kpcq6s6suh.jpeg) Speaking about dressing up as a bride, Shreya said that the experience was both exciting and memorable. > “Girls usually love dressing up and getting ready, and when it comes to bridal outfits, the excitement becomes even more special. As actors, we get the chance to wear many different kinds of outfits, and right now in our show Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani, we are shooting for a wedding sequence. The bridal outfit I’m wearing in the show is extremely beautiful, and I truly enjoy carrying it on screen,” she shared. However, she also acknowledged the challenges that come with elaborate television wedding costumes. > “Of course, sometimes the outfits are quite heavy and can feel a little uncomfortable, especially because our shoot hours are long. Wedding sequences in shows usually go on for many days, and since my character Vaishnavi is present in almost every scene of this track, I have to stay in the heavy outfit and jewelry for a long time. It can definitely get tiring at times. But the moment I see myself in the mirror, looking like a bride, I forget all the discomfort and it feels totally worth it,” she added. Talking about the storyline, Shreya revealed that the marriage between Garv and Vaishnavi is not as straightforward as it appears. > “In the story, the marriage between Garv and Vaishnavi is actually a forced one. However, the way Garv is currently pampering Vaishnavi, behaving well with her, and showing affection makes Vaishnavi see him in a slightly different light. She starts feeling that maybe he is the kind of partner she always wished for. But as viewers already know, Garv has his own plans, and very soon the story will take an unexpected turn,” she said. With emotional twists, dramatic moments, and captivating performances, the wedding track promises to keep audiences hooked in the coming episodes.

The company will be launching DiasensTM and GlucoLiveTM, next-generation Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) devices that combine artificial intelligence-powered insights, and integrated remote care capabilities. The CGM system is designed to monitor glucose with an integrated AI layer to provide analytics and enable a closed-loop care ecosystem connecting patients, caregivers, and clinicians in real time. ![Zydus expands companion diagnostics portfolio with the launch of AI-powered Continuous Glucose Monitor Diasens and GlucoLive](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/tz8b0wndar.jpeg) Zydus has partnered with Digicare Health Solutions Private Limited (TatvaCareTM), a healthcare technology company to help the patients gain access to its proprietary, integrated care ecosystem GoodFlipTM to provide AI-powered report analysis, personalised diet and exercise coaching, doctor consultations, diagnostic lab booking, and a comprehensive medical record vault – all in a single mobile application. Speaking on the launch, **Dr. Sharvil Patel, Managing Director, Zydus Lifesciences Limited**, said, > “The launch of DiasensTM and GlucoLiveTM strengthen our companion diagnostics portfolio for chronic disease management. Focused on patient-centric convenience and better quality of life, these CGMs powered by AI technology, will give patients real-time access to key glycaemic data on their mobile devices, simplifying monitoring and control. The convergence of science, innovation, health and technology is critical for patients managing chronic diseases like diabetes, CKD, or organ transplant – offering a quick, reliable, and safe glucose monitoring solution with utmost convenience.” India is home to over 101 million adults living with diabetes – the second-highest burden globally – with an additional 136 million in the pre-diabetic stage, according to the ICMR-INDIAB study published in The Lancet Diabetes & Endocrinology. Diabetes is also the leading cause of Chronic Kidney Disease in India, with 25–40% of CKD patients having a diabetes history. An estimated 2,00,000 patients require kidney transplants and 25,000 require liver transplants annually, many of whom develop new-onset diabetes due to immunosuppressive therapies. Despite this burden, most glucose monitoring in India remains episodic – limited to periodic finger-prick tests or laboratory HbA1c checks every three to six months. Existing CGM devices in the Indian market predominantly rely on NFC technology, requiring patients to manually scan the sensor to retrieve readings. This creates gaps in data continuity, delays clinical intervention, and places the burden of vigilance entirely on the patient. DiasensTM and GlucoLiveTM will enable automatic streaming of glucose readings to the patient’s smartphone every three minutes – without manual scanning – ensuring uninterrupted capture, including overnight reading and in emergencies. Through TatvaCareTM’s GoodFlipTM app, AI analytics will detect trends, flags hypo-/hyperglycaemic episodes, link fluctuations to food and activity, and generate actionable insights. A clinician dashboard will support remote monitoring, early intervention, and data-driven treatment adjustments.

This is in line with our mission of providing quality healthcare and drive healthcare awareness in underserved communities across India. The Boat Clinic model has also proved to be resilient in terms of its functionality, despite the changing river course, seasonal floods, and water levels of the Brahmaputra River. The medical teams on the ground use a combination of boat clinics, fishing boats, and land transport, if needed, to ensure continuity of outpatient services, immunization camps, and health awareness programs, even in adverse climatic conditions.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [Diabetes, Hypertension Major Risk Factors for Kidney Disease, Say CARE Doctors](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/diabetes-hypertension-major-risk-factors-for-kidney-disease-say-care-doctors/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Diabetes, Hypertension Major Risk Factors for Kidney Disease, Say CARE Doctors](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/dhwgik3ezj.jpeg) **Hyderabad, Mar 12:** Marking World Kidney Day 2026, doctors at CARE Hospitals, Hyderabad have raised concern over the growing burden of kidney disease in India and stressed the importance of early detection, regular screening and lifestyle changes to prevent serious kidney complications. Kidneys play a crucial role in filtering waste from the blood, maintaining fluid balance, regulating blood pressure and supporting several vital body functions. However, kidney disease is often referred to as a “silent condition” because it may not show noticeable symptoms until the disease has significantly progressed. Health experts point out that nearly 10–15% of the Indian population is estimated to be affected by some form of chronic kidney disease (CKD), while a large number of cases remain undiagnosed due to lack of awareness and absence of early symptoms. With the increasing prevalence of diabetes and hypertension in India, the risk of kidney disease is also rising, as these conditions remain among the leading causes of kidney failure. Doctors explain that diabetes and hypertension can silently damage the kidneys over time. Persistently high blood sugar levels in people with diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels in the kidneys that filter waste from the blood, gradually reducing their ability to function effectively. Similarly, uncontrolled high blood pressure places excess pressure on these delicate blood vessels, causing them to weaken or narrow, eventually impairing kidney function. **Dr. P. Vikranth Reddy, Clinical Director & Sr. Consultant – Nephrology, CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills**, said, “Many people are unaware that kidney disease can develop silently without clear symptoms in the early stages. Diabetes and high blood pressure are two major risk factors that gradually damage the kidneys over several years. Regular health screening is extremely important, especially for people with these conditions, to detect kidney problems early and prevent serious complications.” Doctors warn that ignoring kidney problems can lead to progressive kidney damage and eventual kidney failure, a stage where the kidneys can no longer perform their essential functions. At this point, patients may require dialysis or kidney transplantation to survive. Untreated kidney disease can also lead to complications such as fluid retention, anemia, bone disorders, cardiovascular disease and electrolyte imbalance. Experts say being aware of early warning signs can help in seeking timely medical care. Some symptoms that may indicate kidney problems include swelling in the feet, ankles or around the eyes, changes in urination patterns such as frequent or reduced urination, foamy or blood-tinged urine, persistent fatigue, nausea or loss of appetite, muscle cramps, sleep disturbances and uncontrolled high blood pressure. Doctors recommend consulting a physician if these symptoms persist, particularly for individuals with diabetes, hypertension, obesity, a family history of kidney disease, those above 40 years of age, or people who frequently use painkillers or certain medications that may affect kidney function. Simple blood and urine tests can help detect kidney disease at an early stage. **Dr. Ratan Jha, Clinical Director & Senior Consultant, Nephrologist & Transplant Physician, CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills**, emphasised the importance of preventive care and lifestyle modification. “Kidney disease is largely preventable if risk factors are managed early. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, controlling blood sugar and blood pressure, following a balanced diet with reduced salt intake, staying physically active and avoiding unnecessary use of painkillers can significantly reduce the risk of kidney damage.” With advancements in medical technology, modern nephrology care now offers advanced diagnostic evaluation, high-efficiency dialysis therapies, comprehensive kidney transplant programs and multidisciplinary management of complex kidney disorders, helping patients manage kidney disease more effectively and improve long-term health outcomes. As part of World Kidney Day, CARE Hospitals will also conduct awareness initiatives, educational sessions and preventive health check-ups to encourage early detection and better management of kidney-related conditions. Doctors emphasise that timely screening, awareness and lifestyle modification remain the most effective ways to prevent kidney disease and reduce the growing burden of kidney failure in India.

While European power is less dependent on gas, the disruption removes approximately 1.5 Mt per week (2.2 bcm) from global LNG markets—equivalent to 19% of global LNG exports. TTF day-ahead gas prices soared above €55/MWh ($18.7/mmBtu) on 9 March following QatarEnergy’s force majeure declaration the previous week. European gas storage sits 10% below last year’s levels following January’s cold spell. Europe’s ability to switch from gas to coal-fired generations in the power sector has declined sharply since 2022, with a 77% gas price increase now reducing gas generation by only 5%. “Europe added 306 TWh of low carbon power supply between 2022 and 2025, reducing fossil fuel dependence and resulting in the contribution of gas and coal falling by 292 TWh,” said Peter Osbaldstone, Research Director, Europe Power at Wood Mackenzie. “But gas generators still set marginal prices on a frequent basis in major markets. When TTF rises €30/MWh, German power prices follow with €40/MWh increases.” Osbaldstone added: “We’ve traded one vulnerability for another. Less overall gas dependence improves energy security. While gas’ role in power price formation varies by country, in Europe’s connected market its influence can be hard to avoid. Losing alternative supplies, such as coal capacity, means gas price shocks hit harder – Europe needs gas generation so it pays the price.” **Key Facts:** - Strait of Hormuz disruption removes 1.5 Mt LNG per week (2.2 bcm, or 19% of global exports) - TTF day-ahead prices topped €55/MWh on 9 March 2026, up from around €30/MWh pre-conflict - Gas correlation with power prices: R² = 0.97 in Germany, R² = 0.99 in Italy - European gas storage: 10% below 2025 levels after January 2026 cold spell - Low carbon supply share: 66% in 2025, up from 51% in 2022 - 306 TWh low carbon supply added between 2022 and 2025 - Fuel-switching capability in major power markets limited: 77% gas price increase reduces gas generation by only 5% - Potential coal switching capacity: approximately 20 TWh of additional power supply, primarily in Germany **Gas sets marginal prices despite reduced power supply share** Renewable and low carbon sources now provide 66% of European supply, up from 56% in 2022. Between 2022 and 2025, low carbon supply increased by 306 TWh. Gas and coal’s contribution fell by 292 TWh over the same period. However, gas-fired plants continue setting prices in Italy, Great Britain and Germany as the source remains critical to system balance during periods when the availability of renewables is lower. . While Germany’s share of gas-fired supply has been lower than markets like Italy, Spain and Great Britain, it’s remained quite flat (around 18%) from 2022 to 2025 as nuclear phase-out completed and coal retirement mount. Looking forward, we expect the role of gas in German power price setting to increase towards 2030, as coal retirements continue to mount, a marked contrast to other markets. The limited fuel-switching flexibility locks in the linkage between gas and power prices. Wood Mackenzie analysis shows a 77% increase in gas prices—from €36/MWh to €64/MWh—reduces gas generation by only 5%. Coal-fired supply could increase by approximately 20 TWh, with German generators adding 12 TWh. Germany also maintains 4.5 GW of hard coal in strategic reserve, though with an average age of 50 years and limited recent running the capability of these generators to offer sustained support is uncertain. **Policy intervention probability increases** European governments spent €60 billion on crisis-related electricity subsidies in both 2022 and 2023 – despite lower wholesale prices in the latter of these years. Germany introduced subsidies to support industrial energy costs covering 2026-2028. During the 2022 energy crisis, governments implemented revenue caps ranging from €40/MWh to €180/MWh depending on technology and market. Spain and Portugal introduced agas price cap mechanism (€40-65/MWh), limiting the bids of gas-generators in Spain and Portugal and suppressing wholesale power prices from June 2022 through May 2023. “Affordability pressure is real and policy makers are very sensitive to it,” Osbaldstone said. “But the best policy outcomes must be time-limited and ideally avoid distorting wholesale price signals. We learned in 2022 that blunt interventions create unintended consequences.” Potential 2026 interventions include revenue caps, windfall taxes on generators, consumer subsidies and temporary market rule changes following 2022 precedents. **Energy security returns to policy priority** A prolonged disruption will strengthen the strategic case for renewables, nuclear, grid expansion and storage to reduce import dependence. Nuclear policy shifted in 2025. Sweden established state loan support of $25 billion for new nuclear build. Italy lifted its longstanding moratorium. Poland is advancing six reactors with $17 billion in direct investment support. Spain reconsidered operational extensions for plants approaching decommissioning dates originally set for completion by 2035. The REPowerEU initiative, launched May 2022 in response to Russia’s invasive of Ukraine and Europe’s ensuing gas supply disruption, delivered an 18% reduction in gas demand by end-2023 through voluntary measures. The program set targets for 45% renewable share by 2030 and strengthened gas storage requirements. The EU remains legally bound to 90% emissions reduction by 2040. Policy shifts will focus on sequencing and emphasis rather than reduced ambition. Europe’s political momentum remains firmly behind decarbonisation and reducing reliance on imported energy, but the path is becoming more complex. “Another supply shock this soon after 2022 will crystallise decisions that have moved slowly,” Osbaldstone said. “Nuclear timelines, grid investment, storage deployment, interconnection priorities—all get forced up the political agenda when energy security is threatened.” **Market outlook depends on conflict duration and infrastructure damage** Whether prices normalise quickly or risk premia persist depends on conflict duration and damage to export infrastructure. Assuming no damage to Qatar’s LNG facilities, restart would require approximately two weeks as production trains return sequentially. Construction at Qatar’s mega-trains will likely pause for the conflict’s duration, creating potential longer-term supply implications. Before the conflict, the global gas market appeared balanced at $11/mmBtu (€31/MWh), with more than 35 Mt of new LNG supply expected in 2026 and subdued Asian demand.

The AI learns tasks through human demonstrations and executes complex tasks step by step based on a hierarchical task execution framework. The technology is expected to contribute to the automation of labor-intensive repetitive work and reduce human workload in homes, offices, as well as retail and logistics environments. The Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials (KIMM, President Seog-Hyeon Ryu) announced that a research team led by Dr. Jeong-Jung Kim, Head of the Department of AI Machinery at the Research Institute of AI Robotics, has developed a robot task AI capable of performing everyday activities such as organizing items, clearing tables, and manipulating objects. The system consists of three key technologies: task extraction technology, which converts human task demonstrations into usable data; task virtualization (simulation) technology, which recreates real environments in virtual space for training and validation; and hierarchical task execution AI, which enables robots to perform tasks sequentially and systematically. The robot task AI is designed to learn and operate in a manner similar to how humans perform tasks. By observing demonstrations, the system learns task procedures and performs them through hierarchical reasoning and execution. In addition, the use of virtualized environments enables data generation, training, and validation under diverse conditions, allowing the robot to maintain stable task performance even when environmental conditions change. Through its hierarchical task execution structure, complex everyday tasks can be broken down into sequential steps and carried out systematically. Existing robot task technologies have often been limited to single-task datasets or simulation-based validation. In contrast, the technology developed by the KIMM research team integrates the entire development pipeline, including the construction of datasets covering diverse everyday tasks, virtualization of real-world environments, hierarchical task execution AI, and integration with real robot systems followed by verification in real environments. The research team implemented hierarchical task execution technology capable of handling different types of tasks reliably, achieving a success rate of over 90 percent across various tasks. The system was integrated with an actual robot platform and tested in real-world environments, confirming its practical applicability. With strong generalization for repetitive tasks and adaptability to environmental changes, the technology can be expanded to various real-world applications. The developed robot task AI can be widely applied across various service scenarios, including household and office service tasks, product arrangement in retail stores, and picking and organizing work in logistics environments. The research team plans to further expand the range of tasks that robots can perform and enhance their adaptability to changes in spaces and objects to increase their usability in real service environments. > **Dr. Jeong-Jung Kim, Head of the Department of AI Machinery at KIMM, said,** “This robot task AI learns from demonstrations and performs tasks through hierarchical reasoning, much like humans do. Its key strength lies in its generalized task capability that can be applied across a wide range of everyday activities.” He added, “By building datasets that include diverse tasks, establishing validation environments, and verifying the technology using real robot systems, we confirmed that robots can reliably support repetitive everyday work. This technology is expected to significantly improve work efficiency while reducing the burden on people.” > > **Principal Researcher Doo-Yeol Koh explained,** “Accurately collecting real human task data during the data acquisition stage is crucial for improving the performance of robot task AI systems. To achieve this, we developed an interface that enables precise task data collection while maintaining a high degree of freedom during human demonstrations.” This research was conducted as part of KIMM’s institutional research program titled “Development of Core Technologies for the RoGeTA Framework (Robot General Task AI) for Diverse Daily Services (2024–2029).” The project aims to develop robot intelligence technologies capable of supporting everyday tasks and covers the entire development cycle from dataset construction and real-world virtualization to validation in real environments. The research team also plans to release the collected task datasets and virtualized models of real environments so that other researchers can freely utilize them, providing foundational resources for future service robots and industrial applications.

Nearly twenty thousand Airtel employees—from leadership teams to functional specialists—stepped out of their offices and into the field, **working alongside** frontline teams to engage directly with customers, **shadowing** field engineers, **visiting** homes and shops, and **interacting** at retail and service centres to gain an unfiltered view of the issues that matter most. Customer Day at Airtel serves as a deliberate pause for the organisation to introspect and ask a simple but critical question: what more can we do for our customers? > Commenting on the initiative, **Shashwat Sharma, Managing Director and CEO, Airtel India**, said: “Customer Day is an important reminder of our responsibility to listen deeply, challenge ourselves and act with urgency. It strengthens our commitment to solving pain points, simplifying experiences and continuously raising the standard of service we deliver to millions of our customers every day.” **This ritual and the culture of solving for customer pain-points** has been central to many of Airtel’s customer‑first innovations. From stronger **spam and fraud protection** to simpler, more intuitive digital journeys through the **Airtel app** and wider access to **new‑age, AI‑enabled tools**, Airtel’s solutions have been shaped by listening. Customer Day also reinforces Airtel’s belief that experience improvement is not episodic, but continuous. By listening closely to customers and acting decisively on their feedback, the company continues to simplify processes, remove friction and design services that are reliable, intuitive and responsive. It unites Airtel behind a single, enduring purpose: to be a company where customer obsession is not a slogan, but a culture—one that drives constant improvement and ensures that every decision begins and ends with the customer.

Escalating tensions in the Middle East and supply disruptions continue to propel energy prices upward, raising fears of inflationary pressures and keeping yields supported. Markets could continue to reassess the odds of a Federal Reserve monetary policy easing, gradually reducing the number of interest rate cuts expected. Geopolitical tensions could also continue to drive demand for the dollar as a safe-haven asset. While the latest inflation data in the US came up in line with expectations, attention could remain focused on the impact of rising oil prices. Core inflation for February cooled to 0.2%, while headline inflation rose to 0.3% on a monthly basis. Looking ahead, the focus could turn to this week’s key economic data, including GDP growth and PCE figures, which could influence the Fed’s next move and market expectations. Signs of an economic slowdown or disinflation could put pressure on the dollar. However, the developments in the Middle East could continue to be the main driver for the currency. In the meantime, today’s initial jobless claims could also introduce volatility into the markets.

Held at the Magadi Road Maternity Hospital, the event provided critical medical education and nutritional support to 62 women, including **Pourakarmikas, ASHA workers, and staff from the government hospital**. The initiative targeted a significant but often overlooked demographic: the women who serve as the backbone of the city’s infrastructure. Through clinical screening of **54 participants**, Miror identified a staggering need for early intervention, discovering that **84% of attendees were in the perimenopause stage, while 16% had reached menopause**. > “This data underscores an urgent need for localised advocacy and early-stage hormonal support within these professional sectors,” stated **Mr Sanjith Shetty, Founder & CEO, Miror Therapeutics.** The program moved beyond theory by providing actionable health solutions. Under the guidance of the **Indian Menopause Society (IMS) and Miror Representatives,** attendees discussed Perimenopause, Menopause, and Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). While the event provided foundational dietary consultations, Miror has announced a strategic pivot for future outreach. Moving forward, the company will prioritise Gynaecologist-led advocacy to provide the “medical seal of authority” required for complex symptom management and HRT eligibility. **Mr Shetty** also stated that “Our mission is to ensure every woman leaves with clinical clarity,” the report concludes. “By shifting toward clinical gynaecology, we aim to foster higher medical literacy and a more confident adoption of evidence-based treatments”.

Across the country, **innovative corporations** and **thousands of small businesses** are driving growth, creating jobs, and shaping the future of the economy. Two stories stand out: the global expansion of high-tech pharmaceutical companies like **PolyPeptide Group AG**, and the exponential growth of **Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs)** through India’s **Udyam portal**. Together, they illustrate a nation where **technology, innovation, and grassroots entrepreneurship converge**. ## Pharma Innovation: PolyPeptide’s Global Leap PolyPeptide, a Swiss pharmaceutical company specializing in **peptide-based medicines**, has recently caught the attention of global investors with its **strong 2026 margin outlook**. Peptides—short chains of amino acids—are the foundation of many modern medicines, including treatments for **diabetes, obesity, and cancer**. The company’s financial performance reflects the surging demand for peptide drugs: - **2025 revenue:** €389 million, marking a **15.6% increase** from the previous year - **EBITDA margin:** 11–12%, showcasing operational efficiency - **2026 forecast:** Expected revenue growth of 20–25%, with even higher profit margins The announcement of strong future margins led investors to push PolyPeptide’s stock up by 6–7%, highlighting the **financial confidence in innovative pharma**. For India, the rise of companies like PolyPeptide underscores the importance of **research, development, and advanced manufacturing** in achieving global competitiveness. Pharmaceutical innovation is more than a financial story—it reflects **scientific progress, better healthcare solutions, and international market leadership**. India, with its growing biotech sector, has the potential to replicate this model and establish itself as a hub for peptide-based and other high-value medicines. ## MSMEs: India’s Employment Engine While high-tech corporations drive global competitiveness, the **true backbone of India’s domestic economy** is its MSMEs. According to recent government data, **7.83 crore MSMEs** have registered on the **Udyam portal**, collectively generating **34.50 crore jobs**. These numbers reveal the massive scale and impact of India’s small business ecosystem. ### Understanding MSMEs **MSMEs (Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises)** are defined based on their **investment in machinery or equipment**, and they form the lifeblood of India’s economy: - **Micro enterprises:** Often family-run or single-location businesses - **Small enterprises:** Medium-scale units with a larger workforce and investments - **Medium enterprises:** Larger operations that contribute significantly to manufacturing and services **Why MSMEs matter:** - **Employment creation:** They provide livelihoods to millions, particularly in rural and semi-urban areas - **Innovation and local solutions:** Startups and small businesses often create innovative products and services tailored to local markets - **Economic contribution:** MSMEs contribute significantly to India’s GDP and act as stabilizers in local economies ### Udyam Portal: Empowering Entrepreneurs Digitally The **Udyam portal**, launched by the Government of India, allows businesses to **register online quickly and transparently**, helping them formalize operations and access benefits. **Key advantages of registration:** 1. **Ease of registration:** Fully digital, minimal paperwork 2. **Government recognition:** Eligibility for loans, subsidies, and tax benefits 3. **Policy insights:** Helps the government design targeted support programs using verified data 4. **Improved credit access:** Registered businesses gain easier access to financing By formalizing 7.83 crore enterprises, the Udyam portal has not only enhanced **transparency and operational efficiency** but also enabled **millions of entrepreneurs to scale their businesses** and contribute meaningfully to India’s economic growth. ## Connecting Corporate Growth with Grassroots Development Though PolyPeptide and India’s MSMEs operate at vastly different scales, their stories share a common theme: **growth through innovation and structure**. - **Innovation drives global impact:** Companies like PolyPeptide push scientific boundaries, expand markets, and generate investor confidence. - **Formalization drives inclusive growth:** MSMEs, empowered through the Udyam portal, create jobs, stimulate local economies, and bring stability. - **Digital tools catalyze progress:** Advanced R&D platforms for corporations and online registration portals for MSMEs ensure **efficiency, scalability, and accountability**. Together, these sectors illustrate a **dual growth model**: global competitiveness paired with inclusive domestic development. ## Looking Ahead: India’s Economic Future The combined force of **high-tech corporate growth** and **MSME-driven employment** positions India as a unique global economic player. High-margin pharmaceutical companies showcase the potential for **scientific and technological leadership**, while MSMEs demonstrate the **power of grassroots entrepreneurship**. For policymakers, investors, and entrepreneurs, the message is clear: **fostering innovation and supporting small businesses simultaneously** is essential for sustainable, long-term growth. As India continues to innovate, digitize, and empower its entrepreneurs, the synergy between **corporate excellence and grassroots enterprise** will define the next decade of economic expansion. **Categories:** business --- ### [The Euro Declines for the Third Consecutive Day Amid Uncertainty Over the End of the War in the Middle East.](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/the-euro-declines-for-the-third-consecutive-day-amid-uncertainty-over-the-end-of-the-war-in-the-middle-east/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** The euro decreased by 0.16% against the dollar today and is trading at around 1.1547, close to its lowest level this year. The uncertainty over war decisions in the Middle East and the ongoing rise in oil prices despite market interventions continue to put downward pressure on the euro. This pressure persists even as the gap between US Treasuries and Eurozone yields narrows. However, concerns about inflation and supply chain issues are preventing the euro from benefiting from the carry-trade effect. The yield differential between the benchmark 10-year German Bund and its U.S. Treasury counterpart has widened toward its most pronounced level since 2023, currently at −1.28 percentage points, yet the euro remains unable to capitalize on this narrowing spread. Despite the relative rise in European yields, the single currency is struggling to gain traction as geopolitical risk premiums and safe-haven flows continue to bolster the U.S. dollar. The euro remains under pressure because Europe’s high dependence on energy imports makes its economy significantly more vulnerable to the stagflationary shock of the Iran conflict than the energy-independent United States. The erratic and unrealistic statements by US President Donald Trump also keep the market in a constant state of tension, which may prevent it from benefiting from signs that the war cannot last much longer. For example, Trump stated that the Strait of Hormuz is safe for vessels and claimed the Iranian Navy is completely destroyed; however, the conflict between Iran and U.S.-Israeli forces has significantly escalated. According to Reuters, explosive-laden Iranian boats appear to have attacked two fuel tankers in Iraqi waters, setting them on fire on Wednesday, after projectiles struck four vessels in Gulf waters. The recent attacks on ships associated with the U.S. and Europe represent an escalation in the conflict between Iran and U.S.-Israeli forces, increasing the number of ships targeted in the region since fighting began to at least 16. The situation could worsen. An Iranian official threatened on Wednesday to close another strait, similar to the Strait of Hormuz, if the United States makes “any mistake,” as he put it. The unnamed military official said, “Any American mistake will complicate the situation in the region, and Iran has phased and escalating military plans.” He added, “The region could enter a regional war soon, and we still have many cards to play,” Al Jazeera reported. He continued, “If Washington makes a strategic mistake, another strait will be in a similar situation to the Strait of Hormuz.” This suggests that the escalation could involve the Bab al-Mandab Strait, and a widespread closure of it could lead to further disruptions in global supply chains and help drive inflation. Meanwhile, oil prices resume their upward rally, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent futures settling above $90 and $95 per barrel, respectively. That came even amid the surprise intervention into the oil market. The Wall Street Journal reports that the Trump administration made a sudden reversal, pressuring the IEA to authorize a historic 400-million-barrel oil release, including over 100 million barrels from the U.S., despite breaking protocol. Crude prices rose by over 5% after the announcement, as doubts persisted about whether the release could offset prolonged closures of the Strait of Hormuz. The market seems to think these interventions are not sustainable. With these sentiments in the energy market, the euro might be trapped in a bearish trend, as the market recalls the aftermath of the end of the war in Ukraine, the brief spike in oil prices, and the widespread contraction in business and industrial activity. In fact, this time might be even worse for the euro than 2022. A prolonged period of high energy prices could hinder Europe’s economic recovery, as the EU depends on fossil fuel imports for about 58% of its energy. Rising global energy costs, driven by dwindling supply from the Gulf and a bidding war for remaining resources, have increased European gas prices by over 50% this month, potentially impacting eurozone inflation three times as much as in the U.S., especially in heavily dependent countries like Italy. Despite current prices of around €50 per megawatt-hour, significantly lower than the €300 level seen after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, few economists expect a crisis to mirror that upheaval. With these inflation and supply chain risks, the eurozone might struggle. Multiple surveys published over the past few years, following the inflation surge, indicate that the eurozone has been unable to sustain growth in this economic environment. This situation threatens to lead to a prolonged decline in the euro‘s value. These surveys, including S&P Global PMI reports, GfK Consumer Climate, Ifo Business Climate, and Sentix Investor Confidence, all reported that rising inflation and higher rates caused economic activity to contract. To make matters worse for the euro, European Central Bank monetary policy tools might not support the euro in tightening again, as in 2022, or in maintaining the current tightening for a prolonged period. According to the Wall Street Journal, the European Central Bank and the Bank of England are unlikely to repeat the aggressive rate-hike cycle of 2022, despite the recent surge in oil prices following the conflict in the Middle East. Economists argue that the current economic landscape differs decisively from the post-pandemic era; inflation was already near the 2% target before the strikes, and interest rates are already at neutral or restrictive levels. While markets recently amped up bets on potential rate hikes to avoid a stagflationary shock, weaker consumer demand and precariously low sentiment may actually necessitate looser, rather than tighter, monetary policy. Conversely, the euro‘s best chance to escape its current situation depends on the hope that the United States might abandon its war in the region. Recent reports have indicated that the Trump administration may be considering alternatives to ending the war and claiming a victory one way or another, influenced by rising energy and fuel prices and unsustainable stockpiles of defensive munitions.

Reflecting this deep integration, Godrej Jersey’s Lactography Report reveals that 75.8% of Indians are now “active dairy consumers”, households that regularly consume milk alongside multiple dairy products such as curd, paneer, ghee, butter, lassi, yogurt and cheese. Far from being an occasional add-on, dairy emerges as a daily, multi-product nutrition system embedded in Indian food culture across regions and generations. Instead of a single glass of milk, Indian homes are building what the report terms a “dairy basket.” Among active dairy consumers, curd (80%), paneer (76%), butter (74%) and ghee (71%) are the most preferred products nationally, followed by lassi (63%), cheese (58%), yogurt (57%) and traditional milk-based sweets (55%). This breadth of usage underlines dairy’s role across cooking, meal accompaniments, snacking and celebration. **One India, Many Dairy Plates** While dairy forms a common thread across Indian households, the way it appears on the plate varies meaningfully by region. Curd stands out as the most universal expression of dairy, woven seamlessly into everyday meals across the country from curd rice and buttermilk in the South to raita and dahi in the North making it a true pan-Indian staple. Paneer, once largely associated with North Indian cuisine, has steadily expanded its footprint nationwide. Today, it features across regional cooking styles and meal formats, reflecting its evolution into a widely accepted vegetarian protein for both traditional and contemporary dishes. At the same time, indulgent dairy continues to hold its place. Ghee, butter and traditional milk-based sweets remain deeply embedded in household routines and celebrations, reinforcing dairy’s emotional and cultural significance even as consumers become more mindful about health and balance. Dairy has also adapted effortlessly to modern, protein-conscious lifestyles, particularly among younger and urban consumers. Beyond traditional formats, it now features prominently in smoothies, shakes and café-style beverages, seamlessly blending into contemporary routines focused on energy, fitness and nourishment. Milk and dairy-based beverages increasingly sit alongside coffee, protein shakes and smoothies, no longer confined to childhood rituals but embraced as versatile vehicles for daily energy, recovery and performance. **Commenting on the findings, Shantanu Raj, Head of Marketing, Godrej Jersey, said,** “India has moved decisively beyond the idea of ‘just a glass of milk’. What we are witnessing is the evolution of dairy from a single-source staple to a dynamic, value-added category spanning everyday essentials like paneer and milk-based beverages to high-protein products that deliver the same great taste with added functionality. At Godrej Jersey, our journey reflects this shift. We are building on the trust and familiarity that milk represents, while expanding into formats that offer greater nutrition, convenience, and versatility for modern consumers. As preferences evolve, our focus remains on delivering products that seamlessly combine taste, protein, and everyday relevance, reimagining dairy for today’s India.” By mapping what Indians consume, how often and in which formats, these insights offer a clear view into how the country eats today—confirming dairy’s role as a core pillar of everyday household nutrition, versatile enough to travel from the traditional thali to the gym bottle, and from home kitchens to modern café-style beverages.

The programme is designed to strengthen care and support systems for women living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in the State. The programme aims to strengthen care pathways, awareness and support systems for women navigating this complex neurological condition. The initiative was formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between Directorate of Medical Education and Research (DMER), Punjab Govt and Roche Pharma India at the Punjab Civil Secretariat in the esteemed presence of **Sh. Balbir Singh (Health Minister – Punjab); Sh. Kumar Rahul (Principal Secretary – Health); Dr. Hitinder Kaur ( Director – Health Services); Dr. Rupinder Bakshi (Joint Director – Medical Education & Research) and Dr. Dheeraj Khurana (Professor of Neurology, PGIMER Chandigarh).** ![Roche India Partners with Punjab Government to Launch ‘NeuroSakhi’, India’s First State-Level Initiative to Strengthen Multiple Sclerosis Care](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/bw8dtfzlce.jpg) MS is a chronic neurological disorder that attacks the central nervous system and can lead to progressive disability if not diagnosed and treated early. An estimated 1.8 lakh people are living with MS in India, with nearly 2,900 patients in Punjab alone. Striking most often between the ages of 20 and 40 — the prime of life — the disease disproportionately affects women, who account for nearly 70% of cases. Beyond visible disability, MS carries a heavy “invisible” burden — debilitating fatigue, vision disturbances, cognitive impairment and severe neurological symptoms that are often misunderstood or overlooked. For many women, the condition unfolds at a time when they are building careers, raising families and shaping their futures, making the physical, emotional and social toll even more profound. Despite growing global awareness, many patients in India continue to face delayed diagnosis, fragmented care pathways and limited access to sustained long-term support. The NeuroSakhi initiative aims to address these gaps by fostering stronger awareness, enabling patient support and strengthening engagement between healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers across Punjab. **Strengthening the MS Care Ecosystem** Key pillars of the initiative include: - **Expert-Led Clinical Guidance**: An expert group led by the Department of Neurology at PGIMER Chandigarh will guide the development of evidence-based treatment pathways and recommendations for early diagnosis and timely treatment initiation. - **Hub-and-Spoke Model for Care Delivery**: PGIMER Chandigarh will function as the central clinical hub, while Government Medical Colleges in Amritsar, Patiala and Faridkot will serve as regional spokes, enabling coordinated multidisciplinary care for Multiple Sclerosis across the State. - **Improving Access to Advanced Therapies**: The initiative will work toward improving the affordability and accessibility of disease-modifying therapies and high-efficacy treatments through government formulary inclusion and sustainable funding mechanisms. - **Capacity Building for Healthcare Professionals**: State-wide training programs will strengthen the ability of physicians to identify MS symptoms early, ensure timely referrals and adopt evidence-based management practices. As part of this effort, PGIMER Neurological Society will support training for Government Medical Colleges serving, through a hub-and-spoke model. Under the collaboration framework, DMER Punjab will lead State-wide implementation and governance, PGIMER Chandigarh will anchor clinical and academic leadership, and Roche Pharma India will act as a knowledge and technical partner, supporting scientific exchange, capacity building and evidence generation. By building a coordinated care ecosystem, NeuroSakhi aims to improve access to timely diagnosis, specialised treatment and long-term care for people living with Multiple Sclerosis in Punjab. The initiative will initially be implemented over a one-year period, with the potential to be adopted and replicated across more States in India.

According to the medical bodies, these procedures have traditionally been performed by specialists such as dermatologists and plastic surgeons trained under the regulatory framework of the National Medical Commission (NMC). Aesthetic procedures and dermatology, as **Dr Vinay Singh, President IADVL** mentioned, demand additional training. In addition to the MBBS degree, a dermatologist training program requires 3 years of residency at a postgraduate level in dermatology at certain accredited medical schools. The training includes condensed curriculum of various skin ailments, hair problems, and advanced procedures in dermatology. **Dr Rajat Gupta Senior Consultant Plastic Surgeon, Delhi** warned that allowing professionals without comprehensive medical training in skin diseases, hair disorders and surgical complication management to perform such procedures could dilute training standards and increase risks for patients. As pointed out by **Dr Aditya Aggarwal Senior Consultant Plastic Surgery, Medicity Medanta Hospital**, the surgery requires knowledge regarding the biology of the skin, the disorders of the hair, how to manage infections, and how to manage complications. They also pointed out that hair transplants are modern medical procedure and should only be conducted by Registered Medical Practitioners (RMPs) who are specialised in that area. In the past year, there has been a growing number of unqualified people allegedly performing aesthetic medical procedures and the Kanpur hair transplant case was the most pronounced example. Two engineers died after hair transplants that were allegedly done by a dental surgeon. Other cases of unqualified medical practitioners performing aesthetic procedures have been documented in many parts of the Country including severe infections, loss of sight, and many complications as a result. **Dr Shital Poojary Hon Secretary General National IADVL** stated “With one of the biggest youth demographics, and in the wake of a surging demand for skin, hair and other aesthetic procedures in recent years (e.g. Botox, hair transplants and thread lifts), India’s youth has been the target consumer of aesthetic and dermatological marketing. However, skin and hair concerns has resulted in frequent misuse of social media, and dependency on medications from chemists and other non-medically trained personnel.” **Dr Deepika Pandhi President Delhi State** IADVL warned fraudulent marketing listings. Some websites advertising medical services promote “dermatologists” as a result of paid ad placements, and have little to no verified medical qualifications regarding the practice. This is a situation that continues to endanger the health of the public’. The associations have mentioned that better formal and legal control mechanisms to regulate the marketing of medical practices. Legal proceedings have been initiated before the Hon’ble High Court of Judicature at Madras by the Tamil Nadu branch of IADVL challenging the Dental Council of India’s guidelines dated 06 December 2022 permitting certain aesthetic and hair transplant procedures by oral and maxillofacial surgeons. During the hearing on 21 January 2026, the Court noted a regulatory conflict between the Dental Council of India and the National Medical Commission and directed the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to examine the matter and submit its response to ensure regulatory clarity in the interest of patient safety. **The associations called upon:** The government to issue comprehensive guidelines and ensure strict implementation of existing regulations to curb quackery and safeguard public health. Patients to verify the doctor’s qualifications and registration with the state medical council before undergoing any skin, hair or cosmetic treatment. The registration number should be clearly mentioned on the prescription. The public to remain alert and avoid falling prey to misleading advertisements or treatments offered by unlicensed practitioners.

SUI, or involuntary urinary leakage, affects an estimated 40 million Americans and 90 million Europeans. SUI significantly impacts quality of life, as it can be debilitating, and often leads to depression, low self-esteem and social stigma. The implant is placed around the urethral duct and is controlled based on the patient’s activity, without the need for complex manipulation, intending to provide patients with ease of use and a better quality of life than current options. > “We have seen firsthand the shortcomings of current SUI treatment options for our male and female patients,**” said study co-principal investigator Melissa Kaufman, MD, PhD, the Patricia and Rodes Hart Professor of Urologic Surgery and chief of Reconstructive Urology and Pelvic Health at Vanderbilt Health**. “That’s why we’re so excited to be leading the SOPHIA2 trial, as it’s showing promise to provide significant improvements in addressing these issues.” Kaufman is leading the trial in the U.S. along with Andrew Peterson, MD, professor of Urology at Duke University School of Medicine. The trial will enroll approximately 140 male patients with SUI across clinical trial sites in the U.S. and France. To be eligible for enrollment, patients must be at least 22 years old, have a primary diagnosis of SUI for at least 6 months, and have been deemed an appropriate candidate for surgery. The primary end point is the responder rate at 26 weeks following device activation. The study’s secondary end point is the proportion of patients who experience a change in overall impression of improvement from baseline to 26 weeks. Data from the first-in-human SOPHIA study of the UroActive implant in men was presented at the American Urological Association 2024 Annual Meeting in San Antonio, showing positive outcomes on all primary and secondary end points. According to the investigators, the devices were successfully implanted and activated in all six patients, and there were no explants nor revisions required. There was one severe adverse event, consisting of a hematoma after surgery with slow urinary stream, which was self-resolved. The UroActive device is also under investigation in women with SUI and has demonstrated comparable results in the clinical feasibility study.

By moving beyond simple salon bookings, Style Lounge is introducing a data-driven approach to beauty that replaces influencer-led guesswork with measurable skin diagnostics. The platform’s center piece is a sophisticated **AI-Powered Skin Analysis** tool. By analyzing a simple smartphone selfie, the system utilizes advanced computer vision and deep-learning models trained on different datasets to evaluate ten distinct skin parameters—including acne, hydration, pigmentation, and structural laxity. This technology detects micro-contrast variations and texture depth patterns invisible to the naked eye, providing users with objective skin scores and early warning indicators within seconds. “At Style Lounge, we believe that the future of beauty must be diagnostic,” said **Deepak Gupta, Co-Founder.** “Most consumers today treat skin symptoms rather than root causes, often worsening their condition with mismatched products. Our AI platform transforms the beauty journey from subjective opinion into a precise, data-driven science. By diagnosing first, we ensure every treatment and product recommendation is as unique as the user’s skin.” The platform’s **Intelligent Recommendation Engine** then maps these diagnostic results directly to curated salon treatments and routines. Whether a user requires hyaluronic acid-based therapies for low hydration or targeted collagen-boosting treatments for enlarged pores, Style Lounge ensures a “Data → Diagnosis → Decision” workflow that reduces product misuse and promotes long-term skin health. Integrated with an **AI Beauty Assistant** and a seamless booking system, Style Lounge provides a comprehensive ecosystem where users can discover verified salons, compare treatments, and receive guaranteed service fulfillment based on their unique biological needs.

Designed to lower barriers to on-chain participation, Sikka.fun allows anyone to create, discover, and engage with coins using transparent, rule-based mechanics at no additional cost. Sikka.fun can be viewed as India’s answer to the global coin launch trend popularised by platforms like Pump.fun, but purpose-built for Indian users and communities. While global platforms demonstrated how simplified interfaces could democratize coin creation, Sikka.fun adapts the model with a stronger focus on accessibility, clarity, and responsible participation. Every coin launched on Sikka.fun follows a transparent, fixed structure designed to ensure equal access. Coins are created with a supply of 1 billion coins, allocated as follows: 70% for public trading via a bonding curve, 20% reserved for decentralized exchange (DEX) liquidity, and 10% dedicated to an on-chain referral pool. There are no pre-sales, no team allocations, and no private rounds. All participants interact with the same pricing mechanics from the moment a coin goes live. > “India’s next wave of on-chain users will not come from traders; it will come from creators and communities. Sikka.fun is built for that reality: simple, mobile-native, and governed by transparent rules instead of insider dynamics,” **said Nischal Shetty, Co-founder of Shardeum** Sikka.fun introduces a protocol-level innovation aimed at improving transparency in coin discovery and distribution. Referral rewards are embedded directly into the system and distributed automatically on-chain. Referrers receive 2% of purchased coins, with every reward verifiable on-chain, replacing the off-chain, opaque promotion models that dominate many existing launch ecosystems. Sikka.fun introduces a different approach: fair–access mechanics where every participant interacts with the same pricing logic from the moment a coin goes live. Built on Shardeum, Sikka.fun leverages low-cost, scalable infrastructure to support open participation at scale.

Insights from the Economic Survey of India and projections in the[ Union Budget of India 2026–27](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/union-budget-2026-27-strengthens-indias-digital-backbone-paving-way-for-global-data-cloud-and-ai-leadership/ "Union Budget 2026–27 Strengthens India’s Digital Backbone, Paving Way for Global Data, Cloud, and AI Leadership") indicate that the country’s growth trajectory is being shaped by three powerful forces: a revival in rural consumption, the rapid expansion of financial services and fintech, and an ambitious push toward infrastructure development. These drivers collectively form the backbone of India’s growth strategy, supporting domestic demand, improving financial inclusion, and strengthening connectivity across regions. ## Rural India Re-emerges as a Consumption Powerhouse Rural markets are once again becoming a significant contributor to India’s economic growth. After several years of uneven demand, improved agricultural output and better monsoon conditions have strengthened farm incomes, allowing rural households to increase spending. Government welfare initiatives and support measures have also enhanced financial stability for rural families. As a result, purchasing power in villages and small towns has improved steadily, leading to a noticeable rise in consumption. What makes this shift particularly important is the change in spending patterns. Rural consumers are moving beyond basic necessities and increasingly investing in discretionary goods such as home improvements, household appliances, and entry-level vehicles. This evolving demand signals rising aspirations and growing economic confidence across rural India. With nearly two-thirds of the population living outside major cities, stronger rural consumption provides a powerful foundation for sustained domestic demand. ## Financial Services and Fintech Transform the Economy India’s financial landscape has undergone a remarkable transformation, driven by technological innovation and digital infrastructure. The country now hosts one of the world’s largest fintech ecosystems, with hundreds of companies developing solutions that make financial services more accessible and efficient. A key catalyst behind this transformation is the widespread adoption of the Unified Payments Interface (UPI), which has revolutionized digital transactions. From small retailers to large businesses, digital payments have become an integral part of everyday economic activity. Fintech companies are no longer limited to payment services. Today, many platforms provide a comprehensive range of financial solutions, including digital lending, personal investment platforms, insurance technology, and wealth management services. These innovations are helping expand access to credit and financial tools for individuals and small businesses across the country. At the same time, traditional banking institutions—particularly those within the Public Sector Banks of India—have reported stronger financial performance, supported by healthier balance sheets and rising credit demand. The combination of fintech innovation and banking sector stability is strengthening the overall financial ecosystem. ## Infrastructure Investment: Building the Foundations of Growth Infrastructure development remains a central priority in India’s economic strategy. Large-scale investment in transportation networks is aimed at improving connectivity, reducing logistics costs, and boosting long-term productivity. The Ministry of Railways (India) continues to expand and modernize the national rail network, including plans for high-speed rail corridors connecting major economic centers such as Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Varanasi. Simultaneously, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (India) is expanding the country’s highway network to facilitate faster freight movement and better regional connectivity. These infrastructure investments have far-reaching economic benefits. Construction projects generate employment, increase industrial demand for materials, and enhance connectivity between production centers and markets. Over time, these improvements create a stronger foundation for trade, investment, and economic expansion. ## A Growth Model Built on Three Pillars India’s economic momentum in FY26 reflects a balanced growth model driven by consumption, financial innovation, and infrastructure investment. Rural demand is expanding the domestic market, fintech and financial services are widening access to capital, and infrastructure development is improving the efficiency of transportation and logistics networks. Together, these three pillars are reinforcing one another. As connectivity improves, businesses gain better access to markets. As financial services expand, entrepreneurs and consumers gain greater access to capital. And as incomes rise, consumption continues to strengthen. This interconnected cycle is helping position India for sustained economic growth and a more inclusive development trajectory in the years ahead. **Categories:** business --- ### [AVer’s TR615 PTZ Camera Achieves Zoom Rooms Certification](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/avers-tr615-ptz-camera-achieves-zoom-rooms-certification/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![AVer’s TR615 PTZ Camera Achieves Zoom Rooms Certification](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/tmrdw2xexc.png) Taipei, Taiwan – Mar 12: AVer Information Inc., an award-winning provider of AI audio-video solutions, announces the TR615 AI Auto Tracking camera has obtained Zoom Rooms ProAV Camera certification.

Bringing together policymakers, industry leaders, scientists, and agri-experts, the event sparked critical conversations around soil health, crop nutrition, and their broader impact on public health. The context of the roundtable was set by Dr Jatinder Singh, Dy. Secretary General, PHDCCI along with a welcome address by Mr N.K Aggarwal, Chair, Chemicals & Plastic Committee, PHDCCI and moderation by Ms Gayatri Sharma, Director, PHDCCI. > In attendance of the dignitaries present at the roundtable, Chief Guest **Dr P.K. Singh, Agriculture Commissioner, Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare, Government of India** said – “ India’s agricultural transformation must begin with a shift in thinking—from a purely production-oriented approach to one that protects farmers, strengthens soil health, and ensures long-term sustainability. The government is encouraging states to develop clear, measurable roadmaps for sustainable agriculture, including targets such as improving soil organic carbon and overall soil health. Integrated approaches that combine soil conservation, crop diversification, water management, and farmer-centric technologies will be essential to securing long-term food and nutritional security. At the same time, reviving traditional food systems and promoting dietary diversity will play an important role in strengthening both nutritional security and sustainable agriculture in India.“ > > **Mr N.K Aggarwal, Chair, Chemicals & Plastic Committee, PHDCCI** welcomed the dignitaries with his address stating – “While agricultural technologies are widely adopted across India, micronutrient management remains critically under- addressed. Deficiencies in zinc and other micronutrients significantly impact both soil fertility and crop quality. Compounding this, overexploitation of soil through multiple cropping cycles demands urgent attention to soil recharging and restoration. As India emerges as a global food security powerhouse with growing export potential, the responsibility to produce nutritious, quality food intensifies. It is hoped that today’s roundtable moves beyond discussion, translating deliberations into actionable policy recommendations that effectively reach and are implemented by the government. > > While setting the context of the roundtable, **Dr Jatinder Singh, Dy. Secretary General, PHDCCI** stated – India produces 351 million tonnes of food grains annually, yet faces a serious nutritional crisis. Severe soil degradation causes deficiencies in nitrogen, zinc, and iron, while overuse of subsidized urea contaminates food and the environment. NFHS data reveals 35.5% of children under five are stunted and 32.1% are underweight — a stark reminder that production alone cannot eliminate “hidden hunger.” Today’s discussion on “Khed, Khurak, and Sehat” aims to collectively address these challenges through sustainable farming, soil restoration, and improved nutritional outcomes.” > > **Mr. N.K. Arora, Secretary of the Governing Council of KAKV Foundation** and Knowledge Partner for the discussion, showcased a presentation to the dignitaries.

Their usage has expanded significantly—from hospitals and diagnostic laboratories to food processing units, salons, hospitality establishments, and even street-level retail outlets. However, this surge in usage has also revealed a worrying practice: disposable **single-use gloves** are often treated as **single-day-use gloves**, posing serious risks to public health, worker safety, and hygiene standards. ![Disposable Single-Use Gloves: India’s Deadly Reuse Trap](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7fni76w6g8.jpeg) **Understanding Single-Use Gloves** Single-use gloves are designed to be worn **once for a specific task or interaction and discarded immediately after use**. They are not meant for prolonged wear or repeated tasks. However, in many Indian workplaces, disposable gloves are used continuously across multiple patients, food items, or surfaces. This practice—often driven by cost constraints, workload pressures, or lack of awareness—contradicts scientific recommendations and regulatory guidelines. According to **Gaurav Loria, Group Chief – Operations, Experience & Safety (Senior Vice President) at Apollo Hospitals**, strict single-use policies are critical in healthcare environments. > *“We implement a strict policy of single-use gloves for medical procedures, sample collection, and patient-facing roles. This ensures the protective barrier of gloves is maintained for both patients and healthcare professionals. Given the high patient load in India, the chances of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) increase significantly when gloves are reused. Using standard-quality gloves for every patient interaction can reduce HAIs by 20–30%.”* **Public Health Implications** From a public health standpoint, gloves act only as a **temporary protective barrier**. Once contaminated, they can transfer microorganisms to other surfaces, patients, or food products. In healthcare settings, this increases the risk of **Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs)**. In food handling environments, it can lead to cross-contamination and non-compliance with hygiene regulations. Under the **Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006**, proper hygiene practices—including correct use of protective equipment—are mandatory. Wearing the same gloves across multiple food preparation stages or while handling cash undermines contamination control and may lead to regulatory violations. **Material Integrity and Regulatory Standards** The protective performance of disposable gloves—whether nitrile, latex, or vinyl—is validated under controlled conditions. In India, the **Bureau of Indian Standards** sets parameters such as freedom from pinholes, tensile strength, and durability. However, prolonged glove usage exposes materials to sweat, friction, sanitisers, and chemicals. This can lead to **micro-tears and material fatigue**, which may not be visible but significantly compromise protective performance. Medical gloves are classified as medical devices by the **Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation**, which approves them strictly for **single-use applications**. Extending usage beyond the intended design exposes healthcare facilities to compliance risks and liability. ### Occupational Health Concerns Continuous glove use also affects **occupational health**. Prolonged wear traps heat and moisture, increasing the risk of **contact dermatitis and skin irritation** among frontline workers. For nurses, laboratory technicians, food handlers, and sanitation staff, discomfort may result in inconsistent glove usage or delayed replacement—further weakening hygiene practices. ### Global Guidance and Indian Compliance Global health bodies such as the **World Health Organization** and the **Centers for Disease Control and Prevention** recommend changing gloves **between tasks, between patients, after contamination, and whenever compromised**. Importantly, gloves are **not a substitute for hand hygiene**, a principle reinforced in Indian hospital standard operating procedures and food safety guidelines. **Anindith Reddy, Co-founder of Wadi Surgicals Pvt Ltd (Enliva)**, stresses that correct usage is as important as product quality. “**Single-use disposable gloves are designed strictly for one task and one interaction—not for all-day wear. The widespread ‘single-day use’ practice leads to invisible micro-tears, turning a protective barrier into a pathway for infections and contamination. The ‘One Task, One Pair’ approach is essential for frontline safety, patient protection, and regulatory compliance.**” ### Regulatory Enforcement and the Need for Correct Usage India is strengthening its regulatory framework through **Quality Control Orders (QCOs)**, mandatory **BIS certification**, and increased enforcement by CDSCO and FSSAI. However, product quality alone cannot ensure safety if **usage practices remain incorrect**. ### Conclusion: One Task, One Interaction, One Pair The reuse of disposable gloves in healthcare and food sectors directly violates **CDSCO and FSSAI standards**. More importantly, it increases the risk of pathogen transmission—including infections such as **MRSA**—in already strained clinical and diagnostic environments. To ensure safety, compliance, and effective infection control, workplaces must adopt a clear protocol: **One Task. One Interaction. One Pair.** [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [91Springboard Dominates Industry Forums with Multiple Wins; CEO Anshu Sarin Named ‘Flex Space Leader of the Year’](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/91springboard-dominates-industry-forums-with-multiple-wins-ceo-anshu-sarin-named-flex-space-leader-of-the-year/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![91Springboard Dominates Industry Forums with Multiple Wins; CEO Anshu Sarin Named ‘Flex Space Leader of the Year’](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/z6ru2oo1oj.jpeg) **Mumbai, Mar 12th:** 91Springboard, one of India’s leading comprehensive workspace solutions provider, has solidified its position as an industry pioneer by sweeping multiple prestigious accolades across major industry forums.

The 62-year-old patient had initially been admitted for what the family expected would be a short hospital stay. During the admission, doctors informed them that immunotherapy had not been effective and the disease had progressed, making palliative care the most appropriate course of treatment. While home-based care was discussed, the family felt her condition required continuous medical supervision. “We wanted her to remain in a setting where immediate medical support was available if needed. Continuing care at home did not seem medically advisable in her condition,” a family member said. The family explored several palliative care options in Guwahati before opting for Peerless Hospital’s structured palliative care package, which was arranged within 24 hours of discussion with the medical team. The patient was shifted to a single cabin where a family member could remain round the clock. She was placed under continuous vital monitoring, with nurses conducting regular manual checks of blood pressure, temperature and oxygen saturation. Preventive measures such as an air mattress were used to reduce the risk of bedsores, while medications were administered on schedule and her positioning was adjusted regularly for comfort. A dietician reviewed her meals and adjusted food choices based on medical requirements and personal preferences. Mobility support was also encouraged, with wheelchair outings and assisted short walks when possible. Daily physiotherapy sessions were provided to help maintain strength and movement. The patient’s primary physician reviewed her condition twice a day, and specialists were consulted whenever required. Over time, the patient was able to resume oral intake after previously requiring assisted feeding, and both her feeding tube and catheter were removed. “After months without appetite, being able to eat normally again meant a great deal to her,” the family member said. **Dr. Gautam Kumar Das, CEO at Peerless Hospital Guwahati**, said palliative care focuses on improving comfort and quality of life when curative treatment is no longer effective. “Palliative care is often misunderstood as only end-of-life care. In reality, it is about managing symptoms, maintaining dignity, and supporting both patients and families during serious illness. Many families want to remain closely involved in caring for their loved ones but also need the reassurance of medical supervision. Structured palliative care within a hospital environment can provide that balance of clinical support and family presence,” he said. The family said the structured care plan helped them remain close to the patient while ensuring consistent medical supervision during a difficult phase of treatment.

(NASDAQ: API), Agora (NASDAQ: API), a global leader in real-time engagement, today unveiled its Conversational AI Agent solutions for **Customer Service** and **Sales & Marketing –** built on a unified platform designed to solve the technical friction that has kept Conversational AI from true enterprise-grade deployment. This arrives as the industry reaches a critical inflection point. According to Gartner, by the end of 2027, conversational AI agents are expected to automate 70% of customer interactions, and by 2028, AI agents are projected to outnumber human sellers 10 to 1. Despite this massive opportunity, many businesses remain constrained by legacy systems that are simply unable to address long wait times, rigid call routing, or inefficient outreach – creating operational strain while eroding customer trust. **The Infrastructure Powering Enterprise Voice AI** Agora’s comprehensive Conversational AI platform eliminates high-stakes production hurdles by unifying three core technologies into a single, high-performance stack: - **Agent Studio:** A visual, no-code environment that enables enterprises to rapidly build, test, and deploy sophisticated voice AI agents. - **Conversational AI Engine:** An advanced orchestration layer that integrates Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), Large Language Models (LLMs), and Text-to-Speech (TTS) for seamless real-time workflows. - **SDRTN® (Software-Defined Real-Time Network):** Agora’s foundational, globally distributed infrastructure that ensures sub-second latency and reliability. By leveraging this high-performance stack, Agora delivers a level of operational reliability that competing voice AI solutions cannot match – ensuring **natural conversational flow** through ultra-low-latency interactions, **crystal-clear communication** on congested networks, and **accurate responses** in noisy environments through AI noise suppression and voice locking. > “Voice is the most natural way we communicate, but delivering real-time conversational AI at scale requires infrastructure built specifically for it,” said **Tony Zhao, Founder and CEO of Agora**. “By solving the latency and orchestration challenges that have historically limited voice AI, we’re enabling companies to finally deploy conversational agents at scale without compromising on the quality of the customer experience.” Currently, global organizations are already deploying these capabilities to transform high-volume customer service and outbound engagement workflows. **Transforming Customer Conversations with Voice AI **AI Customer Service Agents: Scaling Support Without Compromising Experience** As customer interaction volumes increase, contact centers face mounting pressure to maintain service quality while managing operational costs. Agora’s AI Customer Service Agents solve this by automating routine inquiries – such as appointment reminders, shipping updates, technical troubleshooting, and billing inquiries – providing consistent, real-time support that allows human agents to focus on more complex cases. Key advantages: - **Instant availability:** Provide 24/7 automated support to resolve common inquiries without waiting. - **Natural conversations:** Facilitate fluid, human-like dialogue using advanced interruption-aware voice technology. - **Operational efficiency:** Maximize resolution rates through intelligent automation and seamless escalations to live human agents when needed. **AI Sales & Marketing Agents: Intelligent Outreach at Scale** Outbound engagement has historically relied on rigid dialers and scripts that feel impersonal to customers. Agora’s AI Sales & Marketing Agents solve this by bringing conversational intelligence to outreach – powering high-impact use cases like debt collection, payment processing, outbound lead qualification, interactive surveys, and real-time event polls – through natural, real-time voice interactions. Key advantages: - **Context-aware engagement:** Navigate complex objections and adapt messaging dynamically in real time. - **Automated qualification:** Identify high-intent buyers and schedule qualified meetings directly. - **Higher productivity:** Enable sales teams to focus on closing deals rather than manual dialing and screening. > “The challenge with traditional market research is the friction of the initial outreach. By using Agora’s Voice AI agents to invite participants to our survey platform, we’ve seen a 10% conversion rate – a figure that was previously unattainable with manual dialing,” said **Alejandro Pinto Villalba, Executive Director at FasesBI**. “The agents handle the initial pitch and incentive explanation flawlessly, allowing us to scale our data collection and reward distribution without increasing our operational headcount.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [S8UL Signs Pokémon GO World Champion Ved ‘Beelzeboy’ Bamb](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/s8ul-signs-pokemon-go-world-champion-ved-beelzeboy-bamb/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![S8UL Signs Pokémon GO World Champion Ved ‘Beelzeboy’ Bamb](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/5nyaxcseny.png) **Mumbai, Mar 12th:** S8UL Esports, a global name in esports and gaming content, has announced the signing of Ved “Beelzeboy” Bamb, the Pokémon GO World Champion, marking a significant milestone as the organisation continues to expand its competitive footprint across global esports titles. Beelzeboy made history in August 2025 when he clinched the Pokémon GO World Championship, defeating Spain’s Leo “P4T0M4N” Marín in a thrilling grand final at Anaheim, California. With this victory, he earned the distinction of becoming India’s first–ever world champion in the realm of esports, placing the country firmly on the global competitive gaming map. > Commenting on the signing, **Animesh Agarwal, aka 8Bit Thug, Co-Founder of S8UL and 8Bit Creatives, said,** “Pokémon is where it all began for many of us as kids – the first battles, the first rivalries, and the first love for competitive play. Our commitment to the Pokémon esports ecosystem continues as we welcome Beelzeboy to the S8UL family. His historic victory showed the world what Indian players are capable of, and we’re excited for what lies ahead as we keep building from the roots of gaming to the global stage.” Hailing from Nagpur, Ved began playing Pokémon GO when the game launched in 2016 and steadily rose through the competitive circuit with consistent performances across regional and international tournaments. Prior to winning the world championship, he had already established himself as one of the top Pokémon GO competitors globally, including securing the Pokémon GO India National Championship title in 2024 and finishing among the top players internationally. Outside of esports, Ved is a software developer by profession, balancing his career in technology with his passion for competitive gaming, a journey that highlights the growing diversity of paths within the esports ecosystem. Expressing his excitement about joining the organisation, Ved “Beelzeboy” Bamb said, “Winning the Pokémon GO World Championship was a dream come true, and it was incredibly special to represent India on the biggest stage. Joining S8UL is another exciting chapter in that journey. The organisation has consistently elevated Indian esports globally, and I’m thrilled to be part of a team that shares the same vision of pushing boundaries. Together, we’ll try our best to bring many more laurels for the country and inspire the next generation of players.” With this addition, S8UL continues to strengthen its legacy of representing India on the world stage across multiple titles. As one of the country’s most decorated esports organisations, S8UL fields championship-caliber teams across several competitive games while also operating one of the world’s most influential gaming content groups. Beelzeboy’s arrival not only adds a world champion to S8UL’s roster but also reinforces the organisation’s commitment to nurturing top-tier talent and expanding India’s presence in emerging global esports ecosystems.

Despite their indispensable contribution to daily life, their efforts often go unnoticed. Through this campaign film, Ashirvad by Aliaxis expresses gratitude to the community that ensures water—the most essential resource of life—reaches every household. The film is directed by **Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury**, a National Award-winning filmmaker known for his acclaimed work including the film **Pink**, and features music composed by renowned musician **Bickram Ghosh**. The concept and script have been developed by **Leo India**. Blending storytelling with a meaningful message, the film highlights the lives of people who rarely receive recognition for their contributions. Across India, millions of professionals are involved in the plumbing sector—designing, installing, and maintaining water supply systems that sustain everyday life. As a company closely connected to the plumbing ecosystem, Ashirvad by Aliaxis sees this initiative as a step toward reshaping public perception and recognizing plumbers as an essential pillar of the country’s infrastructure. Speaking about the campaign, **Amit Gheji, Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer at Ashirvad by Aliaxis**, said: > *“People know us as a company that makes high-quality pipes, and that is true. But water doesn’t flow through pipes alone—it flows because of a skilled and hardworking workforce behind them. Plumbers carry the responsibility of bringing the most essential resource—water—into our homes. This film draws attention to that unseen truth.”* The film opens in a classroom, where a young child is asked to speak about his father’s profession. Hesitant at first, the child pauses—until his father, who is a plumber, steps forward and recites a poem posing a simple yet profound question: **“Have you ever wondered how water reaches you?”** The question echoes through different settings in the film—hospitals, construction sites, restaurant kitchens, remote villages, and even a space center preparing for a rocket launch. Each scene reinforces a powerful truth: behind every functioning water system, there is a plumber. In the film’s closing moments, one of the classmates remarks, *“Akhil’s father is a superhero.”* The line underscores the campaign’s message that plumbers are the real, yet often overlooked, heroes behind modern water systems. The campaign concludes with its central message: > *“Ensuring water reaches every street, every home, and every corner of the country is not easy. It is time we give plumbers the respect they truly deserve.”* Reflecting on the project, director **Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury** said: > *“Very few brand films celebrate everyday people as heroes. What drew me to this story was the chance to see the world through the eyes of a plumber—someone whose work makes life easier for millions but is rarely acknowledged. The emotional connection between a father and son makes this narrative particularly powerful.”* The campaign concept and screenplay were developed by **Leo India**, using the father-son relationship to portray both professional pride and emotional depth. **Rajiv Rakshit, Executive Director at Leo**, added: > *“We wanted to bring attention to a community that rarely gets recognition, despite playing a crucial role in our daily lives. By telling the story through a father and son, we were able to highlight both the emotional and professional pride associated with the profession.”* The campaign also aligns with Ashirvad by Aliaxis’ brand philosophy, **“Science Inside the Pipe,”** which reflects the engineering, innovation, and expertise that power modern plumbing systems. Through this film, the company hopes to spark a broader conversation about the professionals who ensure water reaches every street and every home across the country [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [SMK Enters International Motorsport, Becomes First Global Indian Helmet Brand in a Road to MotoGP Championship](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/smk-enters-international-motorsport-becomes-first-global-indian-helmet-brand-in-a-road-to-motogp-championship/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![SMK Enters International Motorsport, Becomes First Global Indian Helmet Brand in a Road to MotoGP Championship](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/yuvthtsf8k.jpeg) **Mumbai, Mar 12:** SMK Helmets, a global Indian helmet brand driven by continuous product innovation, technological expertise and an uncompromising pursuit of excellence, has partnered the Moto4 Latin Cup as the official technical helmet sponsor.

Scheduled to open soon, the development signals a pivotal shift in the evolution of Bhiwandi — from a dominant industrial and warehousing hub to an emerging mixed-use retail and leisure destination within the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR). ![Outlet Mall of India by Bhumi World to Feature 152 Plus Fashion & Lifestyle Brands](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/d6mdov3wbc.png) Designed as a next-generation shopping destination, the mall will bring together 100 leading fashion and lifestyle brands under a year-round discount format, offering consumers access to premium labels at compelling value. Beyond retail, visitors can expect a thoughtfully planned environment with curated F&B experiences, entertainment zones, and a premium ambience that combines aspiration with accessibility positioning it as Bhiwandi’s new landmark and a full-day destination for families and shoppers alike. The retail portfolio features marquee international and national names including **Armani exchange, Superdry, La-Martina, Gas, Lacoste, Levi’s, Asics, Rare Rabbit, U.S Polo Assn, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Jack & Jones, Only, Vero Moda, Metro, Crocs, The Souled Store, Bonkers, The Bear House, Jockey, Giordano, Techno Sport, Hidesign, Kora** among many others.

Globally, outlet retail has evolved into high-footfall, destination-driven ecosystems offering premium brands at accessible prices. As India witnesses a structural shift toward organised outlet formats, Outlet Mall of India is positioned to lead this transition in Maharashtra not as a discount extension of a conventional mall, but as a dedicated outlet ecosystem. The format enables brands to streamline inventory while giving consumers consistent access to aspirational labels at compelling value. It also creates an important entry point for Gen Z and first-time branded shoppers, making premium fashion more accessible to a wider audience. Speaking on the launch, **Prakash Patel**, Managing Director, Bhumi World, shared** “Outlet Mall of India is not just another retail development—it represents the evolution of Bhiwandi from an industrial powerhouse to a vibrant mixed-use retail and leisure destination. Our promise is simple: big brands, bigger experience, always on discount.** Consumers today are value-conscious but unwilling to compromise on environment or brand aspiration. We have created a premium, organized outlet platform that delivers exactly that—value without compromise. This is Maharashtra’s first-of-its-kind outlet mall, and we believe it will set a new benchmark for retail in the region.” Strategically positioned within the larger Bhumi World integrated ecosystem, the mall benefits from a well-established industrial and business catchment along with strong connectivity across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region . With seamless access to key infrastructure corridors such as the Samruddhi Mahamarg, the Virar–Alibaug Corridor, the upcoming Navi Mumbai International Airport, and the Bullet Train route, the development is advantageously located to drive sustained footfall. The project is expected to attract consumers not only from Bhiwandi but also from Thane, Navi Mumbai, North Mumbai, and emerging peripheral markets firmly establishing it as a high-potential retail and consumption hub within the region. With over 152+ brands and a differentiated retail format, Outlet Mall of India is poised to reshape shopping behaviour in Maharashtra—transforming discount retail into an experiential, aspirational category.

Designed to transition effortlessly from festive celebrations to professional settings, the new **Navratri Collection** features a striking range of **rings, hand chains, necklaces, and bracelets** that blend tradition with contemporary elegance. ![Archana Aggarwal Timeless Jewellery Unveils Contemporary Navratri Collection Inspired by the Spirit of the Divine Feminine](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/wakt3cbqav.jpg) The collection draws its inspiration from the brand’s iconic masterpiece, **The Bulbul**—a signature creation that symbolizes empowerment, creativity, and the beauty of embracing vulnerability. More than just a jewellery piece, The Bulbul embodies the spirit of fearless expression and individuality. Crafted with a vibrant combination of **coral, emeralds, and diamonds**, the collection reflects the energy and abundance associated with Navratri. The designs evoke the natural world of the Bulbul bird—emerald berries and coral branches—translated into versatile pieces of wearable art suitable for everyday elegance. At the heart of the original Bulbul design lies a rare **naturally two-toned shaded coral**, a feature that symbolizes the duality present in every woman—**strength and softness, tradition and modernity, vulnerability and power**. The coral’s natural gradient creates a distinctive visual identity that cannot be artificially replicated, ensuring that every Bulbul creation remains unique, much like the woman who wears it. The craftsmanship of the Navratri Collection reflects the brand’s deep commitment to heritage techniques. The jewellery is created using the traditional **Ghaat technique (Gadhayi)**, where skilled artisans carefully hand-form the base structure of each piece, providing a strong and enduring foundation. Select pieces also feature **Kharbooja carving**, a classic Indian jewellery technique where emeralds are intricately hand-carved with delicate grooves, enhancing their natural brilliance and light reflection—resembling the textured surface of a muskmelon. Speaking about the collection, **Gayatri Aggarwal** said: > *“The Bulbul is the heart and soul of our brand and represents the pinnacle of our craftsmanship. The naturally two-toned coral reflects the beautiful complexities of life—how light and shadow coexist and how strength emerges from vulnerability. With this Navratri collection, we wanted to capture that spirit in versatile pieces that accompany a woman through all her journeys, from the most celebratory to everyday moments.”* The **Navratri Collection** is a celebration of authenticity, individuality, and timeless artistry—inviting women to embrace their inner strength while making a powerful style statement.

GCCs are in-house global centres set up by multinational organisations to drive strategic, operational, and innovation-led work. Study at Great Place To Work India examines how GCCs are evolving as employers in an increasingly competitive talent landscape. The research reveals that 85 per cent of employees working in GCCs report a positive workplace experience, placing the sector close to the broader India Inc. benchmark and underscoring the growing importance of workplace culture as GCCs scale in size and complexity. India’s GCC ecosystem remains highly concentrated, with 94 per cent of centres located across six key cities – Bengaluru, Hyderabad, NCR, Mumbai, Pune, and Chennai. The number of operational GCCs is expected to cross 2,100 by 2028, growing at an estimated compound annual growth rate of 8 per cent through FY 2028. GCCs are also projected to account for nearly 35 to 40 per cent of India’s total office space demand this year, reflecting their expanding economic and employment footprint. “*India’s GCCs have evolved from being identified as mere back offices to becoming innovation hubs, centres of excellence, and strategic business partners on the global stage. GCCs are no more IT support centers, but global hubs delivering high-value work across industries. GCCs have been creating an equitable workplace compared to the rest of India Inc., but the next steps are to bring them to the forefront of trust, growth, and recognition through decisive, time-bound action. As GCCs scale, recruiting high-quality talent and upskilling employees will increasingly go hand in hand with setting up the right culture and a compelling Employee Value Proposition. The GCCs that integrate innovation, strategic thinking, and great people experience will thrive by building a credible path forward*.”**Balbir Singh, CEO, Great Place To Work India** The Great Place To Work study highlights how GCCs are performing across cultural dimensions. Trust levels within GCCs currently stand at 82 per cent, broadly aligned with the Information Technology sector, while trailing industries such as retail, healthcare, and manufacturing. This indicates a stable foundation of trust, alongside a clear opportunity for GCCs to further enhance credibility, fairness, and leadership effectiveness to meet and exceed broader industry benchmarks. GCCs demonstrate high levels of camaraderie, reflecting healthy peer collaboration; however, employee sentiment in 2025 showed a decline across specific areas, such as perceptions of fair pay and profit-sharing, management reliability and approachability, clarity of organisational vision, involvement in decision-making, job security, recognition, and overall fun at work. These findings point to the need for more deliberate investments in leadership capability, communication, and recognition as organisations grow in scale. At the same time, GCCs continue to outperform much of India Inc. on several critical aspects of the employee experience. Employees consistently cite world-class infrastructure, access to advanced technologies, and flexible work models that support work-life balance as key strengths. GCCs also demonstrate a stronger inclusion profile, with women comprising one in three employees, compared to the national average of 26% per cent. The workforce remains predominantly young, with 93 per cent of employees belonging to Gen Z and millennial cohorts, intensifying the war for talent and reinforcing the importance of strong workplace culture in attracting and retaining future-ready skills. The study further finds that organisations recognised as Great Place To Work Certified™ report five per cent fewer employees considering leaving, nine per cent fewer employees experiencing burnout, and eleven per cent more employees feeling confident about their executive leadership’s judgment. These organisations also demonstrate higher productivity, stronger employee advocacy, improved retention, better customer service outcomes, and greater organisational agility. As AI and hybrid work models continue to reshape GCC operations, the study underscores that workplace culture will be a critical differentiator for sustainable growth. Beyond technology and scale, GCCs that intentionally build trust, invest in leadership development, and embed learning, recognition, and purpose into everyday work will be better positioned to compete for talent. Great Place To Work continues to partner with GCCs across India to help them leverage culture as a strategic advantage in an increasingly dynamic global talent market.

The initiative celebrated shared traditions, creativity and learning through a series of immersive experiences with local communities. ![Kolkata Hosts Welsh Youth Volunteers for Cultural Exchange](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/nhdfmapd7x.jpg) The exchange programme is rooted in a long-standing connection between Wales and Kolkata. Over 20 years ago, the Urdd and Christian Aid launched a campaign called ‘Welcome Calcutta’ to raise awareness and educate young people in Wales about the lives of youth in India. The campaign eventually led to an exchange programme between Urdd members and young women growing up in Kolkata. Building on this legacy, and with support from the Welsh Government, the Urdd launched a partnership with Her Future Coalition (HFC) during the Year of Wales in India 2024. As part of this collaboration, a group of ten young Welsh volunteers have been able to support HFC’s humanitarian work through community engagement visits in 2025 and again in 2026. The programme began with a visit to the learning centre of Her Future Coalition in Kolkata, where the volunteers interacted with women entrepreneurs and gained insights into initiatives supporting sustainable livelihoods. During a session led by Srabani Sanskar from Hamari Muskaan, the group learned about community-driven efforts focused on empowering women and girls. The volunteers also observed artisans crafting purses and bags from recycled fabrics, highlighting how skill-based livelihoods can support economic independence. Cultural exchange remained central to the programme throughout the visit. The Welsh volunteers introduced elements of their heritage through storytelling, folk dance and traditional games, while also collaborating with participants to create a symbolic Wales–India banner featuring Welsh, Bengali and Hindi text. In Shantiniketan, the group engaged with educators and students at Suchana, participating in art, craft and language exchanges across six interactive sessions involving approximately 150 students. Visits to Suchana’s mobile libraries in nearby villages created joyful shared learning moments, as the volunteers introduced Welsh words and cultural activities while children participated in storytelling sessions, outdoor games and creative workshops. Back in Kolkata, the exchange continued through engagements at several grassroots community spaces. At the Mustard Seed Library, the volunteers shared a culinary tradition by teaching children how to make Welsh cakes, alongside participating in music, art and interactive games. The group also spent time with children at Nabadisha, a police station–based safe space that provides education and creative engagement opportunities. The visit included performances by the children as well as interactive sessions featuring crafts, sports and cultural demonstrations. Additional visits included Ek Tara School, where the volunteers joined students in art workshops and observed traditional Indian dance classes. The group also visited skill development centres supporting young women in vocational training such as mehendi and beauty services. Through heritage walks, craft workshops, sports sessions and community-hosted meals, the programme offered participants a deeper understanding of Kolkata’s everyday cultural life and traditions. Overall, the initiative emerged as a meaningful celebration of cultural connection between Wales and Kolkata, fostering empathy, friendship and lasting bonds through shared stories, creativity and lived community experiences. Speaking on this occasion, **Welsh delegate Megan Mcdonaldy said**, > *“Our time in Kolkata and Shantiniketan has been incredibly enriching. Through music, stories and everyday interactions, we discovered how cultural exchange can create genuine connections and mutual learning. The warmth of the communities we met made this experience truly unforgettable for all of us.”* **Maura Hurley, Educational Sponsorship and Program Director for Her Future Coalition India adds**: > *“I am so honoured to be a part of the partnership between the Urdd and Her Future Coalition India. The cultural and personal exchanges create seeds of growth and new perspectives for everyone involved. HFC is extremely thankful to have such an opportunity to show our programs to the girls first hand. They come prepared with open minds and so much excitement, talent, and creativity. We also extend our thanks for their support to all the girls and women here in Kolkata who receive shelter, education, and training through our work. The program has been a real success, and I now look forward to this amazing journey each year!”* [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ### [Motorola Edge 70 Fusion Sale Begins with World’s First 50MP Sony-LYTIA 710 Camera](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/motorola-edge-70-fusion-sale-begins-with-worlds-first-50mp-sony-lytia-710-camera/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai, Mar 12:** Motorola, a global leader in mobile technology and innovation and India’s leading AI smartphone brand, today announced the sale of the **motorola edge 70 fusion**, bringing breakthrough **camera innovation, immersive visuals, intelligent AI experiences**, and massive battery life to the mid-premium smartphone segment.

The launch addresses a persistent challenge in customer experience: even when audio is clear, comprehension can break down across customers’ accents and dialects, increasing effort for agents and friction for customers. In global contact centers, many agents operate in English as a second language while serving customers across diverse accents and dialects. Even when audio quality is high, comprehension gaps can increase repetition, extend average handle time, and add cognitive strain. The technology operates in real time, adapting what the agent hears to enhance intelligibility while preserving the customer’s natural voice, emotion, and context of the conversation. Only the agent hears the adapted audio. Built for global contact centers, the system is designed to handle diverse accent patterns within a single, dynamically adapting model, without requiring accent selection, configuration, or workflow changes. It operates seamlessly within the agent’s Krisp app and enhances clarity without introducing delays. > “In contact centers, the strain isn’t just on customers; it’s on agents who are often working in a second language and processing multiple accents all day,” said **Davit Baghdasaryan, CEO and Co-Founder of Krisp.** “When agents have to work harder just to understand what’s being said, cognitive load increases and performance suffers. Customer Accent Conversion reduces that effort in real time, helping agents stay focused, resolve issues faster, and deliver better customer experiences without asking customers to repeat themselves or change how they speak. The downstream impact is tangible — reduced handle time, faster resolutions, and improved satisfaction on both sides of the call.” With agent-side accent conversion already in market, Customer Accent Conversion extends real-time clarity to both sides of the call, addressing one of the largest drivers of handle time in global operations. The technology is built for enterprise security and scale. Processing happens locally on the agent’s device, and raw audio is never stored or routed through external servers. Krisp operates as a virtual microphone and speaker, enabling deployment across major CCaaS platforms and softphone applications without workflow changes.

The rebranding marks a significant milestone in the company’s transformation journey under the **“Logisnext Vision 2035”** strategy, which aims to strengthen the group’s long-term growth, innovation, and global market presence. As part of this transformation, Mitsubishi Logisnext Co., Ltd. has also formed a strategic partnership with Japan Industrial Partners (JIP) to support sustainable growth and long-term value creation. Under the initiative, all group companies will adopt the new company name effective **April 30, 2026**. ### Commitment to Customers Despite the name change, the company emphasized that its dedication to customers and dealer partners will remain unchanged. “We are evolving our identity to align with our global strategy, but our commitment to customers and dealer partners remains the same,” said Yasumitsu Baba, Managing Director of Mitsubishi Logisnext Asia Pacific. “We will continue to provide reliable equipment, trusted services, and solutions that drive customer success while strengthening our alignment with the global Logisnext network.” ### Global and Regional Strategy The Logisnext Group operates through four major regional hubs—**Japan, EAME (Europe, Africa, CIS, and the Middle East), the Americas, and APAC/C/SA (Asia Pacific, China, and South Africa)**—allowing the company to effectively address the evolving needs of customers across diverse markets.

The Hub is a neutral location that allows enterprises to discover, connect to and consume AI infrastructure providers—including model companies, GPU clouds, data platforms, network and security services, and AI frameworks—all through private, low-latency connectivity at Equinix’s 280 high performance data centers. > “Enterprises are racing to deploy agentic AI but are finding that their existing infrastructure was never designed for the complexities of distributed intelligence,” said **Mary Johnston Turner, Research Vice President, Digital Infrastructure Strategies at IDC**. “By 2027, IDC expects 80% of enterprises will deploy distributed edge infrastructure to improve the latency and responsiveness of AI applications. Enterprises will need solutions like Equinix’s Distributed AI Hub to enable them to unify these disparate systems.” To unlock the true value of agentic AI, enterprises need to unify inherently distributed workflows: training data and inference workloads sprawled across public clouds, private data centers, edge environments and a rising wave of specialized neoclouds, each with unique performance and sovereignty constraints. This maze of silos can slow innovation, complicate governance and make it nearly impossible to run AI workloads close to the data that fuels them—limiting business impact and user experience. That is why Equinix is taking its distributed AI infrastructure a step further with the launch of the Distributed AI Hub, giving enterprises a simple, secure, more performant way to run AI across different locations. > “AI isn’t centralized—but the right infrastructure can make it run as seamlessly as if it were,” said **Jon Lin, Chief Business Officer at Equinix**. “Equinix is the neutral ground where AI, cloud and networking infrastructure converge. We are providing enterprises the freedom to build and scale AI wherever their data, partners, and teams already live, while running inference close to the data and users that depend on it, without the operational drag that comes from stitching together complex, distributed systems. With our Distributed AI Hub, we’re giving customers a simpler, smarter, and far more connected way to run and scale their AI today. We are building one of the most expansive and neutral AI ecosystems.” The Distributed AI Hub provides a unified framework that brings together data, compute, cloud platforms and AI ecosystem partners in a vendor-neutral environment. It enables enterprises to run AI workloads where they perform best without rebuilding their architecture each time or moving data to different locations. The Hub offers a simple, secure way to connect models, move data, run inferencing and manage distributed AI systems with consistent governance and control. Unlike hyperscaler AI marketplaces that favor their own services, the Distributed AI Hub is open and vendor-neutral by design, giving customers the freedom to compose their own AI stack from best-of-breed providers. The Hub’s first integration with Palo Alto Networks empowers customers to enable real-time protection for agent and model interactions with external tools and data sources. By combining Equinix’s global distributed AI infrastructure and high-speed, private interconnection with Palo Alto Networks Prisma AIRS real-time AI security and centralized policy enforcement, enterprises gain visibility and control over AI applications, data and interactions, across any location. Additionally, Prisma AIRS will be available on Equinix Network Edge, allowing organizations to centrally manage AI-driven security services at the digital edge, closer to users, clouds and critical workloads. > “The conversation around distributed AI is finally getting real,” said **Lloyd Taylor, CTO/CISO, at Alembic**. “It’s more than compute and data, it’s controlling where the data lives and how the compute runs. Equinix is framing that problem the right way, by bringing placement, governance, and predictable performance into the same architecture with the Distributed AI Hub. This is what makes distributed AI viable at enterprise scale.” The Distributed AI Hub is available globally at 280 Equinix data center locations, enabling enterprises to deploy consistent AI infrastructure patterns worldwide. Equinix will be participating at NVIDIA GTC—located at Booth 1030—and will be previewing the Hub.

Across industries from logistics and delivery to EV fleets and energy services organizations are overwhelmed with data. Yet unless that data directly influences daily decision-making, it remains a costly investment with little strategic impact. If your fleet analytics isn’t affecting what you do today, then it’s largely useless tomorrow. At its core, fleet analytics should empower decisions every day: from route optimization and driver behavior adjustments to predictive maintenance and energy management. Otherwise, it becomes a dashboard of historical reports that’s interesting to review, but meaningless in practice. This is the power that intelligence platforms should aim to unlock. Rather than being a passive reporting tool, real-time analytics must be an active part of the decision-making engine of your operation. **Why Static Reports Fail Today’s Fleets** Legacy analytics solutions often generate daily or weekly summaries of fleet performance, fuel consumption, idle time, battery health, delivery completion rates, etc. But this post-hoc reporting doesn’t influence the day’s operations. And in fast-moving fleet environments, opportunities and issues emerge in real time. Decision windows close quickly: traffic patterns shift, customers update delivery schedules, weather conditions change, vehicles go out of service, and battery performance fluctuates based on usage. Analytics that only look backward fail to empower managers to: - Reassign drivers or vehicles based on real-time demand - Avoid unplanned maintenance before it becomes critical - Optimize routes to account for current conditions - Adjust battery usage strategies dynamically Without immediate insight, decisions lag and losses accumulate. The result? Increased costs, reduced service reliability, and poor operational outcomes. **Real Time Isn’t Optional, It’s Essential** To truly impact daily decisions, analytics must be real-time or near real-time. This means fleet data is processed and communicated immediately, allowing leaders to respond to changing conditions as they happen. It isn’t about gathering terabytes of historical data, it’s about triggering intelligent action. Here’s what real-time capabilities enable: **1. Operational Agility** Fleets that monitor location, performance, and vehicle health as events unfold can dynamically reroute vehicles, optimize deployment, and maximize asset utilization. This leads to immediate operational gains beyond what static plans ever could. **2. Proactive Risk Management** Instead of waiting for quarterly reports, real-time analytics catch anomalies like battery strain, overheating, or inefficient routing early, before they turn into costly downtime. This is especially vital for EV fleets, where battery performance directly impacts uptime and lifecycle costs. **3. Cost Control** Fuel costs, vehicle wear and tear, and labour are among the largest operational expenses. By using immediate insights to reduce idle time, optimize routes, and incentivize better driver behaviors, fleets often see significant cost reductions in just weeks, not months. **4. Safety and Compliance** Instant alerts for unsafe driving behavior (e.g., harsh braking, speeding) help managers coach drivers in real time, reducing accidents and insurance costs. Knowing exactly where vehicles are and how they behave also helps fleets stay within regulatory compliance windows. If fleet analytics don’t shape these decisions while they still matter, the insights are too late to influence outcomes. **How New-Age Intelligence Platforms Turns Data Into Decisions** The new age intelligence platforms should not only focus on data collection alone. They must turn data into actionable insights that alter the course of daily operations. **Real-Time Monitoring** The system continuously tracks vehicle performance, location, and driver behavior so fleet managers always have the latest information. This visibility isn’t a luxury it’s the foundation of daily decisions. **Predictive Maintenance Alerts** Instead of reacting after a breakdown, predictive analytics forecast maintenance needs based on patterns in battery health and vehicle usage. This shifts operations from reactive to proactive, improving equipment uptime and reducing costs. **Automated Reporting** Analytics shouldn’t require manual extraction or interpretation. Intelligent reporting highlights trends and alerts managers when action is needed, helping prioritize decisions that matter most. **Integration With Existing Systems** Analytics must work where decisions are made. By integrating telematics and performance data with existing enterprise systems (like TMS, CRM, and ERP). Insights must flow effortlessly into operational workflows. **The Competitive Edge of Decision-Driven Analytics** Fleets that use analytics to influence their daily operational choices outperform their competitors. These organizations shorten delivery times, lower maintenance costs, extend battery life, reduce emissions, and deliver superior customer experiences, all by acting on insights today, not tomorrow. Consider this: legacy analytics produces reports that are interesting. Real-time analytics produce decisions that are impactful. If your analytics platform does not influence daily choices; dynamic routing, driver coaching, battery usage patterns, or maintenance planning then you’re essentially looking at a dashboard, not a decision engine. **Final Thoughts** Data alone doesn’t drive results: decisions do. The transition from historical analysis to real-time decision support is not optional in modern fleet management, it’s fundamental. When analytics changes how you operate every single day, then it becomes strategic. If it doesn’t, then it’s just another dataset with a fancy interface. Modern fleet management platforms like URSAA’s Fleet Management solution illustrate this transformation: real-time data, predictive insights, and automated alerts that actively shape operations every day. This is not the future of fleet analytics. This is now, and it’s the difference between surviving and thriving in a hyper-competitive environment.

Integrated within the F5 Application Delivery and Security Platform (ADSP), the innovations unify intelligent threat protection, zero trust access controls, and crypto-agile architecture to help enterprises secure distributed applications and prepare for emerging post-quantum risks. > “Security teams do not need more alarms. They need fewer gaps,” **said Kunal Anand, Chief Product Officer at F5**. “ADSP closes the loop from finding risk to enforcing protection. That includes moving from identified AI model vulnerabilities to validated runtime guardrails, AI-powered risk scoring, and a practical path to zero trust and post-quantum readiness. The point is simple: move faster while reducing your threat landscape.” **AI-driven protection for modern threats** As organizations scale applications across data center, hybrid multicloud, and edge environments, they need faster, more intelligent responses to emerging threats. F5 addresses this through AI-powered protections in the F5 ADSP, automating risk-based web application firewall (WAF) capabilities that reduce operational overhead and improve threat detection, bridging the gaps between risk identification and mitigation. New to the F5 ADSP, **F5 AI Remediate** closes a gap between identifying AI model vulnerabilities with **F5 AI Red Team** and enforcing validated runtime protections with **F5 AI Guardrails**. AI Remediate accelerates time to response by automating the creation, optimization, and validation of targeted guardrail packages, enabling security teams to put evidence-backed protections into production with human approval. As part of the ADSP, AI Remediate helps organizations reduce exposure quickly without disrupting live AI applications, eliminating repetitive tasks while supporting accountable AI adoption. Additionally, the latest **F5 Distributed Cloud WAF** release introduces AI-powered risk scoring, transforming manual processes into automated protections. With outcome-based blocking policies, CISOs, SecOps, and NetOps teams can eliminate threats, reduce operational burden, and achieve rapid time to protection, all while maintaining low false positive rates through layered analysis. **F5 Web Application and API Protection** (WAAP) solutions such as this minimize reliance on signature-level exceptions and tedious tuning for enterprises with significant application portfolios. Whether safeguarding on-premises hardware or virtual systems, cloud-based SaaS applications, or containerized deployments, F5 enables consistent, enterprise-grade security across ecosystems. **Security in the age of agentic AI** F5 is introducing powerful capabilities within **F5 Distributed Cloud Bot Defense** to address the emerging challenges of AI-driven automation. These enhanced features combat analytics distortion, automated abuse, and impersonation attempts created by AI agents threats that increasingly impact both users and the business. Within the F5 ADSP, Distributed Cloud Bot Defense now offers deeper visibility across application traffic, clearly distinguishing humans, bots, and AI agents. Only trusted, verifiable AI agents are allowed to interact with applications, ensuring malicious or ungoverned activity is blocked while enabling safe, controlled agentic commerce. With unified governance and consistent policy controls for human, bot, and AI agent interactions, these new capabilities help organizations safeguard revenue from harmful automation and confidently participate in the emerging agentic economy. ADSP also now integrates **F5 Distributed Cloud Web App Scanning** with **F5 BIG-IP Advanced WAF**, delivering scalable, automated vulnerability detection for BIG-IP customers. Security teams can identify threats through automated penetration testing and rapidly deploy precise virtual patches. This integration streamlines vulnerability detection and exploit response, reducing time to protection. This approach showcases F5’s platform advantage: unified security across hardware, software, and SaaS, offering unmatched flexibility to protect applications and APIs in any environment. **Unified zero trust across hybrid multicloud environments** F5 is evolving BIG-IP Access Policy Manager (APM) into **BIG-IP Zero Trust Access**, emphasizing its zero trust application access (ZTAA) capabilities as part of the ADSP. Unlike SaaS-based zero trust network access (ZTNA) solutions, BIG-IP Zero Trust Access delivers hybrid zero trust operations with continual identity- and context-aware policy enforcement for modern, cloud, SaaS, and legacy applications. With per-request validation limiting horizontal movement, it strengthens application security across diverse access environments supporting Identity Aware Proxy, SSL VPN, or IPsec VPN on a post-quantum cryptography (PQC)-ready platform. BIG-IP Zero Trust Access provides a seamless path to adopt zero trust principles while extending F5’s ADSP vision. New API discovery and security options within **F5 Distributed Cloud API Security** provide flexibility and control for modern, hybrid application environments. Enhancements include out-of-band discovery across multiple data planes, including BIG-IP, NGINX, Kong, and Apigee.

These PCs cannot be a ‘Good Enough’ hardware, they are required to be enablers for the CIO/ CTO/ CEO’s decision-making, collaboration, and business continuity across increasingly distributed and fast-moving environments. When it comes to an elite position of power, executive leaders need their laptops to support AI-led productivity, safeguard critical data, deliver dependable performance during constant travel, and adapt seamlessly to evolving enterprise technology frameworks. The elite standard has shifted. We are moving beyond benchmarks into the realm of Business Continuity, Data Sovereignty, and CAPEX Resilience. **Here are 6 expectations of CIOs, CTOs, and CEOs from their business laptops:** **1. Should Have AI That Empowers Without Compromise** AI powered productivity is becoming the new normal, especially with reputed tools and app brands helping enterprises with efficiencies in workflows. It is embedded into collaboration, reporting, forecasting, and executive communication. With AI-enhanced business laptops, users have access to the advanced capabilities to summarize whitepapers and internal documents, streamline meetings with speaker-wise transcriptions to not miss points, improve work processes, and automate their productivity, right on the devices they already own. Newer business AI laptops have also been designed with Intel’s Lunar Lake and Arrow Lake processor families, to support the executive’s decision making with real-time intelligence along with key focus on its durability, security, mobility and other strengths. This ensures sensitive financial documents, board presentations, and internal strategy files can be processed securely within enterprise governance frameworks. **Why this matters:** Empowered AI at the edge supports innovation while reinforcing enterprise control. **2. Should Have Mobility Designed for Endurance** Frequent travel is part of a CXO’s work routine, may it be city-local, domestic, and international. Their laptops need to mimic the adaptability and capability to perform with a standard performance at different locations like offices, at airports or stations, while moving in the cabs, within conference areas, and while in client meetings. In those instances, reliability is essential. The all-powerful ASUS ExpertBooks B3405 and B5405, the Dell Pro Essential 14 have are top of the line business laptops that prioritise slim form factors combined with military grade durability benchmarks. The new ExpertBook explicitly has reinforced chassis designs, thermal stability. Lightweight builds are paired with structural resilience, balancing portability with enterprise-grade strength. **Why this matters:** Durable mobility enables leadership to focus on outcomes, not hardware reliability. **3. Should Have Deployment Readiness** CXO’s need reliability even in the deployment planning across distributed teams. Continuity requires predictable access and support just like the ‘Worry-Free Business Experience’ brand promise from ASUS to their ExpertBook customers. Dell, HP, ASUS and Lenovo manage extensive service centre networks across India, including authorized on-site, carry-in, and pick-up/drop-off options, particularly strong in major cities. ASUS specifically goes a step further to offer international warranty by default, services 15,500+ pin codes in India, with service centres open even on Saturdays for business customers and friendlier DOA policies. For organisations operating across multi-city or global footprints, this level of service reach reduces deployment friction and ensures faster onboarding for leadership teams. Broader service coverage shortens turnaround cycles and enhances operational continuity across geographically diverse teams. **Why this matters:** Reliable availability strengthens execution momentum. **4. Should Have Enterprise-grade Security That Reinforces Confidence** Executive devices handle high-value corporate intelligence. Hackers don’t just go for the passwords but the Firmware, so having just the basic security is a liability. Security in 2026 is expected to be layered, proactive, and resilient. Most business laptops such as Dell and Lenovo offer TPM 2.0, that’s like locking the front door but leaving the foundation exposed. With their ExpertBook lineup, ASUS empowers their users with features like Self-Recovery BIOS automatically detect and heal malicious firmware attacks without IT intervention. Add Chassis Intrusion Detection, hardware-based encryption and advanced endpoint protection solutions which makes security a digital vault. **Why this matters:** Multi-layered protection safeguards leadership trust and enterprise continuity. **5. Should Have A Robust Service Coverage** A CIO’s nightmare is a CEO’s laptop failing hours before a global launch. In that moment, a standard service SLA is a joke. Efficiency means being able to respond to needs immediately. When there is down time, it does not only inconvenience an organisation but also hinders the flow of executing strategic plans. By providing an extensive domestic and global coverage along with weekend support, ASUS removes the Admin Overhead from the IT department. Structured enterprise service networks throughout India in the form of ExpertBook platforms support executive teams, as well as extended service on weekends and provide a global warranty for leaders who are on the move internationally. Using this ecosystem gives IT departments one less item to manage, thus reducing their administrative overhead and allowing CXOs to continue working regardless of where their business takes them. Increasingly, organisations assess the geographic coverage and the service SLA prior to making procurement decisions. The importance of this is to maintain the momentum of CXOs. **6. Should Have A Scalable Performance and Lifecycle Value (CAPEX)** Enterprise capital allocation in 2026 will emphasise on longevity and intelligent scaling. Smart capital allocation favors Lifecycle Value and the ASUS ExpertBook series doesn’t lock you in. With **Dual SODIMM slots (up to 64GB)** and **Dual NVMe storage**, it evolves as your AI workloads grow. This is a 5-year CAPEX protection plan where you are buying headroom, not just hardware. In a way, such a future-proof devices support extended refresh cycles and controlled hardware optimisation without premature replacement. High-efficiency thermal engineering combined with next-generation processing architectures ensures performance headroom for AI-driven enterprise applications. **Why this matters:** Scalable platforms strengthen financial predictability and operational resilience. **The Strategic Reality of 2026 is to have Confidence Over Specifications** Leadership laptops today must deliver: • AI empowerment with enterprise control • Durable mobility engineered for executive life • Deployment readiness across geographies • Firmware-deep security resilience • Structured service ecosystems • Scalable lifecycle performance [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg)](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [Resonia Ltd.

Internally, the currency could benefit from stronger-than-expected retail sales data, which signals resilience in domestic consumption. Retail volumes rose 0.4% in January from the previous month, well above expectations of a 0.1% decline, reversing the slide seen in December. On an annual basis, sales expanded 2.8%, also exceeding forecasts, indicating that consumer demand remains a key pillar of Brazil’s economic momentum. These figures reinforce a broader pattern of improving macro indicators. Brazil’s S&P Global Composite PMI returned to expansion territory in February, driven primarily by strong services activity, while industrial production surged 1.8% month-on-month in January, significantly outperforming expectations. Together, these indicators suggest that Brazil’s private sector activity is regaining traction at the start of 2026, which can help sustain confidence in the real. However, the currency remains sensitive to external dynamics. While geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have boosted global oil prices and could benefit Brazil’s export revenues, they could continue to support the dollar and US Treasury yields on safe-haven demand and inflation concerns, limiting the real’s upside potential. Looking ahead, geopolitical developments and Brazil’s upcoming inflation data will be crucial in determining the real’s direction. A higher domestic inflation could encourage the central bank to maintain a tight monetary policy, providing additional support to the currency.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Gartner Identifies Three Pillars for Deriving Value from AI](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/gartner-identifies-three-pillars-for-deriving-value-from-ai/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Orlando, Fla., Mar 12**: Only one out of every five data and analytic (D&A) or AI leaders are concerned that uncertain costs will limit AI value according to Gartner, Inc., a business and technology insights company. A Gartner survey of 353 D&A and AI leaders from November through December 2025 found that this has led to only 44% of organizations adopting financial guardrails or AI FinOPs practices. > “Where adoption rates for AI deployment have grown from just two out of five organizations in 2024, to four out of five organizations today, D&A leaders must achieve clarity and focus on ROI to better achieve the growing AI goals and ambitions of their organizations,” said **Adam Ronthal, VP Analyst at Gartner.** “D&A leaders must realize they are responsible for delivering real value in the midst of all this AI hype and fears of an AI bubble that might burst.” > > “Getting to value is often measured using ROI, which D&A leaders need to think of as more than just a financial measure,” said **Georgia O’Callaghan, Director Analyst at Gartner.** “There are three ways to approach value that will help D&A leaders steer their organizations safely and effectively through the turbulent AI value waters.” Gartner identified these three ways to derive value from AI. **Set AI Ambition** Increased acceleration and uncertainty, combined with concerns about trust and control, drive the need for continuous learning and adaptation. > “D&A leaders may be experimenting with AI and learning a lot, but that also means they risk falling behind because everyone is experimenting,” said **Ronthal.** “D&A leaders should set their AI-ambition to help them maximize value from the insights their data provides, together with the knowledge and intuition of their team. This provides a return on intelligence.” To set this level of ambition, D&A leaders must radically rethink the impact of AI on D&A, set a shared vision and determine their level of AI ambition, take AI leadership, decide their role and manage the unpredictable and hidden costs of AI early. **Strengthen AI Foundations** Without strong foundations, AI will remain what it is for most organizations today; an expensive experiment. > “Expecting AI or GenAI to compensate for delayed upgrades, siloed teams and years of technical debt is wishful thinking,” said O’Callaghan. “D&A leaders must make sure their data is AI-ready, prevent exposing the wrong data to the wrong people and avoid inaccuracies, misunderstandings and hallucinations with a well-designed context layer. This provides a return on integrity.” To create strong AI foundations and reduce risk, D&A leaders should align their foundational initiatives with their AI ambition level, make governance a value accelerator and create a single, unified context layer. **Empower People for AI Transformation** While organizations change at a rapid pace, humans have a finite capacity to incorporate change. AI readiness grows much faster than human readiness. > “D&A leaders must make the shift from thinking about roles to focusing on skills with respect to AI,” said **Ronthal**. “D&A leaders will get value from their investments in developing their workforce. By focusing on skills, mindset, and behavioral change, they can unlock both individual and collective potential. This will increase employee engagement and productivity, making their organization more adaptive to change. Ultimately, this provides a return on individuals.” To empower people for AI-driven transformation, D&A leaders must substantially budget for change management, prioritize mindset and skillset over toolset, address employee concerns with a skills-development roadmap and also pilot fusion teams of blended human and artificial intelligence. **Gartner is the World Authority on AI** Gartner is the indispensable partner to C-Level executives and technology providers as they implement AI strategies to achieve their mission-critical priorities.

As global economies navigate uncertainty, rising geopolitical tensions, and shifting supply chains, India has been steadily implementing policy changes designed to improve competitiveness, attract investment, and simplify the way businesses operate. From tax reforms and labour law modernization to trade agreements and infrastructure expansion, these measures are gradually transforming India’s economic landscape. For businesses, investors, and policymakers, the reform agenda signals a broader vision of building a more resilient and globally integrated economy. ### Simplifying the Tax System One of the key areas of reform has been the modernization of India’s tax framework. Over the past few years, efforts have focused on simplifying tax structures and making compliance easier for individuals and businesses. A major step in this direction has been strengthening the country’s indirect tax system through the Goods and Services Tax. By replacing multiple state and central taxes with a unified system, GST has helped streamline the way businesses manage taxation across the country. Recent improvements have aimed at simplifying compliance procedures and reducing administrative complexity. For businesses operating across multiple states, these changes have helped create a more consistent and predictable tax environment. At the same time, digital tax filing systems have expanded significantly, allowing taxpayers to complete processes online more efficiently than ever before. ### Labour Reforms for a Changing Workforce Another important shift has taken place in India’s labour laws. For decades, businesses had to navigate a patchwork of regulations that often created confusion and compliance challenges. To address this, the government consolidated several older labour laws into four simplified labour codes. These reforms focus on wages, industrial relations, workplace safety, and social security benefits. The goal is to strike a balance between protecting workers and making it easier for businesses to operate. A notable feature of the reforms is the recognition of gig and platform workers, reflecting the rapid rise of digital employment platforms and the evolving nature of work in the modern economy. For workers, these changes aim to expand access to social security benefits. For businesses, they create a clearer regulatory framework that encourages formal employment. ### Expanding India’s Global Trade Partnerships India’s reform strategy is also closely tied to strengthening its role in global trade. As supply chains shift and companies seek new markets, the country has been expanding its international economic partnerships. One significant development is the India–EFTA Trade and Economic Partnership Agreement, which aims to deepen economic cooperation with European Free Trade Association countries. The agreement is expected to encourage investment, boost exports, and facilitate technology transfer across industries. By expanding access to global markets, such trade partnerships are helping Indian companies become more competitive internationally. For investors and multinational corporations, these agreements signal that India is increasingly open to deeper economic integration with the global economy. ### Strengthening Rural Development Economic reforms in India are not limited to urban industries or global trade. Rural development continues to play a central role in the country’s economic strategy. Employment programs and infrastructure initiatives in rural areas aim to support livelihoods while creating long-term assets such as irrigation systems, rural roads, and water conservation projects. These initiatives help strengthen the agricultural economy and improve living standards in rural communities. At the same time, rising rural incomes contribute to stronger domestic consumption, which remains a key driver of India’s economic growth. ### Infrastructure at the Core of Growth Infrastructure development has become one of the most visible aspects of India’s reform agenda. Large investments are being made in highways, railway networks, logistics corridors, and port modernization. Efficient infrastructure plays a crucial role in reducing transportation costs and improving supply chain efficiency. For manufacturers and exporters, better logistics systems can significantly improve competitiveness in global markets. Alongside physical infrastructure, digital connectivity has also expanded rapidly. High-speed internet networks and digital platforms are supporting the growth of technology-driven sectors and enabling businesses to operate more efficiently. ### Creating a More Investor-Friendly Environment Another important focus of economic reforms has been improving the ease of doing business in India. Simplified regulations, digital governance platforms, and streamlined approval processes are gradually reducing bureaucratic hurdles. These changes are particularly significant at a time when global companies are exploring new destinations for manufacturing and investment. India’s large consumer market, skilled workforce, and improving infrastructure make it an attractive option for international businesses looking to diversify their operations. For entrepreneurs and startups, regulatory simplification also creates a more supportive environment for innovation and expansion. ### Looking Ahead India’s economic reform journey is still evolving, but the direction is clear. Policymakers are focused on building a modern economic framework that encourages growth, strengthens global partnerships, and supports both businesses and workers. While global uncertainties continue to influence economic conditions, the reforms underway are designed to make the Indian economy more adaptable and resilient. As these policy changes take effect, they are likely to play a key role in shaping the next phase of India’s growth story—one defined by stronger institutions, improved infrastructure, and deeper integration with the global economy.

However, many utilities still rely on conventional management practices often described as “bury and forget,” where cables remain largely unmonitored once installed. Operational experience across several power networks indicates that underground cable failures can lead to prolonged outages because fault detection and repair are often complex and time-consuming. Operational experience shows that underground cable failures are frequently caused by excavation damage, joint defects and thermal stress in the cable system. To address these operational challenges, the paper introduced the **TRAP Framework**, a monitoring approach that combines sensing technologies with data analysis so that utilities can detect problems earlier and move towards predictive maintenance of underground cable assets. **T – Temperature Monitoring (DTS):** Distributed Temperature Sensing systems allow utilities to continuously track temperature behaviour along the cable route. This helps identify hotspots, abnormal heating, or overloading conditions that may otherwise go unnoticed. **R – Route and Risk Monitoring (DAS):** Route monitoring is carried out using Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS). The system registers vibration activity along cable routes and can indicate excavation, drilling or nearby construction that may pose a risk to underground cable corridors. **A – Asset Health Monitoring (Online PD):** This element focuses on checking the insulation condition of cable joints and terminations. Online Partial Discharge (PD) measurements help identify early signs of electrical deterioration within the cable system. **P – Performance Analytics:** Performance analytics involves reviewing monitoring data and operational trends from the network. These observations assist utilities in planning maintenance and managing cable assets more effectively. Commenting on the subject, **Mr. Rajinder Kaul** said, > ***“Underground cable systems are becoming an integral part of modern power infrastructure, particularly in dense urban networks and critical facilities. Moving towards predictive asset management allows utilities to monitor cable health, anticipate potential failures and optimise lifecycle performance. Such approaches will be essential in strengthening the reliability and resilience of future power networks.”*** The paper also referred to fibre-embedded cable systems, where optical fibres placed inside power cables can function as sensing channels along the route. These fibres function as sensing channels along the cable route. Such systems allow utilities to monitor long cable sections, tunnels and dense urban corridors in real time, making fault identification and network visibility easier. The paper highlighted that there is need for its wider Implementation. ***According to the paper, many utilities are already aware of such monitoring approaches but their adoption remains limited across several networks.*** Wider implementation of predictive monitoring frameworks could help utilities detect faults earlier, reduce outage durations and improve reliability of underground power corridors serving critical infrastructure. Sharika Enterprises has been actively contributing to technical discussions on improving the reliability and monitoring of underground cable infrastructure as urban power systems continue to evolve.

With $200m in fresh capital, EF is doubling down on its core thesis: the world has more exceptional founders than it realises. EF exists to identify exceptional individuals at the earliest stage and equip them with the peer group, structure, and early capital required to build globally significant companies that would not otherwise exist. Building across a wide range of sectors, EF India boasts a portfolio of 50+ successful startups across industries and sectors. Under Rahul Samat’s leadership, EF India continues identifying exceptional technical and entrepreneurial talent and guiding them from day one to find a co-founder, develop an idea, build a product, take it to market, and raise their first round of funding to build globally important companies. EF’s global portfolio of companies is now collectively valued at over $16 billion, up from $3 billion in 2021 when they last raised. > “We have raised this capital to double down on what we do best: identifying extraordinary individuals early and helping them build outlier companies from scratch,” said **Alice Bentinck, co-founder and CEO of EF**. > > “Once we have identified the talent, our role is to create the environments, peer groups and standards that push exceptional people to operate at the edge of their capabilities,” said **Matt Clifford, co-founder and Chairman of EF**. EF actively taps potential founders from leading universities, including Stanford, MIT, Berkeley, Yale and in India, institutes like IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and BITS Pilani, among others. Selected individuals join EF’s intensive company-building programs in Europe, India, and the US. Those who successfully form companies receive pre-seed investment from EF and relocate to the Bay Area for the fundraising and scaling phase of the program. Today, all EF companies are incorporated in the US and are expected to build from San Francisco from pre-seed onwards, maximising their chances of becoming global category creators and leaders. Companies in the recent Bay Area cohorts raised up to $15m in seed funding within two weeks of completing the program. > “India continues to be one of the deepest pools of technical and entrepreneurial talent in the world,” said **Rahul Samat, Partner and General Manager, Bangalore of EF in India**. “We have raised this capital to double down on identifying extraordinary individuals early and helping them build outlier companies from scratch. Through our India program, founders join us often with no idea and no co-founder, and within six months are positioned to raise from leading Silicon Valley investors. We are one of the only platforms in India that enable founders to build US-native companies from day one, giving them the structure, network, and capital to compete globally from inception.” EF India has played a crucial role in identifying and backing some of the country’s leading startups, such as Unbox Robotics, Unsiloed AI, Sidecar AI, Aule Space, and many more. Some of which have gone on to secure fundingfrom world-leading investors such as Long Journey Ventures, Nexus Venture Partners, Uncorrelated Ventures, Matrix Partners, SOSV and Pi Ventures. In 2024, EF began relocating all pre-seed-funded companies to the Bay Area ahead of their seed rounds. Since then, founders have seen material improvements in speed, execution, and fundraising outcomes. On average, time to raise has halved, and valuations have doubled. Entrepreneurs First is backed by serial entrepreneurs and prolific technology investors, including Reid Hoffman, Elad Gil, Nat Friedman, Founders Fund, Greylock, John and Patrick Collison, Demis Hassabis and Mustafa Suleyman. New to this round are founders and investors like Aidan Gomez, Barney Hussey-Yeo, Danny Rimer, Eric Schmidt, Jeffrey Dean & Heidi Hopper, Jeff Hammerbacher, Mati Staniszewski, Matt Cohler and Nick McKeown.

Customer data lives in silos, separated from the context across the channels and systems that humans and AI agents need to act. Legacy contact center tools rely on slow, costly custom integrations to stitch together CRM and AI platforms. Without a unified foundation that connects data, systems, and AI natively, contact centers can’t deliver on reducing costs or improving service with AI. Today, Salesforce introduces Agentforce Contact Center, the only contact center solution that unifies voice, digital channels, CRM data, and AI agents natively in a single system — enabling customer self-service at scale, seamless AI-to-human handoffs, and real-time visibility across every interaction. Every agent pulls from the same source of truth, so they can proactively understand the customer’s complete history and incorporate insights from voice conversations, chats, texts, past purchases or marketing activity into every interaction. And because Agentforce Contact Center is built on Salesforce’s unified platform, there’s no need for expensive, time-consuming integrations resulting in intelligent, integrated service able to meet customer demands without the added operating costs. “Managing support across professional installers, retail partners, and direct consumers requires a contact center solution that understands context,” said **Beth LeClerc, VP of Business Systems Architecture & Web Services, Savant Systems.** “Agentforce Contact Center’s ability to intelligently route customers and provide our agents with the right information for each interaction whether it’s a luxury home installer or a DIY smart home enthusiast—ensures we deliver premium service across every touchpoint of our business.” **A New Standard for Service** In this unified solution, AI agents resolve more cases autonomously, and ensure that only the highest-priority or most complex issues are escalated to humans. When these handoffs occur, human agents receive the full context of the interaction, allowing them to pick up exactly where AI agents left off. By eliminating context gaps, tool switching, and data siloes, teams can achieve outcomes like increased first-touch resolution, decreased average handle time, and increased customer satisfaction. Now, human and AI agents don’t just answer questions, they take action, and every customer interaction becomes smarter and more personalized. ● **Enable Smarter Agents Across Every Channel:** Agentforce knows your customer’s needs before they do because it understands every interaction from sales and marketing to service. These agents work in sync to complete tasks on behalf of customers, like rebooking a flight or updating a billing cycle. Customers no longer have to repeat a single detail. When humans and AI agents both work in the same CRM, they have the full picture of the customer’s journey. ● **Create Seamless Handoffs:** When a case is too complex for AI, the handoff to a human is finally more seamless. Because every channel is native and connected to your sales, service, and marketing data, your human agents receive the full transcript and customer history instantly. They pick up exactly where the AI left off, ensuring the customer never has to repeat a single detail. ● **Unlock the Value of Voice Data: By making voice native to the CRM, Agentforce Contact Center automatically bridges the gap between spoken conversation and customer records, capturing every nuance in real time. This creates a continuous feedback loop that uses unstructured voice data to improve AI accuracy and provide supervisors with total visibility into customer sentiment.** ● **Launch One Workspace for Everyone:** The whole contact center team works in a single view, and supervisors manage the entire operation from one dashboard. You can build an agent once and deploy it across every channel, including voice, to accelerate your AI rollout while keeping routing rules consistent for both your AI and human teams. **Customers Validate This New Standard** Agentforce Contact Center isn’t just helping teams answer phones, it’s giving humans and AI the shared context to resolve issues on the first touch and finally deliver AI first-service. Hear what our early adopters are saying: “We were looking for a way to expand our reach without compromising the individualized support that makes our model effective,” said **George Reuter, Managing Director of Impact & Innovation at Compass Working Capital. “With Agentforce Contact Center, we can streamline the enrollment process, unify our data, and give our teams AI-driven insights—all while maintaining the close partnerships with families with low incomes that are essential to building lasting financial security.”** “With Salesforce, Ferguson is able to engage customers and trade professionals across digital channels to solve issues quickly,” said **Nathan Bohneman, Senior Digital Product Manager, Ferguson.** “I’m excited about how Agentforce Contact Center could enable us to bring together our engagement channels, CRM data, and the power of agentic AI to deliver the seamless, personalized service our customers expect.” “Our guests expect seamless, personalized service across every touchpoint—from their initial booking inquiry to post-stay support,” said **Mohammed Mohsen, CIO, PAM Hotels**. “We’re excited about how Salesforce can help us deliver that experience through a unified platform and digital channels, all enhanced by AI automation. The ability to serve more guests efficiently, while maintaining our signature hospitality approach, is exactly what we need to grow our vacation club and strengthen relationships with families who return to our properties year after year.” **Salesforce Vision for Service** “Contact centers patched together with a variety of legacy tools cannot bridge the gap between AI and CRM”, said **Kishan Chetan, EVP and GM, Agentforce Service at Salesforce.** “By treating voice, AI, and CRM as a single service nervous system, we give human and AI teams the shared context they need to turn every interaction into a resolution. Following the launch of Agentforce Voice last fall, we’ve now created the first truly agentic contact center. We’re just getting started with our contact center innovation, and we’re excited for the momentum headed into Dreamforce in September.” **Get Started Quickly with Agentforce Contact Center** We know customers are facing these pressures today, which is why we designed Agentforce Contact Center to start small and scale smart. In the time it would take to connect data for a single fragmented pilot elsewhere, customers can begin executing on a native, fully connected agentic contact center. With phone number setup that takes minutes, not days, this easy on-ramp allows customers to unify a small group of agents or a single channel and scale from there, ensuring teams deliver AI-first service in weeks, not months. **Unifying the Contact Center Ecosystem with a Robust Partner Network** Systems Integrators (SIs) like Accenture (now including NeuraFlash), Deloitte Digital, IBM Consulting, and PwC see firsthand how much AI potential is unlocked when data is connected, and how contact centers can deliver better service when AI agents and humans work cohesively together across all channels. Our implementation partners are already helping our customers skip the “construction project” of multiple channels, AI tools, and data streams and to move straight to an integrated AI and human service model on one platform, delivering more value faster and turning support into a growth engine. Whether you use Agentforce Contact Center’s native voice capabilities or choose one of our telephony partner integrations through Salesforce AppExchange, any business can build the contact center that works best for your business.

While domestic inflation has remained relatively moderate in recent months, ongoing global unrest—particularly in energy-producing regions—has increased the risk of price pressures returning in the months ahead. For policymakers, businesses, and investors, inflation trends are becoming increasingly connected to global developments. Conflicts, trade disruptions, and supply chain challenges can quickly influence commodity prices, which in turn affect domestic inflation levels. ### Inflation Stability Amid Global Uncertainty India has managed to maintain relatively stable inflation compared with many economies that experienced sharp price increases following the pandemic. Strong agricultural output, improved supply chains, and balanced demand conditions have helped moderate inflationary pressures. The country’s inflation framework focuses on maintaining price stability while supporting economic growth. By managing liquidity and interest rates carefully, monetary authorities have aimed to ensure that inflation remains within a manageable range while the economy continues to expand. Stable inflation plays a crucial role in maintaining consumer purchasing power, encouraging business investment, and supporting long-term economic planning. ### Geopolitical Conflicts Are Driving Energy Price Risks One of the most significant risks to inflation in the current environment is the impact of geopolitical unrest on global energy markets. Tensions in the Middle East and other strategically important regions have led to concerns about oil supply disruptions and rising shipping costs. Because oil is a critical input for transportation, manufacturing, and logistics, fluctuations in crude oil prices can quickly influence inflation levels. Even moderate increases in global oil prices tend to raise domestic fuel costs and increase the price of goods across multiple sectors. India remains heavily dependent on imported crude oil, which makes the economy sensitive to energy market volatility. Any sustained surge in oil prices could place upward pressure on inflation by increasing production and transportation expenses. ### Supply Chain Pressures and Global Trade Global unrest can also disrupt international shipping routes and supply chains, which adds another layer of inflation risk. When shipping routes become uncertain or insurance costs rise, the price of transporting goods across borders increases. These disruptions often lead to higher costs for imported raw materials, industrial components, and essential commodities. As a result, manufacturers may face increased production expenses, which can eventually translate into higher prices for consumers. In a globally interconnected economy, supply chain disruptions in one region can ripple across markets worldwide. For India, maintaining diversified trade partnerships and improving domestic manufacturing capabilities helps reduce the impact of such disruptions. ### Food Inflation Remains a Key Domestic Factor While global developments influence inflation trends, food prices continue to play the most important role in shaping India’s domestic inflation outlook. Agricultural output, monsoon performance, and seasonal supply cycles have a direct impact on food prices. When crop production is strong and supply chains function efficiently, food inflation tends to remain moderate. However, rising fuel prices linked to global energy volatility can increase transportation and storage costs for agricultural products. This means that energy market fluctuations can indirectly influence food inflation as well. ### Market Volatility and Economic Sentiment Global geopolitical tensions also affect financial markets, which can indirectly influence inflation expectations. Rising commodity prices, currency fluctuations, and investor uncertainty often create volatility in equity and currency markets. For emerging economies like India, stable inflation is particularly important in maintaining investor confidence. Predictable price trends allow businesses to plan investments and manage costs more effectively. Maintaining inflation stability in a volatile global environment therefore becomes a key component of economic resilience. ### Structural Strengths Supporting Price Stability India’s evolving economic structure is helping improve its ability to manage inflation risks. Investments in infrastructure, logistics networks, and digital supply chain systems are reducing bottlenecks in the movement of goods. The growth of e-commerce platforms and digital marketplaces has also increased price transparency and competition across sectors. These changes contribute to a more efficient market environment, which can help moderate inflation pressures over time. In addition, diversification of energy sources and increasing investments in renewable energy are gradually reducing long-term dependence on imported fossil fuels. ### Outlook for Inflation Looking ahead, inflation trends in India will likely depend on several key factors, including global energy prices, agricultural output, supply chain stability, and geopolitical developments. If global tensions ease and commodity markets stabilize, inflation could remain moderate in the near term. However, prolonged geopolitical conflicts or persistent energy price increases could introduce new inflationary pressures. Policymakers will therefore continue monitoring both domestic economic indicators and global developments closely. ### Conclusion India’s inflation trends today reflect a delicate balance between domestic economic strength and external global uncertainties. While price stability has largely been maintained, the evolving geopolitical landscape highlights how global events can quickly influence inflation dynamics. In an increasingly interconnected world economy, managing inflation requires not only domestic policy discipline but also resilience against external shocks. India’s ability to navigate these challenges will play a critical role in sustaining economic stability and growth in the years ahead.

In partnership with UserEvidence, SolarWinds surveyed more than 750 IT professionals managing complex, distributed systems marked by tool sprawl, cross-team silos, and prolonged outages. **Navigating Complex IT Environments** Key findings from the study identify a critical misalignment between modern IT architecture and the Monitoring & Observability (M&O) tools needed for full-stack visibility. As organizations balance legacy infrastructure with cloud-native architectures, many are discovering their monitoring and observability tools haven’t kept pace. While these architecture options carry advantages, they can also add complexities to M&O. Key findings from IT pros include: - 77% cite limited visibility across on-prem and cloud environments - 75% say lack of coordination between teams (e.g., network, infrastructure, applications, and database) hinders effective observability - 55% report using too many monitoring and observability tools “As IT environments grow more distributed and business-critical, visibility is no longer optional; it’s foundational,” said Cullen Childress, Chief Product Officer, SolarWinds. “Unified observability shifts teams from reactive firefighting to proactive resilience, enabling them to optimize performance, reduce risk, and keep the business running without disruption.” **Leveraging AI to Fill in M&O Gaps** Modern IT pros require this complete visibility to command peak efficiency and performance. In fact, almost two-thirds of respondents (64%) said unified observability across all layers of the IT stack is very important to their team’s success. AI is quickly becoming central to modern observability. 90 percent of respondents express confidence in AI’s ability to improve monitoring and observability operations. Respondents reported certain benefits from AI assistance in observability, which include cost reduction and faster mean time to resolve (MTTR). The data showed that IT pros are already using AI to: - Automate incident prioritization (47%) - Accelerate root cause analysis (45%) - Predict capacity and performance issues (45%) - Reduce alert noise and fatigue (45%) Despite strong confidence, barriers remain to fully operationalizing AI: - Security concerns: 47% - Skills gaps: 42% - Complexity of technology: 41% - Employee reluctance or resistance: 37% - Budget constraints: 33% The report outlines recommended steps teams can take to overcome these challenges and strategically integrate AI into their observability practice. Teams should identify where AI can immediately improve M&O tasks and enact strict access protocols for AI tooling. It’s also vital for organizations to train and upskill their staff to promote effective and responsible AI use. “Every organization’s path to full visibility looks different,” said Abigail Norman, Sr. Director of Product Marketing, SolarWinds. “Our platform cuts through the noise by unifying observability across the stack. AI should do more than reduce alerts — it should sharpen prioritization, streamline workflows, and give teams the space to focus on strategy instead of scrambling through dashboards.” As observability evolves from monitoring to intelligent orchestration, organizations are increasingly prioritizing platforms that unify data, automate insight, and lay the foundation for autonomous operational resilience.

Sparked by a personal tragedy and the widespread fear that prevents bystanders from helping accident victims, he built SLF into a pioneering organisation that has reshaped national policy and on‑ground emergency response. His relentless advocacy led to the creation of India’s landmark Good Samaritan Law, offering legal protection to citizens who assist road crash victims. Under his leadership, SLF developed the Zero Fatality Solutions (ZFS) model—a data‑driven, systemic intervention that has reduced crash deaths by up to 67% on some of India’s most dangerous highways, transforming high‑risk corridors into safer mobility zones. Beyond life‑saving interventions, Piyush has demonstrated how policy reform, rigorous evidence and institutional partnerships can unlock impact at scale. SLF’s holistic approach—integrating safer road design, better enforcement, trauma response, and community engagement—has set new national benchmarks for public health and safety. Every ₹1 invested by the organisation catalyses up to ₹350 in public funding, enabling exponential reach and systemic change. Today, vulnerable road users, including pedestrians, two‑wheeler riders and low‑income commuters, are significantly safer because of SLF’s work. As the winner of the Social Entrepreneur of the Year Award,India2025, Piyush Tewari exemplifies how personal loss can be transformed into a national movement that saves countless lives and redefines road safety as a fundamental right for all. **Year** **SEOY India Winner** **Organisation** 2025 Piyush Tewari SaveLIFE Foundation 2024 Akshay Saxena Avanti Fellows 2023 Shuchin Bajaj Ujala Cygnus 2022 Aniket Doegar Haqdarshak Empowerment Solutions 2021 Pranshu Singhal Karo Sambhav 2020 Ashraf Patel Pravah & ComMutiny Youth Collective 2019 Shanti Raghavan & Dipesh Sutariya EnAble India 2018 Prema Gopalan Swayam Shikshan Prayog 2017 Urvashi Sahni Study Hall Educational Foundation (SHEF) 2016 Neichute Doulo Entrepreneurs Associates 2015 Poonam Bir Kasturi Daily Dump 2014 H.

The findings show that India is emerging as one of the world’s leading adopters of generative AI, ranking among the top three markets globally alongside the United States and Germany. Indian organizations are not only adopting AI at scale but are also seeing stronger returns and operational improvements compared to the global average. According to the report, 71% of Indian respondents reported measurable returns from generative AI investments, significantly higher than the global average of 61%. Additionally, 42% of Indian organisations are already using Generative AI across multiple use cases. **Indian enterprises applying Generative AI Across Core Enterprise Functions** The research shows that Indian organisations are deploying generative AI across a wide range of technology and business functions. Compared to global averages, companies in India report higher adoption of AI across several key areas: - **IT operations:** 76% vs. 61% globally - **Data analytics:** 75% vs. 57% globally - **Cybersecurity:** 69% vs. 52% globally - **Software development:** 65% vs. 48% globally - **Customer service:** 58% vs. 48% globally - **Sales:** 41% vs. 31% globally These findings highlight how generative AI is becoming embedded in operational workflows across Indian enterprises. *“Indian organisations are moving quickly from early experimentation to embedding generative AI into core business operations,” **said Vijayant Rai, Managing Director – India, Snowflake.** “What stands out is the strong focus on translating AI adoption into measurable outcomes. As companies continue to invest in modern data platforms and AI capabilities, India is well-positioned to lead the next phase of enterprise AI innovation.”* **Generative AI Transforming India’s Tech Ecosystem** The report highlights that generative AI could have a particularly significant impact in India, where IT services and software development contribute substantially to the country’s digital economy. Indian organisations are among the most aggressive adopters of AI tools across software development and IT operations: - **77%** of respondents say their organisations use AI to generate code, compared with **64% globally** - **76%** use AI for code reviews and debugging, versus **65% globally** - **66%** use AI for IT or cybersecurity incident response, compared with **54% globally** - **68%** use AI to configure and optimise infrastructure, versus **58% globally** These capabilities are helping organisations accelerate development cycles, improve system reliability, and automate routine engineering tasks. **Strong Business Outcomes from Generative AI** Indian organisations are also reporting stronger business outcomes from generative AI initiatives than the global average. According to respondents: - **94%** report improved operational efficiency, compared with **87% globally** - **92%** report increased innovation, versus **83% globally** - **86%** report improved financial performance, compared with **75% globally** These results suggest that Indian enterprises are not only adopting generative AI rapidly but are also successfully translating adoption into measurable business outcomes. **India Set to lead the next wave of AI Investment** Looking ahead, Indian organisations are expected to lead global investment in generative AI initiatives. The report finds that Indian enterprises plan to allocate 28% of their technology budgets to generative AI in the next 12 months, the highest share among all countries surveyed, compared to the global average of 22%. Adoption of agentic systems is also accelerating, with 66% of Indian organisations already using or planning to implement agentic AI within the next year, compared to 56% globally.

Designed to drive app installs and platform sign ups among college students and early career youth, the initiative combined street level visibility, direct human interaction and QR led activations to build brand recall within the student community.![EventBeep Launches Bollywood-Style QR Campaign in Pune & Mumbai](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7brurxoa8d.jpeg) The campaign, executed throughout February 2026, moved away from digital only marketing formats and focused on hyper local experiential engagement. Activations were carried out across student heavy neighbourhoods, roads near college campuses and popular youth hangout zones, turning everyday public spaces into discovery points for the Beep app. A central component of the campaign involved the deployment of Bollywood inspired posters across high footfall city roads and areas surrounding college campuses. The posters used humorous and relatable messaging reflecting common student concerns around careers, skills and future plans. Each creative featured a QR code directing users to the Beep app installation page, encouraging passersby to scan instantly. Another visible element of the campaign was a QR branded chocolate car that travelled across busy student zones in Pune. The vehicle functioned as both a mobile branding installation and an interaction point for students. QR codes displayed across the car enabled quick app downloads, while chocolates were distributed as a light hearted incentive encouraging students to stop, interact and scan the code on the spot. Commenting on the campaign, **Saurabh Mangrulkar, Founder and CEO of Beep App**, said, > *“The creative direction was intentionally inspired by the filmy style that young people in India instantly recognise. Bollywood is a cultural language that resonates strongly with Gen Z audiences, especially in cities like Mumbai and Pune that are closely linked with film and pop culture. We wanted to give the campaign a desi touch that students could immediately relate to. At a time when most engagement happens online, interacting with students physically and having real conversations felt equally important.”* Members of the Beep team also conducted direct conversations with students at youth hubs including Marine Drive in Mumbai as well as prominent college areas in Pune such as Fergusson College and surrounding neighbourhoods. These interactions focused on informal conversations around career uncertainty, skill development and job opportunities, followed by QR based onboarding that allowed students to install the app instantly. Several of these interactions were captured as short videos, student reactions and testimonials that were later shared across digital platforms. The approach allowed on ground experiences to extend organically into online conversations, helping the campaign reach a wider student audience. Founded in Pune in 2021, EventBeep has steadily expanded its presence within the student ecosystem and today connects millions of young users with career opportunities, mentorship and hiring platforms. The company reports serving more than **6.5 million users**, while partnering with over **1,500 colleges** and working with more than **7,800 hiring companies** across India.

This year’s theme, “Sleep Well, Live Better,” is a timely reminder that sleep is not something to be earned at the end of a productive day; it is what makes that productivity possible in the first place.*![Bombay Dyeing Marks World Sleep Day 2026 with ComfortThatCares](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/gpwumnsec7.jpeg) That is the belief at the heart of ComfortThatCares, Bombay Dyeing’s World Sleep Day initiative. Through this campaign, the brand is shifting the conversation from simply sleeping more to sleeping better, drawing attention to the role that thoughtful, quality home textiles play in creating a sleep environment that truly supports rest. Bombay Dyeing’s sleep portfolio is engineered specifically to address these environmental factors:* - *Urban Living Luxury Bedsheets: 400-thread-count cotton blends that are highly breathable, helping regulate body temperature to prevent midnight waking.* - *Celebrating India Collection: 100% pure cotton in a rich 300 thread count, offering soft, breathable comfort with heritage-inspired designs.* - *Comforters: Lightweight, breathable filling designed to provide year-round comfort without overheating.* - *Bonded Blankets: Thick, insulated layers with a soft-touch finish for consistent, comfortable warmth through the night.* - *Pillow: Thoughtfully engineered for optimal support and breathable comfort, Bombay Dyeing pillows are designed to change how India sleeps.

At Bombay Dyeing, we have spent 145 years crafting products that bring comfort into Indian homes – and there is no comfort more important than a good night’s rest.”* *For millions of Indians, sleep is the first thing sacrificed to a long day. Late-night screens, irregular schedules, and mounting pressures have quietly eroded the quality of rest that most people get. And yet, sleep affects nearly every aspect of how we function: how clearly we think, how well we recover, and how we show up for the people around us. Most healthy adults need 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep, and research consistently shows that the environment in which we sleep plays a significant role in whether we actually get it.* *Soft, 100% cotton bedsheets that keep you cool, dohars that are light but cosy, pillows that properly support your neck, and blankets that keep you warm through the night.

From being a homemaker to becoming a lawyer, Pushpa continues to stand strong in the face of personal loss, determined to seek justice while holding on to her values, even when the path is not easy. ![A verdict that shocks everyone: Shanaya moves into Pushpa’s chawl as she is sentenced to “Ghar Jail” in Sony SAB’s Pushpa Impossible](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/jurz1vz6rb.jpeg) In the upcoming episodes, the courtroom battle in the case against Shanaya takes an unexpected turn as the court delivers a shocking verdict. After evidence proves that Shanaya’s reckless driving led to the tragic accident that caused Pushpa’s daughter in law, Prarthana’s death, the judgment leaves everyone stunned. The case takes a complex turn when the court considers Shanaya’s age. Since she is underage, she cannot be given a regular jail sentence under the law. Instead, the judge delivers an unusual judgment Shanaya is sentenced to “ghar jail,” where she must stay under Pushpa’s supervision at her chawl. This decision shocks Pushpa’s family and the entire community, as emotions run high and no one is ready to accept the presence of the person responsible for the loss of their dear one. On the other hand, Shanaya struggles to imagine adjusting to life in the chawl, but Pushpa stands by the belief that accountability must come with reflection and change. As Shanaya prepares to step into Pushpa’s world, tensions rise and relationships are pushed to the brink. **Karuna Pandey, who essays the role of Pushpa, shared,** > *“This entire courtroom sequence is very emotional because Pushpa has been fighting for justice for Prarthana, and when the verdict comes, it is not something anyone expects. Since Shanaya is underage, the court decides on ‘ghar jail’, where she has to live under Pushpa’s supervision, and that creates a very complex situation for Pushpa as a mother and as someone who believes in justice. While shooting this sequence, I kept thinking about how difficult it must be for Pushpa to live with someone who reminds her of such a deep loss. As an actor portraying that balance of grief and inner strength during the ghar jail sequence is very moving for me.”* > > [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** entertainment --- ### [Cornitos Expands Nuts & Seeds Range with New Trail Mix](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/cornitos-expands-nuts-seeds-range-with-new-trail-mix/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mar, 12:** Strengthening its presence in the better for you snacking segment, Cornitos, one of India’s leading homegrown snacking brands, has announced the launch of **Trail Mix**, a wholesome new addition to its growing Nuts and Seeds range.

Today, that narrative is rapidly evolving. The country’s energy transition is emerging as a powerful strategic tool—one that strengthens economic resilience, industrial competitiveness, and long-term energy security. In an increasingly fragmented global order where fossil fuel markets are volatile and supply chains are frequently disrupted, reducing dependence on imported energy has become a matter of economic sovereignty. India’s rapid expansion in renewable energy, domestic solar manufacturing, and green hydrogen development reflects a broader national strategy aimed at building long-term energy independence. ### Renewable Energy Expansion: Scale as Strategic Leverage India has become one of the world’s fastest-growing renewable energy markets. The country’s renewable capacity—including solar, wind, hydro, and bioenergy—has already crossed 180 GW, with an ambitious target of reaching 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030. Solar power has been the most transformative segment. Over the past decade, competitive bidding, improved technology, and economies of scale have driven solar tariffs to historic lows. This expansion provides more than environmental benefits—it offers strategic advantages. India still imports a large portion of its crude oil and natural gas. By increasing renewable energy production, the country can reduce its exposure to external shocks such as: - *Global oil price fluctuations* - *Geopolitical tensions affecting energy supply* - *Currency volatility impacting import costs* For industries such as steel, textiles, cement, and IT infrastructure, integrating renewable energy into operations helps stabilize electricity costs and improve long-term profitability. A manufacturing hub that integrates on-site solar generation and renewable energy contracts, for example, can significantly reduce its vulnerability to energy price volatility. Over time, predictable energy costs improve export competitiveness and strengthen business margins. When such shifts occur across multiple sectors, the macroeconomic impact becomes substantial. ### Solar Manufacturing: From Import Dependency to Domestic Capability In its early renewable expansion phase, India relied heavily on imported solar modules. While this enabled rapid capacity growth, it also created a new strategic dependency. To address this challenge, the government has introduced a range of initiatives designed to boost domestic solar manufacturing. These include: - *Production-Linked Incentive (PLI) schemes* - *Customs duties on imported solar equipment* - *Capital subsidies for manufacturing ecosystems* The goal is clear: energy independence must also include supply chain independence. As domestic manufacturing expands, renewable developers can reduce procurement delays, minimize currency risks, and accelerate project execution. At the same time, a local solar manufacturing ecosystem creates employment opportunities and strengthens India’s industrial base. In this context, solar manufacturing is not merely an environmental initiative—it is also an industrial policy strategy. ### Green Hydrogen: The Next Strategic Energy Frontier India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission represents a long-term investment in the future of global energy systems. Green hydrogen—produced using renewable electricity—offers a pathway to decarbonize sectors that are otherwise difficult to transition, including: - *Steel production* - *Fertilizer manufacturing* - *Oil refining* - *Heavy transportation* Beyond domestic decarbonization, green hydrogen presents a major economic opportunity. As global demand for low-carbon fuels grows, derivatives such as green ammonia could become major internationally traded commodities. Countries with abundant renewable energy resources and competitive production costs may eventually become global exporters of green fuels. Consider a fertilizer plant that currently relies on imported natural gas. Transitioning to green hydrogen may initially involve higher costs, but it significantly reduces long-term exposure to global gas price volatility. As renewable energy prices fall and electrolyzer technologies improve, green hydrogen economics are expected to become increasingly competitive. This positions India not just as a cleaner energy economy—but potentially as a future energy exporter. ### Energy Security and Economic Sovereignty Energy imports have long been a major contributor to India’s trade deficit. When global oil prices rise, the ripple effects are felt across the economy through inflationary pressures, fiscal stress, and currency instability. Expanding renewable energy helps mitigate these risks by reducing dependence on imported fuels. Greater energy independence can strengthen: - *Fiscal stability by reducing subsidy pressures during energy price spikes* - *Foreign exchange reserves by lowering energy import bills* - *Industrial competitiveness through predictable power costs* - *Geopolitical flexibility by reducing reliance on specific energy-exporting regions* In an increasingly uncertain global environment, energy security is becoming a cornerstone of economic policy. ### Decentralized Power and Local Economic Resilience Another important dimension of India’s energy transition is decentralization. Rooftop solar systems, rural microgrids, and distributed renewable solutions are helping expand energy access while strengthening local economies. In regions where grid infrastructure is weak, decentralized renewable systems can significantly improve productivity. For example: - *Rural enterprise clusters can maintain consistent production* - *Solar-powered cold storage reduces agricultural losses* - *Small businesses gain reliable electricity access* Distributed renewable infrastructure therefore enhances both national energy security and grassroots economic resilience. ### Storage, Smart Grids, and the Technology Advantage Renewable energy growth must be supported by advancements in energy storage and grid modernization. India is investing in multiple technologies to improve energy reliability, including: - *Battery storage systems* - *Pumped hydro storage projects* - *Smart grid technologies* As global storage costs continue to decline, countries that have already built large renewable ecosystems will gain a significant competitive advantage. Early infrastructure investments reduce transition costs and accelerate long-term economic benefits. For businesses and policymakers alike, the strategic logic is simple: the earlier the transition begins, the greater the compounded advantage over time. ### Beyond Climate Commitments India’s clean energy transition is often discussed in the context of international climate commitments. While that perspective remains important, the broader reality is more pragmatic. Energy independence reduces economic vulnerability. Domestic manufacturing strengthens industrial capacity. Green hydrogen opens new global trade opportunities. Renewable power stabilizes long-term economic fundamentals. In a world where disruptions in energy supply can influence geopolitical dynamics, control over energy systems is becoming a strategic asset. India’s clean energy transition, therefore, is not just about reducing carbon emissions. It is about building structural leverage in a century where energy security will shape economic and geopolitical power. The country’s renewable expansion is ultimately transforming not only its energy landscape—but also the trajectory of its economic future. **Categories:** technology --- ### [Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar Relieves Manipur Woman’s Back Pain with Biportal Spine Surgery](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/manipal-hospital-bhubaneswar-relieves-manipur-womans-back-pain-with-biportal-spine-surgery/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Bhubaneswar, Mar 12:** Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar successfully treated a 25-year-old female from Manipur who had been suffering from severe low back pain radiating to both legs for nearly two years. A health worker serving her community, she had visited several hospitals across India and taken medications, but the pain continued to return. Over time, the condition worsened to the point where she could barely walk 50 metres and could not stand for more than five minutes. MRI scans revealed a right-sided L4–L5 disc prolapse, a condition where the soft disc between the spinal bones slips out and presses on a nerve. While some doctors advised open surgery with fixation, she was hesitant due to fear of complications and the possibility of paralysis at a young age. ![Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar Relieves Manipur Woman’s Back Pain with Biportal Spine Surgery](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/45a09hnj5k.jpeg) After learning about minimally invasive spine procedures, she approached Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar in search of a less invasive treatment option. Doctors initially attempted a nerve root block, an injection given near the affected nerve to reduce pain and inflammation, but it did not provide the expected relief. Following a detailed evaluation, Dr. Kasinath Swain, Consultant Spine Surgeon, Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar recommended a Unilateral Biportal Endoscopic (UBE) discectomy, an advanced keyhole spine procedure. The surgery uses a small camera and specialized instruments inserted through tiny openings to remove the slipped disc pressing on the nerve while preserving surrounding muscles and maintaining spinal stability. The procedure was successfully performed, providing her significant relief from pain. **Dr. Kasinath Swain, Consultant Spine Surgeon, Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar, said,** > “Many young patients ignore persistent back pain until it starts affecting their daily activities. In cases where a slipped disc compresses the nerve, minimally invasive techniques like UBE discectomy allow us to treat the problem effectively with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues, which supports faster recovery.” The patient showed rapid improvement after the surgery. On the first day after the procedure, she was able to walk comfortably without back or leg pain and was discharged earlier than patients who undergo traditional open spine surgery. **Sharing her experience, the patient said,** > “Last year I started having back pain and pain in my right leg. I visited a few hospitals and took medicines, which helped for some time, but the pain kept coming back. In the last month it became very severe and I could not walk or stand for long. I was also scared about surgery. After the procedure, my pain has reduced a lot and I am slowly getting back to my normal activities.” This case highlights Manipal Hospital Bhubaneswar’s capability in performing advanced minimally invasive spine procedures that help patients recover faster and return to their daily lives.

The billboard carried a direct challenge: “Think your phone camera can do better? Try.” What made it the most credible billboard was what happened right below it. The exact scene featured in the billboard visual was recreated physically beneath the hoarding, down to the smallest details. Passersby were invited to capture the scene using their own phones and compare their photos with the image displayed above them on the billboard. The image on the hoarding had been shot using the Motorola Edge 70 Fusion, powered by a 50MP Sony LYTIA 710 sensor with Optical Image Stabilization, available on Flipkart. The result was a live, side-by-side test in the middle of the city. People quickly noticed the difference. The image captured on the Motorola Edge 70 Fusion showcased sharper details, truer colours and lifelike clarity compared to many photos taken by other phones. By putting the claim directly in front of consumers, the billboard transformed from an ad into proof. Creators soon began filming vox pop style videos under the installation, asking people to take the challenge and compare results themselves. As these videos spread online, meme pages and internet communities picked up the idea, turning the activation into a widely discussed piece of advertising. In a landscape where brands often rely on hyperbolic messaging, Flipkart’s Most Credible Billboard stood out for doing the opposite. Instead of asking people to believe a claim, it allowed them to verify it. Supporting the idea were smaller stunts across the city, including installations in dimly lit hotspots where people could test their phones in challenging lighting conditions. A metro train wrap further highlighted the phone’s ability to capture fast moving subjects clearly. But it was the billboard experiment that became the centerpiece of the campaign, demonstrating how credible advertising can cut through louder claims. **Raghav Bagai, Co-founder, Sociowash, said:** > *“In a category where every brand claims to have the best camera, we wanted to flip the approach. Instead of making another claim, we created the most credible billboard by allowing people to test their camera against the new launch by Motorola. When a consumer can compare their own photo with the one shot on the Motorola Edge 70 Fusion right there on the street, the product’s capability becomes impossible to ignore.”* With the Motorola Edge 70 Fusion now available on Flipkart, the campaign showed that sometimes the strongest marketing claim is simply letting people see the proof themselves.

Founders hire quickly, ship fast, solve problems in real time, and keep the culture “organic.” It works. Until it doesn’t. Somewhere between 15 and 30 employees, many startups hit an invisible wall. Execution slows down. Good people get confused. Roles overlap. Managers are promoted too early. Feedback becomes emotional. Hiring turns into a gamble. And the founder becomes the default problem solver again. That moment is not a strategy problem. It is a people systems problem. Shailesh Kantak, a leadership and people systems coach and the Founder of the MSME India Network (MINT), has spent years working closely with businesses at this exact stage. “Most founders don’t fail because they lack ambition,” he says. “They get stuck because the business is still running on personal control instead of repeatable people systems.” **The real startup bottleneck is not funding, it is team design** Startups are built on intensity. But intensity cannot replace clarity forever. When a team grows, informal coordination stops working. What the business needs next is simple structure, with human warmth intact. Strong people systems do not mean corporate HR. They mean clear roles, clear expectations, clear rhythms, and clear leadership habits. They help a founder move from firefighting to direction setting. A few people systems that decide whether a startup scales smoothly or stalls: - A hiring system that filters for skill and attitude, not just speed - Role clarity that removes confusion and prevents silent resentment - Performance rhythms like weekly check ins and monthly reviews that keep work visible - Feedback habits that are respectful, specific, and consistent - Culture practices that are designed, not left to chance “When these systems are missing, even a great team starts underperforming,” says Shailesh. “And the founder starts feeling like the only dependable person in the room.” **Enter MSME India Network, a community built for founders who want a self running team** The MSME India Network is a learning and implementation community designed for Indian startup founders and MSME business owners who want to build strong teams and scale without founder dependence. MINT is built around one core idea. The business should not wait for the founder. It helps members escape what the community calls the Founder’s Trap, where the founder is involved in every decision, every follow up, and every escalation. Over time, this trap limits growth and drains energy. MINT’s mission is to help founders build leadership capability and people systems that scale. Its long term goal is to enable a community of 25,000 plus MSME business owners by 2030, and help them build organisations that are stable, values driven, and execution strong. **How the community works** MINT is not a passive content library. It is structured around participation, reflection, and action. Here is what members typically experience inside the community: **1) Clarity sessions that start with the founder** Founders begin by building personal and leadership clarity. This creates better decision making and steadier leadership behaviour. “If the founder is unclear, the team will always feel unclear,” says Kantak. **2) Practical frameworks for building people systems** Members learn a simple people systems framework that covers the full journey of team building. Attracting the right talent, hiring with structure, nurturing culture, enabling learning and growth, and building engagement through ownership. **3) Templates, playbooks, and implementation support** This is where most founders feel relief. Instead of starting from scratch, they get tools they can apply immediately. Job description formats, interview scorecards, role clarity sheets, feedback frameworks, performance check in guides, and simple dashboards. **4) Community learning formats that drive action** MINT runs hackathons, bootcamps, and guided sprints where members work on one system at a time. The environment encourages sharing, accountability, and real progress. A member founder from a services startup recently described the shift in one line, “I stopped chasing my team for updates because the weekly rhythm did it for me.” **Why this matters for startups right now** Startup ecosystems celebrate product, growth, and capital. But people systems often get treated as a later stage concern. In reality, people systems are a growth lever from day one. Startups compete for talent, and retention is fragile. A strong engineer or a strong sales performer will not stay in a workplace that feels chaotic or unclear. Shailesh puts it plainly. “Good people don’t leave loudly. They leave slowly, in their effort first, and then with their resignation.” The earlier startups design their people systems, the faster they can grow without breaking culture, quality, or founder health. **A founder profile that explains why this community is built differently** Shailesh Kantak is not building MINT from theory. He is the Founder and CEO of Flexi Ventures Pvt. Ltd., an HR Consulting and Talent Acquisition firm founded in 2014. Over the years, he has worked closely with business owners and leadership teams across industries, helping them solve people challenges on the ground. That experience shaped MINT’s tone and design. Practical, founder friendly, and rooted in what actually works inside Indian startups. “Founders don’t need motivation,” says Shailesh. “They need a clear path. They need systems that reduce dependence. And they need a community that keeps them honest about implementation.” **The bigger vision** MINT is ultimately a movement to make Indian startups and MSMEs stronger from the inside. Not only through strategy and sales, but through leadership behaviour, team capability, and repeatable people systems. For founders who want to scale, this is the quiet work that changes everything. When people systems are strong, execution becomes predictable. Culture becomes intentional. Teams become dependable. And founders finally get space to think, build, and lead. As Shailesh says, “The goal is not to work less. The goal is to stop being the system.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [IIIT-Delhi Strengthens Environmental Commitment with Sandalwood Plantation Drive](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/education/iiit-delhi-strengthens-environmental-commitment-with-sandalwood-plantation-drive/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ``` ``` **New Delhi: Mar 12, 2026**: Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT-Delhi) has successfully organised a special “Plantation of Sandalwood Trees” campaign for environmental sustainability across its campus.

The new anti-scam tools include device linking warnings on WhatsApp, alerts for suspicious friend requests on Facebook and an expanded rollout of advanced scam detection on Messenger. **1. WhatsApp device linking warning:** WhatsApp will now alert users when behavioral signals suggest a linking request might be suspicious. Scammers often attempt to trick people into linking their WhatsApp account to another device or scanning QR codes. These alerts will show users where the request is coming from and display a clear warning that it may be a scam, giving people the chance to pause and reconsider before it happens. **2. Facebook alerts for suspicious friend requests:** Meta is testing new warnings on Facebook that will appear when you send or receive a request from an account that shows certain signs of suspicious activity, including when you do not have many mutual friends with them or they indicate a different country location in their profile. The alert will help people make informed decisions before blocking or rejecting suspicious requests. **3. Expanding advanced scam detection on Messenger:** When conversations show patterns associated with common scams, such as fraudulent job offers, people will receive a warning and have the option to submit messages for AI review. If flagged as a scam, people will be guided on steps to block or report the suspicious account. In addition to the product updates, Meta continues to aggressively combat scam activity to protect people and businesses. Last year alone, Meta removed over 159 million scam ads, 92% of which were taken down before anyone reported them. **In India in 2025, the company banned more than 12.1 million pieces of ad content for violating its policies against Fraud, Scam, and Deceptive Practices, out of which over 93% were removed proactively.** Fighting scams requires more than technology and enforcement. It requires education and raising awareness, especially for vulnerable populations. Earlier this year, Meta launched the third edition of its flagship anti-scam **‘Scam Se Bacho’ in partnership with the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) and the Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI).** The year-long campaign featured acclaimed Indian actor Neena Gupta and leading digital creators to help people identify and avoid online scams.

With increasing life expectancy and rising healthcare costs, the financial pressures on retirees today are very real. As more people aim to maintain their lifestyle and financial independence, they are looking for smart solutions that offer both stability and growth. Many retirees today dream of affording luxury items like cars or foreign vacations. Whether it’s the FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) generation, aspiring entrepreneurs, or individuals navigating career transitions, traditional retirement plans are no longer enough. What’s more, the fear of outliving their savings is a common worry for many. But what if retirement didn’t have to be a constant source of stress? What if you could have guaranteed income and still benefit from market-linked growth opportunities? That’s where the *Shubh Flexi Pension Plan* comes in. With this plan, you can enjoy both security and growth; ensuring that you can retire comfortably and confidently, without compromising on the lifestyle you deserve. **A Smarter Way to Plan Your Retirement** With increasing lifespans and rising healthcare costs, the financial pressure is real. Traditional ‘debt oriented’ pension plans offer peace of mind, but without any growth in the income amount received. On the other hand, index-linked investments offer growth, but with no certainty. What if you could get the best of both worlds? **Shubh Flexi Pension Plan** offers guaranteed income for life, with the added benefit of market-linked growth potential, boosted by equity investment up to 40%. Here’s how Tata AIA Shubh Flexi Pension Plan, a ‘Equity oriented, Regular pay’ solution works: 1. **Guaranteed Income for Life** You receive annuity payouts for as long as you live. No need to worry about running out of money during retirement. 2. **Market-Linked Upside** With the **Variable Annuity** option, you can tie a portion of your income to the performance of the NIFTY 50. Choose from: - 60% guaranteed (debt) + 40% market-linked (equity) - 70% guaranteed (debt) + 30% market-linked (Equity) - 80% guaranteed (debt) + 20% market-linked (Equity) - 90% guaranteed (debt) + 10% market-linked (Equity) This ensures that while you have a solid base income, your pension can also grow with the market’s performance; helping you keep up with inflation. **Kshitij Sharma**, Appointed Actuary, Tata AIA Life said, > “*Retirement planning in India is evolving. With longer life expectancies, rising healthcare costs and fluctuating interest rates, people want solutions that not only provide stability but also grow with them. The Shubh Flexi Pension Plan is our answer — giving customers both guaranteed income and the opportunity to grow their savings.”* **Designed Around Your Retirement Journey** No two retirements look the same. Everyone has their own unique goals and timeline. The Shubh Flexi Pension Plan offers flexibility to suit different retirement needs: - **Start Early:** You can start building your retirement corpus as early as age 35, giving you the power of compounding over time. - **Choose When Income Starts:** - **Immediate Annuity:** Start receiving income right after retirement. - **Deferred Annuity:** Let your money grow for up to 20 years before payouts begin, to enhance your corpus. The maximum 20 year deferment is addition to PPT. e.g. if a policy has a premium payment term of 12 years, the maximum deferment can be 12 + 20 = 32 years - **Flexible Premium Options:** - Pay a lump sum - Spread payments over 2–12 years **Protect What You Leave Behind** It’s not just about securing your own future; it’s also about protecting your family’s. With the **Return of Purchase Price** option, your nominee can receive the original purchase price when you are no longer around. **Who Is It Ideal For?** The Shubh Flexi Pension Plan isn’t just for one type of consumer, it’s for anyone looking to retire comfortably: - Early planners who want to build their retirement income early (FIRE generation) - Lifestyle aspirants, who aim to maintain their lifestyle while enjoying financial independence, - Pre-retirees who want predictable, reliable income - Retirees who want stability with growth potential - NPS subscribers seeking annuitisation options - Individuals who want a structured, long-term retirement strategy **The Bottom Line** Retirement should be about freedom — not financial stress. The **Shubh Flexi Pension Plan** offers: ✔ Guaranteed income for life ✔ Market-linked growth potential to beat inflation ✔ Flexible premium and payout options ✔ Liquidity when you need it ✔ Family protection for peace of mind *Because when you plan your retirement with Tata AIA, it’s not just about securing your future — it’s about living it fully, confidently, and independently.* [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ### [Rasna’s 2026 Summer Revolution: Nutri+ Wellness Meets the Viral Revival of Prankies](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/rasnas-2026-summer-revolution-nutri-wellness-meets-the-viral-revival-of-prankies/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Rasna’s 2026 Summer Revolution: Nutri+ Wellness Meets the Viral Revival of Prankies](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/bjywcve3ol.jpeg) **New Delhi, Mar 12:** Rasna, India’s most iconic and beloved beverage brand, is officially redefining the summer refreshment landscape with the launch of **Rasna Nutri+**.

WTI crude climbed to around $94.3 per barrel, while Brent approached $99.9 per barrel, indicating that concerns over supply disruptions are still dominating sentiment in global energy markets. The rally came despite the International Energy Agency (IEA) announcing plans to release about 400 million barrels from strategic reserves in an effort to stabilize the market. However, the price reaction suggests that investors are currently focusing more on the risk of actual supply disruptions rather than on temporary intervention measures. The market’s primary focus remains geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly the ongoing conflict involving the United States and Iran, which has shown little sign of easing. Recent U.S. intelligence reports indicate that Iran’s leadership structure remains largely intact and is not at immediate risk of collapse, despite continued airstrikes by the United States and Israel. This suggests that the prospect of regime change in Iran is unlikely in the near term, implying that tensions in the region could persist for an extended period. If the conflict continues, the risk of disruptions to energy supplies from the Middle East is likely to remain elevated, particularly regarding oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, a key chokepoint that carries roughly 20% of global oil supply. In this environment, geopolitical risks continue to be reflected in oil prices, helping maintain elevated levels in the near term. Meanwhile, although the planned release of around 400 million barrels is relatively large, the market generally views the move as a short-term stabilizing measure. If geopolitical tensions persist or oil transportation through the Strait of Hormuz faces prolonged disruption, the strategic reserves may not fully offset potential supply shortages from the Middle East. As a result, concerns about supply risks linked to geopolitical tensions continue to support oil prices in the short term. With supply risks still unresolved, investors are likely to keep pricing in the possibility of future supply shortages, thereby sustaining upward pressure on crude prices. In my view, the outlook for oil prices in the coming period will depend largely on geopolitical developments in the Middle East. If tensions escalate further or new signs of supply disruptions emerge, oil prices may continue their upward trajectory, with WTI potentially moving toward the $100 per barrel level and Brent likely exceeding $100 per barrel. Conversely, any signs of de-escalation in the region could ease supply concerns and allow oil prices to correct.

However, kidney disease is often referred to as a **“silent condition”** because noticeable symptoms may not appear until the disease has significantly progressed. Health experts point out that nearly **10–15% of the Indian population** is estimated to be affected by some form of **Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD)**, while many cases remain undiagnosed due to lack of awareness and absence of early symptoms. With the rising prevalence of **Diabetes** and **Hypertension** in India, the risk of kidney disease is also increasing, as these conditions remain among the leading causes of kidney failure. Doctors explain that both diabetes and hypertension can silently damage the kidneys over time. Persistently high blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes can damage the tiny blood vessels responsible for filtering waste from the blood, gradually reducing kidney function. Similarly, uncontrolled high blood pressure places excess strain on these delicate blood vessels, causing them to weaken or narrow and eventually impair kidney performance. **Dr. P. Vikranth Reddy**, Clinical Director & Senior Consultant – Nephrology at **CARE Hospitals**, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, said, > “Many people are unaware that kidney disease can develop silently without clear symptoms in the early stages. Diabetes and high blood pressure are two major risk factors that gradually damage the kidneys over several years. Regular health screening is extremely important, especially for people with these conditions, to detect kidney problems early and prevent serious complications.” Doctors warn that ignoring kidney problems can lead to progressive damage and eventual kidney failure — a stage where the kidneys can no longer perform their essential functions. At this point, patients may require **dialysis** or **kidney transplantation** to survive. Untreated kidney disease can also result in complications such as fluid retention, anemia, bone disorders, cardiovascular disease and electrolyte imbalance. Experts say awareness of early warning signs can help individuals seek timely medical care. Symptoms that may indicate kidney problems include swelling in the feet, ankles or around the eyes, changes in urination patterns such as frequent or reduced urination, foamy or blood-tinged urine, persistent fatigue, nausea or loss of appetite, muscle cramps, sleep disturbances and uncontrolled high blood pressure. Doctors recommend consulting a physician if these symptoms persist, particularly for individuals with diabetes, hypertension, obesity, a family history of kidney disease, those above 40 years of age, or people who frequently use painkillers or medications that may affect kidney function. Simple blood and urine tests can help detect kidney disease at an early stage. **Dr. Ratan Jha**, Clinical Director & Senior Consultant, Nephrologist & Transplant Physician at **CARE Hospitals**, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad, emphasized the importance of preventive care and lifestyle modification. > “Kidney disease is largely preventable if risk factors are managed early. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, controlling blood sugar and blood pressure, following a balanced diet with reduced salt intake, staying physically active and avoiding unnecessary use of painkillers can significantly reduce the risk of kidney damage,” he said. With advancements in medical technology, modern nephrology care now offers advanced diagnostic evaluation, high-efficiency dialysis therapies, comprehensive kidney transplant programs and multidisciplinary management of complex kidney disorders, helping patients manage kidney disease more effectively and improve long-term health outcomes. As part of **World Kidney Day**, **CARE Hospitals** will also conduct awareness initiatives, educational sessions and preventive health check-ups to encourage early detection and better management of kidney-related conditions. Doctors emphasized that **timely screening, awareness and lifestyle modification remain the most effective ways to prevent kidney disease and reduce the growing burden of kidney failure in India.** [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [upGrad Enterprise partners with JNS Cloud Solutions for AI & Cloud skilling in Africa](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/upgrad-enterprise-partners-with-jns-cloud-solutions-for-ai-cloud-skilling-in-africa/) **Published:** March 12, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 12:** **upGrad Enterprise**, the Corporate Skilling and Workforce Transformation division of global skilling major upGrad today announced a strategic collaboration with **JNS Cloud Solutions**, a leading cloud and AI transformation company, to drive large-scale AI and cloud skilling initiatives across Africa.

(OTCQB: CERO) (“CERo” or the “Company”), an innovative cellular immunotherapy company pursuing new targets and novel phagocytic mechanism, provides an update through the letter to stockholders and stakeholders from CEO Chris Ehrlich: To our stockholders and stakeholders: Following our recent Form 8-K filing confirming receipt of convertible debt funding to support current operations, we believe it is an appropriate time to provide an update on CERo Therapeutics’ operational and scientific progress. Over the past six months, the Company has advanced its clinical development activities, engaged in strategic discussions, and continued to manage resources with fiscal discipline. During this period, we have progressed the development of our lead candidate, CER-1236, including observations consistent with an acceptable safety and tolerability profile to date, across multiple treated patients. We have also observed biologic activity consistent with the mechanism of the therapy, including approximately 20–70-fold cell expansion, peaking between days 7–14 and followed by continued persistence as measured in peripheral blood. These early observations contribute to our understanding of CER-1236 and support continued clinical evaluation of the program. Notably, in the second patient treated in our ongoing Phase I study, we observed an interval of apparent disease stability during which the patient’s disease progression and requirement for platelet transfusion support did not increase following multiple infusions of CER-1236. While this is an early observation from a single patient and Phase I studies are primarily designed to evaluate safety, we believe the clinical course of this patient is noteworthy. This patient had previously been diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), a disorder of the bone marrow that can progress to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The emerging clinical observations provide an early signal that supports continued investigation of CER-1236. These data are helping guide the Company’s ongoing development strategy, including exploration of dosing approaches and patient selection in future cohorts. While CER-1236 demonstrated activity across multiple tumor models during preclinical development, the observations to date in the MDS setting highlight a potentially important area for further study. We believe these early findings may also support future discussions with potential strategic partners regarding the continued development of the program. *Progress in Phase 1 Clinical Trial and Strategic Focus on MDS* We recently announced data from our ongoing CERTAIN-T Phase 1 clinical trial that reflects the Company’s current development approach for our lead compound, CER-1236. Based in part on early clinical observations in a patient with MDS, a disorder of the bone marrow that can precede AML, the Company has refined its development strategy to increase focus on enrolling patients with MDS while maintaining optionality in AML. This strategic refinement was informed in part by observations from a patient who received four infusions of CER-1236 over approximately five months at the lowest dose level in the study. As previously announced, prior to receiving CER-1236 the patient required frequent platelet transfusions. During the period following treatment in the study, the patient experienced an interval of platelet transfusion independence lasting more than two months, exceeding the commonly referenced ≥56-day durability benchmark used in MDS studies. The Company is actively seeking to enroll additional patients with similar clinical characteristics to further evaluate this observation. If similar findings are observed in additional patients, these data may help inform future discussions with regulatory authorities and potential strategic partners regarding the continued development of CER-1236. To date, the Company has initiated the second cohort of the trial, and two additional patients have recently undergone apheresis, a procedure in which blood cells are collected to manufacture CER-1236 for each individual patient. The Company plans to initiate dosing for these patients during March and April. *Pursuing a Strategy to List on a Major Exchange* Re-establishing our listing on a major exchange remains one of our key priorities. To that end, we have engaged with an investment bank to raise capital and pursue a strategy intended to support a potential relisting on the Nasdaq Capital Market. We believe that our new partner’s institutional relationships and sector expertise align well with our goal of raising sufficient capital in a disciplined manner while attracting longer-term, knowledgeable investors who are familiar with the clinical development landscape and strategic direction. In addition, we are considering other potential paths for relisting on a national securities exchange, including potential business combinations with listed companies, which may include a reverse merger or a business combination with a special purpose acquisition company. *Continued Funding Support* As recently disclosed, as we pursue new financing opportunities and seek to relist on Nasdaq, our lead investor continues to support CERo’s operations through investments in convertible debt. Their commitment to CERo has enabled us to sustain operations and advance our clinical programs. We believe our clinical development and focus on our financing efforts and strategy for relisting on Nasdaq will be beneficial to all CERo stockholders and are grateful for the continued confidence our loyal stockholder base. *Strategic Discussions Regarding Early Data Readouts* We continue to engage in ongoing discussions with potential strategic partners following the most recent data readouts, as is regularly seen in the biotech industry. While these conversations are encouraging, they remain at an early stage and have not resulted in formal agreements. We believe the evolution of our strategy and growing dataset may catalyze future conversations. To the extent permitted under applicable law and contractual obligations, we expect to provide further updates to stockholders should any of these discussions advance in a manner that materially impacts the Company. *Board Expansion – Appointment of Eric Francois* Finally, we [recently announced that Eric Francois](https://tracking.us.nylas.com/l/18ab731e4c6c403f8eb6d9c3e8bc961e/1/129eaae28d91deebdc87ea0652ba8a4f2ba54b1df9f4295f6e1a7672b8304faf?cache_buster=1773239598) joined our board of directors. Eric brings decades of experience in life sciences finance, capital markets, and corporate development, including deep expertise in capital raising, M&A, and strategic partnerships. His involvement with the Company is among multiple catalysts that, we believe, will positively impact CERo in the months to come. Eric was instrumental in our discussions with our new investment bank and is already assisting with other potential funding opportunities, operational improvements, and external viewpoints on the Company’s next phase of growth. *Dedicated, Engaged Professionals Working Together to Achieve Success* It should never go without saying that CERo’s world class team – employees, partners, consultants, and advisors – all remain focused and excited about achieving the common goal of improved patient care and improving patients’ lives through innovative clinical development. Despite challenges that might have derailed other companies several times over, the CERo team has continued to perform with enthusiasm toward the achievement of bringing CER-1236 to the next inflection point and beyond. Our take-home message is clear: CERo is operational, continuing to advance our clinical programs, and generally building momentum. We are committed to transparent communication, and we look forward to sharing the outcomes of each of our ongoing activities in the future. We thank you for your continued support and confidence in our novel approach to treatment and our leadership.

The rebrand reflects a deliberate strategic evolution of the Company’s mission, extending its consumer-first foundation beyond fitness equipment e-commerce into the design and deployment of AI-powered robotics and intelligent consumer technologies. “This rebrand is a revolution in our ambition, but an evolution of our expertise,” said Sam Lu, GMEX Robotics CEO. “As Fitell, we built a robust operation centered on consumer needs. As GMEX Robotics, we amplify that focus by applying advanced artificial intelligence and robotics to solve real human problems. Our fitness and health division remains a vital part of our operations; it is our testing ground and our inspiration. It ensures that as we build sophisticated robots, we never lose sight of the human they are designed to serve.” The Company filed its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association in accordance with the BVI Business Companies Act (as amended) and, effective March 2, 2026, completed its legal name change to “GMEX ROBOTICS CORPORATION ” pursuant to such filing (the “**Name Change**“). In connection with the Name Change, the Company will also change its ticker symbol on the Nasdaq Capital Market (the “Nasdaq”) from “FTEL” to “GMEX” (the “**Ticker Change**“). The Company’s Class A ordinary shares (“**Ordinary** **Shares**“) are expected to commence trading on the Nasdaq under the new corporate name and new ticker symbol as early as market open on March 12th, 2026. In connection with the name and ticker changes, the Company’s CUSIP number will remain unchanged. No action is required by existing shareholders, nor will any certificates representing Ordinary Shares need to be exchanged. The rebrand reflects the next phase of the company’s long-term vision. Effective immediately, GMEX Robotics will focus on designing, manufacturing, and commercializing AI-driven robotic solutions for the consumer market, building on its foundation of expertise in fitness and health products. This shift represents the Company’s commitment to leading the next technological wave, where intelligent machines become an integral part of daily life. Rather than a wholesale departure from its roots, GMEX Robotics will continue to operate its existing fitness and health-related product business, which remains the crucial operational foundation for future growth. This legacy vertical functions as a hands-on laboratory for understanding human movement, ergonomics, and daily routines. The deep understanding of consumer wellness garnered through years of serving the fitness market will directly inform the design and development of the Company’s next generation robotic products. **GMEX Robotics will focus its efforts on three primary pillars:** 1. **Consumer and Commercial Robotics:** Developing intuitive and interactive robots designed to assist with daily tasks, provide smart home integration, and offer new levels of convenience and connectivity to boost productivity. 2. **AI-Driven Hardware:** Embedding advanced artificial intelligence into physical products to create self-learning and adaptive user experiences. 3. **Innovation & Ecosystem:** Building a robust ecosystem of robotic products that communicate and evolve, powered by proprietary AI algorithms. While the Company’s history in the fitness sector provides a strong foundation in logistics, supply chain management, and consumer engagement, GMEX Robotics is now engineered for a different market. The Company is actively assembling a new leadership team and technical workforce specializing in mechatronics, computer vision, and machine learning to drive this ambitious agenda. The transition from Fitell to GMEX Robotics signifies the close of one chapter and the exciting, bold beginning of another. The Company invites investors, innovators, and consumers to join them as they build the intelligent future.

Starring celebrated Bengali actress **Rituparna Sengupta** **alongside Rahul Bose, Kaushik Sen, and Ananya Chatterjee**, the film is directed by **Sayantan Ghoshal** and blends elements of crime, drama, and psychological intrigue. At the heart of Madam Sengupta is a gripping story of a renowned cartoonist whose life takes a dark turn when she begins searching for answers behind her daughter’s mysterious death. As her investigation unfolds, it reveals a chilling trail of poetic murders that slowly points back to someone from her past—her estranged ex-husband. What follows is an intense narrative where art, obsession, and buried secrets collide, gradually exposing the darker layers of Kolkata’s cultural and social landscape. Bengali cinema has long been celebrated for its rich storytelling tradition, literary depth, and powerful performances.

The session explored the evolution of India’s regulatory framework and its role in shaping a stable and credible investment environment. Shri Narayan emphasised that sustained capital formation requires policy consistency, regulatory clarity, and strong institutional foundations. He noted that over the past decade, India’s capital markets have strengthened significantly, supported by improved governance standards, enhanced disclosure norms, and deeper institutional participation. “As I mentioned, the commitments today in AIFs are about ₹16 lakh crore. Seventy percent of those commitments are from domestic participants. This rise of the industry is just remarkable,” he said. Speaking on the expansion of alternative investments, he observed that the growing scale of private capital reflects increasing domestic participation as well as sustained global interest in India’s long-term economic trajectory. He underscored the importance of maintaining a balanced regulatory approach, and encouraging innovation and market development while safeguarding investor protection and systemic stability. “If you move towards 100% accredited investor model, I believe you have a strong case to make to SEBI to kill every single clause related to pari passu and pro rata, which is essentially for investor protection,” Shri Narayan observed. Building on this, Shri Narayan further highlighted that as India seeks to deepen long-term pools of capital across asset classes, constructive engagement between regulators, policymakers, and market participants remains essential. A predictable and transparent policy environment, he stated, enables long-duration investments and supports enterprise growth, infrastructure development, and financial resilience. Addressing the broader investment landscape, he remarked that institutional strength and regulatory credibility will continue to anchor investor confidence amid evolving global economic conditions. He added that India’s regulatory institutions have demonstrated adaptability and prudence, positioning the country as a stable destination for long-term capital. “What you should ask SEBI is, ‘Let us as fund managers certify who is an accredited investor, and you come and inspect us later on in case we are not doing our job properly’. Then argue to the regulator that, ‘You don’t need to worry about protecting an Accredited Investor because they have the wealth, they have the savvy, and they understand markets’,” he added. The IVCA Conclave 2026, an influential annual gathering for India’s alternate capital ecosystem, convenes policymakers, regulators, investors, and industry leaders from private equity, venture capital, credit markets, and infrastructure financing, to weigh in on the challenges and opportunities for this dynamic landscape.

The market remains highly sensitive to developments in the Middle East, where elevated geopolitical tensions continue to expose energy infrastructure and shipping routes to significant risks. Supply conditions have already tightened, as production in parts of the region has been curtailed due to limited storage capacity and difficulties in exporting crude amid shipping constraints. While some volumes have been redirected through pipelines, these alternatives could remain insufficient to fully offset the loss of maritime transport, leaving export capacity below normal levels. At the same time, a coordinated release of strategic petroleum reserves by G7 countries could help ease immediate shortage concerns and stabilize prices. Additional measures, including insurance coverage for tankers and the use of military escorts, could support the resumption of shipments. If implemented effectively, these steps may limit further upside in oil and could lead to renewed downside pressure as supply fears begin to ease. From a technical perspective, the reversal this week has brought oil prices back into a consolidation range, close to the levels observed for much of the period since 2023. Given the current conditions, caution remains prevalent regarding oil, while a clearer directional trend would typically be required before increasing allocation.

This is clearly reflected in the state achieving a real growth rate of 11.2% in 2024-25, the highest among major states, according to a recent economic survey by the Tamil Nadu government. Tamil Nadu benefits from significant productive capacity and efficiency advantages along with high levels of human capital, reflected in literacy, technical education and skill development, ensuring a productive workforce capable of supporting both manufacturing and services, the survey added. Few places illustrate that story better than Sriperumbudur. Primarily an agrarian economic area, the region got a facelift with it first entered the global manufacturing map in the late 1990s with the arrival of a Korean automobile major. Over time, the ecosystem diversified. When Samsung Electronics decided to establish its Sunguvarchatram plant in 2007, it signalled the region’s evolution from an auto hub into broader electronics manufacturing cluster.Today, Sriperumbudur and the surrounding belt host several global electronics and telecom manufacturers — including Samsung, Foxconn, Flex, Salcomp and Dell — along with a dense network of component suppliers serving domestic and export markets for mobile phones, laptops and consumer durables. The region has emerged as a major employment generator, providing jobs for over 70,000 people. “The Sriperumbudur story reinforces a critical policy insight: manufacturing-led growth delivers its greatest impact when job creation is paired with skill development, fair wages, and long-term workforce investment. Companies like Samsung Electronics demonstrate how early, sustained industrial investments can transform regional economies – not just by creating employment, but by formalising livelihoods, raising income standards, and improving workforce productivity,” **said Shailesh Khanna, Brand Lead, ManpowerGroup India.** Industrialisation in Sriperumbudur has reshaped household income patterns, skill profiles and aspirations. Young people who once migrated to cities for uncertain employment are now able to access formal-sector jobs closer to home. Ancillary industries — logistics, housing, retail, food services and training institutes — have flourished alongside anchor investors. Industry observers note that early entrants like Hyundai and Samsung helped establish wage and welfare benchmarks that influenced the broader ecosystem. Publicly available employer review platforms such as Glassdoor and AmbitionBox indicate that established players in the region are often perceived to offer structured wage growth and formal employment benefits. Such practices contribute to workforce stability in what has become one of India’s most important electronics corridors. Nearly three decades after the first wave of global manufacturers arrived, the transformation is visible in everyday life. Concrete homes have replaced thatched roofs. Educational attainment has risen. Financial savings and asset ownership have increased. A generation that once depended on agriculture and informal work now participates in formal manufacturing and global supply chains. “Overseas investments catalyze local economic growth by enabling the development of modern industrial estates in Chennai — fostering technology transfer, creating quality jobs, and empowering local companies to scale and compete globally, ” **said Sanjay Chugh, City Head & Director, Anarock Property Consultants Pvt Ltd.** This is reflected amply in the Tamil Nadu growth story which is now outperforming the national index for growth. The state is poised to become a $150-billion electronics hub by 2030 and will also become a one trillion-dollar economy by 2030-31 with a target of 12 to 14% annual nominal growth. Sriperumbudur’s journey underscores a broader lesson: industrial investment, when sustained over time, can anchor local prosperity. Electronics manufacturing has not merely created factories; it has reshaped a regional economy.

The momentum reflects a growing shift in expectations: not just faster access to money, but a fundamentally different relationship with how income works. That shift is also reflected in demand: more than 600,000 people signed up for the Live Pay waitlist. Live Pay is the first technology to stream earnings in real time, exclusively through EarnIn Card. As people work, their earnings update continuously — second by second — allowing pay to function as a live system rather than a delayed transaction tied to an outdated pay cycle. By making available income visible and accessible on a user’s terms, Live Pay is redefining how people interact with their earnings. Since July 2025, Live Pay users log into the EarnIn app more than 50 times per month to monitor earnings, plan spending, track their credit score, and access pay as needed — engagement levels more commonly associated with consumer technology platforms than traditional financial products. > “Paychecks are already digital — they just don’t behave like it,” said **Ram Palaniappan, Founder and CEO of EarnIn**. “People can see their work and earnings update in real time, yet access to that money is still governed by outdated pay cycles. Live Pay brings pay into the digital age, giving workers real-time visibility and access to their earnings so cash flow aligns with how they actually live and work.” Early data also suggests that real-time income can drive healthier financial outcomes. After four months of Live Pay usage, customers saw an average credit score increase of 21 points, signaling improved financial behaviors among active users. The rise of real-time pay reflects a broader disconnect between modern work and legacy payroll infrastructure. While work, earnings tracking, and financial activity now operate digitally and instantly, most payroll systems still rely on fixed schedules designed for a paper-based era. Today, approximately 73% of U.S. workers are paid biweekly, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics — a structure increasingly misaligned with how people earn, spend, and manage money in a digital economy. **How it Works:** Live Pay enables people to stream their pay in real time – up to $1,500 per pay period, based on eligibility and usage limits – with no interest on transactions, no hidden fees, and no credit check required. It makes pay accessible on EarnIn Card, backed by Visa and works anywhere Visa is accepted. Against that backdrop, even the recently proposed 10% APR on credit card cap underscores how different Live Pay is: while capped credit still carries interest, Live Pay gives people access to their own earned income with no interest on transaction and no hidden fees. Live Pay also turns every paycheck into an opportunity to build credit history, making each payday more valuable over time.

While women in HR currently earn around 9–10% less on average, the gap is narrowing steadily as organizations strengthen pay transparency and inclusion practices. The study is based on 1.84 lakh validated compensation data points from more than 600 organizations across 10 industries and 10 cities, offering one of the most comprehensive views of HR compensation trends in India. The study highlights a dramatic shift toward tech-enabled HR roles, with HR Analytics managers earning around ₹60 lakh per annum, approximately 114% above the HR median, making it the highest-paying specialization within the function. HR careers also show strong long-term earning potential, with salaries increasing 12 times from entry-level roles (₹8.5 lakh) to leadership positions (₹125 lakh). The steepest salary acceleration occurs between 10 and 13 years of experience, when HR professionals typically transition from specialist roles to strategic leadership positions such as HR Business Partners or function heads. **Tapan Acharya, CRO, Keka said,** “What the data clearly shows is that HR compensation in India is no longer driven by titles or tenure, it’s driven by business complexity. The 15x salary spread and location-based differentials reflect where organisations are placing real accountability. HR roles that influence productivity, compliance, and long-term value creation are being priced very differently today, and that shift is visible across industries.” The report also identifies technology, BFSI, and GCC-driven organizations as the highest-paying sectors, offering 20–30% salary premiums. Despite this, Tier II cities’ HRs earn 20-30% less than those in cities like Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Pune, which dominate the country’s highest-paid HR talent pool. The report also reveals sharp disparities within the profession. HR careers now show nearly a 12× salary spread, with entry-level HR executives earning a median ₹8.5 lakh annually while CHROs and HR CoE heads earn around ₹1.25 crore, underscoring the widening gap between operational and strategic HR roles.

The programme was aimed at strengthening direct communication between the Government and citizens, with special focus on assisting families belonging to the Below Poverty Line (BPL) category and other economically weaker sections of society. During the programme, 34 Block Administrative Centres (BACs) across the State were connected through video conferencing, enabling interaction between the Chief Minister, Block Development Officers (BDOs), and beneficiaries from different districts. A large number of beneficiaries from the DESME BPL category, along with several others from economically weaker sections, received assistance under various welfare initiatives. These included the Chief Minister’s Medical Assistance Scheme (CMMAS), Chief Minister’s Discretionary Grant (CMDG), Chief Minister’s Self-Employment Assistance Scheme (CMSEAS), Sikkim Garib Awas Yojana (SGAY), allotment of land to the landless, the Chief Minister Education Assistance Scheme (CMEAS) for deserving students, as well as opportunities for government employment. The beneficiaries were selected through a rigorous and transparent verification process to ensure that assistance reaches the most deserving individuals. While interacting with the beneficiaries, the Chief Minister assured that official orders and benefits would be delivered at their respective BACs within a week, eliminating the need for them to travel long distances to government offices. Reiterating the Government’s commitment to supporting BPL families and economically disadvantaged sections, the Chief Minister stated that the administration remains steadfast in ensuring that welfare schemes effectively reach those who need them the most. He further informed that such programmes would be organised every two months to enhance transparency, strengthen service delivery, and empower citizens across the State. The delivery of benefits will also be facilitated at the respective BACs to ensure greater convenience for beneficiaries. The “Connect to CM” platform, launched on October 14, 2025, serves as a direct channel for citizens to raise grievances, seek assistance, and communicate with the Government. Through timely intervention and prompt responses to the calls received, the platform has helped address and resolve a significant number of grievances arising from administrative hurdles.

Yet most of the industry still makes billion-euro decisions using spreadsheets, fragmented analyst reports, and instinct. As volatility accelerates across energy, commodities, and global trade, the cost of deciding late is rising. Today, Sybilion announced a $4.2 million seed round to build what it calls a decision layer, designed to give industrial companies the ability to act earlier and protect margins in volatile markets. The round was co-led by Venturefriends and Semapa Next. This funding announcement comes just months following Sybillion’s $600K pre-seed round, co-led by Vanagon Ventures and EWOR. Most manufacturers today have access to historical data feeds, analyst reports, and internal forecasts – but still struggle to answer the question: which risk factors actually matter for this company, for this product set, at this moment. Procurement, sales, and finance often work from different inputs and reach different conclusions. By the time alignment happens, markets have usually already moved and margins are diminished. This cost is detrimental; even a three to five percent timing error on a $200 million cost base can translate into millions in margin erosion. *The bottleneck is rarely access to information — it is the confidence to commit before the window closes* Sybilion approaches the problem from the outside in. The system identifies which signals materially affect a company’s exposure and links them directly to cost structures and product portfolios. Rather than delivering another isolated forecast number, Sybilion structures the decision moment itself, clarifying realistic options, trade-offs, and quantified risk boundaries so companies can commit earlier. Its platform continuously filters more than one trillion external risk factors, including weather anomalies, trade flows, freight rates, electricity futures, commodity prices, port congestion, industrial utilization, and macroeconomic indicators. > “Industrial companies do not lack data,” said **Dr. Bjol R. Frenkenberger, CEO and co-founder of Sybilion**. “They lack clarity about which signals truly matter and when to commit. Our goal is to give decision-makers the information advantage so they can turn external world dynamics into confident action before uncertainty becomes cost.” The company’s origin reflects its founder’s long-standing focus on complexity and uncertainty. At 12 years old, Bjol R. Frenkenberger began university. He later moved to Tokyo to join a health-tech startup that went public, and went on to pursue a PhD at the University of Oxford studying how businesses make decisions under uncertainty. During his research in April 2021, he observed how industrial companies struggled to translate abundant external world dynamics into timely, aligned action. Together with co-founders Nuno Barros, Jonas Falkner, Friedrich Weninger, he founded Sybilion to build a decision architecture that connects the external world directly to operational choices inside manufacturing. > “Industrial companies are being forced to make larger decisions on shorter timelines as volatility becomes the norm. We’re excited to support Bjol and the team as they become the decision layer for manufacturing,” said **Apostolos Apostolakis, Founding Partner at VentureFriends.** That conviction has translated into rapid traction. Over the past twelve months, Sybilion has grown annual recurring revenue to high six-figures, with zero churn and no sales team. K.D. Feddersen, an international distributor of engineering plastics, used Sybilion to align earlier on critical pricing and purchase decisions around global polymer trade flows and feedstock dynamics. At Jobachem, the platform enabled timely commitment with integrated energy futures and upstream commodity signals to frame procurement decisions with quantified risk boundaries. For Maral Overseas, forward trade flow analysis made it possible to take informed export allocation decisions by identifying regions where demand was strengthening. > **Grégoire Viat, Principal at Semapa Next commented:** “We were impressed by what Bjol and the team at Sybilion have built in a short period of time. Sybilion delivers clear, measurable value to industrial customers, addressing a fundamental need for decision confidence in an increasingly volatile supply chain environment. We are pleased to support the founders as a long-term partner as they continue to scale the business.” The broader context behind this traction is simple. Volatility is no longer episodic. Decision windows are tighter, and late alignment is increasingly expensive. Companies that interpret external signals early secure supply at better terms, protect margins, and avoid panic decisions such as emergency logistics or unnecessary overproduction. Those that wait absorb higher costs, weaker negotiating leverage, and avoidable waste. As markets move faster the ability to commit with confidence — earlier than competitors — becomes less of an advantage and more of a requirement*.* Looking ahead, Sybilion plans to deepen its mapping from external signals to product-level exposure and decision recommendations, broaden “Sybilion Connect” integrations so actions land directly inside client workflows, and expand from insight delivery into agentic planning support that helps teams determine the next best move under uncertainty. The long-term goal is to give industrial decision-makers an advantage that compounds, turning uncertainty from a threat into an edge. > “Bjol is one of the most fascinating founders I’ve been fortunate enough to meet. He is a piano prodigy, a builder, an academic, a leader” **said** **Daniel Dippold, CEO and Founder of EWOR**. “With Sybilion, he managed to build the largest dataset of time-series data I have seen to date and orchestrates it in a way that gives industrial teams a decision advantage no one else can offer. Similar to Bjol, Sybilion is one of a kind. Their technology is built like a musical masterpiece, they are growing fast, and Bjol has assembled a unique team that would have never come together were it not for his leadership.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Advanced Surgery at Manipal Hospital Dhakuria Treats Rare Brain Condition in 29-Year-Old Man](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/advanced-surgery-at-manipal-hospital-dhakuria-treats-rare-brain-condition-in-29-year-old-man/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 11th:** Doctors at Manipal Hospital Dhakuria, a unit of one of the largest healthcare providers of India – Manipal Hospitals Group, successfully treated a rare congenital brain condition known as **meningoencephalocele with CSF rhinorrhoea** in a 29–year–old patient, Atanu Pandit, from Narayanpur village in the Arambag region of West Bengal. The condition occurs when a portion of the brain and its protective covering **extends through a defect in the skull into the nasal cavity**, leading to leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the nose. The patient was treated under the care **of Dr. Kaushik Sil, Consultant – Neurosurgery at Manipal Hospital Dhakuria, with support from the ENT team led by Prof. Dr. Amitabha Roychoudhury, Consultant – ENT at Manipal Hospital Dhakuria. Atanu Pandit had been experiencing a **constant discharge of clear watery fluid from his nose for several years**, which was ignored at the beginning and thought to be a minor nasal issue. However, medical examination later confirmed that the fluid was **cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), a clear, protective fluid that surrounds and cushions the brain and spinal cord, protecting them from injury and maintaining proper pressure inside the skull,** is leaking from the brain. This condition is medically termed as **CSF rhinorrhoea**. When Atanu was around four years old, a similar growth had appeared inside his nose. At the time, local doctors examined it and believed it to be a **nasal polyp**, a condition commonly seen in such cases in rural settings. They attempted to **examine and treat the growth locally**. During this process, a fluid discharge was noticed once, but the swelling eventually subsided on its own. As no further symptoms were observed, the condition was not pursued medically, and he did not seek treatment again for many years. However, due to the underlying congenital defect, a portion of the brain tissue had gradually extended into the nasal cavity over time, eventually forming a soft, polyp-like mass along the inner surface of the nose. Further diagnosis revealed that the patient had a **large defect in the anterior skull base**, the partition that separates the brain from the facial cavity. MRI scans confirmed the diagnosis of **meningoencephalocele** which is a rare birth defect where brain tissue and its coverings herniate through a gap in the skull base. Such cases are extremely rare and occur in roughly **1 in 35,000 to 40,000 individuals**. If the situation is left untreated, the condition can lead to recurrent infections, multiple neurological complications, or life-threatening meningitis. Atanu Pandit was admitted to **Manipal Hospital, Dhakuria on 29th December.** After a detailed clinical evaluation and imaging tests including both MRI and CT scans, it confirmed the presence of a large skull base defect and herniation of brain tissue into the nasal cavity. Considering the complexity and seriousness of the condition, doctors planned a **combined neurosurgical and ENT procedure** to repair the defect from both the brain and nasal sides. During the surgery, the neurosurgical team led by **Dr. Kaushik Sil** carefully opened the skull and approached the defect from beneath the brain. Using advanced microsurgical procedures, they removed the herniated brain tissue and repaired the skull base using a **muscle graft taken from the patient’s own thigh**. Simultaneously, the ENT team led by **Prof. Dr. Amitabha Roychoudhury** approached the condition through the nasal cavity, removing the detached brain tissue and reconstructing the upper part of the nasal cavity and sealing the defect completely. The surgery was conducted successfully with the support of **anaesthesiologist Dr. Prakhar Gyanesh**, and the patient had an uneventful recovery. He was discharged **on the fifth day after surgery** and has since shown excellent recovery with **complete blockage of the fluid leak and no residual symptoms**. > Speaking about the case, **Dr. Kaushik Sil** said, “**Meningoencephalocele with CSF rhinorrhoea** is a rare and highly challenging situation that needs careful planning and multi-disciplined coordination. In this case, the patient had a large congenital issue in the skull base through which brain tissue had descended into the nasal cavity for over many years. Such conditions carry a risk of serious infection if goes untreated. Through a combined neurosurgical and ENT approach, we were able to remove the herniated brain tissue and reconstruct the skull base effectively. The patient’s smooth and quick recovery highlights the importance of early intervention and diagnosis, advanced surgical techniques, and coordinated specialist care.” > > **Prof. Dr. Amitabha Roychoudhury, Consultant – ENT, Manipal Hospital Dhakuria**, said, “In this case, a portion of the brain had descended into the nasal cavity through a congenital skull base defect, which is an extremely rare situation. From the ENT perspective, our role was to carefully remove the herniated tissue from the nasal cavity and repair the upper nasal passage to ensure that the leak was completely sealed. Such complex cases require accurate coordination between neurosurgery and ENT teams. With a combined approach and advanced infrastructure, we were able to safely treat the condition and restore normal function for the patient”. > > Expressing his gratitude, **Mr. Atanu Pandit** said, “For many years I was worried about the continuous fluid leaking from my nose but did not know the actual reason behind it. When I came to Manipal Hospital Dhakuria, the doctors explained my condition in detail and assured me that it is treatable. From admission to surgery and recovery, the entire team took very good care of me. I am now completely recovered and highly grateful to the doctors and staff for giving me a new life and confidence.” This case highlights the **advanced neurosurgical expertise, multidisciplinary collaboration, and modern infrastructure available at Manipal Hospital Dhakuria**, and the importance of early diagnosis.

At a high level, the issue involved a *privilege escalation* or “privilege jump.” Chrome extensions typically operate within defined permission boundaries. However, Unit 42 found that a malicious extension could manipulate how the Gemini web app was loaded inside Chrome’s AI side panel — a browser environment that operates with higher privileges than a standard web tab. Because the Gemini panel is treated as a trusted browser surface, influencing what loads inside it could allow an extension-controlled payload to execute in a more powerful context than the extension itself was granted. **How it worked: Privilege Escalation via AI Side Panels** The vulnerability allowed a malicious browser extension — even one with basic host permissions — to interfere with the Gemini Live side panel. Researchers found the extension could leverage Chrome’s request-modification capabilities to intercept and alter resources associated with the Gemini web application. This issue applied only when Gemini was accessed through the side panel, not a regular browser tab. When loaded in the side panel, Gemini runs within a more privileged browser process, tightly integrated with browser features and granted enhanced capabilities that ordinary web pages do not have. Due to how requests and content embedding were implemented, an extension permitted to interact with the Gemini domain could intercept and modify JavaScript resources before they were rendered in the panel. In effect, attacker-controlled code could be injected into content executing inside the panel’s higher-trust environment. The extension itself did not gain new permissions. Instead, it manipulated the content pipeline feeding a privileged component. Because that component already had elevated capabilities, the injected code effectively “rode along” into a more powerful execution context — creating the privilege jump. A successful exploit of CVE-2026-0628 could have enabled an attacker to: - **Access local files and directories** - **Capture screenshots** of browsing sessions - **Activate camera and microphone capabilities** without appropriate awareness - **Execute phishing attacks** within the trusted Gemini interface The attack required no additional user interaction beyond installing a malicious extension and opening the Gemini panel. **Remediation and Protection** Palo Alto Networks notified Google on Oct. 23, 2025. Google confirmed the findings and released a fix in early January 2026. > **Anupam Upadhyaya, SVP, Product Management, Prisma SASE, Palo Alto Networks, said, “**Today’s agentic browsers can act on your behalf — researching, reasoning and taking action without direct user input. While this can deliver meaningful productivity gains, in the absence of enterprise-grade controls these tools can take autonomous actions beyond IT oversight. By inheriting a user’s browser session and accessing screens, files, cameras and microphones, agentic browsers can expand the attack surface through prompt manipulation and weakened web isolation, creating security and accountability gaps enterprises haven’t faced before. The research highlights a broader architectural lesson: as AI becomes embedded into core browser components, strict isolation between extension-controlled content and privileged AI surfaces is essential to preserving the browser’s security model.

Established by a group of industry stakeholders, including Access Holdings, an alternative asset manager located in New York and Baltimore with deep roots in the Independent Sponsor model, ISN fills a long-standing gap as a centralized, real-time source of market intelligence for Independent Sponsors, capital providers, advisors, and service providers, serving some of the most active investors in American small and mid-sized businesses. The Independent Sponsor segment has undergone a remarkable transformation. What began as a niche ‘fundless sponsor’ model has evolved into a material and mainstream element of lower-to-middle market private equity and broader private markets. Independent Sponsors now represent approximately 27% of all closed deals on the Axial platform alone, the largest share of any single buyer category. According to data from Houlihan Lokey, the global direct equity market has grown at a compound annual growth rate of 52.8% since 2019. Citrin Cooperman’s 2025 Independent Sponsor Report found that 74% of Independent Sponsors expect competition in the sector to increase further in 2026. These are strong signals that the segment is entering its institutional prime. Despite this growth and economic significance, the Independent Sponsor ecosystem has remained largely data scarce, with a lack of consistent, real-time data for deal flow, capital formation, LP trends, or sector development. An annual calendar of U.S. industry conferences like McGuireWoods’ draws thousands of attendees and generates significant deal activity but provides only a point-in-time snapshot of a market that moves daily. ISN forms the connective tissue between media and data, purpose-built for the way Independent Sponsors source deals, capital, and advisors. **Mark Kollar, Partner at Prosek Partners**, commented on the launch of ISN: “The evolution of niche asset classes and market segments are increasingly creating the need for highly specialized data and media platforms to help ensure that the proper depth and breadth of coverage exists to move the Independent Sponsor sector forward. I am delighted to be a part of ISN’s advisory committee and launch and look forward to helping support its growth.” ISN was conceived by Access Holdings, and is Chaired by Sam Tidswell-Norrish, who joined Access in 2025 as a Partner following a decade as part of the founding team at private equity firm Motive Partners, the investment firm whose funds invested in With Intelligence until its recent sale to S&P Global, and where he also had an operational leadership role as EVP & CMO at portfolio company Dun & Bradstreet. Beyond private markets, Tidswell-Norrish has been involved in the formation of several niche new media platforms serving various segments, including entrepreneurs and Chiefs of Staff. “The Independent Sponsor market is increasingly sophisticated and operationally intensive, but information asymmetry is acute,” says **Sam Tidswell-Norrish, Chair of ISN, and Partner at Access Holdings**. “As this stakeholder group grows and contributes to significant deal volume, we want to bring news, data and institutional-grade partners to support the industry in its evolution, delivering the media and intelligence platform this ecosystem cannot operate without.” ISN operates as a standalone, self-funded business, editorially and financially independent from its strategic partners. The selective strategic partners underpinning the launch of ISN include Access Holdings (investment partner), BluWave (value creation partner) and Capitala Group (investment partner). ISN’s Advisory Board includes Ed Stubbings (Founder of the Global Emerging Manager Institute), Kevin McAllister (Founder & Managing Partner of Access Holdings), Mark Kollar (Partner at Prosek Partners), and Maxwell Greenstein (Founder & CEO of GP Stakes News). “Before we raised an institutional fund, we navigated the Independent Sponsor journey without a map,” says **Kevin McAllister, Founder & Managing Partner of Access Holdings**. “There was no consistent source of data, research, or insight, and no network you could easily connect with. We built Access despite that environment, and we saw firsthand how much harder that process was than it needed to be. ISN is the resource I wish we had then.” ISN’s strategic partners have been selected based on deep operating expertise across legal, advisory, capital provision, public relations, and communications, value creation, tax & audit, and data & analytics. ISN launches this week across its website, newsletter, and LinkedIn, with near-term plans to have coverage spanning deal and capital raising activity, original proprietary research, and ecosystem intelligence. The platform’s roadmap extends well beyond news aggregation: a real-time market intelligence layer and research marketplace are already in development, alongside a planned annual recognition program to celebrate Independent Sponsors’ contribution to North American business and economic growth.

AI is changing how access is created and managed. Today, non-human identities outnumber human identities 82:1, significantly expanding enterprise risk. Organisations across APJ need governance that can scale just as fast. By combining Saviynt’s Identity Governance & Administration (IGA), Privileged Access Management (PAM), and Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) solutions with Exclusive Networks’ extensive regional footprint, organisations will gain faster access to modern identity security with stronger in-market support and delivery. As the company enters its next phase of growth, the collaboration will strengthen Saviynt’s ability to scale across APJ through one of the region’s most established cybersecurity distribution platforms. > **Nitin Varma, Managing Director, India and SAARC at Saviynt, said,** “India’s rapid adoption of cloud, AI, and digital platforms is transforming how organisations operate, but it is also expanding the identity attack surface. Managing identity posture across human and machine identities has become critical for maintaining trust and resilience. Identity Security Posture Management is emerging as a key capability to help organisations gain visibility into identity risks and enforce governance at scale. Through our collaboration with Exclusive Networks, we are strengthening our ability to help Indian enterprises adopt AI-driven identity security, improve posture management, and securely scale their digital initiatives.” > > **Sandeep Anand, Partner Director, India and SAARC at Saviynt, added,** “India’s enterprise and public sector organisations are investing heavily in digital infrastructure, with identity now becoming central to securing cloud platforms, applications, and AI-driven workflows. For partners, the opportunity is significant, but so is the complexity of delivering identity programs at scale. Our collaboration with Exclusive Networks strengthens the ecosystem by bringing together technical enablement, partner readiness, and strong in-market execution. This enables partners to deliver identity governance and privileged access capabilities more efficiently while helping customers modernise their security posture.” **What This Means for Partners and Customers in APJ** - **Expanded market access:** Regional systems integrators, vertical specialists, government-focused partners, and mid-market resellers will gain streamlined access to Saviynt’s identity platform. - **Stronger technical readiness:** Saviynt University will support partners through certification programs, technical training, and role-based learning paths, enabling consistent and high-quality implementation of identity governance programs. - **End-to-end operational support:** Exclusive Networks will provide onboarding, logistics, financial services, technical labs, and demand-generation capabilities, helping partners reduce friction and accelerate deployment cycles. - **Faster customer impact:** Combined ecosystem strength enables organisations to modernise identity governance while maintaining operational continuity. > **Veeranna Ganigere, Regional General Manager for India and SAARC at Exclusive Networks, added,** “Across India and the SAARC region, rapid digital expansion and accelerating AI adoption are placing identity security at the centre of enterprise risk management. As organisations operate in increasingly complex, multi-cloud environments, strong governance over access and entitlements is essential. Saviynt enhances our ability to support partners with a structured, enterprise-ready identity approach. We are confident in leveraging our channel ecosystem across India and SAARC to accelerate Saviynt’s growth and advance identity security as a strategic priority throughout the region.”\\ [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [State Bank of India State Bank of India and MUFG Sign Strategic Partnership to Strengthen India–Japan Financial Collaboration](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/state-bank-of-india-state-bank-of-india-and-mufg-sign-strategic-partnership-to-strengthen-india-japan-financial-collaboration/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 11**: State Bank of India (SBI), India’s largest commercial bank, and MUFG Bank, Ltd., (MUFG) Japan’s premier global financial institution, today announced the signing of a Strategic Partnership Agreement to advance bilateral financial collaboration and strengthen the India–Japan economic corridor. The agreement aims to enhance mutual collaboration by further leveraging the complementary strengths of both institutions to facilitate cross-border capital flows, create new synergistic financing opportunities and support sustainable economic growth across two of Asia’s largest economies. ![State Bank of India State Bank of India and MUFG Sign Strategic Partnership to Strengthen India–Japan Financial Collaboration](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/8p3zvfnl88.JPG) The alliance combines SBI’s unparalleled domestic reach and market leadership in India with MUFG’s extensive global network and cross-border structuring expertise, to support Japanese corporates expanding in India as well as Indian enterprises pursuing international growth, including entry into Japan and other global markets. **Building on a Strong Foundation** The partnership builds on a strong and expanding track record of collaboration between MUFG and SBI. Recently, SBI launched a USD 500 million + Greenshoe syndicated Gender loan facility to advance women’s economic empowerment, which is the largest gender‑themed loan by a financial institution globally and is arranged by MUFG. This builds on MUFG’s role in 2023 as Lead Social Loan Coordinator and Arranger for SBI’s inaugural USD 1 billion social loan in 2023, which is the largest social loan by a Bank in APAC. MUFG has also engaged with SBI CHAKRA Centre of Excellence (CoE) under its Project Finance & Structuring function, supporting the development of financing frameworks for India’s priority sunrise sectors aligned with the Viksit Bharat 2047 vision. Through this agreement, the MUFG–SBI alliance is underpinned by a formalized and structured framework to further scale cooperation across priority industries and cross‑border opportunities. **Key Areas of Collaboration** With the partnership, SBI and MUFG will explore collaboration in structuring and financing projects with a specific focus on sectors such as M&A, Aviation and Real Estate finance to support Indian and Global clients. The banks will also cooperate on M&A advisory, trade finance and retail banking solutions, facilitating Japanese corporate linked potential inbound and outbound transactions by leveraging SBI’s deep expertise in the Indian market and MUFG’s extensive global network. Both banks will also help facilitate the introduction of Indian mid-corporates and micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) to Japanese corporate clients, identifying financing opportunities that deepen transaction-level collaboration. **A Strategic Partnership** The partnership aligns with the broader India-Japan “Special Strategic and Global Partnership” and supports the India-Japan Joint Vision for the Next Decade, which outlines a shared roadmap to deepen economic integration and long term investment between the two countries. Rising Japanese investment into India across infrastructure, manufacturing and emerging sectors, alongside the growing global ambitions of Indian corporates, underscores the need for coordinated financial platforms capable of supporting long-term capital formation. **Takuya Senoo, Regional Executive for India & Sri Lanka, MUFG Bank, Ltd.,** said: > “India represents one of the most compelling growth markets globally, and the India–Japan corridor continues to deepen. We are witnessing strong momentum from Japanese companies expanding their presence in India, alongside increasing global ambition from Indian enterprises. Through our partnership with SBI, MUFG aims to provide integrated cross-border solutions that support both inbound investment into India and outbound expansion by Indian corporates. This collaboration reflects our long-term commitment to strengthening economic ties between Japan and India.” **Kishore Kumar Poludasu, Deputy Managing Director, International Banking Group, State Bank of India**, said: > “This strategic partnership brings together two institutions of scale and systemic importance in our respective markets. As trade and investment flows between India and Japan continue to expand, our collaboration with MUFG enhances our ability to provide comprehensive financing and advisory solutions to clients operating across both jurisdictions. We view this as a natural progression of our existing working relationship and a platform for deeper engagement across priority sectors.” This partnership reflects the shared commitment of both institutions to the Indian economic growth story towards the culmination of the vision of Viksit Bharat 2047. By synergizing SBI’s unparalleled domestic reach as the national banking champion along with MUFG’s prominent international footprint, the partnership will serve as a vital bridge for investment flows and industrial collaboration between two of the largest global economies.

Once considered a relatively underexplored destination, the country is now experiencing a remarkable surge in international visitors. From stunning natural landscapes and vibrant cities to competitive travel costs and strong government support, Vietnam is positioning itself as one of the **fastest-growing travel destinations in the world**. As global tourism rebounds and travelers seek new experiences beyond traditional hotspots, Vietnam is gaining attention from airlines, hotel chains, and investors who see enormous potential in the country’s expanding tourism sector. ### A Rapidly Expanding Tourism Market Vietnam’s tourism growth has been driven by a combination of **strategic government initiatives, infrastructure development, and aggressive international marketing**. Authorities have introduced visa reforms, including expanded e-visa policies and longer visa durations, making it easier for travelers from multiple countries to visit. The **Vietnam National Administration of Tourism** has also intensified global promotion campaigns to position Vietnam as a premier destination for culture, nature, and luxury travel. The results have been significant. International tourist arrivals have grown steadily, and the tourism sector has become a key contributor to the country’s economy, supporting millions of jobs across hospitality, transportation, and retail industries. ### Iconic Destinations Driving Global Interest Vietnam’s diverse attractions are a major factor behind its growing popularity. The country offers everything from bustling urban centers to breathtaking natural wonders. One of the most famous destinations is **Ha Long Bay**, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its dramatic limestone islands rising from emerald waters. Cruise tourism in this region has expanded significantly, attracting travelers seeking scenic and luxury experiences. Meanwhile, major cities like **Hanoi** and **Ho Chi Minh City** continue to draw international visitors with their rich cultural heritage, historic architecture, and dynamic food scenes. Coastal cities such as **Da Nang** are also gaining global attention thanks to their pristine beaches, luxury resorts, and iconic attractions like the **Golden Bridge**, a dramatic pedestrian bridge held up by giant stone hands. ### Strong Growth in Luxury Hospitality Vietnam’s tourism boom has encouraged major international hotel brands and resort developers to invest heavily in the country’s hospitality sector. Luxury resorts, boutique hotels, and eco-tourism retreats are emerging across coastal regions and island destinations. The rapid development of hospitality infrastructure is particularly visible in beach destinations such as Phu Quoc and Da Nang, where new resorts are attracting high-spending international travelers. For global hospitality brands, Vietnam offers a compelling mix of **strong tourism demand, competitive development costs, and government support for tourism investment**. ### Affordable Luxury Attracting Global Travelers Another factor driving Vietnam’s tourism surge is its reputation as an **affordable luxury destination**. Compared with other popular Asian travel hubs, Vietnam offers high-quality travel experiences at relatively lower costs. Visitors can enjoy luxury hotels, world-class dining, and guided tours at prices that are often significantly lower than in destinations such as Thailand, Singapore, or Japan. This combination of affordability and high-quality experiences has made Vietnam particularly attractive to younger travelers, digital nomads, and long-stay visitors. ### Rising Popularity Among Indian Travelers Vietnam is also becoming increasingly popular among travelers from **India**. Improved air connectivity and simplified visa policies have encouraged more Indian tourists to explore the destination. Direct flights connecting Indian cities with Vietnamese destinations have expanded significantly in recent years, making travel faster and more convenient. Social media exposure and travel influencers have further boosted interest in Vietnam among younger travelers. As outbound travel from India continues to grow, Vietnam is well positioned to capture a larger share of this expanding tourism market. ### Infrastructure and Connectivity Improvements Vietnam’s government has also invested heavily in transportation infrastructure to support tourism growth. Major airports are being expanded, while new highways and transport networks are improving accessibility between key tourist destinations. Airlines are increasing international routes to Vietnam, strengthening connectivity with major markets in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. These improvements are helping the country compete more effectively with established tourism destinations in the region. ### The Future of Vietnam’s Tourism Industry With its natural beauty, cultural heritage, and rapidly improving infrastructure, Vietnam’s tourism industry is poised for sustained growth. Analysts believe the country could become one of the **top travel destinations in Southeast Asia** within the next decade. For global travelers seeking unique experiences, Vietnam offers a compelling alternative to traditional tourist hubs. At the same time, the country’s tourism expansion is creating new opportunities for airlines, hospitality companies, and travel investors. As international travel continues to evolve, Vietnam’s strategic focus on tourism development is likely to keep the country firmly on the global travel map. ### Conclusion Vietnam’s remarkable tourism surge reflects a broader shift in global travel trends, where emerging destinations are gaining popularity alongside established hotspots. With strong government support, growing infrastructure, and world-class attractions, the country is transforming into one of Asia’s most dynamic tourism markets. For travelers and industry stakeholders alike, **Vietnam is no longer just an emerging destination—it is fast becoming one of the world’s most exciting travel hotspots.** [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** travel --- ### [Empowering Women Through Banking: Bank of India Highlights Dedicated Financial Solutions](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/empowering-women-through-banking-bank-of-india-highlights-dedicated-financial-solutions/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai, Mar 11:** On the occasion of International Women’s Day, Bank of India reaffirmed its commitment to supporting women’s financial empowerment by highlighting a range of dedicated banking products and services designed to promote financial independence, security and holistic well-being for its women employees & customers across India.

They emphasized that lifestyle disorders such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity are among the leading causes of kidney-related complications today. The specialists highlighted that kidney diseases often develop silently without noticeable symptoms in the early stages, making regular health check-ups and screening extremely important. They also stressed the need for adopting a healthy lifestyle, maintaining proper hydration, and controlling risk factors to prevent kidney damage and reduce the growing burden of chronic kidney disease in the community. > **Dr. B. S. Solanki, Director & Head – Nephrology, Yatharth Super Speciality Hospital, Model Town New Delhi said**, “World Kidney Day is of great importance in raising awareness among people about their kidneys, as a number of patients are unaware that diseases like diabetes and high blood pressure can affect their kidneys over a period of time. Today, diabetes and high blood pressure are causing almost 60-70 percent of cases of chronic renal disease. This day is a reminder for people to understand the importance of regular health check-ups for their kidneys and to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Simple practices like keeping blood sugar and blood pressure under control, exercising regularly, reducing salt consumption, drinking adequate water, and abstaining from smoking are effective in maintaining healthy kidneys. As there are no prominent symptoms of a patient suffering from a renal condition in the initial stages, regular screening of patients by conducting simple investigations like blood creatinine levels, urinalysis, and blood pressure is of extreme importance to prevent renal failure and dialysis.” > > **Dr. Prasad Dandekar, Consultant – Nephrology and Kidney Transplant, Yatharth Super Specialty Hospital Omega 1 Greater Noida said,** “World Kidney Day, observed on March 12, plays a crucial role in raising awareness about kidney health, as many people are still unaware of the risks and early signs of kidney disease. Conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and genetic disorders are among the most common causes of kidney problems today. Regular health check-ups, especially after the age of 30, are essential for early detection through basic tests like blood sugar, blood pressure, kidney function tests, and urine examination. Early symptoms such as swelling in the face or feet, blood in urine, fatigue, or persistent itching should not be ignored. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is equally important—this includes staying well hydrated, reducing salt intake, controlling blood sugar and blood pressure, and avoiding unnecessary use of painkillers. Early diagnosis through routine screening can help prevent serious complications and protect long-term kidney function.” > > **Dr. Upendra Singh, Sr Consultant & Head – Nephrology, Yatharth Super Speciality Hospital, Sector- 1, Noida Extension said,** “Over the past few years, we have observed a steady rise in kidney-related OPD visits, largely driven by the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. An emerging concern is the growing number of young patients, particularly in the 30–45 age group, being diagnosed with early kidney disorders. Sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy dietary habits, stress, dehydration, and the unregulated use of painkillers or gym supplements are key contributing factors. Among the most commonly seen conditions are chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, acute kidney injury, and urinary infections, with CKD and kidney stones being the most frequent. Since early-stage kidney disease often shows no symptoms, many patients reach hospitals at advanced stages requiring dialysis. Regular screening, especially for diabetics and hypertensive individuals, along with healthier lifestyle choices, can significantly help in preventing kidney damage and slowing disease progression.” > > **Dr. Rohan, Sr. Consultant – Nephrology, Yatharth Hospital, Noida 110 Unit said,** “On the occasion of World Kidney Day, it is important to remember that our kidneys quietly perform life-saving work every day. These two small organs filter waste, remove excess fluid, regulate blood pressure, maintain electrolyte balance, and support healthy hemoglobin levels. This day plays a crucial role in spreading awareness about kidney health, risk factors, and the importance of early screening. Today, diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, unhealthy lifestyle habits and excessive use of painkillers are among the most common causes of kidney disease. Smoking, high salt intake, and lack of physical activity increase the risk of kidney disease. By controlling blood sugar and blood pressure, maintaining a balanced diet and good hydration, staying physically active and avoiding smoking, people can significantly reduce their chances of developing kidney disease.” > > **Dr. Rohan added,** “Kidney disease often develops silently and may not show clear symptoms in the early stages. Warning signs such as swelling in the feet or face, frequent urination at night, persistent fatigue, loss of appetite, or foamy urine point towards kidney disease and should never be ignored. Regular kidney screening, especially for people with high risk, is essential. Simple tests—blood pressure measurement, urine examination, and blood creatinine levels—can help identify kidney problems at an early stage and prevent progression. On this World Kidney Day, let us spread awareness and commit to “Kidney Health for All.” Healthy kidneys mean a healthier life.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [TiE Delhi-NCR to Host Capital Connect 2026, Spotlighting India’s Booming Startup Investment Landscape](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/tie-delhi-ncr-to-host-capital-connect-2026-spotlighting-indias-booming-startup-investment-landscape/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 11**: As global investors increasingly turn their attention to India’s growth story, now ranked among the top three global tech-startup funding hubs, Indian tech startups raised USD10.5 billion in 2025.

Vrindavan Vibes Jamming (kirtan utsav) brings together youth, families, and devotees in collective kirtans within a sacred temple setting, transforming spirituality into a participative, community-driven experience. Vrindavan Vibes Jamming positions Mangaldeep as a long-term enabler of community-led devotion. Vrindavan, the land of Lord Krishna, continues to remain a vibrant centre for devotional singing, temple gatherings, and spiritual experiences that bring together devotees from across the country. Through this collaboration, Mangaldeep will create an immersive, fragrance-led devotional environment, with ambient fragrance pillars, a curated Khusbhoo Path experience, a selfie booth for shared memories, and specially designed souvenirs for devotees. Commenting on this association, **Mr Rohit Dogra**, **Divisional CEO of Matches and Agarbatti Division** said, > “At Mangaldeep, devotion has always been at the heart of everything we do. Today, we are witnessing a beautiful shift in how spirituality is expressed, especially among young India where bhajans and kirtans are becoming vibrant, collective experiences of faith and belonging. Our partnership with ISKCON Vrindavan for Vrindavan Vibes is a reflection of this evolution. We are proud to enhance these sacred gatherings through fragrance-led experiences that deepen ambience, emotion, and connection. For us, it is about staying rooted in tradition while embracing the many ways in which devotion continues to inspire and unite communities.” Bhajan and kirtan gatherings are increasingly becoming spaces for emotional connection, cultural identity, and spiritual well-being, particularly among younger audiences seeking grounding in an otherwise fast-paced world. The gathering created an atmosphere of collective devotion, where participants described feeling a deep sense of calm, joy, and spiritual bliss as the chants and music brought people together in a shared moment of faith and reflection. By aligning with Vrindavan Vibes, Mangaldeep reinforces its role not just as a product brand, but as an enabler of shared spiritual experiences, from homes to temples, and now to community-led devotional platforms.

Thales SkyDefender provides full protection against all types of air threats, from a few kilometres to several thousands of kilometres: - **Short-range: for protection of forces, vital assets and sensitive sites:** ForceShield creates a real protection bubble against lower layer and surface threats at very short- and short-range, such as drones. - **Medium-range: for protection at theatre-level defence**: SAMP-T NG by eurosam1 with up to 150 km engagement range, including Thales’ powerful Ground Fire radar with **350 km** range and 360°/90° coverage against medium-range defence. - **Long-range: for protection against long-range threats with early-warning capabilities:** a unique capacity that empowers armed forces with superior tracking, identifying hard-to-find targets including fighter jets and ballistic missiles bolstering Space Domain Awareness. Thales SMART-L MM and UHF radars, which can detect potential threats at distances of up to **5,000 km**, are key differentiators. Thales Alenia Space offers an early warning solution from geostationary orbit thanks to satellites equipped with infrared sensors that can detect a missile threat, and give the accurate location of the launch, even before it enters the areas covered by ground-based radars. Combined with the ground-based UHF advanced long-range radars, it provides a unique capability of permanent surveillance, early detection and trajectory follow-up of long-range threats. All elements are managed through Thales’ SkyView command and control (C2) system, with SkyView Alliance ensuring seamless interoperability with NATO and allied multi-domain platforms. Built on an open, modular architecture, SkyDefender integrates easily with existing defences and can be further developed as threats evolve. The development and deployment of the system is open to partnerships with other industrial players. SkyDefender is fully compatible with a wide variety of sensors and weapon systems, including those from different manufacturers and existing legacy platforms. *“Thales is proud to contribute to the sovereignty of our nations with SkyDefender, the global air and missile defence dome based on our latest advanced technologies, from counter-drone protection to early warning capacities. With SkyDefender Thales provides a combat-proven system, easy-to-integrate and available today, confirming our position as a long-term trusted partner for the armed forces.”* **Hervé Dammann, Executive Vice-President, Land and Air Systems, Thales.** [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [Mahindra Strengthens its presence in Karnataka with a new State-of-the-art Truck and Bus dealership in Hubli](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/mahindra-strengthens-its-presence-in-karnataka-with-a-new-state-of-the-art-truck-and-bus-dealership-in-hubli/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Karnataka, Mar 11:** After achieving robust volume growth over the past 4 years, Mahindra’s Truck and Bus Business today inaugurated its state-of-the-art 3S dealership in Hubli, Karnataka with 7 service bays, the facility can service more than 7 vehicles per day while also providing driver lodging, 24-hour breakdown assistance and AdBlue availability. ![Mahindra Strengthens its presence in Karnataka with a new State-of-the-art Truck and Bus dealership in Hubli](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/we67863a9i.jpg) Speaking on the occasion, **Mr. Vinod Sahay, President Trucks, Buses & Construction Equipment, Member of Group Executive Board**, said, > “Delighted to inaugurate our new state-of-the-art dealership in Hubli.

The white paper was formally released by Dr Sanjeev Vidyarthi, Provost, Anant National University and Keshav Chatterjee, Founder, Prabhat Education Foundation, in the presence of the Centre Heads and team members of the Centre for Public Policy Research and Design (CPRD) and the Prabhat Education Foundation. ![Anant Reaffirms Commitment to Inclusive Education, Releases White Paper on Strengthening Urban Education Ecosystems.](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/sw4m99i8nt.jpg) The white paper examines the critical gap between policy intent and the lived realities of children with special needs, particularly within high-vulnerability urban education contexts. While India has made important policy commitments toward inclusive education, the report highlights the systemic and institutional challenges that often prevent these commitments from translating into meaningful outcomes on the ground. Moving beyond a compliance-driven understanding of inclusion, the paper advocates for systems-level reform that addresses governance structures, institutional design and service delivery mechanisms. It introduces a comprehensive systems framework, including the concept of an ‘Inclusion Funnel’, to analyse how children navigate and are often filtered out of education systems due to gaps in coordination, capacity and accountability. The framework places particular emphasis on strengthening urban education ecosystems, where demographic pressures, resource constraints and fragmented service networks can disproportionately affect children with special needs. By examining policy translation at multiple levels, from intent and design to implementation and lived experience, the white paper offers actionable insights for policymakers, educators, administrators and civil society organisations. The initiative reflects the growing research engagement of the Centre for Public Policy Research and Design (CPRD) at Anant National University, which approaches public challenges through a design-thinking lens. By positioning every policy problem as a design problem, CPRD seeks to develop more empathetic, inclusive and context-sensitive frameworks that bridge the gap between legislation and lived reality. The collaboration with the Prabhat Education Foundation further reinforces Anant’s commitment to meaningful academic–practice partnerships. By bringing together research expertise and field-level insights, the white paper embodies an approach that is both analytically rigorous and grounded in on-the-ground realities. With this release, Anant reaffirms its commitment to inclusive, equitable and systems-driven education reform. Through research, dialogue and cross-sector collaboration, the University continues to shape policies and frameworks that translate intent into lived inclusion, strengthening urban education systems for the future.

By selling products directly to customers without relying on traditional intermediaries such as distributors or multi-brand retailers, brands are gaining unprecedented control over their sales, branding, and customer relationships. This shift allows businesses to present their products exactly as intended, communicate their story directly, and build stronger, more loyal connections with their audience. One of the key advantages of the D2C model is the ability to gather and leverage customer data. By interacting directly with end users, companies gain deep insights into purchasing behaviors, preferences, and feedback. This data-driven approach enables brands to refine their product offerings, create personalized marketing campaigns, and respond rapidly to changing consumer trends. Companies that embrace these insights can anticipate customer needs, foster loyalty, and remain competitive in fast-moving markets. Digital technology has accelerated the growth of D2C channels, making it easier than ever for brands to reach global audiences. E-commerce platforms, mobile apps, social media, and advanced logistics networks allow companies to manage the entire customer experience seamlessly—from browsing to purchase to delivery. Social media, in particular, has become a critical tool for storytelling, enabling brands to engage audiences directly, build communities, and generate organic word-of-mouth growth. Physical retail is evolving alongside digital platforms to complement the D2C model. Many companies now operate flagship stores, showrooms, or experience centers where customers can interact with products, attend events, and experience the brand in person. These hybrid strategies allow brands to offer immersive experiences that strengthen customer loyalty, while simultaneously integrating the convenience of online shopping into a cohesive brand ecosystem. Financially, D2C channels provide brands with higher profit margins and greater control over pricing. Without intermediaries taking a cut, companies can retain more revenue to reinvest in innovation, marketing, and customer experience. Startups and smaller businesses benefit immensely, as they can enter the market with lower upfront costs, test new products, and scale operations efficiently. The result is a more competitive marketplace where innovation, quality, and customer engagement take center stage. The D2C trend is also reshaping entire market sectors. As more brands adopt direct sales strategies, competition increases, driving innovation, higher quality standards, and better customer service. Supporting industries—including logistics, digital marketing, e-commerce platforms, and payment solutions—are experiencing significant growth, creating a ripple effect that contributes to economic expansion. The rise of D2C channels is stimulating entrepreneurship, creating jobs, and supporting technological advancement across multiple sectors. Emerging markets are becoming critical arenas for D2C expansion. With growing internet penetration, increasing smartphone adoption, and a rising middle class, these regions offer untapped potential for brands seeking to expand their reach. Companies leveraging digital tools to enter these markets can access new customer bases, tailor offerings to local preferences, and establish a competitive edge. In doing so, D2C brands not only grow their businesses but also contribute to local economic development and employment generation. Sustainability and social responsibility are increasingly intertwined with the D2C model. Many brands are integrating eco-friendly packaging, ethical supply chains, and responsible production practices into their direct sales strategies. By communicating these initiatives directly to consumers, companies strengthen their brand reputation, align with customer values, and promote long-term business sustainability. This approach reflects a broader trend of businesses balancing profitability with positive societal impact. Looking ahead, D2C channels are expected to continue transforming commerce in 2026 and beyond. Advancements in artificial intelligence, data analytics, and personalized marketing will further enhance how brands connect with consumers. Companies that embrace these tools will be able to anticipate trends, optimize operations, and deliver highly tailored experiences. The D2C model represents a future where businesses can grow faster, innovate smarter, and engage consumers more meaningfully than ever before. Ultimately, Direct-to-Consumer is more than a sales strategy—it is a paradigm shift. By shortening the supply chain, empowering brands, and creating closer relationships with customers, D2C is driving business innovation, economic growth, and market transformation. As more companies adopt this model, the landscape of retail and commerce will become more dynamic, competitive, and customer-focused, making D2C one of the defining trends of modern business in 2026.

Building on years of progress in printed electronics, the team has shown how to create durable, low-power electronic switches, called transistors, by combining custom inks and a specialized printing process. These switches, which control the flow of electrical current to turn circuits on and off, use very little power, are built to last and show new behaviors not seen in earlier printed devices. This research could help create flexible sensors, smart windows and other new technologies that need reliable, energy-saving electronics. The scientists used a method called aerosol jet printing, which works like an inkjet printer. But instead of regular ink, it uses specially formulated ink made from nanoparticles. The printer turns the ink into a fine mist and sprays it onto a surface, building up layers to form electronic parts. A key ingredient in these printed devices is vanadium dioxide. This material is special because it can act like a wire, letting electricity flow, or like an insulator, blocking electricity. This switching ability is important for making electronic circuits and memory devices, which store and process information. To control the flow of electricity in the transistors, the team used a process called redox gating. In simple terms, this means they use a chemical reaction to add or remove electrons from the vanadium dioxide. By applying a small voltage — less than what is used in a typical battery — they can turn the transistor on or off. This method is less harsh than other techniques, which could damage the material and make devices wear out quickly. “We chose printing methods for two main reasons,” said Argonne Materials Scientist Yuepeng Zhang. “First, printing enables rapid prototyping and iterative design, which helps us optimize materials and device structures quickly. Second, printed electronics have benefits for device functionality, especially since our devices show a well-modulated current response to voltage, making them suitable for printed logic devices and niche applications.” Wei Chen, a chemist from Argonne and the University of Chicago, emphasized the durability of the new devices. “Redox gating is robust and does not damage the materials, so we can run thousands of cycles without issues,” he said. “In previous methods, devices could only run a few times — sometimes just 10 cycles — before failing. Our devices can run thousands of cycles with no problem.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ### [CM Prem Singh Tamang Attends Foundation-Laying Ceremony of Ugyen Wodsel Pemacholing Monastery at Upper Martam](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/cm-prem-singh-tamang-attends-foundation-laying-ceremony-of-ugyen-wodsel-pemacholing-monastery-at-upper-martam/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar 11:** CM Prem Singh Tamang-Golay attended a two-day sacred religious programme at Upper Martam and participated in the foundation-laying ceremony of the Ugyen Wodsel Pemacholing Monastery, highlighting the importance of preserving spiritual traditions and cultural heritage. ![CM Prem Singh Tamang Attends Foundation-Laying Ceremony of Ugyen Wodsel Pemacholing Monastery at Upper Martam](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/t2kzpcp199.jpeg) Sharing the update through his official Facebook page, the Chief Minister expressed that he felt honoured and blessed to be part of the auspicious occasion.

This year’s global theme, “Kidney Health for All: Caring for People, Protecting the Planet,” highlights the need for preventive care and equal access to treatment for kidney patients.Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is emerging as a major public health concern in India. Studies suggest that over 138 million people in the country may be affected by some form of kidney disease, making it one of the fastest-growing non-communicable diseases. The rising cases of diabetes, hypertension, obesity and sedentary lifestyles have significantly increased the risk of kidney damage among Indians. India had the second-highest number of people with chronic kidney disease in 2023 at 138 million, following China at 152 million, according to a global study published in The Lancet journal. Kidneys play a crucial role in filtering toxins, balancing body fluids, regulating blood pressure and supporting red blood cell production. However, kidney disease is often called a “silent disease” because a person can lose up to 50% of kidney function without noticeable symptoms. Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Puneet Bhuwania, Consultant Nephrologist & Transplant Physician at Wockhardt Hospitals Mira Road, said, “Kidney disease often progresses silently and many patients are diagnosed only when the condition has advanced. Regular screening, especially for people with diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity or a family history of kidney disease, can help detect problems early and prevent serious complications.” Dr. Puneet Bhuwania further emphasised that prevention remains the most effective way to protect kidney health. Doctors at Wockhardt Hospitals Mira Road recommend maintaining regular physical activity, monitoring blood sugar and blood pressure levels, reducing salt intake, drinking adequate water, avoiding smoking and limiting the long-term use of over-the-counter painkillers. > Commenting on increasing kidney problems among young kids **Dr. Amit Jain, Nephrologist from Apex Group of Hospitals, Mumbai says,** “On World Kidney Day, it is worrying to see kidney problems appearing at a younger age. Many youngsters are unknowingly damaging their kidneys through unhealthy lifestyles—excess junk food, high salt intake, sugary drinks, poor hydration, lack of exercise, and misuse of painkillers or supplements. Kidneys silently suffer for years before symptoms appear. Prevention must start early. Young people should prioritize balanced nutrition, regular physical activity, adequate water intake, and routine health check-ups. Protecting kidney health today is essential to avoid serious complications like chronic kidney disease and dialysis later in life.” Health experts highlight that early diagnosis and timely lifestyle changes can significantly slow the progression of kidney disease and reduce the need for dialysis or transplant. On this World Kidney Day, citizens are encouraged to take proactive steps by getting their kidney function tested and adopting healthier habits to save.

Ravi, Consultant Nephrologist & Transplant Physician KIMS Hospitals, Secunderabad** This year’s World Kidney Day theme is “Kidney Health for All – Caring for People, Protecting the Planet. Kidney diseases are becoming increasingly common, yet many people are unaware they have a problem because kidney disease often develops silently. Chronic Kidney Disease affects nearly 10–15% of adults worldwide. The most common risk factors include diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, smoking, family history of kidney disease, and long-term use of certain painkillers or other nephrotoxic medicines. The good news is that kidney disease can often be detected early. Simple tests such as blood creatinine to assess kidney function, urine tests for protein, and regular blood pressure checks can help identify kidney disease in its early stages. People with diabetes and hypertension should undergo regular screening, as they are at higher risk. If kidney disease progresses to End‑Stage Kidney Disease, patients may require dialysis or kidney transplantation. However, there is a significant shortage of kidney donors, making prevention and early detection even more important. On this World Kidney Day, I urge everyone to take care of their kidneys through regular health check-ups, healthy lifestyle choices, and avoiding unnecessary medications. Early detection can protect kidney health and improve quality of life.

Modernized mining codes and updated regulatory frameworks are giving investors clearer rules, more certainty and access to a wider range of critical minerals. By fostering transparency and strategic alignment, these reforms are not only attracting capital but also driving the development of downstream industries and positioning Africa as a key supplier for the global energy transition. **New Laws, New Deals** Liberia is preparing to introduce a new Mining Code within the next three months, creating a National Mining Company to increase state participation in major projects and strengthen its negotiating position. Nearly 80% of the country remains geologically unexplored, offering significant opportunities across minerals and even oil and gas. > *“Liberia’s geology is exceptionally rich,” said **Minister of Mines and Energy, Matenokay Tingban,** in an interview with Energy Capital & Power in January. “We are seeking geomapping and exploration partners. Access to geoscientific data will allow us to negotiate stronger investment deals and develop downstream infrastructure.”* Iron ore currently dominates the country’s output – targeting 30 million tons per year by 2026 – but the new framework is expected to encourage diversification into other critical resources while facilitating partnerships for exploration and downstream processing. Meanwhile, Namibia is finalizing a new Minerals Bill to replace its 2002 legislation, reflecting the country’s commitment to local beneficiation, inclusive participation and investment competitiveness. According to Mining Commissioner at the Ministry of Industry and Mines, Isabella Chirchir, the reforms aim “to attract capital to diversify production beyond diamonds and uranium toward strategic metals such as lithium and rare earths.” In Central Africa, the Republic of Congo approved a draft mining code in November 2025 introducing competitive bidding, formal permitting for small-scale miners and support for in-country processing. These measures aim to increase transparency, attract investors and strengthen the domestic value chain for both traditional and strategic minerals. **Reforms Fuel Opportunity** Across the continent, countries are updating existing codes to boost investment and production. Ivory Coast is revising its mining code to support a wider range of minerals, including chromium, coltan, lithium, copper, cobalt and iron ore, complementing its existing base of 19 operating mines. Somalia is also overhauling its mining regulations to unlock frontier resources such as uranium, lithium, cobalt, gold and diamonds, reflecting growing investor interest in previously underexplored markets. The results of such reforms are already visible. Mali, which introduced a new Mining Code in 2023, continues as Africa’s second-largest gold producer while advancing lithium projects and a new gold refinery with international partners Barrick and B2Gold. Burkina Faso, which adopted a revised code in 2024, increased gold production from roughly 57–60 tons to 94 tons in 2025, reinforcing investor confidence and its position as Africa’s fourth-largest gold producer. Against this backdrop, African Mining Week 2026 (October 14–16, Cape Town) will bring together policymakers, industry leaders and global investors to examine these regulatory transformations and the opportunities they unlock. From exploration to downstream processing, the event highlights how modernized frameworks are turning legal certainty into tangible investment potential, connecting capital with projects poised to drive Africa’s mining sector growth.

Founders hire quickly, ship fast, solve problems in real time, and keep the culture “organic.” It works. Until it doesn’t. Somewhere between 15 and 30 employees, many startups hit an invisible wall. Execution slows down. Good people get confused. Roles overlap. Managers are promoted too early. Feedback becomes emotional. Hiring turns into a gamble. And the founder becomes the default problem solver again. That moment is not a strategy problem. It is a people systems problem. > **Shailesh Kantak**, a leadership and people systems coach and the Founder of the MSME India Network (MINT), has spent years working closely with businesses at this exact stage. *“Most founders don’t fail because they lack ambition,” he says. “They get stuck because the business is still running on personal control instead of repeatable people systems.”* **The real startup bottleneck is not funding, it is team design** Startups are built on intensity. But intensity cannot replace clarity forever. When a team grows, informal coordination stops working. What the business needs next is simple structure, with human warmth intact. Strong people systems do not mean corporate HR. They mean clear roles, clear expectations, clear rhythms, and clear leadership habits. They help a founder move from firefighting to direction setting. A few people systems that decide whether a startup scales smoothly or stalls: A hiring system that filters for skill and attitude, not just speed Role clarity that removes confusion and prevents silent resentment Performance rhythms like weekly check ins and monthly reviews that keep work visible Feedback habits that are respectful, specific, and consistent Culture practices that are designed, not left to chance > *“When these systems are missing, even a great team starts underperforming,” says Shailesh. “And the founder starts feeling like the only dependable person in the room.”* **Enter MSME India Network, a community built for founders who want a self running team** The MSME India Network is a learning and implementation community designed for Indian startup founders and MSME business owners who want to build strong teams and scale without founder dependence. MINT is built around one core idea. The business should not wait for the founder. It helps members escape what the community calls the Founder’s Trap, where the founder is involved in every decision, every follow up, and every escalation. Over time, this trap limits growth and drains energy. MINT’s mission is to help founders build leadership capability and people systems that scale. Its long term goal is to enable a community of 25,000 plus MSME business owners by 2030, and help them build organisations that are stable, values driven, and execution strong. **How the community works** MINT is not a passive content library. It is structured around participation, reflection, and action. **Here is what members typically experience inside the community:** **1) Clarity sessions that start with the founder** Founders begin by building personal and leadership clarity. This creates better decision making and steadier leadership behaviour. “If the founder is unclear, the team will always feel unclear,” says Kantak. **2) Practical frameworks for building people systems** Members learn a simple people systems framework that covers the full journey of team building. Attracting the right talent, hiring with structure, nurturing culture, enabling learning and growth, and building engagement through ownership. **3) Templates, playbooks, and implementation support** This is where most founders feel relief. Instead of starting from scratch, they get tools they can apply immediately. Job description formats, interview scorecards, role clarity sheets, feedback frameworks, performance check in guides, and simple dashboards. **4) Community learning formats that drive action** MINT runs hackathons, bootcamps, and guided sprints where members work on one system at a time. The environment encourages sharing, accountability, and real progress. A member founder from a services startup recently described the shift in one line, “I stopped chasing my team for updates because the weekly rhythm did it for me.” **Why this matters for startups right now** Startup ecosystems celebrate product, growth, and capital. But people systems often get treated as a later stage concern. In reality, people systems are a growth lever from day one. Startups compete for talent, and retention is fragile. A strong engineer or a strong sales performer will not stay in a workplace that feels chaotic or unclear. Shailesh puts it plainly. “Good people don’t leave loudly. They leave slowly, in their effort first, and then with their resignation.” The earlier startups design their people systems, the faster they can grow without breaking culture, quality, or founder health. **A founder profile that explains why this community is built differently** Shailesh Kantak is not building MINT from theory. He is the Founder and CEO of Flexi Ventures Pvt. Ltd., an HR Consulting and Talent Acquisition firm founded in 2014. Over the years, he has worked closely with business owners and leadership teams across industries, helping them solve people challenges on the ground. That experience shaped MINT’s tone and design. Practical, founder friendly, and rooted in what actually works inside Indian startups. “Founders don’t need motivation,” says Shailesh. “They need a clear path. They need systems that reduce dependence. And they need a community that keeps them honest about implementation.” **The bigger vision** MINT is ultimately a movement to make Indian startups and MSMEs stronger from the inside. Not only through strategy and sales, but through leadership behaviour, team capability, and repeatable people systems. For founders who want to scale, this is the quiet work that changes everything. When people systems are strong, execution becomes predictable. Culture becomes intentional. Teams become dependable. And founders finally get space to think, build, and lead. As Shailesh says, “The goal is not to work less. The goal is to stop being the system.” **Categories:** business --- ### [Wipro Enters into a Deal with TruStage® to Transform its Retirement Services Business](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/wipro-enters-into-a-deal-with-trustage-to-transform-its-retirement-services-business/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Bengaluru, Mar 11:** Wipro Limited is AI‑powered technology services and consulting company, today announced that it has entered into a multi-year contract for business and technology modernization for TruStage’s retirement services business.

Higher oil prices could continue to fuel concerns that inflationary pressures could prove more persistent than previously expected, pushing Treasury yields higher across the curve. The 10-year yield climbed above 4.16%, reflecting growing caution that the Federal Reserve may need to maintain a cautious stance for longer. Expectations moved toward only one rate cut later this year, and another in the middle of next year. A more cautious approach from investors and the Federal Reserve could continue to push Treasury yields higher, supporting the dollar. Attention now turns to today’s CPI report, which is expected to show a monthly increase of around 0.2% for core prices and 0.3% for the headline figure. Any deviation from these expectations could significantly reshape monetary policy expectations for 2026, triggering volatility in both currency and bond markets.

He asked the collectors to make field visits for 8 days and secretaries for 4 days in a month to monitor the ground level situation. The Chief Minister stressed the need for providing drinking water tap to every house within two years. He said internet facility should be provided to each house through fiber-grid in three years. He advised the collectors to use technology and adopt AI which is a game changer to get better results. He stressed the need for improvising digital literacy among people for effective usage of whatsapp governance. He said collectors should focus more on grounding of various projects in their respective districts. Commenting on war impact on the state, the Chief Minister said more attention should be paid for safety of NRIs. Coming to crisis in agricultural sector due to war effect, the Chief Minister said officials should search for alternative markets to protect the interests of farmers.

Security leaders are increasingly recognising that privacy platforms must also incorporate cybersecurity intelligence to detect and mitigate threats targeting sensitive information. Modern privacy technologies now integrate data discovery, threat monitoring, behavioural analytics, and incident response capabilities. This convergence allows organisations to not only manage privacy obligations but also proactively identify cyber risks that could lead to data exposure or regulatory violations. For CISOs and security teams, adopting privacy platforms with embedded cybersecurity intelligence ensures that sensitive data is continuously monitored, protected, and governed across complex IT environments. Here are some of the top privacy platforms and technologies enterprises are leveraging to strengthen data protection while integrating security intelligence. **1. Privacy Governance Platforms with Integrated Data Intelligence** A critical challenge for organisations is understanding where sensitive data resides and how it is being processed across distributed IT infrastructures. Modern privacy governance platforms address this by combining data discovery, classification, and governance workflows with security intelligence capabilities. Solutions such as **Seqrite Data Privacy** from Seqrite provide enterprises with deep visibility into their data landscape. The platform helps organisations automatically identify and classify personal and sensitive information across endpoints, servers, and databases while enabling policy enforcement aligned with evolving privacy regulations. What differentiates such platforms is their ability to integrate privacy governance with security monitoring. By continuously analysing data access patterns and potential exposure risks, they enable enterprises to detect vulnerabilities that could lead to data breaches. This intelligence-driven approach helps security teams prioritise protection efforts and implement proactive controls before sensitive data is compromised. **2. Intelligent Data Protection Platforms with Threat Detection** Privacy protection today requires more than just monitoring data location—it also requires understanding how that data is being accessed and whether malicious activity is occurring around it. Advanced data protection platforms integrate threat detection capabilities to monitor suspicious data access behaviour, unauthorised downloads, or abnormal system activity involving sensitive information. Vendors such as McAfee provide solutions that combine data protection with threat intelligence analytics. These platforms analyse data movement across enterprise environments, detecting unusual patterns that could indicate insider threats, compromised accounts, or external attackers attempting to exfiltrate information. By correlating behavioural signals with threat intelligence feeds, organisations can respond quickly to emerging risks and prevent potential privacy breaches. This intelligence-driven monitoring significantly strengthens an enterprise’s ability to protect sensitive data while maintaining regulatory compliance. **3. Endpoint-Integrated Privacy Protection Platforms** With hybrid work environments expanding the enterprise attack surface, endpoints have become one of the most common points where sensitive data can be exposed or stolen. As a result, privacy protection platforms are increasingly integrating endpoint security capabilities. Security providers such as Kaspersky offer endpoint protection platforms that combine malware defence, behavioural monitoring, and data protection controls. These technologies enable organisations to detect suspicious activity on enterprise devices while simultaneously protecting personal and business data stored locally. For instance, behavioural analytics within endpoint platforms can identify anomalies such as unauthorised file transfers, suspicious application behaviour, or attempts to access restricted data repositories. This enables security teams to quickly investigate and contain potential threats before sensitive information is exfiltrated. Integrating endpoint intelligence with privacy strategies ensures that sensitive data remains protected even in highly distributed and remote work environments. **4. Behavioural Analytics Platforms for Sensitive Data Monitoring** Another major innovation in privacy platforms is the integration of behavioural analytics to monitor how sensitive data is accessed and used. Rather than relying solely on static policies, these platforms analyse user behaviour, system interactions, and access patterns to identify anomalies. For example, if an employee suddenly begins downloading unusually large volumes of sensitive files or accessing data outside their typical role, the platform can flag this activity as a potential risk. Behavioural analytics enables organisations to detect insider threats, compromised credentials, or misuse of personal data much earlier than traditional monitoring systems. By analysing patterns across users, systems, and applications, these platforms provide valuable intelligence that helps organisations protect regulated data more effectively. This approach transforms privacy protection from a reactive compliance function into a proactive risk detection capability. **5. Privacy Risk Intelligence and Continuous Monitoring Platforms** Enterprises are increasingly adopting privacy risk intelligence platforms that provide continuous monitoring of sensitive data exposure across their digital ecosystems. These platforms combine privacy governance with cybersecurity intelligence feeds, vulnerability analysis, and automated risk assessments. By analysing multiple signals such as data access behaviour, network activity, and threat intelligence indicators these systems provide organisations with real-time insights into privacy risks affecting critical data assets. Continuous monitoring also helps organisations maintain up-to-date visibility into their compliance posture while identifying emerging threats that could lead to regulatory violations. Security teams can prioritise responses based on the sensitivity of the affected data and the severity of the detected threat. This level of intelligence allows organisations to move beyond periodic audits and adopt a continuous risk management approach to privacy protection.

Speaking about the initiative, **Dr. Vivek Tandon, Director – GI Surgery & GI Onco Surgery, Medanta Hospital Noida said,** > “Colorectal cancer is one of the most treatable cancers if detected early, yet awareness about screening and early symptoms remains limited. Through the Colorectal Awareness Tunnel, we wanted to create a simple yet impactful educational experience where people can actually visualise what happens inside the colon as the disease progresses. When individuals see how a healthy colon gradually develops polyps and eventually cancer, the importance of early screening becomes much clearer. Our goal is to empower people with knowledge so that they recognise warning signs early and seek timely medical consultation.” Highlighting the importance of preventive screening, **Dr. Deepak Govil, Director – GI Surgery & GI Onco Surgery, Medanta Hospital Noida said,** > “Colorectal cancer often develops silently over several years, which is why screening plays a crucial role in saving lives. Many people hesitate to undergo colonoscopy due to myths or lack of awareness. Initiatives like this tunnel help break those barriers by explaining the disease process in a very visual and relatable way. We hope that this initiative will encourage adults, especially those above 40 years of age or with risk factors, to prioritise screening and adopt healthier lifestyles that support colon health.” The innovative installation recreates the internal structure of the human colon and takes visitors on an immersive journey that demonstrates the progression from a healthy colon to the formation of polyps and eventually to colorectal cancer. As individuals walk through the tunnel, they are guided through different sections that explain risk factors, early warning signs, lifestyle influences, and the importance of timely screening. The visual and interactive format helps simplify complex medical concepts, making them easier to understand for patients, attendants, and members of the general public. The Colorectal Awareness Tunnel also serves as an engaging platform for preventive health education. Through guided walkthroughs and informative panels, visitors are encouraged to start conversations about symptoms that are often ignored, such as persistent abdominal discomfort, unexplained weight loss, rectal bleeding, or changes in bowel habits. The immersive design allows the audience to better grasp how early changes inside the colon can gradually progress into serious disease if left undetected. The initiative is designed to reach a diverse audience, including students from nearby schools, community and referral doctors, Resident Welfare Association (RWA) representatives, and residents from the Noida catchment area. Guided visits, educational sessions, and interactive awareness activities will be organised to encourage participation and improve health literacy among different community groups. Through this awareness drive, Medanta Noida aims to highlight the importance of early detection, dispel myths around colon screening procedures, and reinforce its commitment to advancing patient education and preventive healthcare. The initiative also strengthens the hospital’s position as a leading centre for GI Surgery and GI Oncology while fostering stronger engagement with the community and healthcare professionals alike.

CloudSEK’s research has identified at least 20 active Telegram groups, each with over 100 members, where this toolkit is being discussed, distributed, and operationalised. An analysis of one such group alone indicates that transactions worth ₹25-30 Lakhs were processed over just two days, highlighting how quickly the fraud model is scaling and the number of victims’ connections. Unlike earlier UPI scams that relied on tampered payment apps, Digital Lutera operates at the Android operating system level. The banking app itself remains completely original and digitally valid, passing signature checks and security scans — while the operating system underneath is manipulated to deceive it. As part of responsible disclosure, CloudSEK has informed relevant regulators and financial institutions to help them prepare and take proactive mitigation measures. Security researchers say this marks a significant escalation in India’s digital payment threat landscape, shifting fraud from app-level tampering to system-level manipulation. **How Digital Lutera Works** India’s UPI system relies heavily on SIM-binding — the idea that if a SIM card is physically present in a phone, the bank can trust that device. **Digital Lutera challenges that assumption.** The attack typically begins when a user unknowingly installs a malicious APK disguised as something routine, such as a traffic fine notice or a wedding invitation. Once installed, the malware gains access to the victim’s phone’s SMS permissions. From there, attackers use a specialised Android framework tool on their own device to manipulate system-level identity and SMS functions. Registration messages meant for the bank are intercepted. OTPs are silently forwarded to Telegram channels controlled by the attackers. Fake “sent” SMS entries are inserted into the phone’s message records to make everything appear legitimate. The result is disturbing: a victim’s UPI account can be registered and controlled on a completely different device — even though the actual SIM card never leaves the victim’s phone. CloudSEK researchers have observed Telegram groups actively coordinating login attempts using this framework, suggesting that the technique is already being used in real-world fraud operations. **From App Hacking to System Manipulation** What makes Digital Lutera different is where it operates. Earlier fraud campaigns relied on modifying banking apps. That made them easier to detect because the app’s digital signature would change. Digital Lutera avoids that risk entirely. The app remains untouched. Security checks pass. Nothing appears unusual at first glance. Instead, the manipulation happens inside the phone’s operating system while the app is running. Put simply: the app looks legitimate — but the phone has been manipulated to lie. “This is not just another UPI malware variant. Digital Lutera represents a structural attack on device trust. When the operating system itself is manipulated, traditional safeguards like SIM-binding and app signature checks become unreliable. If left unaddressed, this could industrialize account takeovers at scale across the digital payments ecosystem,” said Shobhit Mishra, Threat Researcher, CloudSEK. **Why This Matters** UPI processes billions of transactions every month and forms the backbone of India’s digital payments ecosystem. For years, SIM-binding has been treated as proof that a bank account is securely tied to a specific device. CloudSEK warns that this assumption may no longer hold. If attackers can spoof system-level SMS and identity checks, they can intercept OTPs, reset UPI PINs, and execute fraudulent transactions in real time. The technique also has the potential to be distributed as a toolkit, lowering the barrier for organised fraud networks. Most importantly, the discovery raises a fundamental concern: physical SIM presence alone can no longer be considered reliable proof of device trust. **Who Is Behind It?** CloudSEK’s investigation links the toolkit to an actor operating in Indian underground Telegram communities. The individual appears to have strong reverse engineering expertise and has reportedly explored ways to bypass advanced anti-fraud protections used by major Indian banks. Researchers believe the actor may have emerged from earlier Android modding communities before moving into organized fintech fraud — reflecting a broader trend where technical skills once used for customization are now being weaponized for financial crime. **What Banks Should Do** CloudSEK recommends that banks strengthen hardware-backed device verification mechanisms and move beyond relying solely on SMS-based SIM-binding. Security controls must assume that device-level SMS confirmation can be manipulated and should incorporate stronger backend validation and runtime integrity checks. > “Digital Lutera is a warning sign of where mobile fraud is headed. We are entering an era where attackers no longer need to break into apps — they manipulate the environment the apps run in. Banks and payment providers must urgently shift toward hardware-backed integrity checks and stronger backend validation models. Security can no longer rely on SMS and SIM presence alone. The future of digital payments depends on rebuilding device trust from the ground up,” said **Shobhit Mishra, Threat Researcher, CloudSEK.** [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [From Oil Dependence to Economic Resilience: The Role of Services Exports and Remittances](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/from-oil-dependence-to-economic-resilience-the-role-of-services-exports-and-remittances/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** Bhumika Lenka **Content:** Global energy markets are often unpredictable. A sudden rise in crude oil prices can send shockwaves through the global economy, particularly affecting countries that rely heavily on oil imports. For India—one of the world’s largest importers of crude oil—such fluctuations can strain the trade balance, raise inflation, and put pressure on the national currency. Yet India possesses a unique economic strength that helps soften these shocks: **a robust services export sector and strong inflows of remittances from overseas Indians**. Together, these two pillars have become a powerful financial buffer, helping the country maintain economic stability even when global energy prices surge. ### **Understanding India’s Oil Vulnerability** India imports a large portion of the crude oil it consumes. Energy is essential for transportation, manufacturing, power generation, and everyday economic activity. When global oil prices rise sharply, India’s import bill increases significantly. This increase affects the economy in multiple ways: - **Widening trade deficit:** Higher oil imports increase the gap between exports and imports. - **Rising inflation:** Fuel costs affect transportation and production, increasing the price of goods and services. - **Pressure on the rupee:** Larger imports require more foreign currency, which can weaken the domestic currency. Because of these factors, oil price spikes have historically posed serious challenges for India’s economic stability. However, the structure of India’s economy has evolved over the past two decades, creating new sources of foreign exchange that help absorb these shocks. ### **The Strength of India’s Services Exports** India’s services sector has emerged as a global powerhouse. Industries such as information technology, business process outsourcing, consulting, financial services, engineering services, and digital platforms generate substantial export earnings. Today, services exports represent a major share of India’s foreign exchange inflows. These exports continue to grow due to several factors: - The expansion of global digital services. - Rising demand for technology and IT solutions. - India’s large pool of skilled professionals. - Competitive service delivery costs. Technology companies, consulting firms, financial service providers, and engineering specialists based in India serve clients across the world. These services generate significant revenue in foreign currency, strengthening India’s external balance. When oil prices rise and increase import costs, **services exports help offset the additional outflow of foreign exchange**, reducing the pressure on the economy. ### **Remittances: A Powerful Economic Lifeline** Another major stabilizing factor for India is the steady flow of remittances sent by Indians working abroad. Millions of professionals, workers, and entrepreneurs living overseas send money home to support families and invest in property, education, and businesses. India consistently ranks among the top recipients of remittances globally. These inflows provide multiple benefits: - **Stable foreign exchange earnings:** Remittances add to the country’s reserves. - **Household income support:** Families use these funds for consumption, savings, and investment. - **Economic resilience:** Remittances remain relatively stable even during global uncertainties. Unlike exports that may fluctuate due to global demand, remittances often remain steady because they are driven by personal commitments and long-term employment abroad. This reliability makes them a crucial stabilizing factor during external shocks such as rising oil prices. ### **How Services and Remittances Offset Oil Costs** When oil prices surge, India’s import bill rises sharply. However, strong inflows from services exports and remittances help balance the equation. In simple terms, these inflows provide foreign exchange that can pay for imports. The result is a **natural cushion for the current account balance**. Instead of relying solely on merchandise exports, India benefits from a diversified external earnings structure. This diversification strengthens the economy in three key ways: 1. **Reducing vulnerability to commodity shocks** Because foreign exchange earnings come from services and remittances, the economy is less dependent on goods exports alone. 2. **Supporting the value of the rupee** Strong foreign currency inflows help stabilize the exchange rate even when import costs rise. 3. **Maintaining investor confidence** Global investors view diversified export earnings as a sign of economic resilience. Together, these factors help India manage external economic pressures more effectively than in the past. ### **The Growing Role of the Digital Economy** A key driver behind the rise in services exports is the rapid growth of India’s digital economy. Technology services, cloud computing, artificial intelligence development, fintech solutions, and digital consulting are expanding rapidly. Indian companies are increasingly involved in high-value services such as: - Software development and digital transformation projects - Cybersecurity solutions - Financial technology services - Engineering design and research support This shift toward advanced digital services is important because it increases the value of exports while reducing dependence on traditional sectors. ### **Policy Support and Structural Strengths** India’s growing resilience against oil price shocks is also supported by economic reforms and policy initiatives aimed at strengthening exports and improving financial stability. Efforts to promote digital infrastructure, encourage startup innovation, expand global trade partnerships, and strengthen foreign exchange reserves have all contributed to the country’s economic strength. In addition, the government has been focusing on diversifying energy sources by investing in renewable energy, electric mobility, and domestic energy production. These initiatives aim to reduce long-term dependence on imported oil. ### **Challenges That Remain** Despite these strengths, challenges remain. Oil prices continue to influence inflation and economic planning. Sudden and prolonged increases in energy prices can still create fiscal pressure and affect consumer spending. Moreover, maintaining growth in services exports requires continuous investment in education, technology infrastructure, and innovation. The global services market is highly competitive, and sustaining leadership will require constant adaptation. Similarly, remittance flows depend on the economic health of countries where Indian workers are employed. Economic slowdowns in those regions could affect inflows. ### **Looking Ahead** India’s economic structure is gradually becoming more balanced and resilient. The rise of services exports and strong remittance inflows has fundamentally changed how the country manages external economic pressures. Rather than being overly vulnerable to commodity price swings, India now benefits from a diversified set of foreign exchange sources. This transformation strengthens the country’s ability to absorb shocks while continuing to grow. As technology-driven services expand and the global Indian workforce continues to contribute to the economy through remittances, these two pillars will remain crucial for maintaining stability in an uncertain global environment. ### **Conclusion** Oil price shocks remain a significant concern for energy-importing nations like India. However, the country’s strong services exports and large remittance inflows provide an effective cushion against these external pressures. Together, they help stabilize the trade balance, support the currency, and maintain economic resilience. As India continues to strengthen its digital economy and global workforce connections, these financial inflows will play an even greater role in protecting the economy from global volatility. In a world where energy markets remain unpredictable, India’s growing strength in services and remittances offers a powerful reminder that **diversified economic foundations can turn potential vulnerabilities into manageable challenges**. **Categories:** business --- ### [TechnoSport appoints Achal Sharma as CTO to drive the brand’s digital transformation](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/technosport-appoints-achal-sharma-as-cto-to-drive-the-brands-digital-transformation/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![TechnoSport appoints Achal Sharma as CTO to drive the brand’s digital transformation](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/gzonu667us.jpeg) **Bengaluru, Mar 11th:** TechnoSport, India’s fastest-growing activewear brand, today announced the appointment of Achal Sharma as Chief Technology Officer (CTO), effective immediately.

There is a growing need to tackle glaucoma as a public health challenge through coordinated efforts that engage the general public, empower care providers, and strengthen the eye health care system at multiple levels. ***Suresh Pattathil, Managing Director and General Manager, AbbVie India***, said: > *“Glaucoma is often called the ‘silent thief of sight” because many patients remain unaware of the disease until significant vision loss has already occurred. At AbbVie, leveraging over 75 years of global eyecare expertise, we are deeply committed to advancing eye care and improving patient outcomes. Through initiatives like this Conclave, we aim not only to strengthen awareness around early detection but also to encourage regular eye examinations. We strive to ensure that more people can protect their vision, safeguard their quality of life, and join us in the mission to #DefeatGlaucoma”* The conclave featured an insightful panel discussion with leading experts in glaucoma care, including **Dr Suneeta Dubey** – Associate Medical Director, Head of Glaucoma Services and Chairperson-Quality Assurance at Dr. Shroff’s Charity Eye Hospital, **Dr Harsh Kumar** – Cataract and Glaucoma Specialist, Centre for Sight, Delhi, and **Dr Ramanjit Sihota** – Glaucoma Specialist at Shroff Eye Centre, with the session moderated by **Dr Deven Tuli**– Glaucoma Specialist, Netram Eye Foundation. To help attendees better understand the real-life impact of glaucoma, the event began with a **Glaucoma Vision Experience demonstration**, allowing participants to simulate the visual limitations experienced by people living with the disease. The activity allowed journalists and attendees to gain a first-hand perspective on how glaucoma progressively affects peripheral vision, reinforcing the importance of early detection. Speaking at the conclave, **Dr Suneeta Dubey** highlighted the importance of timely diagnosis, stating, > *“Glaucoma often develops gradually and without noticeable symptoms, which is why many patients remain undiagnosed until irreversible damage has occurred. Regular eye examinations, especially after the age of 40, are essential for early detection and preserving vision.”* **Dr Harsh Kumar** emphasised the need for improved awareness and screening practices. *“Routine eye check-ups that include optic nerve evaluation and intraocular pressure measurement can help detect glaucoma early. With early diagnosis and appropriate management, the progression of the disease can often be slowed significantly.”* **Dr Ramanjit Sihota** highlighted the importance of patient education and long-term care. *“Glaucoma management requires lifelong monitoring and adherence to treatment. Increasing public awareness about the disease and encouraging timely consultations with eye specialists can help prevent irreversible vision loss.”* Moderating the discussion, **Dr Deven Tuli** underscored the importance of collaborative efforts in tackling the disease burden. *“Addressing glaucoma requires a collective approach involving clinicians, policymakers, and the public. Strengthening awareness and improving access to screening and treatment services will be critical in reducing glaucoma-related blindness in India.”* Glaucoma is a chronic eye disease that damages the optic nerve, often due to increased intraocular pressure. Because the condition progresses slowly and without noticeable symptoms in its early stages, many individuals remain unaware of the disease until significant vision loss occurs. However, with regular eye examinations, timely diagnosis, and appropriate treatment, the progression of glaucoma can often be slowed, helping patients preserve their vision and quality of life.

ABB Group CEO Morten Wierod led the groundbreaking of a new integrated Motion facility in Peenya. He also inaugurated the Electrification and Automation Nelamangala Campus 2 on Kunigal Road. ![ABB deepens Karnataka footprint with new investments to serve high growth emerging sectors](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/0ohsojgjas.jpg) ABB has a strong and longstanding presence in Karnataka, with Bengaluru serving as one of its most important manufacturing and technology hubs in India. With this latest investment, ABB will operate three manufacturing locations with multiple shopfloors in the state, employing more than 3,000 people across its manufacturing operations. > “This expansion reflects ABB’s long-term commitment to India and our local-for-local strategy. By strengthening our manufacturing and technology capabilities in Karnataka, we are bringing advanced ABB technologies closer to customers, enabling industries to improve energy efficiency, digitalize operations and support India’s infrastructure growth,” said Sanjeev Sharma, Country Head and Managing Director, ABB India. ABB’s Motion business is expanding its Peenya campus with two new manufacturing facilities. Spanning 6,100 sq m., the site will accommodate up to 300 employees once fully operational. It will produce a broad range of energy efficient motors, including flameproof (Ex) designs, roller table variants, and large smoke ventilation models, along with low-voltage drives and programmable logic controllers (PLCs). The campus will also host a service and training center enhanced with digital tools and remote diagnostics to support customers throughout the equipment lifecycle. ABB’s portfolio of high efficiency motors and drives installed over the past 12 years has delivered annual energy savings of approximately 20 TWh—equal to nearly half of Delhi’s yearly electricity consumption. At ABB’s second Nelamangala campus, a 16,470 sq m. multi business manufacturing hub has been set up to expand production for the Electrification and Automation businesses. The facility will support a broader portfolio, including smart power technologies, system interface units, gas analyzer system integration, service labs, blending operations, excitation systems and high-power rectifiers. Manufacturing of power management solutions critical for data centers will scale up nearly tenfold at this campus, reinforcing ABB’s role as a key technology provider. ABB’s low and medium voltage systems already power more than 30% of India’s hyperscale data centers. The campus will also advance ABB’s innovation led Make in India portfolio, including blending and excitation solutions for lube, paint, paper & pulp industries. The excitation supply factory will deliver systems not only within India but also for export to the wider region to support reliable power generation and resilient grids. The blending facility will include an assembly line for pigging line valves, automation staging cabinets and on-site factory acceptance tests (FAT) to enable efficient and reliable operations in the Indian paint industry. With this investment, the high-power rectifiers supplied to local chemical and metals customers will now also extend to regional markets. ABB recently announced investment of USD 75 million in 2026 to expand manufacturing and R&D for critical segments and creating 300+ new skilled jobs in engineering, operations, and research. This investment, combined with its 2025 spend of over $35 million, reflects ABB’s commitment to scaling its “local-for-local” strategy in India. Karnataka has long been a center for technology talent across software, manufacturing and R&D, and ABB’s continued investments strengthen the state’s industrial ecosystem by expanding local manufacturing, developing specialized skills and supporting supplier networks across the region. ABB is a global technology leader in electrification and automation, enabling a more sustainable and resource-efficient future. By connecting its engineering and digitalization expertise, ABB helps industries run at high performance, while becoming more efficient, productive and sustainable so they outperform.

Price, now available from Histria Books](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/ogden-a-tale-for-the-end-of-time-by-ben-g-price-now-available-from-histria-books/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Ogden: A Tale for the End of Time by Ben G. Price, now available from Histria Books](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7deipzc6ei.jpg) Histria Books is pleased to announce the paperback release of Ogden: A Tale for the End of Time by Ben G. Price. This compelling book is published by Histria SciFi & Fantasy, an imprint of Histria Books encompassing outstanding, innovative works in the genres of science fiction and fantasy. In Ogden, fantasy collides with the age of machines in a world of crumbling stone circles, hissing steam and monsters who might be more human than the people who fear them. This is a found family story, a gentle-giant outcast tale, and a grim look at industrial progress all wrapped into one character-driven epic. Readers who love “monster as metaphor,” morally gray societies, and slow-burn bonds will find plenty to sink their teeth into. Trolls who literally cannot lie face humans who refuse to hear the truth, while secret orders and ruthless industrialists decide who counts as a person. Ogden is for fans of myth-touched, low-technology fantasy who crave emotional stakes over chosen-one prophecy and intimate relationships over battlefield heroics. It asks what happens when the creature in the cage refuses to play its part in the story and chooses kindness in a world that profits from cruelty. Praise for Ogden: A Tale for the End of Time: “A fantasy of the highest order. Ogden will leave you in wonder, wistful for more and an unwavering insight that Nature is sentient. On this great, green planet, we are but one set of eyes among many that see.” — Tom Mullian, editor at La Mott Times Ben G. Price is a U.S.-based writer who pioneered Rights of Nature legislation in the United States and assisted scores of communities to enact community and nature’s rights-protecting laws. He serves as the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund’s education director and, in addition to Ogden, he is author of How Wealth Rules the World: Saving Our Communities and Freedoms from the Dictatorship of Property. Ogden: A Tale for the End of Time by Ben G. Price, 432 pp., ISBN 978-1-59211-579-2, is available at HistriaBooks.com and from all major book retailers. The book is also available as an eBook and a hardcover. Titles published under the imprints of Histria Books are distributed in the United States and Canada by Simon & Schuster and in the rest of the world through Unified Book Distribution.

A recent study done in Chennai by Sunfeast revealed that **53% of respondents admitted to spending more time on their phones than with their partners** — a statistic that reflects a growing emotional gap in modern relationships. Addressing this growing reality, Sunfeast Marie Light has launched its new campaign — **\#MarieLightMode** — encouraging couples to put their phones aside and rediscover meaningful light moments over Marie Light & tea. ![ITC Foods : Sunfeast Marie Light Launches ‘#MarieLightMode’ to Encourage Couples to Reconnect Beyond Phones](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/q2sqj9tcw5.png) Bringing this insight alive in a heartfelt **campaign film featuring popular actress Jyothika** alongside Senthil, portraying a modern couple who realise that while their digital connections are thriving, their own bond is slowly weakening. A conscious decision to switch off their phones transforms their everyday tea time into a light moment of genuine laughter and conversation. Through this simple yet powerful gesture, the film reinforces the brand’s belief that sometimes, all it takes are light moments — a cup of tea, a light biscuit, and an honest conversation — to make relationships stronger. Commenting on the campaign, **Mr. Suraj Kathuria, VP and Head of Marketing – Biscuits, Foods Division ITC Ltd**, said, > *“At Sunfeast Marie Light, we believe that it’s the small, light moments shared every day that build strong relationships. With #MarieLightMode, we want to encourage couples to take mindful break from screens and rediscover the joy of spending quality time together – because sometimes the strongest connections are built in these light moments.”* As part of the initiative, consumers can scan the QR code on the Sunfeast Marie Light packs to participate in an engaging couple’s quiz that tests how well partners know each other. Participants also stand a chance to win an exciting couple’s trip to Switzerland — celebrating shared experiences and more of these light moments. Actress Jyothika added, “*After marriage, it’s often the daily light moments that keep a relationship strong. In Tamil homes, sharing tea is one such moment. Marie Light Mode gently reminds us to pause, put our phones away, and spend that time talking to each other. This thought really resonated with me.”* The film is currently live across television and digital platforms in Tamil Nadu, supported by in-store activations and social media engagement under the hashtag **\#MarieLightMode**.

Neither of the two zero days patched this month was exploited, and their public disclosure prior to today is the only novel trait. They include CVE-2026-26127, a denial-of-service vulnerability in .NET, and CVE-2026-21262, an elevation of privilege vulnerability in SQL Server. These bugs are more bark than bite. The DoS vulnerability is assessed as unlikely to be exploited and requires an attacker to be authorised beforehand, while the privilege escalation bug was deemed less likely to be exploited.* *“This month, over half (55%) of all Patch Tuesday CVEs were privilege escalation bugs, and of those, six were rated exploitation more likely across Windows Graphics Component, Windows Accessibility Infrastructure, Windows Kernel, Windows SMB Server and Winlogon. We know these bugs are typically used by threat actors as part of post-compromise activity, once they get onto systems through other means (social engineering, exploitation of another vulnerability).* *“This month, Microsoft also patched CVE-2026-26118, an elevation of privilege vulnerability in Azure Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. This bug is a server-side request forgery, so an attacker could exploit it by sending a request to a vulnerable Azure MCP Server, but exploitation requires that the server accept user-provided parameters.

The study of zoology remains a very relevant subject especially in the fields of biodiversity conservation, environmental studies, biotechnology and wildlife management. Nevertheless, it is similar to many academic fields, and career opportunities are largely based on specialization, higher education, and interdisciplinary skills. Learning the pros and cons of studying zoology can enable students to make a wise choice regarding their further educational and professional life. ### Why Zoology Still Matters Today The world is now experiencing severe environmental issues like climate change, habitat destruction, biodiversity loss and emerging zoonotic diseases. Such problems demand the services of professionals knowledgeable about animal biology, ecosystems, and interactions between animals. Zoology is the scientific basis of the study of wildlife conservation, ecological balance, animal behavior and evolutionary biology. The subject is also applied in disciplines such as veterinary science, genetics, environmental science and biotechnology. India is one of the most biodiverse nations in the world and it needs trained zoologists to conserve wildlife, monitor the environment and research on environmental policies. Professionals in animal sciences are becoming more and more important in national parks, biodiversity reserves and research institutions. ### Benefits of studying Zoology There are a number of academic and career advantages of zoology to students who have interest in biological sciences. ▫️Good background in life sciences. A zoology degree gives in-depth understanding of animal genetics, physiology, evolution and ecology. This scientific background will enable the students to undertake various research or applied science professions. ▫️Environmental and wildlife opportunities. Conservation biology and wildlife management are emerging as significant professional disciplines in the face of increasing international interest in the loss of biodiversity. ▫️Opening to high-level scientific jobs. Students who graduate with a degree in zoology usually take a high level degree in biotechnology, marine biology, genetics, or environmental science. ▫️Applicability to the social health study. Animal-borne diseases (zoonotic diseases) studies have gained more importance due to the world health crises, particularly following the global health crises. A learner who undertakes a degree course in zoology will be interested in the ecology of wildlife when he or she goes out to study it. The student starts working with environmental agencies where he/she conducts biodiversity surveys and habitat restoration projects after obtaining postgraduate research on conservation biology. This is the profession that integrates scientific knowledge and actual environmental impact. ### Limitations and Challenges However, zoology has its limitations that students ought to take into account, regardless of the academic value it possesses. ▫️Minimal direct employment opportunities upon graduation. A bachelors degree does not necessarily result in high paying jobs right away. Postgraduate study or research qualification is necessary in most special positions. ▫️Career path of research. Most of the careers associated with zoology are either an academic research or field work, and this can be a long-term commitment and a patient task. ▫️Government and research-competitive roles. Wildlife department, environmental agencies and research institute jobs are usually scarce and fiercely competitive. Nevertheless, students who major in zoology with new interdisciplinary competencies, including biotechnology, bioinformatics, environmental policy, or science communication, have a much broader career opportunity available to them. ### What Are the Possibilities of a Degree in Zoology? The graduate of zoology has a number of options to follow in case of his or her interests and educational objectives. Among the most frequently used ones, there are: MSc in Zoology or other life sciences. Wildlife conservation research and biology. Oceanography or environmental science. Genetic research and biotechnology. Veterinary (with additional qualification) sciences. Academic careers and teaching. Environmental consultancy and ecological research. As an illustration, a graduate majoring in marine biology can be employed in coastal ecosystem studies, fisheries sustainability or marine conservation efforts. The other student could be working in environmental impact assessment work that is associated with development of infrastructure. The trick is the specialization and the ability development once the first degree is graduated. ### Leading Institutes for Zoology in India India also has a number of known universities and institutions with zoology undergraduate and postgraduate courses. These colleges are characterized by good life science departments and research centers. The most notable ones are: University of Delhi Banaras Hindu University University of Calcutta University of Kerala Savitribai Phule Pune University. Jawaharlal Nehru University (advanced biological sciences) Specialized research training may also be undertaken in national institutes dedicated to biological sciences, biodiversity research and environmental studies. A lot of universities also cooperate with the organizations of research on the wildlife, which offers students the chance of field training and scientific projects. ### Profession and Future of Zoology Students The future of zoology is tightly linked to both environmental problems in the world and scientific progress. Conservation biology, climate research, animal genetics, and ecosystem management are areas that are predicted to increase in value. There is also a transformation in the field by emerging technologies. Satellite tracking, genetic studies, ecological modeling, and environmental data analytics have become part of the modern tools of zoological research. Students who add zoology to modern science methods and interdisciplinary expertise will have more employment in research centers, environmental groups, biotechnology firms and as policy advisors. ### A Field to Passion and Purpose Such as zoology, the financial gains might not always be instantaneous like other technology-based professions. Nevertheless, it has one more worthy thing to offer, which is a chance to contribute to the knowledge and defense of life on the planet. Zoology is still a valuable and thought-provoking field to students who are interested in animals and their habitats, as well as in environmental science. It can lead to powerful careers in the science, conservation, and global environmental sustainability with the right specialization and dedication to further studies. Zoology then occupies a special and a significant niche in the scholastic world in the new era of ecological consciousness and scientific creativity.[ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** education --- ### [Blum India Launches Blum Club App to Empower Carpenters and Contractors](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/blum-india-launches-blum-club-app-to-empower-carpenters-and-contractors/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai, Mar 11**: Blum India has launched the **Blum Club app**, a dedicated loyalty and rewards platform for carpenters and contractors, recognizing the craftsmanship that transforms construction sites into quality living spaces. ![Blum India Launches Blum Club App to Empower Carpenters and Contractors](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/x3l4v5ovdw.jpg) **Neelam Shah, Head of Marketing and Communications at Blum India**, said, > *“The Blum Club is our tribute to the skill that defines this industry.

The report provides a comprehensive analysis of India’s growth equity landscape, with detailed insights on deal activity, sectoral trends, exits, fundraising, and the outlook for growth investments in India. ![Praxis Global Alliance and IVCA launch 'India Growth Equity Report 2026' at IVCA Conclave 2026](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/12a28e0drk.jpeg) In 2025, total private investments reached US$ 59.3 billion across 1,885 deals — the best year ever by deal volume and second best by deal value. Growth equity investments sustained at US$ 10.2 billion across 328 deals, with deal count surging 44% over 2024 as average deal sizes moderated to US$ 31.2 million, reflecting a broadening of growth capital to a larger number of smaller, high-potential businesses. BFSI, Consumer & Retail and Business/Tech Services together accounted for 72% of total growth equity value at approximately US$ 7.1 billion, while Healthcare & Life Sciences and Transportation & Logistics recorded strong momentum. Exits from growth stage deals soared 49% to US$ 6.7 billion, with public markets leading at 54%, secondary sales at 25%, and a sharp rebound in strategic sale. India-focused growth funds raised US$ 5.1 billion, a six-year high providing significant dry powder for accelerated deployment over the next two to three years. Looking ahead, India presents an estimated US$ 70 billion growth equity opportunity from its early-stage pipeline alone, with only ~10% of India’s ~90,000 investible businesses having raised institutional private capital to date. For 2026, investors are bullish on Business/Tech Services, Consumer & Retail, BFSI, Healthcare & Life Sciences, and increasingly on Manufacturing, Food & Agriculture and Education as emerging growth equity destinations. Key Highlights: - India is on track to become the world’s third largest economy by 2028, with GDP projected at US$ 5.4T and real GDP growth forecast at 6.2% for 2026 and 6.4% for 2027 — outpacing the US (2.1%), China (4.5%) and Germany (1.5%). With a composite PMI of 58 — the highest globally — exports reaching US$ 850B and a demographic dividend running until 2055, India’s structural growth runway remains unmatched among peer economies. - Average growth equity deal size fell sharply to US$ 31.2M — a 32% drop versus 2024 as investors backed more smaller businesses, democratising access to growth capital. Competitive intensity rose to 1.8 funds per deal from 1.5 in 2024, reflecting deepening co-investment activity and a more collaborative, broadly accessible growth equity market. - BFSI, Consumer & Retail and Business/Tech Services captured 72% of total growth equity at ~US$ 7.1B, with top deals including Zepto (US$ 450M), Moengage (US$ 280M), Innovaccer (US$ 275M), Rapido (US$ 273M) and Uniphore (US$ 260M).

Secondary exits also recovered to US$ 1.7B across 22 deals, with public market and secondary routes together accounting for 78% of all growth stage exit value in 2025. - Over 50% of sub-US$ 300M IPOs from the last three years are trading below their listing price as of March 2026, with ~80% of India’s 2025 IPOs falling below the US$ 300M mark. This, combined with corrected public market valuations and global uncertainty, is driving GPs to increasingly favour private secondary transactions as a preferred and more reliable exit route in 2026. - Climate and sustainability investments held steady at 25 deals in 2025 but total deal value halved to US$ 700M from US$ 1.6B in 2024, reflecting investor caution on deal sizing even as structural interest remains intact. Top investments spanned batteries, renewable energy, EV mobility and agri-tech, with SunMobility (US$ 60M), Ampin Energy (US$ 50M) and Ultraviolette (US$ 45M) leading the pack. - The 2026 outlook is firmly positive, with investors bullish on Business/Tech Services, Consumer & Retail, BFSI, Healthcare & Life Sciences and increasingly Manufacturing, Food & Agriculture and Education. Exit strategies are set to diversify meaningfully, with private secondaries gaining ground alongside active strategic M&A, as India’s strong GDP growth, demographic dividend and deepening capital markets cement its position as one of the world’s most compelling growth equity destinations. Speaking at the launch of the report at the **IVCA Conclave 2026, Madhur Singhal, Managing Partner and CEO, Praxis Global Alliance**, said, > “India’s growth equity story in 2025 is one of resilience, depth and broadening ambition. Despite significant global headwinds, we witnessed a remarkable 44% surge in growth deals, with 606 funds actively backing Indian businesses — nearly double the number from just two years ago. What excites us most is not just the scale, but the direction: capital is flowing deeper into the ecosystem, reaching more sectors, more cities and more founders than ever before. The exits story is equally compelling US$ 6.7 billion returned from growth stage investments in a single year, with public markets, strategic buyers and secondary transactions all firing together, is a powerful validation of India’s maturing capital ecosystem. And as we look to 2026, the breadth of investor interest, the diversity of sectors attracting capital, and the strength of India’s macro fundamentals give us every reason to be deeply optimistic about what lies ahead.” Speaking at the launch of the report at the **IVCA Conclave 2026, Akshat Gupta, Principal, Private Capital, Praxis Global Alliance**, said, > “One of the most encouraging developments in 2025 has been the strength and diversification of exit pathways for growth investors. Exits from growth stage investments surged to US$ 6.7 billion, a 49% increase over 2024 with public markets contributing over half of the value, alongside a strong recovery in strategic sales and secondary transactions. This reflects the growing depth of India’s capital markets and increasing corporate appetite for high-quality growth assets.With US$ 5.1 billion in fresh dry powder raised by growth funds alone, and a US$ 70 billion opportunity pipeline sitting in India’s early-stage funnel, the next few years could be truly transformational for Indian growth equity. India is not just growing, it is compounding. As the ecosystem matures, we expect exits and capital recycling to play an even larger role in sustaining India’s growth equity flywheel.” Speaking at the launch of the report, **Rajat Tandon, President IVCA** said, > “India’s growth equity landscape is maturing rapidly as more companies transition from early scale to institution-grade businesses. This report highlights how alternate capital is playing a critical role in supporting that journey—providing patient capital, governance and strategic guidance. As India’s economy expands, growth equity will be instrumental in shaping the next generation of globally competitive Indian enterprises.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [India’s Mobile Phone Export Boom: A Decade of Transformation in Electronics Manufacturing](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/indias-mobile-phone-export-boom-a-decade-of-transformation-in-electronics-manufacturing/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** Bhumika Lenka **Content:** Over the past decade, India’s electronics sector has undergone a dramatic transformation, with mobile phone exports emerging as one of the most striking success stories. Once heavily dependent on imports for smartphones and electronic devices, the country has rapidly repositioned itself as a major manufacturing and export hub. According to recent statements in Parliament by Union Minister for Electronics and Information Technology **Ashwini Vaishnaw**, India’s mobile phone exports have increased an extraordinary **127 times in just ten years**. From a modest **₹0.01 lakh crore in 2014–15**, exports have surged to nearly **₹2 lakh crore in 2024–25**, reflecting not only strong global demand but also the success of India’s manufacturing policies and industrial reforms. This remarkable growth highlights a deeper shift taking place in the country’s economic landscape — one that positions India as an emerging powerhouse in global electronics production. ### From Import Dependency to Export Strength A decade ago, India was primarily a consumer market for mobile phones. Most devices were imported, and domestic manufacturing was limited. The situation began to change with the launch of strategic initiatives such as **Make in India** and **Atmanirbhar Bharat**, which sought to encourage domestic manufacturing, reduce reliance on imports, and create employment opportunities. These policies encouraged global and domestic companies to establish manufacturing facilities within the country. Over time, India moved from assembling basic devices to producing increasingly sophisticated electronic products. As a result, the country has now transitioned from being a **net importer of mobile phones to a net exporter**, a milestone that reflects the rapid maturation of its electronics manufacturing ecosystem. Today, India stands as the **world’s second-largest mobile phone manufacturing hub**, a position achieved through coordinated policy support, industry participation, and growing technological capabilities. ### The Expanding Electronics Manufacturing Ecosystem The boom in mobile phone exports is closely tied to the overall growth of the electronics manufacturing sector. Over the past decade, India’s electronics production has increased roughly **sixfold**, rising from around **₹1.9 lakh crore in 2014–15** to approximately **₹11.3 lakh crore in 2024–25**. Exports of electronics products have also grown significantly, expanding nearly **eight times**, from **₹0.38 lakh crore to about ₹3.3 lakh crore** over the same period. These numbers illustrate how mobile manufacturing has acted as a catalyst for broader industrial development. Initially, India’s electronics manufacturing focused mainly on assembling finished products. However, the industry is now gradually moving up the value chain. Companies are increasingly involved in the production of **modules, sub-modules, components, and even raw materials** required for electronics manufacturing. This shift is crucial. Building capabilities in components and supply chains reduces dependence on imports, improves domestic value addition, and strengthens India’s competitiveness in global markets. ### Policy Support and Government Initiatives The rapid expansion of electronics manufacturing has been supported by a range of government policies designed to attract investment and build industrial infrastructure. One of the most significant initiatives is the **Production Linked Incentive Scheme (PLI)**, which provides financial incentives to companies that increase their manufacturing output in India. The scheme has encouraged major global brands and contract manufacturers to expand operations in the country. Another important initiative is the **Scheme for Promotion of Manufacturing of Electronic Components and Semiconductors**, aimed at strengthening domestic component manufacturing. This is complemented by the **Electronics Manufacturing Clusters Scheme**, which supports the creation of industrial clusters that provide shared infrastructure and logistics support to electronics manufacturers. These initiatives have helped create a supportive ecosystem where companies can produce devices efficiently while benefiting from economies of scale. ### The Role of MSMEs and Regional Manufacturing Hubs An important aspect of India’s electronics growth story is the participation of **micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs)**. These smaller firms play a critical role in supplying components, providing specialized manufacturing services, and supporting larger production networks. For instance, under the PLI scheme for IT hardware, several approved companies have established manufacturing units in states such as Maharashtra. Notably, many of these firms belong to the MSME sector, demonstrating that the expansion of electronics manufacturing is not limited to large multinational corporations. At the same time, India is witnessing the rise of regional manufacturing hubs where clusters of suppliers, manufacturers, and logistics providers operate together. These clusters improve efficiency, reduce production costs, and accelerate innovation within the industry. ### Global Technology Companies and Local Production The growth of India’s electronics manufacturing sector has also attracted major global technology firms. Many international companies now produce smartphones, laptops, and other electronic devices in India to serve both domestic and export markets. This shift has multiple benefits. It strengthens India’s integration into global supply chains, encourages technology transfer, and generates employment opportunities for skilled workers. In addition, it allows global companies to diversify their manufacturing bases and reduce dependence on a single production location. As geopolitical and supply chain uncertainties reshape global trade, India’s emergence as a reliable manufacturing destination has become increasingly significant. ### Economic and Strategic Implications The rapid growth in mobile phone exports has broader economic implications. Electronics manufacturing is a high-value industry with strong linkages to sectors such as semiconductors, logistics, design engineering, and software development. Expanding production not only increases export earnings but also stimulates job creation across multiple levels of the economy. From factory workers and technicians to engineers and logistics specialists, the electronics sector supports a wide range of employment opportunities. Strategically, strengthening domestic manufacturing capabilities also enhances India’s technological self-reliance. In an era where digital technologies underpin economic growth and national security, building a robust electronics ecosystem is increasingly important. ### Challenges Ahead Despite the impressive progress, several challenges remain. One key issue is the need to increase **domestic value addition**. While India has become a major assembly hub, many critical components are still imported from other countries. Another challenge is the development of advanced semiconductor manufacturing capabilities. Semiconductors are essential to modern electronics, and building a domestic semiconductor ecosystem will require substantial investment, technological expertise, and global collaboration. Infrastructure, logistics efficiency, and skill development will also play crucial roles in sustaining the industry’s momentum. ### Looking Ahead: The Next Phase of Growth The future of India’s electronics sector lies in moving further up the value chain. The focus is gradually shifting from assembly to **design, innovation, and high-value component manufacturing**. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and next-generation telecommunications will create new opportunities for electronics production. As global demand for smart devices continues to grow, India has the potential to strengthen its position as a major exporter of technology products. If current trends continue, the country could soon become one of the world’s most important centers for electronics manufacturing and innovation. ### Conclusion India’s mobile phone export surge represents more than just impressive trade statistics. It reflects a decade of strategic policy decisions, industrial investments, and growing technological capability. From a country once reliant on imports, India has transformed into a major player in global electronics manufacturing. The remarkable growth in exports, expanding production capacity, and strengthening industrial ecosystem all point to a significant shift in the country’s economic trajectory. **Categories:** technology --- ### [Government of Karnataka Signs MoU with Jupiter Meta to launch Indiaʼs First research-driven Policy Manifesto](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/government-of-karnataka-signs-mou-with-jupiter-meta-to-launch-indiaʼs-first-research-driven-policy-manifesto/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Bangalore, Mar 11th:** The Department of Information Technology and Biotechnology has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Jupiter Meta, Indiaʼs agentic consumer intelligence platform to launch a comprehensive, privacy-first research initiative.

Anantha Rao, Consultant Nephrologist & Transplant Physician, KIMS Hospitals, Kurnool** World Kidney Day is observed every year to raise awareness about kidney health and the prevention of kidney disease. The theme for World Kidney Day 2026 is “Caring for People, Protecting the Planet.” This theme highlights the importance of patient-centred kidney care while also promoting environmentally sustainable healthcare practices. In India, nearly 12 crore people are estimated to have chronic kidney disease (CKD). Among them, about 2 lakh patients progress to end-stage kidney disease (ESRD) every year, requiring either dialysis or kidney transplantation to survive. Unfortunately, only about 30% of these patients receive treatment. The remaining patients either lack access to treatment facilities or face financial constraints. As a result, nearly 1.5 lakh patients die every year from kidney disease, many of which are preventable with early detection and timely treatment. The theme of this year also emphasizes the need for sustainable kidney care. Dialysis is a life-saving treatment but consumes significant natural resources, including large amounts of water, electricity, plastic consumables, and generates biomedical waste. These factors contribute to the environmental footprint of healthcare. Adopting environmentally responsible practices in kidney care is essential to ensure that treatment remains sustainable for future generations. Among the available treatments for kidney failure, kidney transplantation is more environmentally sustainable compared to long-term dialysis, as it significantly reduces the consumption of water, electricity, and medical disposables. Therefore, organ donation should be actively promoted at the community level. In Andhra Pradesh, the state government runs the Jeevandan Deceased Donor Transplant Program, which has significantly improved access to organ transplantation. Citizens are encouraged to register themselves as organ donors through the official website [jeevandan.ap.gov.in](http://jeevandan.ap.gov.in). Even living kidney donation is considered safe, as donors undergo extensive medical evaluation and only healthy individuals are accepted for donation. In modern transplant medicine, blood group incompatibility is no longer an absolute barrier, as successful ABO-incompatible kidney transplants are now possible. Dialysis treatment also has a significant environmental impact. Each dialysis session requires around 120 litres of purified reverse osmosis (RO) water, which in turn requires nearly 240 litres of raw water. The 120 litres of reject water generated during purification can be reused for purposes such as cleaning floors, gardening, and flushing toilets, thereby conserving water resources. Dialysis consumables such as dialysers, blood tubing sets, and other disposable materials contribute nearly 300 kilograms of biomedical waste per patient per year. Reducing the environmental burden requires innovations such as lightweight, smaller, and more efficient dialysers, biodegradable packaging materials, and improved recycling practices. The reuse of dialysers, when done under strict safety protocols, can also reduce biomedical waste compared to single-use dialysers. Additionally, dialysis manufacturers are working towards reducing the carbon footprint of dialyser production by minimizing polymer use and increasing recyclable plastic components. The use of solar panels in dialysis units can further help reduce the carbon footprint of dialysis services. The concept of “green dialysis” is gaining importance worldwide. This includes the use of efficient dialysis machines that consume less water, optimized dialysis schedules to reduce energy consumption, shorter and more efficient dialysis treatments, and improved supply chain management to minimize packaging waste. Perhaps the most effective way to protect the environment is preventing kidney disease itself. By controlling diabetes and hypertension, promoting healthy lifestyles, conducting community screening programs, and implementing measures to slow the progression of kidney disease, the demand for dialysis can be reduced, thereby lowering the environmental burden. Early detection of CKD can be achieved even at the village level by screening individuals at Primary Health Centres (PHCs) using simple and affordable tests such as blood pressure measurement, urine examination, and serum creatinine testing. Screening is particularly important for people above 40 years of age, patients with diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, and those with a family history of kidney disease. Healthcare workers should be trained to identify early kidney disease, initiate treatment, and refer patients to appropriate centers for dialysis or transplantation when necessary. While planning treatment, patient priorities and quality of life must always be considered. Community awareness about the causes, prevention, and early detection of kidney disease is crucial to reducing the burden of CKD in society. At KIMS Hospital, Kurnool, efforts are actively being made to contribute to both patient care and environmental sustainability. The hospital regularly conducts community screening camps for early detection of kidney disease, works to slow the progression of CKD, and runs an active kidney transplant program that helps reduce the long-term environmental burden of dialysis. So far, more than 80 kidney transplants have been successfully performed at KIMS Kurnool, making it the only hospital in the Rayalaseema region with a successful kidney transplant program. On this World Kidney Day, let us pledge to protect kidney health through early detection, promote organ donation, and adopt sustainable healthcare practices — caring for people while protecting our planet.

This is one of the key findings of the DHL Global Connectedness Report 2026, released today by DHL and New York University’s Stern School of Business. Based on more than 9 million data points tracking international flows of trade, capital, information, and people, the report offers the most comprehensive view of globalization available. **Globalization has held firm since 2022** The report tracks globalization on a scale from 0% (no cross-border flows) to 100% (borders and distance have no impact). The world’s level of globalization was 25% in 2025, in line with the record high set in 2022. > “Globalization is holding its ground – and that alone speaks volumes about its value,” **said John Pearson, CEO of DHL Express**. “From poverty to climate change, the world’s biggest challenges can only be solved through global thinking. The DHL Global Connectedness Report shows that countries and companies are not retreating behind national borders. That is good news. DHL strengthens global ties by connecting markets, businesses, and people so they can adapt, diversify, and unlock new opportunities – even in uncertain times.” At the same time, today’s globalization level of 25% underlines how far the world is from being fully globalized. In many areas, international flows could expand further in the absence of policy constraints. **AI boom and race to beat tariff hikes fueled trade in 2025** Global trade grew faster in 2025 than in any year since 2017, excluding the volatile Covid-19 period. U.S. importers accelerated shipments early in the year ahead of tariff increases. U.S. imports later dropped below prior-year levels, but rising Chinese exports to non-U.S. markets helped sustain global trade volumes. Trade in AI-related goods surged as countries and companies raced to build AI infrastructure. AI-related products drove 42% of goods trade growth in the first three quarters of 2025, according to WTO figures. **Trade outlook: growth continues, even with higher tariffs** Looking ahead, recent U.S. tariff increases are expected to modestly slow trade growth in 2026 – but not stop it. Global goods trade is projected to expand by an average of 2.6% per year through 2029, in line with the past decade. One reason trade can keep growing despite U.S. tariff hikes is that most trade does not involve the U.S. In 2025, 13% of imports went to the U.S., and 9% of exports came from the U.S. In addition, many countries are pursuing new trade agreements to secure access to alternative markets. **Information flows face barriers, people flows reach new highs** **Beyond trade, the report finds diverging trends across other international flows:** - **Capital:** There is no broad shift of investment from foreign to domestic markets. Multinational firms still earn near-record shares of sales abroad. While announced greenfield foreign direct investment (FDI) fell in 2025, overall FDI flows rose, and cross-border M&A activity remained resilient. - **Information:** Over the past two decades, information flows delivered the largest globalization gains. Since 2021, growth has slowed and become more volatile. Geopolitical tensions and restrictions on data flows may now be materially limiting the globalization of information. - **People:** After collapsing during the Covid-19 pandemic, people flows have fully recovered. The latest data show international travel, student mobility, and migration all at record highs. Singapore leads country ranking, Europe tops regions In the report’s country ranking, Singapore again ranks as the world’s most globalized nation, followed by Luxembourg and the Netherlands. Europe is the most globalized region, followed by North America and the Middle East & North Africa. The United Kingdom has the most broadly distributed flows worldwide. The United Arab Emirates recorded the largest increase in globalization since 2001. **U.S.–China tensions affect only small share of global flows** The report also finds that ties between the world’s two largest economies – the U.S. and China – continue to weaken. However, these ties are surprisingly small in a global perspective. For example, trade between the U.S. and China accounted for 3.6% of world trade at its peak in 2015, before falling to 2.7% in 2024 and to only 2.0% during the first three quarters of 2025. The U.S.–China share of international business investment is even smaller – less than 1% in 2025. **No global split into rival blocs** Even as the U.S. and China decouple, most countries continue to engage with their longstanding partners. Over the past decade, only 4–6% of global goods trade, greenfield FDI, and cross-border M&A have shifted away from geopolitical rivals. Of these flows, most have not moved to close allies but to countries with flexible geopolitical positions, such as India and Vietnam. Overall, the world economy remains far from a broad split into rival blocs. > “The politics and policy surrounding globalization are much more volatile than the actual flows between countries,” sai**d Prof. Steven A. Altman, Director of the DHL Initiative on Globalization at NYU Stern’s Center for the Future of Management.** “Global trade patterns changed more in 2025 than they do in a typical year, but less than they did during other recent disruptions such as the early stages of the war in Ukraine. Sound decision-making requires a calibrated view of how much global business ties are really changing. The risks to globalization are real, but so is the resilience of global flows.” **Traded goods and greenfield FDI reach record distances** Geopolitical tensions and supply chain concerns have led many observers to expect a shift from globalization to regionalization. In 2025, however, traded goods traveled the longest average distance on record (5,010 kilometers). The average distance for greenfield FDI projects also rose to a new high (6,250 kilometers). Most other international flows are stretching over longer distances as well, and longer distances indicate less regionalization. Predictions of a broad move from global to regional business have not materialized – at least not yet. **The DHL Global Connectedness Report** Published regularly since 2011, the DHL Global Connectedness Report provides reliable insights on globalization by analyzing 14 types of international trade, capital, information, and people flows. The 2026 edition is based on more than 9 million data points. It ranks the connectedness of 180 countries, accounting for 99.6 percent of global gross domestic product and 99.0 percent of the world’s population. A set of 180 one-page country profiles summarizes each country’s pattern of globalization. The report was commissioned by DHL and authored by Steven A. Altman and Caroline R. Bastian of New York University Stern School of Business.

The patient required over 250 electric shocks over five days to control the dangerous heart rhythm before doctors finally stabilised him with a complex ablation procedure performed from both inside and outside the heart. To prevent future heart rhythm disturbances, doctors later implanted an Automated Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator, a device that can automatically detect and terminate dangerous heart rhythms. ![SIMS Hospital Saves 65-Year-Old with 250 Plus Shocks via Advanced Electrophysiology](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/mubwaak6gr.jpeg) The patient had previously undergone coronary artery bypass grafting in 2012 at another hospital. In recent months, he developed persistent chest pain and breathlessness. Investigations including coronary angiography revealed that multiple coronary arteries were critically blocked and the earlier bypass grafts had also failed. Echocardiography showed that the patient’s heart pumping function had dropped to around 27%, and doctors also identified a scarred, calcified bulge in the lower part of the heart. Considering the failure of the earlier bypass grafts and the severely reduced blood supply to the heart, the surgical team, headed by Dr. V. V. Bashi, Director and Head of SIMS Institute of Cardiac & Aortic Disorders, performed a high-risk redo Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) surgery to create new pathways for blood to flow to the heart by bypassing blocked coronary arteries. However, about 24 hours after the surgery, the patient developed recurrent episodes of ventricular tachycardia, a dangerously rapid rhythm originating from the lower chambers of the heart. The abnormal heart rhythm was extremely dangerous and did not respond to standard treatments, including medications and specialised nerve-blocking procedures used to control severe rhythm disturbances. To restore normal rhythm and prevent cardiac arrest, the patient required repeated direct-current (DC) cardioversion shocks. Although ventricular arrhythmias occurring shortly after bypass surgery usually resolve within 48 hours as heart function stabilises, the patient continued to experience incessant VT beyond five days. This condition, known as VT storm, required about 50 defibrillator shocks per day, amounting to nearly 250 shocks overall. Continuous monitoring was maintained in the intensive care unit, where a cardiologist and nursing staff remained at the patient’s bedside to deliver immediate shocks whenever the arrhythmia occurred. Subsequently, an electrophysiology team led by Dr. Sanjai P. V, Clinical Lead Cardiac Electrophysiology and Advanced Cardiac Pacing, conducted advanced electro-physiological evaluation and proceeded with emergency ventricular tachycardia ablation, a procedure to identify and treat abnormal electrical circuits responsible for the rhythm crisis. Initially, doctors performed the ablation procedure from inside the main pumping chamber of the heart to eliminate the abnormal electrical signals arising from scarred areas. However, some of the faulty signals were coming from the outer surface of the heart. Reaching this area was challenging because previous heart surgeries had caused the heart to stick closely to the surrounding tissues. To overcome this, doctors used a minimally invasive hybrid approach, creating a limited “keyhole” incision to deliver radiofrequency energy on the outer surface of the heart and eliminate the remaining arrhythmogenic circuits. Following successful ablation, the patient remained in the hospital for nearly a month, including 15 days in the intensive care unit. He remained free from further VT episodes and was discharged in stable condition. One month after the procedure, the patient returned to the outpatient department and underwent implantation of an Automated Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (AICD) to protect him from future malignant arrhythmias. This small device continuously monitors the heart rhythm and automatically delivers an internal shock if a dangerous rhythm recurs, thereby preventing sudden cardiac death. Currently, the patient is doing well. In his comments, **Dr. Bashi** said that redo CABG itself is a complex surgical undertaking, particularly in patients with prior bypass surgeries and severely impaired heart function. However, given the patient’s progressive graft failure and severely reduced pumping capacity, surgery was the only definitive treatment option. “In my experience of nearly 45 years, this is the first time I have seen a patient requiring such a large number of defibrillator shocks continuously over five days and still recovering successfully,” he added. **Dr. Sanjai** commented that the patient developed a rare and life-threatening VT storm following surgery. The arrhythmia originated from scarred regions within the left ventricle, including a heavily calcified area. Using advanced 3D mapping, we were able to identify the abnormal circuits and eliminate them through a combined endocardial-epicardial ablation approach.

The patient from Ram Krishna Pally in Udalguri district, had presented with bleeding caused by cancer in the lower part of the stomach, medically known as antral carcinoma. His condition was further complicated by several chronic illnesses, including chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and diabetes, making the treatment particularly challenging. Upon arrival at BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital, New Delhi the patient underwent a detailed medical evaluation to assess his overall condition and surgical fitness. Clinical examination revealed that he was conscious, stable, and able to tolerate a major surgical intervention. Comprehensive cardiac and neurological assessments were also conducted, which confirmed the presence of age-related physiological changes but did not reveal any active contraindications for surgery. Considering the seriousness of the cancer and the associated bleeding, the multidisciplinary team decided to proceed with a definitive surgical approach aimed at complete removal of the tumour. **Commenting on the case, Dr. Manish Jain Director & Unit Head – Gastrointestinal Oncosurgery BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital said,** > “Treating stomach cancer in elderly patients with multiple comorbidities requires meticulous planning and a multidisciplinary approach. In this case, the patient had chronic kidney disease, diabetes and hypertension, all of which increase surgical risk and can complicate recovery. However, after thorough pre-operative evaluation and optimization, we proceeded with a robotic-assisted D2 subtotal gastrectomy. During surgery, we observed that the tumour was closely associated with major blood vessels and enlarged lymph nodes, which made robotic dissection unsafe. Therefore, the procedure was converted to an open approach to ensure safe and complete removal of the tumour and the surrounding lymph nodes. Our primary goal is always to achieve oncological clearance while ensuring maximum patient safety.” Despite his advanced age and underlying health conditions, the patient’s post-operative recovery was smooth and encouraging. Under close medical supervision, he was gradually progressed from clear liquids to a soft diet, which he tolerated well. He did not experience any major complications during the recovery phase. Continuous monitoring by the surgical and critical care teams ensured that his kidney function, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels remained stable throughout his hospital stay. six days after the surgery, the Patient was discharged on the sixth day post-surgery in a stable condition. He was advised proper wound care, monitoring of surgical drains, and prescribed a short course of antibiotics along with medications for gastric protection and pain control. Doctors also recommended nutritional supplements and laxatives as needed, along with the continuation of his regular medications for blood pressure, diabetes, and prostate-related issues. He has been scheduled for follow-up in the surgical oncology clinic and will collect the final histopathology report of the surgical specimen, which will guide further treatment decisions if required. The successful management of this complex case highlights the role of advanced surgical technologies, careful clinical judgment, and multidisciplinary coordination in delivering safe and effective cancer care, even in elderly patients with significant comorbidities. Doctors at BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital emphasized that early diagnosis and timely medical intervention remain crucial in improving outcomes for stomach cancer patients.

The resulting MDI meets the same purity standards as conventional MDI with up to 40 percent lower carbon footprint compared to conventional fossil-based production routes. ![Covestro, Fraunhofer UMSICHT Partner on Smart Pyrolysis Recycling Pilot Plant](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/a6a320jhd7.jpg) “The contract with Fraunhofer UMSICHT is a decisive step towards industrializing our smart pyrolysis technology,” said Dr. Markus Dugal, Head of Process Technology of Covestro. “This partnership combines our chemical and technology expertise with Fraunhofer’s process engineering capabilities and assets to scale a technology that is able to prove chemical recyclability of end-of-life Polyurethane materials and that could fundamentally change how we source raw materials for MDI production. By recovering high-value molecules from waste streams, we’re turning the circular economy from vision into reality while significantly reducing the carbon footprint of our products.” Under the agreement, Fraunhofer UMSICHT will draw on its pyrolysis research expertise and existing chemical recycling infrastructure to implement and scale up Covestro’s proprietary smart pyrolysis process. The pilot plant has an annual capacity to recycle 2kt of end-of-life foam per year. The resulting amount of aniline could be used to produce insulation for roughly 200,000 refrigerators. The new plant is scheduled to begin operations in mid-2028 and will process rigid PUR/PIR foam waste primarily from end-of-life insulation PU materials. The technology specifically targets rigid foam because it is notoriously difficult to recycle due to its crosslinked molecular structure. **Moving towards industrial implementation** “This project represents the culmination of several years of intensive joint research,” explains Prof. Dr.-Ing. Manfred Renner, Head of Institute Fraunhofer UMSICHT. “It’s perfectly in line with Fraunhofer’s mission to bridge the gap between research and application: we are not just demonstrating technical feasibility but actively moving towards industrial implementation.” Dr. Alexander Hofmann, Head of Thermochemical Conversion Technologies at Fraunhofer UMSICHT adds: “The project is underpinned by our own research and technology developments in chemical recycling and downstream processing. The pilot plant will allow us to optimize process parameters at scale and provide sufficient material for further processing tests and market development.” The smart pyrolysis process yields aniline with approximately 99 percent purity, suitable for producing recycled MDI that meets the same quality standards as conventional MDI. **Rigid foam market in need of closed-loop solutions** This development is particularly important as the MDI market for rigid foam is projected to grow from 1400 kt in 2025 to 1900kt in 2035 in Europe alone, driven by increasing demand for energy-efficient insulation in buildings and refrigeration. EU regulations and market requirements, for example, increasingly request scalable end-of-life solutions for PUR/PIR rigid foam, posing a significant challenge for the industry. The chemical recycling technology developed by Covestro and Fraunhofer UMSICHT offers a viable path forward by breaking molecular bonds to recover valuable raw materials that would otherwise be lost. The technological development builds on extensive research within CIRCULAR FOAM, an EU-funded flagship project coordinated by Covestro with Fraunhofer UMSICHT and 23 other partners across Europe. After successful laboratory and mini-plant scale demonstrations, the smart pyrolysis pilot plant represents the critical next step toward commercial implementation.

Experts are now pointing to a critical failure by brands and marketers to address women as serious financial decision-makers, leaving a wide literacy and engagement gap unaddressed. ![Why India’s Women Investors Remain Underserved – Insights from Neil Borate](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/k8uboa35wt.png) Neil Borate, the former editor at Mint and a leading voice in Indian personal finance journalism, has highlighted systemic neglect by financial brands when it comes to women readers from their lack of gender-sensitive investment education, to marketers taking the lazy default of opting for tokenistic empowerment messages over meaningful content. “Women’s Day becomes this marketing moment full of campaigns, posts and all these things going on but there isn’t a meaningful dialogue that ever happens about money and independence,” said Khushboo Mulani, founder of the Mumbai-based creative agency Slay Media, who included Borate in the conversation as part of a broader push to interrogate the issue. **A Gap with Commercial Consequences** The conversation identifies three compounding problems. First, the near-absence of financial education tailored to women’s specific life stages, income patterns, and risk profiles – leaving campaigns without authentic engagement hooks. Second, structural barriers around investment access and the career-to-wealth pipeline that brands rarely acknowledge, let alone address. Third, and perhaps most actionably for the industry: the largely untapped opportunity for fintech and consumer brands to build deep, lasting loyalty by meeting women where they actually are financially. Borate’s analysis suggests this is not a niche concern. As more Indian women enter the workforce, inherit assets, and manage household finances independently, the demand for relevant financial content and products is growing – while the supply of genuinely useful brand communication remains thin. **Beyond Tokenism** Critics of current industry practice argue that most Women’s Day-adjacent campaigns by financial brands lean heavily on aspiration and imagery while avoiding the harder, more useful conversations around savings rates, insurance, equity investment, and retirement planning topics that research consistently shows women want more accessible guidance on. This isn’t just a slogan it’s structure and strategy. Brands that crack the code on women and money, will be spearheading India’s next wave of advertising,” stated Mulani. The problem has implications outside of marketing. The gaps in financial literacy compound over time (in terms of wealth, negotiating power, retirement security and economic independence) at scale if women are not confident about finances from an earlier stage, those insecurities will carry through to adulthood. Brands, by their very nature and trusted position with consumers, should have both the opportunity — and responsibility to do more than celebrate, advocates argue.

From conversations where voices are heard without interruption to opportunities where ideas lead without bias, inclusion is not an aspiration, it is a lived reality. It is within these everyday interactions that an empowering culture takes shape, where conversations are open, ideas have the freedom to lead, and individuals are encouraged to speak up, take ownership, and grow with confidence. Reflecting this belief, Canon India has unveiled its latest campaign, ‘EveryDay’, which celebrates the small but powerful moments that define an inclusive workplace culture. The campaign brings to life moments that often go unnoticed, team discussions where everyone is heard, workplaces where careers grow alongside personal lives, and environments where talent is recognized purely on merit. Through these moments, ‘EveryDay’ reinforces that equality is not just spoken about, but practiced, consistently and consciously. **Commenting on the campaign, Mr. Toshiaki Nomura, President & CEO, Canon India, said,** > “At Canon, we believe inclusion is not defined by a single day or statement, it is built through everyday actions and behaviors. ‘EveryDay’ reflects our commitment to creating a workplace where people are respected, heard, and given equal opportunity to grow. When inclusion becomes a way of working every day, it drives stronger teams, better ideas, and meaningful progress for everyone.” At the heart of the campaign is a thoughtfully crafted brand film that captures authentic moments within Canon offices, showcasing everyday interactions where voices are not interrupted, ideas take centre stage, and teams grow stronger when everyone has the space to contribute. Canon India further reinforces its commitment to creating a workplace where women can confidently shape their careers, contribute meaningfully across roles, and thrive at every stage of their professional journeys. Building on the spirit of the ‘She CANwithCanon’ initiative, Canon remains focused on cultivating a culture where women feel supported beyond a single day of celebration, through equal opportunities, inclusive practices, and the shared belief that when everyone is given the opportunity to grow, progress follows. Because real change is not defined by a moment, it is built through everyday actions.

Speed, reliability, transparency, and personalization are no longer optional—they are expected. Behind the scenes, **smart supply chains** are driving these expectations, transforming the way products move from manufacturer to customer and reshaping the overall customer experience. Modern supply chains are no longer just logistical operations. They are **strategic drivers of customer satisfaction**, blending technology, data, and human expertise to deliver seamless, responsive, and sustainable experiences. ### **From Cost Efficiency to Customer-Centric Supply Chains** Traditionally, supply chains were focused on cost efficiency, throughput, and inventory management. Speed and accuracy mattered primarily to reduce expenses and ensure products reached retail outlets. However, the rise of e-commerce, omnichannel retail, and digitally empowered consumers has shifted the focus. Today, supply chains are measured by their **impact on the customer journey**, not just operational efficiency. Companies now prioritize flexibility, responsiveness, and transparency. A modern supply chain doesn’t just move products—it **enhances brand trust, builds loyalty, and drives repeat business**. ### **Digital Intelligence: The Heart of Smart Supply Chains** At the core of these transformations lies **digital intelligence**. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning allow businesses to analyze vast amounts of data, predict demand, optimize routes, and manage inventory proactively. - **Predictive analytics** helps forecast customer demand and prevent stockouts, ensuring products are available when needed. - **Dynamic decision-making systems** can automatically reroute shipments, balance inventory levels, and prioritize urgent orders in real-time. - **Digital twins**—virtual replicas of physical supply chains—enable companies to simulate operational changes, stress-test scenarios, and optimize logistics before implementing them. These innovations allow supply chains to respond proactively to challenges, ensuring customers receive accurate, timely, and reliable deliveries. ### **Real-Time Visibility and Transparency** Modern customers expect full visibility into their orders. Smart supply chains leverage **IoT sensors, RFID technology, and advanced tracking systems** to monitor shipments throughout the delivery journey. Customers can now see not only the location of their order but also the condition of sensitive items, including temperature, humidity, and handling metrics. This level of transparency enhances trust, reduces anxiety, and strengthens the relationship between brands and customers. For high-value or perishable goods, real-time tracking is no longer a convenience—it’s a necessity. ### **Automation and Robotics: Speed Meets Accuracy** Automation is transforming warehouses and fulfillment centers into hubs of efficiency: - **Robotic picking and sorting systems** accelerate processing and reduce errors. - **Automated guided vehicles (AGVs)** transport goods efficiently within facilities, minimizing delays. - **Smart inventory management systems** automatically adjust stock levels based on real-time demand, ensuring continuous availability. By combining speed, accuracy, and flexibility, these systems ensure that customers receive the right product at the right time, every time. ### **Optimizing Last-Mile Delivery** The last mile—the final leg of delivery—is critical to the customer experience. Smart supply chains use **AI-driven route optimization** to account for traffic, weather, and delivery priorities, minimizing delays and improving predictability. Innovations like **autonomous vehicles and drone deliveries** are emerging solutions to accelerate last-mile fulfillment, particularly in congested urban areas or regions with limited access. By optimizing the last mile, companies reduce costs, lower carbon emissions, and provide faster, more reliable service. ### **Sustainability: Enhancing Customer Experience Through Responsibility** Consumers today expect businesses to take responsibility for their environmental impact. Smart supply chains integrate **sustainability into logistics decisions**: - Optimized routing reduces fuel consumption and emissions. - Eco-friendly packaging minimizes waste and enhances brand perception. - Sustainable sourcing ensures that products are ethically and responsibly produced. Sustainability is no longer an operational afterthought—it’s a key component of customer satisfaction and brand loyalty. ### **Personalization Through Data Analytics** Smart supply chains leverage customer data to **personalize the delivery experience**: - Offering flexible delivery windows based on customer preferences. - Anticipating repeat orders and ensuring stock availability. - Providing proactive notifications and updates throughout the delivery process. This personalization transforms deliveries from a transactional necessity into a **memorable, customer-focused experience**, strengthening engagement and loyalty. ### **Challenges and Opportunities** Despite the advances, implementing smart supply chains comes with challenges: - Integration of new technologies with legacy systems. - Ensuring cybersecurity and protecting sensitive customer and operational data. - Developing skilled personnel to manage and interpret advanced technologies. However, these challenges are also opportunities. Companies that invest in technology, talent, and process innovation gain **competitive advantage, operational resilience, and deeper customer trust**. ### **The Human Element in Smart Supply Chains** While technology drives efficiency, the human element remains critical. Skilled professionals oversee operations, interpret complex data, and make strategic decisions that machines alone cannot achieve. The best supply chains combine **human expertise with digital precision**, maximizing efficiency, safety, and adaptability. ### **Conclusion: Redefining Delivery in the Digital Age** Smart supply chains are transforming delivery from a back-end operation into a **strategic, customer-centric process**. By integrating AI, IoT, automation, real-time visibility, and sustainability practices, businesses are creating **seamless, reliable, and personalized experiences** for customers. In today’s competitive landscape, supply chains are no longer just about moving products—they are about **building trust, enhancing satisfaction, and fostering loyalty**. The future belongs to companies that can deliver not just goods, but **confidence, convenience, and connection**, redefining what it means to satisfy a customer in the digital age. Smart supply chains have decoded delivery—and in doing so, they are shaping the very future of customer experience.

The surgical team performed a highly specialized laparoscopic procedure in which the cancer-affected section of the bowel was carefully removed. The remaining healthy ends of the bowel were then reconnected to restore the natural passage for stools. The case presented an additional challenge as the patient declined the use of blood products during surgery. Despite the complexity of the procedure, the surgical team successfully limited intraoperative blood loss to **just 20 ml**, and no blood transfusions were required. Following the surgery, the patient is recovering well and has resumed normal daily activities. The patient will continue with chemotherapy and regular follow-up care as part of a comprehensive cancer treatment plan. In India, **Colorectal Cancer** affects approximately **75,000 new patients every year**. Major risk factors include westernized dietary patterns, high consumption of red meat, sedentary lifestyle, and hereditary predisposition. The surgery was led by **Dr. Senthil Kumar Ravichander**, Clinical Lead and Senior Consultant in Surgical Oncology at SRM Prime Hospital. The medical team performed a **minimally invasive laparoscopic high anterior resection**, entering through small abdominal incisions to remove the cancer-affected portion of the sigmoid colon and upper rectum. The procedure utilized advanced surgical technologies including **high-definition 4K visualization and Infrared (IR) imaging**, allowing surgeons to perform precise dissection with minimal blood loss—an especially critical factor given the patient’s refusal of blood transfusion. Commenting on the case, **Dr. Senthil Kumar Ravichander** said: > *“We followed a strict, evidence-based blood conservation protocol that enabled us to perform the surgery safely without blood transfusions. It required meticulous surgical technique, precise anaesthetic management, and close coordination between the anaesthesia, intensive care, and nursing teams.”* He further emphasized the importance of early detection of colorectal cancer. > *“Persistent bleeding during bowel movements, especially if it continues for three to four weeks, should not be assumed to be haemorrhoids alone. Early evaluation, including colonoscopy, is strongly recommended to rule out colorectal cancer. Lifestyle measures such as increasing the intake of fruits and vegetables, reducing red meat consumption, maintaining a healthy body weight, and regular exercise can help lower the risk of colorectal cancer.”* This case highlights how modern **bloodless surgery techniques** can be safely and effectively applied even in major cancer surgeries for patients who decline blood transfusions due to religious beliefs—a situation that historically posed significant clinical challenges.

Workforce projections by multilateral labour bodies suggest that a substantial chunk of job roles expected by 2030 will either be new or substantially different because of technology, demographic shifts, and sustainability mandates. In India’s context, this now poses an additional challenge for students: preparing them for careers where job titles, skill combinations, and work structures are still evolving. **Hybrid Skill Convergence Is Replacing Narrow Specialisation** Employment data since 2020 shows that the fastest-growing jobs are those at the intersection of more than one skill domain rather than narrow specializations. There is an increasing need for digital literacy, analytical reasoning, domain expertise, and human-centric skills together. In contrast, jobs designed with static training in narrow, single-discipline skills are in decline. Such convergence hints that education systems focused on pure subject mastery risk under preparation for hybrid roles leading new industries. **Automation Is Reshaping Tasks, Not Eliminating Human Work** Contrary to early fears, automation has not removed the need for human workers at scale. Rather, task-level analysis indicates technology redistributes work within roles. Repetitive tasks are increasingly automated, while problem-solving, interpretation, ethical judgment, and collaboration remain human-led. This shift places pressure on education to go beyond content delivery to capability development. Students who are trained only to execute tasks struggle when those tasks are automated. **The Declining Shelf Life of Skills Is Redefining Readiness** Perhaps the most critical and underestimated trend is the dwindling life-span of skills. Studies on workforce projects reveal that technical skills currently have an average relevance window of five years or less, whereas this period exceeded a decade in the early 2000s. What this means, therefore, is that the preparation of students for the year 2030 should not solely depend on fixed curricula. Instead, learning agility or the ability to acquire, update, and transfer skills across roles and industries should be emphasized in education. **Employers Are Prioritising Learning Velocity Over Narrow Training** Hiring outcome data increasingly indicates that employers favor the qualities of adaptability, velocity of learning, and problem-solving capacity while selecting early-career talent. Graduates who show an ability to learn new tools, operate across functions, and respond to unfamiliar challenges perform better than peers who have been trained narrowly to perform predefined roles. Evidence like this challenges traditional education models that favor early specialization at the cost of broader capability development. **Education Systems Are Shifting Toward Capability-Based Frameworks** In response, forward-looking education systems are moving from syllabus-driven instruction to capability-based frameworks. These models integrate foundational knowledge with applied learning, interdisciplinary exposure, and real-world problem-solving. Outcomes from programs adopting this approach demonstrate not only greater graduate employability but quicker onboarding and higher early-career progression. It is an approach not about predicting narrow job descriptions, but about building portfolios of competencies highly transferable across roles in evolution. **India’s Demographic Scale Amplifies the Urgency of Alignment** The growing young population in India makes this transition even more crucial. Millions will come into the workforce in the coming decade, entering sectors that are still being shaped. Without systemic alignment between education and future work patterns, skill mismatches are at risk of becoming structural constraints on growth. On the flip side, aligning education with adaptability and capability development places India in a position where it can supply globally relevant talent at scale. Workforce participation data evidences that continuous upskilling is indeed no longer optional but rather increasingly the acquisition of new skills by professionals via modular learning, employer-led training, and short-format certifications throughout their careers. Preparing students for 2030 requires embedding continuous learning mindsets early, rather than education being treated as a finite stage preceding employment. In sum, getting Indian students job-ready for jobs that do not exist today is not a prophetic task; it is a task for the present. Empirical evidence leads toward a labor market characterized by convergence, adaptability, and continuous skill renewal.

From towering skyscrapers to expansive bridges, railways, and machinery, steel has shaped the physical world and enabled human progress. Yet today, the steel industry faces an unprecedented crossroads. Environmental pressures, technological advancements, economic shifts, and geopolitical dynamics are converging to redefine the production, use, and recycling of this essential material. The future of steel is no longer just about strength or durability — it is about **sustainability, intelligence, and adaptability**. This article explores the transformative trends, emerging technologies, and global forces shaping the steel industry as it steps into a new era. ### **Green Steel: Pioneering Sustainable Production** Traditional steelmaking, largely dependent on blast furnaces and coal, has long been one of the largest industrial contributors to carbon dioxide emissions. It is estimated that conventional steel production accounts for **7 to 9 percent of global CO₂ emissions**. As governments enforce stricter environmental regulations and consumers increasingly demand sustainable products, steelmakers are under immense pressure to innovate. The production of **green steel** marks a transformative step toward sustainability. By replacing coal with hydrogen in the reduction process — a method known as **hydrogen-based direct reduced iron (DRI)** — steel manufacturers can drastically cut carbon emissions. Leading companies are investing heavily in hydrogen technology, signaling that a low-carbon future is not only possible but imminent. While the path toward green steel is promising, challenges remain. The production cost of green hydrogen, the infrastructure required for its widespread adoption, and the need for skilled operators all require substantial investment. Nonetheless, the shift represents a historic transformation in how steel is made. ### **Electric Arc Furnaces: A Circular Economy Approach** In parallel with green steel initiatives, **electric arc furnaces (EAFs)** are gaining prominence. Unlike traditional blast furnaces, EAFs rely on electricity to melt recycled steel scrap, dramatically reducing carbon emissions and reliance on raw materials. The growth of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, enhances the environmental benefits of EAF technology. Beyond environmental gains, EAFs also support the principles of a **circular economy** by maximizing resource efficiency and minimizing waste. As scrap recycling networks expand, EAFs are increasingly positioned as a central technology for sustainable steel production, offering both flexibility and scalability for the modern steelmaker. ### **Digital Transformation: AI, Automation, and Smart Manufacturing** Steel manufacturing is embracing the digital revolution. **Artificial intelligence (AI)** and **automation** are now integral to modern steel production. Machine learning algorithms process enormous datasets to optimize furnace temperatures, predict equipment failures, reduce energy consumption, and enhance quality control. On the factory floor, automated robots improve efficiency and safety by performing tasks that are hazardous or repetitive for human workers. Beyond immediate productivity gains, digital integration paves the way for **smart steel plants**, capable of real-time decision-making, predictive maintenance, and adaptive operations. The result is an industry that not only produces steel more efficiently but also responds dynamically to challenges in energy use, quality, and labor efficiency. ### **3D Printing and Nanotechnology: Redefining Material Possibilities** Emerging technologies are pushing the limits of what steel can do. **3D printing**, or additive manufacturing, allows complex steel components to be built layer by layer, reducing waste while unlocking unprecedented design flexibility. Industries like aerospace, automotive, and construction are increasingly adopting 3D-printed steel components for their strength, precision, and efficiency. Simultaneously, **nanotechnology** is enhancing steel at the molecular level. Nano-engineered coatings and the integration of carbon nanotubes create steel that is stronger, lighter, more corrosion-resistant, and better at conducting heat and electricity. These innovations open up new possibilities in infrastructure, transportation, and high-performance engineering applications, positioning steel as not just a material but a **high-tech solution**. ### **Smart Steel and the Internet of Things** Steel is becoming intelligent. **Smart steel** integrates sensors and IoT components to monitor stress, temperature, and structural integrity in real time. This capability is particularly critical for bridges, high-rise buildings, and other infrastructure where safety is paramount. By providing real-time data, smart steel enables predictive maintenance, early failure detection, and more efficient lifecycle management. While costs remain a barrier, the benefits for safety, durability, and operational efficiency make smart steel a cornerstone of the industry’s future. ### **Recycling and the Circular Economy** Recycling has always been central to steel, but modern practices are raising the bar. Advanced sorting technologies and cleaner recycling methods allow steel to be produced from secondary materials without sacrificing quality. Innovations such as biochar are also emerging as environmentally friendly substitutes for traditional carbon sources in blast furnaces. As recycling and sustainable sourcing mature, the steel industry could significantly reduce its dependence on raw mining operations, creating a **truly circular economy** where steel is reused, repurposed, and produced sustainably. ### **Geopolitical and Economic Forces** Steel production does not exist in a vacuum. Geopolitical dynamics, trade policies, tariffs, and global supply chain disruptions heavily influence availability and cost. Regional self-sufficiency in steel production is increasingly considered strategic, especially as nations aim to secure critical infrastructure materials and maintain industrial competitiveness. Economic fluctuations and industrial overcapacity further shape decision-making, requiring steelmakers to balance cost efficiency with sustainability goals and technological investments. ### **Research, Innovation, and Policy Support** Innovation drives the future of steel. Companies are investing in research partnerships with technology firms, universities, and governments to develop new alloys, production techniques, and energy-efficient processes. Policy support, including subsidies and green incentives, accelerates adoption of low-carbon technologies. Nations that foster innovation and encourage sustainable practices are likely to emerge as global leaders in the steel industry’s next generation. ### **Challenges and Opportunities** The steel industry stands at a crossroads. Challenges include: - High costs of green hydrogen and renewable energy integration. - Transitioning legacy plants to low-carbon or circular processes. - Navigating global overcapacity and competitive pressures. Yet opportunities are vast. Advanced materials, smart manufacturing, digital integration, and sustainable practices offer steelmakers ways to create **higher-value products, safer infrastructure, and environmentally responsible operations**. ### **Conclusion: The Dawn of a New Steel Era** Steel will remain an indispensable material for humanity’s progress. However, the way it is produced, used, and recycled is undergoing a radical transformation. The choices made today — whether embracing green technologies, digital innovations, or circular practices — will define the steel industry for decades to come. We are entering a **new era of steel**, where sustainability, intelligence, and innovation converge. For an industry that has existed for centuries, the future promises not only resilience and growth but a profound reimagining of what steel can achieve for society and the planet. **Categories:** business --- ### [Aviva India appoints Harshit Agrawal as Head of Marketing](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/aviva-india-appoints-harshit-agrawal-as-head-of-marketing/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Aviva India appoints Harshit Agrawal as Head of Marketing](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/fi7hiq0pvj.jpg) **New Delhi, India, Mar 11:** Aviva India, one of India’s leading private life insurance companies, recently announced the appointment of Harshit Agrawal as its Head of Marketing.

Set against the backdrop of Bihar and Delhi, the series explores a world where power is not merely contested in elections but strategically cultivated through mentorship, loyalty, and influence. Led by Nana Patekar in his commanding OTT debut as the formidable Ma’at Saab, Sankalp follows an educator who quietly shapes the corridors of power by placing his protégés within the bureaucracy. But as loyalties shift and ambitions intensify, the story unfolds into a gripping ideological battle between mentor and protégé. Also starring Sanjay Kapoor, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Neeraj Kabi, Kubbra Sait, and Kranti Prakash Jha, Sankalp dives into a world where authority is cultivated, alliances are fragile, and rebellion is inevitable. **Here are 5 reasons why Sankalp should be on your watchlist:** **1. Sanskaar, Satta, Samarpan:** In Sankalp, the journey begins with shiksha and sanskaar, where minds are shaped and loyalties are forged. But as samarpan deepens, it slowly unfolds into a larger game of satta, where belief, ambition, and control begin to collide. As the story progresses, values, power, and authority are pushed into direct conflict, raising a compelling question: in a world driven by power, can the lessons of a teacher still prevail? **2. Nana Patekar makes a commanding OTT Debut:** One of the defining highlights of Sankalp is Nana Patekar’s long-awaited entry into the OTT space. Reuniting with National Award-winning filmmaker Prakash Jha, with whom he has delivered some of Indian cinema’s most memorable political narratives, Nana steps into the complex role of Ma’at Saab, a strategist who understands power, loyalty, and influence better than anyone around him. With his trademark intensity and commanding authority, Nana Patekar brings gravitas to the series, anchoring the narrative with a performance that is both layered and formidable. **3. A Modern Story Rooted in Chanakya’s Playbook:** Sankalp draws from the enduring strategic brilliance of Chanakya, translating his philosophy of statecraft, patience, and calculated power into a contemporary landscape. Here, the battlefield is not kingdoms but the machinery of governance itself, where influence is built quietly and power moves are made long before they become visible. By channeling Chanakya’s playbook into modern political realities, the series unfolds as a compelling contest of strategy, foresight, and ambition, where every move carries consequences far beyond the immediate moment. **4. A Powerful Ensemble that Brings the Political Chessboard to Life:** Sankalp features a stellar ensemble cast, with every character representing a different facet of ambition, influence, and a stake in the larger power game. Alongside Nana Patekar as the enigmatic Ma’at Saab, the series features Sanjay Kapoor, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Neeraj Kabi, Kubbra Sait, and Kranti Prakash Jha, each stepping into roles that shape the shifting equations of authority and control. With every character chasing control and influence, the story circles around one compelling question, who is truly pulling the strings? **5. It’s Free to Watch on Amazon MX Player:** Sankalp will be available to stream for free on Amazon MX Player, India’s leading free, premium, ad-supported video streaming service. Audiences can watch the series across the MX Player app, the Amazon shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and connected TVs, making it easily accessible across devices.

The revised framework is designed to streamline approval processes, improve transparency, and attract high-quality investments into strategic sectors such as electronics manufacturing, renewable energy, and capital goods. The policy update reflects India’s broader strategy to strengthen domestic manufacturing capabilities while remaining an attractive destination for global investors. ### Understanding the Revised FDI Framework Foreign Direct Investment plays a critical role in India’s economic growth by bringing capital, advanced technology, and global business practices into the country. However, in recent years the government introduced stricter approval requirements for investments coming from nations that share land borders with India. Under the updated policy, the government has introduced **clearer guidelines and defined timelines** for approving investments in specific sectors. The aim is to ensure greater transparency and efficiency in the investment approval process while maintaining necessary regulatory oversight. By clarifying ownership structures and simplifying procedural requirements, the new framework seeks to reduce delays and uncertainty for foreign investors planning long-term projects in India. ### Focus on Strategic Industries One of the key objectives of the revised FDI rules is to channel investments into sectors that are crucial for India’s industrial growth and technological development. Industries expected to benefit from the updated policy include: **Electronics manufacturing:** India is rapidly expanding its electronics manufacturing ecosystem as it aims to become a global hub for smartphone, semiconductor, and consumer electronics production. **Capital goods and industrial machinery:** Foreign investment can help bring advanced technologies and manufacturing capabilities into the capital goods sector, which is vital for infrastructure development and industrial expansion. **Renewable energy:** India is aggressively expanding renewable energy capacity to meet climate commitments and reduce dependence on fossil fuels. Foreign investment can accelerate the deployment of solar, wind, and green hydrogen projects. By encouraging foreign capital in these sectors, the government hopes to strengthen domestic supply chains and reduce reliance on imports. ### Improving Investor Confidence For global investors, policy clarity and regulatory transparency are crucial factors when choosing investment destinations. The revised FDI framework aims to create a more predictable and investor-friendly environment. Defined approval timelines and clearer guidelines help reduce bureaucratic delays, enabling companies to plan projects more efficiently. This is particularly important for industries involving large-scale infrastructure or technology investments. The new rules also ensure that investments are carefully reviewed for national security considerations while still allowing legitimate business activity to move forward smoothly. ### Strengthening India’s Role in Global Supply Chains The updated FDI policy comes at a time when global supply chains are undergoing significant restructuring. Many multinational companies are diversifying production locations to reduce dependence on a single country. India is positioning itself as a reliable alternative manufacturing hub by offering a large consumer market, skilled workforce, and supportive government policies. By attracting foreign capital and advanced technologies, the revised FDI framework can help Indian industries integrate more deeply into global production networks. ### Supporting the “Make in India” Vision The changes in FDI regulations also align with India’s broader industrial strategy under the **Make in India** initiative. The program encourages domestic manufacturing, innovation, and job creation across key sectors. Foreign investments not only bring financial resources but also introduce modern manufacturing techniques, research capabilities, and global management practices. These factors help improve productivity and competitiveness within India’s industrial ecosystem. ### Challenges and Considerations While the revised FDI policy aims to encourage investment, successful implementation will depend on maintaining a balance between national security considerations and economic openness. Regulatory consistency, efficient approval mechanisms, and strong infrastructure will remain essential to attracting long-term foreign investments. Additionally, policymakers must ensure that domestic industries benefit from technology transfers and skill development associated with foreign investments. ### The Road Ahead India’s decision to refine its FDI rules reflects a strategic effort to remain competitive in an increasingly complex global investment landscape. By offering greater clarity and faster approval processes, the government aims to create a more attractive investment climate for international businesses. If implemented effectively, the revised policy could help India attract higher levels of foreign capital, strengthen strategic industries, and accelerate the country’s transition into a major global manufacturing hub.

Known as the “City of Marbles” and celebrated for its heritage of miniature paintings, Kishangarh plays a significant role in India’s marble trade while also benefiting from religious and leisure tourism from nearby destinations such as Ajmer and Pushkar. ![Radisson Hotel Group Expands Rajasthan Portfolio with 150-Key Kishangarh Property](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/k06yeoo08k.jpeg) The signing reinforces Radisson Hotel Group’s strategy of expanding its presence in emerging markets and culturally significant destinations. With this addition, the Group will mark its **20th property in Rajasthan**, further strengthening its footprint in the state. ### Prime Airport-Facing Location Strategically located just off the **Delhi–Ajmer Expressway** and directly opposite Kishangarh Airport, the hotel will benefit from excellent regional connectivity and high visibility in a rapidly developing tourism and commercial corridor. The airport offers air connectivity to major domestic hubs including Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Surat, Indore and Nagpur. The property is also expected to benefit from leisure and pilgrimage traffic to prominent spiritual sites such as Ajmer Sharif Dargah and the sacred town of Pushkar. ### Designed for Business, Social and MICE Segments The upcoming **Radisson Hotel Kishangarh** will feature **150 well-appointed rooms and suites**, contemporary dining options, and flexible meeting and event spaces.

The signing of Radisson Hotel Kishangarh allows us to establish an early-mover advantage in a market where organised hospitality supply remains underdeveloped. Supported by the region’s strong marble and manufacturing ecosystem and consistent pilgrimage-led travel, we see sustainable long-term demand across corporate, leisure and event segments,” Sharma said. ### Strengthening Growth in Tier-2 Markets Highlighting the Group’s expansion strategy, Davashish Srivastava noted that Kishangarh’s location between Ajmer and Pushkar, combined with improving air connectivity and strong tourism demand, makes it an ideal destination for the Radisson brand. > “This signing reflects our strategy to expand in underpenetrated yet high-growth markets that offer strong fundamentals and long-term value. We look forward to developing a landmark property that combines global hospitality standards with strong local relevance,” he said. Partnering on the project, Rajendra Gupta emphasised that the collaboration marks an important milestone for the development in Kishangarh. > “As the city continues to grow as a centre for trade, travel and tourism, partnering with an internationally recognised brand like Radisson brings valuable operational expertise and market reach. We are confident the hotel will set new benchmarks for hospitality in the region and contribute to the city’s economic and tourism growth,” he said. ### Expanding Presence Across India The hotel is scheduled to open in **Q2 2027** and is expected to leverage its strategic location and early market entry to achieve strong market penetration.

Technology has not only reshaped banking and payments but has also created unprecedented opportunities for millions who were previously excluded from traditional financial systems. While mobile wallets initially captured global attention as a convenient digital alternative to cash, a new generation of **FinTech platforms** is going far beyond simple payments, driving **true financial inclusion** across the world. Financial inclusion is more than access to banking services. It means that individuals and small businesses can **save, borrow, invest, and protect their wealth** efficiently and securely. It means empowering communities to participate fully in economic life, reducing poverty, and enabling entrepreneurial growth. Today, innovative FinTech solutions are tackling long-standing barriers such as high transaction costs, limited infrastructure, lack of credit history, and financial literacy gaps. ## **From Mobile Wallets to Comprehensive Financial Ecosystems** Mobile wallets were the first step in the financial inclusion revolution. By allowing users to deposit, transfer, and pay digitally through smartphones, they brought millions of unbanked people into the financial fold. However, financial inclusion requires more than just access to payments — it demands **holistic financial services**. Modern FinTech platforms are evolving into **digital financial ecosystems** that integrate savings accounts, microloans, insurance, investment tools, and even pension schemes, all on a single digital platform. By combining convenience with variety, these platforms empower users to manage their financial lives comprehensively. For example, microfinance integration allows low-income individuals to access small loans without collateral. Investment modules enable users to participate in low-risk, high-yield savings programs, fostering long-term financial stability. By breaking down barriers to credit and savings, FinTech platforms are **turning financial inclusion from a concept into a reality**. ## **Credit Access for the Unbanked** One of the biggest challenges for financial inclusion has been access to credit. Traditional banks often deny loans to individuals with limited financial history or collateral. FinTech companies are solving this problem through **alternative credit scoring**. By leveraging data from mobile usage, transaction history, e-commerce behavior, and social media patterns, FinTech platforms can assess creditworthiness even for individuals without traditional bank accounts. This approach opens up microloans for small business owners, farmers, and freelancers, enabling entrepreneurship and economic growth in underserved communities. Moreover, these loans often come with **lower interest rates and flexible repayment schedules**, making borrowing more accessible and sustainable. In effect, FinTech platforms are **redefining how credit is distributed**, democratizing access, and reducing financial inequality. ## **Insurance and Risk Protection for the Masses** Financial inclusion is incomplete without access to **risk protection**. In many developing regions, unforeseen health crises, crop failures, or natural disasters can push families into extreme poverty. FinTech platforms are now offering **micro-insurance solutions**, which are low-cost, easily accessible insurance products tailored for low-income users. By digitizing insurance policies, automating claims, and using data-driven risk assessment, FinTech companies make insurance more transparent and easier to access. From health coverage for rural families to weather-based insurance for farmers, these solutions **protect livelihoods** while building trust in formal financial systems. ## **Digital Payments and Beyond: Creating an Inclusive Economy** While mobile wallets revolutionized payments, new FinTech platforms are creating **comprehensive digital ecosystems** that extend far beyond simple money transfers: - **Merchant payments and microtransactions:** Small businesses can accept digital payments, expanding market access and reducing cash dependency. - **Cross-border remittances:** Digital platforms enable cheaper, faster international transfers, empowering migrant workers and their families. - **Peer-to-peer lending and crowdfunding:** Community-driven finance allows individuals to raise funds or invest in local initiatives, fostering economic participation. - **Financial literacy tools:** Gamified learning modules, AI chat assistants, and community education initiatives help users make informed decisions about saving, borrowing, and investing. By integrating these services, FinTech platforms **transform local economies**, enabling communities to participate in broader financial networks. ## **Leveraging Technology for Inclusion** The success of FinTech platforms in promoting inclusion lies in the **smart use of technology**. Artificial intelligence, blockchain, and cloud computing are reshaping financial services: - **AI-driven insights** enable personalized financial advice, fraud detection, and automated customer support. - **Blockchain and digital ledgers** provide transparency, reduce transaction costs, and facilitate secure cross-border payments. - **Cloud platforms** allow scalable, low-cost infrastructure to serve users in remote or underserved areas. These technologies ensure that financial services are **accessible, affordable, and trustworthy**, even for users in rural or marginalized communities. ## **Challenges and Opportunities** Despite remarkable progress, challenges remain. Digital literacy gaps, regulatory hurdles, and limited internet access can hinder adoption. Cybersecurity and data privacy also pose significant risks that FinTech companies must address to maintain trust. However, these challenges create opportunities for **collaboration between governments, financial institutions, and technology providers**. Public-private partnerships, regulatory sandboxes, and innovation-friendly policies can accelerate the adoption of inclusive financial solutions while safeguarding users. ## **The Future of Financial Inclusion** The future of financial inclusion lies in **integrated, intelligent, and user-centered platforms**. By combining digital payments, microloans, insurance, investments, and financial education in one ecosystem, FinTech platforms can empower individuals to manage their finances, reduce vulnerability, and achieve economic mobility. Moreover, as AI, blockchain, and other emerging technologies mature, these platforms will become more **predictive, secure, and personalized**, allowing users to make smarter financial decisions. Financial inclusion is no longer limited to having a bank account or a mobile wallet. It is about **creating an ecosystem where everyone, regardless of income or geography, has the tools to save, invest, and thrive**. In this sense, modern FinTech platforms are not just changing the way money moves — they are **transforming lives**. ## **Conclusion: Beyond Transactions, Toward Empowerment** From humble beginnings as mobile wallets, FinTech platforms have evolved into engines of **economic empowerment**. They provide access to credit, insurance, investments, and financial education, helping millions break the cycle of poverty and participate fully in the digital economy. As these platforms continue to grow and innovate, financial inclusion will no longer be a distant aspiration but a **tangible reality**, driving economic development, equality, and prosperity for generations to come. The era of **inclusive, intelligent, and comprehensive FinTech ecosystems** has arrived — and it promises to reshape the world of finance forever.

From food processing plants to pharmaceutical laboratories and advanced manufacturing facilities, automation is helping companies improve efficiency, enhance safety standards, and maintain consistent product quality. As India positions itself as a global manufacturing hub, technology-driven production systems are becoming essential. Automation not only boosts productivity but also strengthens compliance with international quality standards—an increasingly important factor for companies competing in global markets. ### The Growing Role of Automation in India’s Food Industry India’s food processing sector has witnessed significant growth in recent years, driven by rising consumer demand for packaged foods, expanding exports, and stricter food safety regulations. To meet these expectations, food manufacturers are increasingly adopting automated production systems. Robotic arms, automated sorting machines, and sensor-based monitoring systems are now commonly used in modern food processing units. These technologies can perform tasks such as sorting raw materials, cutting ingredients, packaging products, and conducting quality checks with exceptional precision. One of the most important advantages of automation in food processing is improved hygiene. Automated systems reduce the need for direct human handling, lowering the risk of contamination. Smart monitoring systems also track temperature, humidity, and production conditions in real time to ensure food safety standards are maintained throughout the production cycle. In addition, automated traceability systems allow manufacturers to track ingredients from the farm to the finished product. This capability is particularly valuable in the event of product recalls or quality audits, as companies can quickly identify and isolate affected batches. ### Automation Beyond Food: Impact Across Indian Industries While food processing remains a major beneficiary, automation is rapidly transforming several other sectors across India. From pharmaceuticals to manufacturing, companies are adopting smart technologies to improve operational efficiency and reduce human error. ### Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare The pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors require extremely high levels of precision, hygiene, and regulatory compliance. Automation plays a crucial role in ensuring these standards are consistently met. In pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities, automated inspection systems are used to detect defects in tablets, capsules, and packaging. Advanced imaging technologies and sensors can identify even the smallest inconsistencies, helping manufacturers maintain strict quality control. Automation also allows real-time monitoring of environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and contamination levels within production areas. This ensures compliance with global pharmaceutical regulations while minimizing risks associated with manual processes. Robotics is increasingly being used in vaccine production, sterile drug packaging, and laboratory testing. By handling sensitive materials in controlled environments, robotic systems reduce contamination risks while improving production efficiency. ### Automobile Manufacturing India’s automobile industry has long been a leader in adopting automation technologies. Automotive factories rely heavily on robotic systems for welding, painting, assembly, and quality inspection. Robots can perform repetitive manufacturing tasks with high accuracy and speed, reducing production time while maintaining consistent quality. Automated assembly lines also allow manufacturers to scale production quickly to meet market demand. In addition, AI-powered predictive maintenance systems are helping automotive manufacturers monitor machine performance and detect potential equipment failures before they occur. This reduces costly downtime and ensures smoother production operations. ### Logistics and Supply Chain Automation is also transforming India’s logistics sector, which plays a critical role in supporting e-commerce, retail, and industrial supply chains. Modern warehouses are increasingly adopting automated sorting systems, robotics, and AI-driven inventory management tools. These technologies help businesses process large volumes of orders quickly while minimizing errors. Automated warehouses can efficiently manage product storage, track inventory in real time, and optimize delivery routes. For industries handling perishable goods, such as food and pharmaceuticals, automation also helps maintain proper storage conditions and reduce spoilage. ### Challenges in Automation Adoption Despite its benefits, the adoption of automation in India still faces several challenges. High initial investment costs remain a major barrier, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises. Many smaller businesses struggle to afford advanced machinery and digital infrastructure. Another challenge is the shortage of skilled professionals capable of operating and maintaining automated systems. As automation becomes more widespread, companies will need to invest in training programs to build a workforce equipped with the necessary technical expertise. However, the long-term benefits of automation—including improved productivity, reduced waste, and enhanced quality—often outweigh these initial challenges. ### The Future of Smart Manufacturing in India Automation is expected to play a central role in India’s industrial growth over the coming decade. As technologies such as AI, robotics, and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) continue to evolve, factories will become increasingly intelligent and connected. Government initiatives promoting manufacturing and digital transformation are also encouraging businesses to adopt modern technologies. These efforts aim to strengthen India’s position as a competitive player in global supply chains. Ultimately, automation is not just about replacing manual processes—it is about building smarter, safer, and more efficient industries. From safer food production to precision pharmaceutical manufacturing and advanced logistics systems, automation is helping shape the future of India’s industrial ecosystem.

Increasingly, people in their twenties are reporting hearing-related complaints, a shift that specialists link to lifestyle habits such as prolonged earphone use, continuous exposure to loud sounds, and the growing noise levels in urban environments. Doctors advise simple measures like limiting headphone usage, keeping volume levels moderate, and taking regular listening breaks to protect hearing. In today’s digital era, many young adults spend several hours each day using earphones for work calls, music, gaming, or watching content online for extended hours. Unfortunately, this constant exposure to sound often happens without giving the ears adequate rest. Listening to audio at high volumes for long periods can gradually damage the sensitive structures of the inner ear and may lead to noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), which has now become a growing matter of concern. It is time to protect the ears. **Dr Ankit Jain, ENT, Apollo Spectra Hospital Mumbai,** > “Earphones have become an essential part of daily life, but excessive use at high volumes can harm hearing over time. The inner ear contains delicate sensory cells that help convert sound into signals for the brain. Continuous exposure to loud sound can damage these cells permanently, and once they are affected, they cannot regenerate. We are seeing a growing number of young individuals with early signs of hearing strain. Monthly, nearly 60% of people aged 20–30 show warning symptoms linked to prolonged headphone use and repeated exposure to loud environments. Around 6 out of 10 youngsters report issues such as ringing in the ears, difficulty following conversations, or the need to increase the volume on their devices.If such habits continue, the risk of permanent hearing damage can increase in the coming years.” **Dr Jain further added,** > “Urban noise is also contributing to the problem. Busy roads, construction activity, and crowded public spaces create a constant background sound, prompting many people to increase the volume on their devices to hear clearly. Devices with active noise cancellation can sometimes help because they reduce surrounding noise and allow users to listen at lower volumes. Keep the volume to a moderate level, which is below 65, and limit listening sessions to about an hour at a time. Taking short breaks from headphones also allows the ears to recover from continuous sound exposure. Regular hearing check-ups are important for people who frequently use earphones or work in noisy environments. Focus on your ear health and prevent hearing loss.” **Dr. Neha Pangam, Consultant ENT Surgeon, AIMS Hospital, Dombivli,** > “Every month, nearly 40% of people aged between 20-30 report early signs of hearing-related problems. Around 4 out of 10 youngsters now complain of symptoms such as buzzing in the ears, difficulty following conversations, frequently asking people to repeat themselves, trouble hearing clearly in crowded places, a feeling of pressure or fullness in the ears, and the constant need to increase the volume on phones or other devices. This indicates a growing concern about hearing health among the younger population. Adopting safer listening habits, taking regular breaks from earphones, and keeping volume levels moderate can help protect hearing. Timely evaluation and assistive solutions such as hearing aids can improve communication and quality of life.” Doctors emphasise that protecting hearing should become a priority for the younger generation. By adopting healthier listening practices and being mindful of noise exposure, young people can safeguard their hearing and prevent long-term complications such as permanent hearing loss.

The capital will be used to accelerate **store expansion across Tier-1 cities and support entry into select Tier-2 markets**, while also strengthening leadership and on-ground teams. Additionally, the company plans to deepen its **Korean-inspired food, beverage, and packaged snacking categories** across its omnichannel network and launch new products tailored for quick-commerce platforms. Founded by **Dhruv Kohli**, Boba Bhai has quickly emerged as one of India’s fastest-growing new-age consumer brands. In just two years, the company has achieved rapid growth and is now targeting a major milestone in annual recurring revenue in the near future. The brand attributes its strong momentum to rising consumer demand for global street flavours and its ability to build deep loyalty among young Indian consumers. Looking ahead, the company is working toward a **long-term vision of building a nationwide presence with hundreds of outlets across India over the next five years**. Commenting on the development, **Dhruv Kohli**, Founder of Boba Bhai, said: > *“Over the last two years, we have focused on building systems that allow us to scale with consistency—from product quality and supply-chain discipline to store-level execution. This capital will help us deepen our presence in Tier-1 cities while expanding into Tier-2 markets in a structured way. From what we have seen on the ground, young consumers are increasingly seeking bold, global flavours, but they stay loyal only when the experience delivers every time. Korean street food fits naturally into this shift, and we see strong headroom to build this category at scale in India.”* Investors also expressed strong confidence in the brand’s growth trajectory. **Vishwanath V**, said: > *“Boba Bhai has demonstrated incredible growth and a repeatable playbook that has made it the leading bubble tea brand in the country. The team’s operational expertise and benchmark-beating metrics made it an easy decision for us to continue supporting the company.”* **Shiv Kapoor** added: > *“We continue to be impressed with the strong execution at Boba Bhai across product quality, customer loyalty, and growing scale. The company has planned a strong lineup of new menu items inspired by global flavours, and we look forward to seeing them reach Indian consumers.”* **Harsh Patel** said: > *“The Boba Bhai team has built a market leader across both QSR and FMCG segments in a short span of time. Their ability to combine strong ideas with disciplined execution has been remarkable, and we are excited to see the brand expand into new categories and verticals.”* Driven by the rising popularity of global flavours, the growing influence of Korean pop culture, and increasing openness to modern street-food formats beyond metro cities, Boba Bhai’s **omnichannel model—spanning retail outlets, food delivery platforms, and quick-commerce partnerships—continues to drive strong consumer engagement and repeat demand.** As the brand scales its footprint and product portfolio, Boba Bhai aims to play a leading role in shaping the **next phase of category-led growth in India’s QSR ecosystem**.

The two companies will share relevant consumer data, insights, and technical inputs for the purpose of enabling rooftop solar adoption and facilitating P2P energy trading. The intent of the agreement is also to work towards developing a strategic partnership to have a common mobile application supported by Hygge Energy’s P2P app (available on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store). Hygge Energy’s blockchain- and AI-enabled P2P platform is an end-to-end rooftop solar trading solution designed to operate in compliance with KERC regulations for P2P energy trading. It supports multiple trading mechanisms, enables blockchain-based contract execution, and supports payment transfers in line with the Reserve Bank of India’s Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) policy. The same platform also enables integration support for rooftop solar loan financing and provides platform-related training and onboarding support to Atria Renewable, delivering seamless customer experience. As the solar installer, Atria Renewable will conduct site surveys, system design, proposal submission, installation, and commissioning of rooftop solar systems. They will ensure high-quality installations and compliance with all applicable regulatory and safety standards. Following installation, Atria Renewable will also provide customer support, including maintenance and warranty services, as agreed with customers. **Commenting on the partnership, Prateek Saxena, CEO of Hygge Energy, said,** > “This collaboration with Atria Renewable brings to life Hygge’s vision of using fintech for cleantech at scale. Working with strong local partners like Atria will help Hygge bolster the P2P energy market while strengthening the local economy. Such partnerships ensure that the benefits of our technology extend beyond individual users to the wider community by translating technology innovation and policy support into real-world deployment that will expand rooftop solar adoption in Bengaluru and enable consumers to participate directly in P2P energy markets.” **C. S. Sunder Raju, Chairman and Director, Atria Group, added,** > “Since its establishment in 1960, the Atria Group has remained committed to advancing sustainable energy and community initiatives. As India’s first private hydropower producer, we have also expanded our renewable portfolio to include solar, so we are excited to partner with Hygge Energy, whose peer-to-peer energy trading platform is already well established and being used in Karnataka. We are also encouraged by the innovative solutions Hygge is developing, including carbon emission tracking and carbon credit mechanisms, which have the potential to open up new opportunities in the P2P landscape.” Hygge’s P2P initiative in Karnataka provided them with the capability to create a unique financing model for rooftop solar and battery storage through the tokenization of assets on CBDC. This model allows solar installers such as Atria to promote rooftop solar adoption while expanding their businesses and supporting local job creation.

Among them, the **Allana Group –** one of India’s largest food exporters is playing an increasingly significant role in ensuring that essential food supplies continue reaching import-dependent West Asian economies amid rising geopolitical uncertainties. The stakes are particularly high for the six-member **Gulf Cooperation Council**, which includes the **UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar** and **Bahrain**. The countries’ structural limitations on agriculture mean they are heavily dependent on global food markets to meet basic consumption needs. Across the bloc, 75-90% of food consumption is imported, including roughly 93% of cereals, 56% of vegetables and about 62% of meat. Collectively, GCC countries spend close to $50billion annually on food imports, making stable supply corridors vital for their economic needs. India has increasingly stepped into that role. With one of the world’s largest agricultural bases and a rapidly expanding food-processing sector, the country has become a key supplier of staples ranging from rice and wheat to processed foods, fruits and beverages for markets across West Asia. As the raging war strains logistics and swells shipping risks in the region, such long-standing trade links, especially the one with India, are gaining new strategic significance. The scale of India’s agricultural exports has expanded sharply in recent years. Shipments grew from around $6.6billion in FY2022-23 to $7.2billion in FY2023-24.Rice continues to dominate India’s export basket. In 2024, India exported rice worth $4.08 billion to West Asia. Total shipments reached about 20.1mn tonnes valued at around $12.9billion in FY2024-25, followed by processed food exports worth $7.89billion. Fresh produce from India has also gained ground, with fruits and vegetables alone contributing around $1.82billion in export value during the same period. Within this expanding trade network, the **Allana Group** has emerged as a major pillar of India’s food export ecosystem. Operating in nearly 70 countries, the Mumbai-headquartered conglomerate counts West Asia as one of its most important global markets and today supplies roughly $1billion worth of food products annually to the region. The company’s export portfolio somewhat reflects the diversity of India’s agricultural output. It ships a wide range of washed and unwashed Arabica, Robusta and monsooned- coffees, with annual exports estimated at 24,000–30,000 tonnes. The group also produces aseptic and frozen fruit pulps including mango and guava with an annual capacity of about 50,000 metric tonnes, alongside exports of wheat, other agricultural commodities, frozen meat and potato-based products. Over the past few years, the company has put in significant efforts in building up large capabilities to ensure continuity of food supply during periods of acute disruption or sudden spikes in demand. In fact, at any given time, **Allana Group** holds around 40,000 tonnes of food products ready for immediate dispatch to West Asian markets. These stocks typically include staples such as wheat, fruits, vegetables and coffee. Besides**, Allana** has invested significantly in expanding regional logistics infrastructure to strengthen supply flexibility. The company operates several value-addition and distribution facilities across West Asia, which is further supported by large, advanced grain storage facilities in the UAE, with their warehouse capacity estimated at around 80,000 tonnes. These facilities are meant to ensure food supply continuity during periods of uncertainty. Such safeguards are possibly becoming increasingly important as tensions around the critical Iran-controlled **Strait of Hormuz** threaten to disrupt global trade routes. While the narrow waterway is widely known for carrying a significant portion of the world’s oil shipments, it is equally vital for food imports entering the West Asia markets. Against this volatile backdrop, India’s long-standing commercial ties with West Asia are helping provide stability to regional food markets. Exporters from India such as the **Allana Group** with established supply chains, advanced storage capacity and diversified food portfolios are playing a crucial role in keeping essential commodities moving even as geopolitical uncertainties rise. For West Asia economies that depend heavily on imported food, the India–West Asia food corridor is becoming an increasingly strategic economic lifeline. Within that system, companies like **Allana** are acting as a vital bridge between India’s vast agricultural output and the millions of consumers across war-hit West Asia who rely on those supplies every day.

The conference brought together CISOs, security leaders, risk professionals, and technology experts to discuss how organizations must evolve beyond traditional awareness training to build smarter, behavior-driven human defenses.Centered around the theme **“Building Smarter Human Defenses with AI,”** THRM 2026 highlighted a critical shift in cybersecurity thinking that human risk must be treated with the same seriousness as technical vulnerabilities. Industry experts emphasized that while infrastructure defenses have grown stronger, the majority of successful cyber incidents continue to exploit human behavior across channels such as email, messaging platforms, voice calls, QR codes, and collaborative tools. Throughout the conference, speakers explored how artificial intelligence can be leveraged to continuously assess human risk, detect behavioral patterns, and provide adaptive defense mechanisms. Discussions underscored the limitations of one-size-fits-all security awareness training along with more contextual, data-driven, and personalized approaches to strengthening employee resilience. The conference also facilitated practical conversations around intent-based email security, multi-channel threat defense, and the importance of making security education engaging, relevant, and emotionally resonant. Leaders agreed that building a strong security culture requires combining technological innovation with behavioral science. Commenting on the success of the conference**,** **Mr. Pavan Kushwaha, Founder and CEO at Threatcop and Kratikal** said, > *“THRM 2026 was designed to spark a much-needed shift in cybersecurity strategy from simply training people to actively managing human risk. As attackers evolve, organizations must defend not just their systems but the people who interact with them every day. AI-powered human risk management is no longer optional; it is essential.”With strong participation from global security leaders and robust engagement across sessions, THRM 2026 reinforced Threatcop’s commitment to driving innovation in human risk management. The conference concluded with a clear consensus: future-ready cybersecurity frameworks must integrate AI, behavioral intelligence, and continuous risk assessment to build resilient human defenses at scale.”* [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [Malaysia Airlines Launches Limited-Time Economy Fares for Indian Travelers](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/malaysia-airlines-launches-limited-time-economy-fares-for-indian-travelers/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **New Delhi, Mar** **11:** Malaysia Airlines has announced its special fares from **10th to 23rd March** for travelers in India, offering economy class return fares for **exclusive all-in return fares starting** Bookings will be available till 23rd March 2026, with the offer valid for travel **until 18th December 2026.** As the **Gateway to Asia and Beyond**, passengers can enjoy seamless connections to destinations such as **Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Auckland, Sydney, and more.** In addition to the special fares, the campaign will also draw attention to enhanced connectivity through new route offerings, including **Firefly’s newly launched services to Cebu and Krabi**.

I jest – slightly – but it remains the case that pretty much every asset you look at continues to display an incredibly tight correlation with ‘black gold’, as participants across the globe remain laser-focused on developments in the Middle East. In any case, conditions in the crude complex seem becalmed at least for the time being, with participants having found a degree of comfort in Monday’s comments from President Trump that the war will end ‘very soon’ and that things are ‘pretty much complete’. Despite that, there is still a distinct lack of progress in terms of actual de-escalation, or in terms of transit through the Strait of Hormuz resuming in any meaningful manner. On that latter front, there were some reports of a US Navy tanker escort yesterday, though they were dispelled rather rapidly, while US intelligence has reportedly seen signs that Iran may be deploying mins in the Strait – clearly, an incredibly worrying development if this is the case, given that this would massively complicate the re-opening process. Compounding all that, the G7 and IEA continue to drag their feet when it comes to releasing stocks from strategic petroleum reserves. All that said, the broader dynamic for financial markets remains largely unchanged. Correlations are still pretty much at 1 across the board, with everything trading tick-for-tick with crude benchmarks, and moves in the energy complex being almost the sole determinant of sentiment more broadly. Added to which, this is still a market where nobody wants to be ‘caught short’, where participants still have a working assumption that, at some stage, political actors will always pullback from what are deemed irrational actions, ‘every man and his dog’ is desperate to price the right-tail outcome, with participants then jumping over each other to do so, front-running the potentially inevitable policy pivot, with nobody wanting to be the last bear to change their mind! Still, we do need to be somewhat careful on that front, taking into account not only the energy situation mentioned above, but also the fact that I’m still not entirely sure how you ‘TACO’ your way out of a war when the other side don’t appear overly willing to negotiate at this stage. All that said, while markets continue to trade from headline-to-headline, if there are indeed moves afoot to provide navy escorts to tankers, that is likely to result in a further risk premium being priced out of crude benchmarks, and the market at large, in pretty short order, as it would likely lead to secure Hormuz passage becoming the base case once again. Anyway, the general vibe of trade yesterday was one of a choppy and messy rollercoaster ride, which saw most assets end the day roughly where they started it, as the risk rally, and dollar selling, both fizzled out into the latter part of the NY session. It’s pretty tough at this stage, from a short-term perspective at least, to do anything other than assume that the market will remain relatively choppy, with caution prevailing to a degree, and crude remaining in the driving seat in terms of intraday market moves. Zooming out, though, participants will continue to pay close attention to any signs of off-ramps being taken, or de-escalation being on the cards, while I remain of the view that this short-term turbulence is likely to be just that, with current geopolitical events unlikely to mark a longer-run turning point away from what is still a robust underlying bullish risk narrative. **LOOK AHEAD** – The monthly US CPI figures are usually a standout event risk for markets to navigate, but participants continue to care little about incoming economic data, given the fluid geopolitical backdrop. Hence, today’s inflation report is unlikely to move the needle much, either from a market perspective, or in terms of the Fed policy outlook, given that the data was compiled before the recent energy price shock. Regardless, both headline and core CPI are seen unchanged, at 2.4% YoY and 2.5% YoY respectively, with it likely needing a material surprise for anyone to get excited by the data. Elsewhere, the US sells 10-year notes this evening, while a handful of central bankers from the Fed, ECB, and BoE are due to speak on financial stability – how thrilling!

Surya Loan, an Indian origin digital lending platform dedicated to making finance accessible, has reported that its customer satisfaction rate reached 93 per cent while 60 per cent of its customers returned to borrow again after their first loan. Attributing its success to its integrity and transparency, the company says data demonstrates that people prefer lending services which provide clear terms and fast processing times over the complicated procedures that traditional financial systems use. The steady rise in satisfaction comes from the platform’s focus on the human side of digital finance. By making the application journey smoother and ensuring transparency at every step, Surya Loan has successfully removed the stress and confusion often tied to personal borrowing. Today, nearly 70% of the platform’s users choose to return for their future financial needs. This is a clear sign of the reliable and straightforward experience provided to over one million individuals across 100 cities. “When we look at our growth, the most meaningful part isn’t just the number of loans we give out, but the number of people who choose to come back to us,” said **Manish Bansal, Managing Director of Surya Loan**. “The satisfaction rate of 93% shows that we have succeeded in making finance more accessible for our users. The process becomes easier for borrowers when we maintain simple procedures and deliver approval decisions within 10 minutes.” The platform delivers immediate financial assistance, which users find beneficial during their critical life moments and their personal achievement efforts. The business model of Surya Loan develops through community feedback, as the company felt the need to move beyond its current focus on technological development. The core mission of the SuryaLoan platform will continue to deliver trustworthy and compassionate financial assistance to people throughout the country as the platform expands its services.

In 2026, strategic decision-making has become more important than ever, with organizations across industries embracing mergers, acquisitions and expansion plans to strengthen their market presence. From technology firms to financial institutions and manufacturing companies, businesses are increasingly looking beyond traditional growth models. Instead, they are pursuing partnerships, acquisitions and international expansion to gain a competitive edge in a fast-changing economy. These strategic moves are not only transforming individual companies but are also reshaping industries and creating new opportunities for innovation and economic development. ## The Renewed Momentum of Mergers and Acquisitions Mergers and acquisitions continue to be one of the most powerful tools for corporate growth. In recent years, companies have realized that acquiring complementary businesses or merging with strategic partners can accelerate development and improve market reach. In 2026, M&A activity remains strong as organizations seek to expand their capabilities, strengthen supply chains and enter new markets. Instead of building every new service or technology from the ground up, many companies are choosing to acquire firms that already possess the expertise and resources they need. This approach allows businesses to move faster, respond to market changes more effectively and build stronger, more diversified portfolios. In sectors such as technology, finance, healthcare and manufacturing, mergers and acquisitions are helping companies consolidate resources while creating stronger and more resilient business structures. ## Corporate Expansion Signals Confidence Corporate expansion is another clear indicator of business confidence. Across global markets, companies are announcing plans to open new offices, increase production capacity and invest in new facilities. These expansion strategies often involve entering emerging markets where demand for goods and services continues to grow. By establishing a presence in these regions, businesses can tap into new customer bases and strengthen their global footprint. Expansion also allows companies to build stronger supply chains and improve operational efficiency. In an interconnected global economy, the ability to scale operations and respond quickly to demand has become a critical advantage. For many organizations, expansion is not just about growth—it is about creating a more resilient and adaptable business model. ## Technology and Innovation at the Centre of Growth One of the key drivers behind corporate growth strategies in 2026 is the rapid advancement of technology. Companies across industries are investing heavily in digital transformation, artificial intelligence and advanced data systems. Technology acquisitions have become particularly common as businesses seek to strengthen their digital capabilities. By acquiring innovative startups or specialized technology firms, larger corporations can integrate cutting-edge solutions into their operations. These investments are helping companies improve productivity, streamline operations and deliver better services to customers. In many industries, innovation is no longer optional—it is essential for survival. Businesses that fail to adapt to technological change risk falling behind competitors who are embracing new tools and strategies. ## Strategic Partnerships and Collaborations While acquisitions remain important, many companies are also exploring strategic partnerships as a way to grow. Collaborations allow businesses to combine expertise, share resources and reduce the risks associated with large investments. Joint ventures, research partnerships and industry alliances are becoming increasingly common. These collaborations enable companies to explore new markets, develop innovative products and respond more effectively to changing consumer demands. Strategic partnerships are particularly valuable in industries where technological development requires significant investment and specialized knowledge. By working together, companies can accelerate innovation while maintaining financial stability. ## The Role of Investors and Financial Institutions Investors continue to play a vital role in supporting corporate growth. Investment firms, venture capital groups and financial institutions are providing the capital needed for expansion and acquisitions. Many investors are actively seeking companies with strong growth strategies and long-term potential. Businesses that demonstrate clear plans for innovation, market expansion and operational efficiency often attract significant investment interest. This financial support helps companies pursue ambitious projects, develop new technologies and enter competitive global markets. In turn, successful investments generate economic activity, create jobs and strengthen business ecosystems around the world. ## Transforming Industries Through Strategic Moves The impact of mergers, acquisitions and expansion goes far beyond individual companies. These strategic decisions often transform entire industries by introducing new technologies, improving services and increasing competition. When companies combine their strengths, they can create powerful organizations capable of delivering products and services at a larger scale. This often leads to improved efficiency and better value for customers. At the same time, corporate expansion encourages innovation as businesses compete to offer new solutions and capture emerging opportunities. Industries such as technology, renewable energy, healthcare and digital services are experiencing particularly rapid transformation as companies invest in research, infrastructure and global partnerships. ## Opportunities in Emerging Markets Emerging markets are playing an increasingly important role in corporate growth strategies. Many companies see these regions as key drivers of future demand, particularly as populations grow and economies expand. Businesses are investing in new facilities, distribution networks and service platforms to reach customers in these markets. These investments help create local employment opportunities while strengthening global supply chains. For companies willing to adapt to local conditions and cultural differences, emerging markets offer significant long-term potential. ## Building Sustainable Growth In today’s business environment, growth is no longer measured only by revenue or market share. Companies are also focusing on sustainability, responsible business practices and long-term value creation. Many organizations are integrating environmental and social considerations into their expansion plans. Investments in green technologies, sustainable supply chains and energy-efficient infrastructure are becoming more common. This shift reflects a growing recognition that sustainable business practices can enhance corporate reputation while supporting long-term profitability. ## A Promising Outlook for 2026 As the global economy moves forward in 2026, the outlook for corporate growth remains encouraging. Companies are demonstrating resilience and adaptability by exploring new strategies for expansion and collaboration. Mergers and acquisitions are helping organizations build stronger capabilities, while strategic partnerships and technological investments are driving innovation across industries. For businesses willing to embrace change and invest in the future, the opportunities for growth are substantial. The companies that succeed in this evolving environment will be those that combine strategic thinking, innovation and a willingness to collaborate. In the years ahead, these dynamic strategies will continue to shape the business landscape, creating new possibilities for companies, investors and communities around the world.

This novel is published by Histria Romance, an imprint of Histria Books dedicated to outstanding books in the romance genre. Sophia and Cassius is a bold, genre-bending historical spiritual novel for readers who crave rebellious women, dangerous love, and faith put on trial. This is for fans of subversive biblical retellings, palace-intrigue dramas, and morally conflicted heroes who refuse to bow. Here, the familiar myths of Eden and imperial Rome are turned inside out.

Set in the charged, sultry South of the 1970s, Ribbon of Dreams is a coming-of-age story for anyone who has ever felt like the outsider in their own life. Caught between a strict stepfather, a fractured family, and a country on fire with protest, Skid is that sensitive kid who sees too much and belongs nowhere. This is a novel of first love and bad decisions, of boys taught to be tough who are secretly breaking, of found mentors and broken idols.

Ribbon of Dreams will speak to readers who love character driven fiction, emotionally raw family drama, and the messy, beautiful moment when youth collides with the real world.

Today’s homeowners are paying equal attention to smart layouts, space optimisation and innovative architectural features that make a house both beautiful and functional. Among the many trends shaping contemporary interiors, **hidden doors** are quickly becoming a favourite choice for homeowners and designers alike. Once seen mainly in historic buildings or fictional stories, hidden doors have now entered mainstream interior design. They offer a unique way to maintain clean visual lines in a room while discreetly connecting different spaces in the home. For people building or renovating homes today, hidden doors are not only stylish but also highly practical. ## A Growing Trend in Contemporary Homes The popularity of hidden doors is closely linked to the growing demand for minimalist and clutter-free interiors. Modern homes often focus on simple lines, smooth walls and carefully balanced design elements. Traditional doors, frames and handles can sometimes interrupt this aesthetic. Hidden doors solve this issue by blending seamlessly into the surrounding wall. When closed, they appear to be part of the wall itself, often using the same paint, paneling or wallpaper. Only when the door opens does the hidden space reveal itself. Interior designers say this trend has gained traction particularly in newly built homes, luxury apartments and modern renovations where homeowners want interiors that feel sleek, elegant and slightly unconventional. ## The Appeal of Subtle Design One of the key reasons homeowners are drawn to hidden doors is the sense of subtle sophistication they add to a space. Instead of making every functional element visible, hidden doors introduce an element of quiet design intelligence. They allow rooms to feel more cohesive. Walls remain uninterrupted, and the overall interior appears more spacious and refined. In many cases, guests may not even notice the hidden door until it is pointed out to them. This blend of practicality and surprise makes hidden doors both functional and visually intriguing. ## Creative Ways Hidden Doors Are Used Hidden doors can be integrated into many areas of the home depending on lifestyle needs and the layout of the space. ### Private Home Offices With remote work becoming increasingly common, many homeowners prefer a dedicated workspace that remains separate from the main living area. A hidden door leading to a home office allows the space to remain discreet, especially in open-plan homes where privacy is important. ### Walk-in Wardrobes and Dressing Rooms Hidden doors are also popular for dressing areas. Instead of a traditional door, a wardrobe panel or decorative wall section can open quietly into a private walk-in closet. This approach keeps bedrooms looking streamlined and elegant. ### Kitchen Pantries In modern kitchens, hidden doors are often built into cabinetry. A panel that looks like part of the kitchen wall can open to reveal a pantry or storage room. This keeps the kitchen visually tidy while still providing convenient storage. ### Home Libraries and Reading Rooms Some homeowners use hidden doors to create cozy reading rooms or small private libraries. A bookshelf that swings open to reveal another room adds character and charm to the home. ### Entertainment and Utility Spaces Hidden doors are also practical for spaces like home theatres, laundry rooms or storage areas. By concealing these functional zones, the main living areas remain visually uncluttered. ## Different Styles of Hidden Doors Hidden doors are highly versatile and can match almost any interior style. Designers often customise them according to the architecture of the home. **Flush doors** are among the most popular choices in modern interiors. These doors sit perfectly level with the wall and are painted the same colour, making them almost invisible. **Panel doors** are another option, especially in homes with decorative wall panelling. The door simply continues the pattern of the wall panels, creating a seamless look. A more dramatic option is the **bookshelf door**, where an entire shelving unit functions as a door. This design combines storage with a hidden entrance and is often used for libraries or study rooms. In some homes, designers also incorporate hidden doors behind mirrors, wooden wall cladding or textured wall surfaces. ## Practical Benefits for Homeowners While hidden doors are visually appealing, they also offer several practical advantages that make them a smart home improvement feature. **Improved privacy** is one of the biggest benefits. Hidden doors allow certain areas of the house to remain discreet, which can be useful for offices, storage rooms or personal spaces. They also help maintain **clean architectural lines**, which is a key principle in contemporary design. Without visible frames or handles, the room appears more organised and balanced. Another advantage is **space efficiency**. In smaller homes or apartments, hidden doors can be designed to open in ways that save space compared to conventional doors. ## Planning Hidden Doors in Home Renovations For homeowners considering hidden doors, planning is essential. These features work best when they are incorporated early in the design or renovation process. Architects, carpenters and interior designers typically work together to ensure that the door mechanism, hinges and wall finishing align perfectly. Precision is important because even small design inconsistencies can reveal the presence of the door. Materials, lighting and furniture placement should also be carefully considered so that the door blends naturally into the surrounding interior. ## Blending Innovation with Everyday Living Hidden doors represent more than just a design trend. They reflect a broader shift in how homeowners think about living spaces. Modern interiors are increasingly focused on flexibility, smart storage and thoughtful design solutions that enhance everyday life. By combining style with functionality, hidden doors bring a sense of creativity and discovery into the home. They make interiors feel more refined while adding a subtle element of surprise. For homeowners planning new interiors or home improvement projects, hidden doors offer a unique opportunity to create spaces that are both practical and memorable. With careful planning and skilled craftsmanship, this innovative feature can transform an ordinary home into one that feels thoughtfully designed from every angle.

The company, which has built one of India’s large financial inclusion networks through its banking correspondent infrastructure, is now leveraging this foundation to develop new services for the agricultural sector. ASMS currently connects with an estimated 40 million rural citizens through a network of over 5,000 banking correspondents across 10 states in India. Through Project AVIO Agritech, the company aims to engage up to 20 million farmers across more than 5,000 villages, creating a broader ecosystem that integrates sustainable agriculture, climate solutions, digital advisory, and rural financing. Over the past few weeks, ASMS has entered into multiple Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with organisations working across climate services, sustainable agriculture, environmental solutions, and carbon markets. These partnerships include Kosher Climate India Private Limited, Enrich Power and Water Technologies, Ecoveda Climate LLP, and Pranadhaara Agri Smart Solutions (CarbonMint). Each partnership brings specialised expertise to the platform being developed around ASMS’s rural network. The collaboration with Kosher Climate India will support carbon project development and access to global voluntary carbon markets, enabling the monetisation of sustainable farming practices. The collaboration with Enrich Power and Water Technologies will support initiatives in water optimisation, solar-powered irrigation, and rural energy solutions aimed at improving resource efficiency and reducing farmers’ input costs. The collaboration with Ecoveda Climate LLP will support agroforestry, regenerative agriculture, and other nature-based solutions capable of generating carbon credits and climate-linked income streams for farming communities. The collaboration with Pranadhaara Agri Smart Solutions (CarbonMint) will support digital farm advisory, mechanisation access, and monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) systems required for carbon and sustainability programs. Through these collaborations, ASMS aims to strengthen rural livelihoods by introducing integrated solutions covering regenerative agriculture, carbon credit generation, water management, climate advisory, digital farm services, and access to financing. The objective is to enable farmers to improve productivity, reduce input costs, and generate additional income streams linked to sustainability programs. The initial rollout of the initiatives will focus on Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh, with implementation expected over the next six to twelve months through pilot clusters and partner-led deployment models. Commenting on the initiative, **N. Vidhya Sagar Reddy, Managing Director, ASMS**, said: > *“Over the years, our financial inclusion initiatives have helped us build a strong rural network. Through Project AVIO Agritech, we aim to build services and economic opportunities around that network by working with specialised ecosystem partners across agriculture, climate, and sustainability sectors.”* The partnerships reflect ASMS’s broader vision of developing an integrated platform that connects financial services, agricultural programmes, and sustainability initiatives while working with a range of domain partners. With multiple collaborations already initiated and further partnerships under discussion, ASMS expects the ecosystem around Project AVIO Agritech to continue expanding in the coming months as the company deepens its engagement with agricultural and sustainability stakeholders.

The collaboration brings together high-performance, eco-conscious coatings expertise and precision-engineered hive manufacturing to strengthen India’s apiculture infrastructure from the ground up. The initiative focuses on enhancing the durability, safety, and longevity of wooden beehives, thereby supporting healthier bee colonies and improved rural incomes. **Mr. Mark Titus, President-Decorative Coatings Business, Nippon Paint India**, said, > *“The beehive represents productivity, interdependence, and resilience. By extending our expertise in durable and environmentally responsible coatings to this ecosystem, we are contributing beyond product performance, supporting livelihoods, strengthening biodiversity, and enabling long-term rural sustainability.”* As a GreenPro-certified brand, Nippon Paint India adheres to stringent environmental benchmarks, ensuring its coatings are free from harmful VOCs and safe for surrounding ecosystems. The low-VOC formulations provide structural protection while maintaining a bee-safe environment within the hive. Humble Bee’s beehives, manufactured at its Varanasi facility, India’s first precision-engineered beehive manufacturing unit, are crafted using sustainably sourced Southern Yellow Pine. These hives are coated with Nippon Paint’s low-VOC, weather-resistant formulations designed to withstand India’s diverse climatic conditions. > **Ms. Monika Shukla, CEO and Co-founder of Humble Bee** added, “*Every color on these hives tells a story, of a woman reclaiming her agency, of crops that flourish, and of biodiversity that revives*.” Across tribal and rural regions, particularly among first-generation women farmers, these painted hives are being introduced to improve productivity, resilience, and livelihood stability. India continues to face a significant gap in pollination capacity, even as global honey markets increasingly demand traceable and ethically produced products. This partnership seeks to address both challenges by strengthening the foundation of sustainable apiculture at the hive level. Field trials will be conducted over the coming months to assess bee compatibility, coating durability, and performance under varying environmental conditions, after which the initiative is expected to scale across key regions in India. As part of the collaboration, Nippon Paint and Humble Bee have also co-developed a distinctive ‘Blobby’ hive design, reflecting a shared commitment to innovation and community impact.

By combining **science-led education with restorative therapies**, the programme aims to transform a phase often associated with uncertainty into an empowering journey focused on longevity, wellbeing, and self-mastery. ### Building Momentum: From Dubai to the Maldives The announcement follows the success of ELE|NA’s recent **“Wellness on Deck”** gathering in Dubai. Hosted aboard a private yacht at Dubai Marina, the event brought together global experts to address the often-overlooked subject of hormonal transitions and women’s health. The Dubai event featured renowned therapist Marisa Peer, menopause specialist Dr. Fiona Rennie, and filmmaker Punam Verma, creator of the documentary *Men on Pause*. Their discussions helped shift menopause from the margins of health conversations to the forefront of an **empowerment-driven narrative**, paving the way for the deeper experiential work that will take place during the Maldives retreat. ### A Holistic Blueprint for Transformation Set against the tranquil turquoise waters of the Maldives, **The Art of Graceful Change** retreat is designed as a comprehensive wellness ecosystem rather than a traditional spa getaway. The programme integrates science-based insights with holistic healing practices to support women through hormonal transitions. Key focus areas of the retreat include: - **Hormonal Literacy & Metabolic Health:** Understanding the physiological changes associated with menopause and perimenopause. - **Sleep Restoration:** Evidence-based techniques for nervous system regulation and improved sleep quality. - **Gut Health & Sustainable Nutrition:** Science-backed nutritional strategies to support inflammatory balance and metabolic wellbeing. - **Strength & Mobility:** Specialised movement programmes designed to enhance bone density, mobility, and longevity. - **Emotional Resilience:** Workshops focusing on identity evolution, emotional wellbeing, and leadership through life transitions. ### A Science-Led, Personalised Wellness Approach According to Heidi Grimwood, the retreat places a strong emphasis on personalised wellness supported by scientific insight. “Women deserve credible, science-led support as they navigate perimenopause and menopause,” said Grimwood. “Through **QEST4**, our epigenetic lifestyle assessment, we gain a deeper understanding of how each woman’s body uniquely responds to hormones, stress, nutrition, sleep, and environmental factors. These insights guide every element of the retreat experience—from movement and nutrition to therapies and recovery—helping address symptoms such as fatigue, mood changes, weight fluctuations, and sleep disturbances.” Alongside personalised scientific insights, the programme integrates **breathwork, restorative movement, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and guided reflection**, recognising menopause not simply as a hormonal shift but as an opportunity to recalibrate and deepen one’s relationship with self. By combining advanced diagnostics with holistic wellbeing practices, the retreat aims to provide participants with **clarity, confidence, and a supportive path forward**. Through initiatives like **The Art of Graceful Change**, ELE|NA reinforces its broader global mission that **wellness is not a luxury but a fundamental right**—empowering individuals to understand and support their bodies through every stage of life.

The campaign aims to spotlight authentic stories of resilience, ambition, struggle, and women’s own definitions of success. The campaign spotlights inspiring women from diverse professional backgrounds who prioritize self-care while navigating demanding personal and professional lives. By sharing their authentic routines and reflections, the initiative encourages women to rethink wellness as a personal, evolving journey rather than a rigid ideal. At a time when portrayals of success and womanhood are often shaped by unrealistic standards, the campaign brings the focus back to reality by highlighting five women with real stories who are shaping modern India across fields such as entrepreneurship, healthcare, sports and fitness, social impact, corporate leadership, and the creative industries. Through their experiences, the campaign underscores that wellness looks different for every woman and is deeply connected to balance, resilience, and self-awareness. With **HerWellnessHerWay**, Yoginii aims to highlight the many ways women define success and wellness in their own lives. The campaign reinforces the belief that strength, ambition, femininity, and wellbeing can coexist in multiple forms, and that each woman’s journey is unique. “As women juggle multiple responsibilities, wellness often becomes the first thing they put on hold,” said **Kashika Malhotra, Founder & CEO of Yoginii**. “With ‘Her Wellness, Her Way,’ we want to remind women that wellness doesn’t have to be complicated or perfect, it simply needs to be personal and sustainable.” By amplifying real voices and relatable stories, the campaign aims to inspire women to embrace wellness as an evolving journey, one that prioritizes balance, authenticity, and self-compassion.

Escalating tensions in the Middle East in recent weeks have increased risks to the global energy market, particularly as the region accounts for a significant share of global oil trade. Concerns over potential supply disruptions have pushed oil prices sharply higher in recent sessions. Although oil prices eased following the emergency meeting of the G7, as markets anticipated measures to stabilize supply, overall energy prices remain elevated. Currently, both WTI and Brent crude continue to trade above $80 per barrel, suggesting that risks to the global energy market have not fully subsided. Rising energy prices have also revived concerns that global inflationary pressures could re-emerge, prompting markets to adopt a more cautious outlook regarding the monetary policy path of the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed). In this context, expectations that the Fed may maintain higher interest rates for longer have strengthened. This has supported the U.S. dollar, with the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) rebounding from a recent low near 95.2, at one point climbing close to 99.4, and currently holding around 98.5. On the other hand, the Japanese yen continues to face pressure as energy prices rise. Japan is one of the world’s largest energy importers and remains heavily dependent on Middle Eastern supplies, with around 90% of its oil imports coming from the region (according to Fxstreet). When oil prices increase, Japan’s energy import costs tend to rise, widening the trade deficit and putting downward pressure on the yen. Historically, the Japanese yen has been viewed as a safe-haven asset during periods of global uncertainty. However, recent market developments suggest that this role has become less pronounced. Despite heightened geopolitical tensions, USDJPY has remained at elevated levels, reflecting the dominance of fundamental drivers such as interest rate differentials and capital flows. Nevertheless, market sentiment remains cautious as the exchange rate approaches levels that previously triggered currency intervention by the Japanese government. Japanese authorities have repeatedly signaled their readiness to act if the yen weakens too rapidly, particularly as USDJPY approaches the 160 level, which previously prompted warnings and intervention measures. Looking ahead, USDJPY is likely to remain elevated as the interest rate gap between the United States and Japan remains wide, while the U.S. dollar continues to be supported by higher U.S. Treasury yields and defensive demand amid global uncertainty. However, the risk of currency intervention by Japan, together with the possibility that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) may continue gradually normalizing its monetary policy, could limit the pair’s upside in the medium term. As a result, the near-term outlook for USDJPY is likely to see the pair remain within the elevated 155–160 range, although volatility may become more cautious as markets balance the strength of the U.S. dollar against the potential for Japanese currency intervention.

The two-day festival witnessed enthusiastic music fans gather in large numbers from across the country to celebrate the transcendental power of percussion. From **Umayalpuram K. Sivaraman** to ***Women Who Drum***, a new-age percussionist collective of supremely talented women, the artists carried the legacy of percussion forward with *The Pulse Within* as the central theme. ![Mahindra Percussion Festival Showcases India’s Ancient Rhythms in Powerful Fourth Edition](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/de5gk0qxch.jpg) The first day witnessed a confluence of two generations, with Padma Vibhushan recipient and Sangeet Natak Akademi awardee **Umayalpuram K. Sivaraman** leading **Nada Pravaham Circle of Sound**. With Carnatic-style vocal improvisation from **N. Hariharan**, accompanied by **Ishaan Ghosh** on tabla and drummer **Shravan Samsi**, Sivaraman led the quartet with luminosity and a gleaming act through his mridangam. With 81 glorious years in his career, Umayalpuram and team received a standing ovation, reinforcing that age is just a number. The headlining act by National Award-winning vocalist **Mahesh Kale** was no less of a pilgrimage through India’s spiritual traditions of *abhangas* with his presentation ***YĀTRA***. From Rajasthan to Kashi to Maharashtra, Kale set on to find the meaning of infinite through a musical odyssey. Mahesh Kale’s renditions of bhajans like *Payoji Maine Ram Ratan Dhan Payo* moved the audience, but no one anticipated what came next. In an impromptu moment, Kale was joined by Umayalpuram for a memorable performance, receiving a rapturous applause for this defining moment of day one. ***Women Who Drum*** set the tone for the second day, infusing the spirit of sisterhood into their set on International Women’s Day. Powerful, transcendental, and gritty, the women’s collective combined conga drums, electric guitar, and harp with tabla, thavil, and mridangam, creating a contemporary sound with modern and time-honoured instruments. The festival acted as a bridge to introduce folk and tribal percussion to newer audiences, while sustaining and preserving the musical heritage. Another power-packed performance of day two was that of ***The Parai Awakens by Unreserved Live*** featuring **Praveen Sparsh**. Reclaiming and reinventing one of India’s oldest instruments, *parai,* the performance, with Sparsh’s incredible mridangam and drums presentation, accompanied by *parai* players, gave a new voice to the ancient traditions. After an energetic presentation of the Southern traditions, the closing act consisted of an ensemble led by **Bickram Ghosh** showcasing the percussion heritage of the eastern corridor. ***Drums of the East*** was a rhythmic ode to the sonic traditions of the East with indigenous percussion instruments like *dhaak* and Sreekhol, along with dhol and electric sitar. A packed auditorium saw a pulse reverberating the traditions of the past with a rejuvenated lens, encapsulating the theme this year with a melodic conclusion.

Supported by the upcoming Noida Film City, proposed Olympic infrastructure, expanding industrial clusters, logistics parks, educational institutions, and rising corporate and commercial developments, the corridor is witnessing a structural evolution driven by deep infrastructure investment and sustained economic alignment rather than short-term speculation. ![F1 Circuit Revival Boosts Yamuna Expressway Activity](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/0ydwdpd494.jpg) At the heart of this transformation lies the Noida International Airport. With Phase 1 designed to handle approximately **12 million passengers annually** and long-term expansion planned to scale up to **70 million passengers per year**, the airport is poised to emerge as one of India’s largest aviation gateways. Infrastructure of this scale historically reshapes surrounding micro-markets by catalysing employment generation, corporate movement, hospitality demand, and long-term capital formation. Market indicators are already reflecting this structural shift. **Greater Noida** has recorded **over 20 percent quarter-on-quarter rental demand growth**, among the highest in the country, highlighting strong infrastructure-led confidence and increasing workforce traction. The convergence of aviation scale, global sporting infrastructure, industrial investments, and institutional expansion within a single corridor is steadily redefining the region’s economic profile. Among the few developers strategically aligned with this infrastructure convergence is ACE Group, recognised as one of NCR’s leading real estate players with a diversified and expanding footprint along the Yamuna Expressway. The Group’s **100-acre integrated township**, located within walking distance of the Buddh International Circuit, represents a rare land-positioning advantage in a supply-constrained zone directly influenced by global infrastructure developments. The township begins with **ACE Acreville**, a premium plotted enclave offering buyers the flexibility to design bespoke homes within a master-planned environment. Complementing this is **ACE Verde**, a premium residential development crafted for modern urban living. Integrated within the project is **The Nest**, offering smart studio configurations designed for young professionals, aviation-linked workforce, business travellers, and investors seeking efficient, high-yield real estate assets. Further strengthening the ecosystem is an upcoming large-scale commercial development featuring **fully furnished business suites operated in association with Sarovar Hotels**, a hospitality-backed format aligned with the expected influx of corporate and aviation-linked traffic. For investors, this represents early alignment with a high-infrastructure corridor where capital appreciation is supported by aviation scale, global sporting visibility, and expanding employment ecosystems. Beyond the flagship township, ACE Group has further strengthened its presence through a **68-acre development** comprising **ACE Estate**, a premium plotted offering, and **ACE Edit**, a mixed-use project combining studio apartments with high-street retail. The Group has also expanded the corridor’s commercial and residential ecosystem with **ACE YXP**, positioned as a high-street retail destination catering to the growing residential and commercial catchment, and **ACE Terra**, a premium residential project adding depth to its housing portfolio in the region. With over **15 years of experience**, ACE Group has delivered approximately **18 million square feet across 27 projects** and currently has **over 32 million square feet under construction**, including joint ventures. Its Yamuna Expressway portfolio has crossed **₹5,000 crore in cumulative sales**, reflecting sustained buyer confidence and the company’s disciplined execution capability. **Commenting on the corridor’s evolution, Ajay Chaudhary said:** > *“The revival of the Formula 1 circuit and the rapid progress of the Noida International Airport represent a decisive turning point for the Yamuna Expressway. This is no longer about projected growth — it is about visible momentum and irreversible transformation. When aviation, motorsport, entertainment, and industrial expansion converge within one corridor, they create a powerful economic engine. Our developments were positioned here with long-term conviction, and today that vision aligns strongly with the region’s accelerating evolution. In infrastructure-led markets, timing and positioning are decisive — and the Yamuna Expressway is entering a pivotal growth phase.”* As the Yamuna Expressway moves into its next phase of accelerated expansion, developers who combined foresight with disciplined execution are now positioned to lead the corridor’s next chapter of growth, reinforcing the region’s emergence as a **major economic and investment hub in North India**.

This recognition from one of the industry’s most respected technology analyst firms underscores SonicWall’s accelerating product innovation, expanding platform capabilities and its commitment to delivering cybersecurity outcomes for organizations and their trusted partners who support them. ![SonicWall Named a Leader and Fast Mover in 2026 GigaOm Radar for Enterprise Firewalls](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/a54aggnwkp.jpg) The GigaOm Radar report evaluates enterprise firewall vendors across key criteria, including security effectiveness, performance, management capabilities and innovation trajectory. SonicWall’s placement as both a Leader and Fast Mover reflect not only the strength of its current platform, but the velocity of its advancement in a rapidly evolving threat landscape. > “Being recognized as a Leader and Fast Mover in the GigaOm Radar for Enterprise Firewalls validates the investments we’ve made across our entire security platform,” **said Chandro Prasad, Chief Product Officer at SonicWall**. “Combined with our two consecutive years of perfect threat efficacy in NetSecOPEN independent testing, this recognition affirms that SonicWall is delivering on its promise to provide partners and customers with relentless, high-performance protection they can trust.” **Building on a Foundation of Proven, Independent Validation** The GigaOm recognition builds directly on SonicWall’s landmark achievement in the 2025 NetSecOPEN independent validation testing, in which SonicWall became the only vendor in the industry to achieve a perfect 100% threat efficacy score for two consecutive years. Conducted by the University of New Hampshire InterOperability Laboratory (UNH-IOL) under RFC 9411 benchmarking standards, the testing validated SonicWall’s NS*a* firewall across all major threat categories with all security services fully enabled: **Threat Category** **SonicWall Result** **Public CVE Exploits** **1,380/1,380 (100%)** **Private CVE Exploits** **180/180 (100%)** **Malware Detection** **3,809/3,809 (100%)** **Evasion Techniques** **19/19 (100%)** No other vendor has matched SonicWall’s perfect scores across all categories in consecutive years. Independent analysis also demonstrates SonicWall delivers the best price-to-performance ratio among tested vendors, significantly outpacing all competitors. **A Modern, Partner-First Security Platform** SonicWall’s enterprise firewall leadership is anchored by its broader Security Services Platform strategy, a unified approach to delivering security outcomes across the network perimeter, cloud, and endpoint. Beyond the firewall, SonicWall offers cloud-native Cloud Secure Edge (CSE), Zero Trust access and managed security services through SonicSentry, all centrally managed through SonicWall’s Unified Management Platform. These capabilities enable partners to protect users, devices and data everywhere they operate, from the branch to the cloud to the endpoint. **Industry Momentum** SonicWall’s GigaOm recognition and multi-year NetSecOPEN validation streak reflect a broader wave of momentum across the company. Over the past year, SonicWall has: - Achieved perfect NetSecOPEN threat efficacy for a second consecutive year, the only vendor to do so - Named a Leader and Fast Mover in the 2026 GigaOm Radar for Enterprise Firewalls - Expanded its Secure by Design initiative, reinforcing its commitment to product integrity and customer trust - Strengthened its product portfolio with new firewall and cloud security advancements > “The data is clear, SonicWall protects against more threats, with better performance, at a lower total cost of ownership than the competition,” **said Robert Humphrey, Chief Marketing Officer, SonicWall.** For partners and SMB customers looking for security outcomes they can count on, SonicWall has never been a stronger choice.” [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [Skyhawk Appoints Aaron Deves as Chief Commercial Officer to Lead Commercialization of SKY-0515 for Huntington's Disease](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/skyhawk-appoints-aaron-deves-as-chief-commercial-officer-to-lead-commercialization-of-sky-0515-for-huntingtons-disease/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** *Industry veteran brings more than 30 years of experience launching therapies for neurological diseases, including Huntington’s disease, and will prepare Skyhawk for the launch of SKY-0515 as early as 2027.* BOSTON, Mar 11 — Skyhawk Therapeutics, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel small molecule therapies to modulate critical RNA targets for a series of challenging neurological diseases, announces the appointment of Aaron Deves as Chief Commercial Officer.

Created by Early Bird in collaboration with Roundglass Sustain and Bird Count India, the course arrives at a moment when interest in citizen science and backyard biodiversity is steadily rising. **From Dinosaurs to the Tailorbird Outside Your Window** The course opens with an eye-opening revelation: the fearsome Tyrannosaurus rex and the tiny tailorbird flitting between hedges share a common ancestor, setting the tone for a learning journey that blends wonder with approachable, engaging science. Building on The Wonder of Birds, Early Bird’s popular introductory programme celebrating avian diversity, Into the World of Birds takes learners further. It traces the evolutionary story of birds from their dinosaur origins to the remarkable diversity of species found across India today. Across four thematic chapters, participants explore how Indian birds live and move, where they are found, and what they eat. But beyond science lies skill-building. The course introduces what it calls the “Bird Detective’s Toolkit”, a practical guide to observation, birding by ear, understanding basic taxonomy, ethical birdwatching practices, and engaging with birding communities. > “It’s about stoking curiosity and *building* confidence,” says **Bijoy Venugopal, Course Director.** “We want learners to look more closely, listen more carefully, and build a deeper relationship with the birds around them especially in an Indian context.” **Watching With Intention** Unlike passive wildlife documentaries, the course encourages active engagement. Through short videos featuring striking footage by leading wildlife photographers, interactive quizzes, and hands-on activities, learners are prompted to notice how birds fly, feed, sense the world, and adapt to diverse habitats from wetlands and forests to bustling urban neighbourhoods. The six-hour programme is entirely online and mobile-friendly, allowing participants to watch, pause, replay and reflect at their own pace. For many, that flexibility may be the bridge between fleeting interest and sustained practice. > “At Roundglass Sustain, storytelling is central to this transformation. We believe stories have the power to bring people closer to nature,” says **Samreen Farooqui, Head of Films at the organisation.** “This course weaves visual storytelling into education, inviting learners to observe birds more carefully and connect more deeply with the natural world around them.” **Learning Beyond the Screen** Early Bird, a not-for-profit initiative under the Nature Conservation Foundation, has long focused on bringing young people closer to birds through educator training, content creation and outreach. The new course extends that mission into a format suited for older learners and urban audiences who may have rediscovered nature from their windowsills. Meanwhile, Bird Count India continues to mobilise birdwatchers nationwide — from casual observers to seasoned field researchers generating publicly available data that strengthens conservation efforts. Together, the three organisations signal a growing recognition: that conservation begins with attention. **The First Step Is Looking Up** In a country where rapid urbanisation often distances people from the natural world, birding offers an intimate counterpoint. It requires no expensive equipment, no remote travel — only patience, curiosity, and a willingness to look up. With the Great Backyard Bird Count in February, thousands across India paused to notice the drongo on a wide, the myna in a market square, the kite circling overhead. ‘Into the World of Birds’ offers a chance to extend that pause into a deeper journey, one that transforms a fleeting sighting into sustained observation and interest in the natural world. Because sometimes, becoming a conservationist begins not in a forest, but in your own backyard.

The Union Cabinet has approved important changes to the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy that provide greater clarity around the definition and determination of beneficial ownership, while enabling investments with non-controlling ownership from land-bordering countries of up to 10 percent under the automatic route. The revised framework also introduces an expedited 60-day approval timeline for investments in select manufacturing sectors. The industry body noted that the amendments represent a constructive step toward balancing national security considerations with the need to maintain India’s attractiveness as a destination for global capital. **Ashley Menezes, Chairperson, Partner and COO, ChrysCapital, and Chairperson, IVCA**, said, > “The Government’s decision to refine the Press Note 3 framework is a timely and thoughtful step that balances national security considerations with the need to maintain India’s attractiveness as a destination for capital. By providing clarity around beneficial ownership and enabling automatic route investments where there is a nominal holding, the policy addresses a long-standing concern faced by investors. This will help restore momentum to capital flows into the country.” Since the introduction of Press Note 3 in 2020, investments where the beneficial owner was from a country sharing a land border with India required government approval. While the policy was introduced to safeguard against opportunistic takeovers during the pandemic, its application to cases involving minority and non-controlling investors in global fund structures had created practical challenges for cross-border investment flows. The revised framework now provides clarity for global investors where land-bordering country investors may be present as minority limited partners in diversified global fund structures, thereby easing investment flows from international private equity and venture capital funds. **Rajat Tandon, President, IVCA**, said, > “IVCA welcomes the Government’s decision to refine the Press Note 3 framework and provide greater clarity around beneficial ownership and investment pathways. As the industry body representing India’s alternate capital ecosystem, we believe this is a very constructive step that meaningfully eases operational friction for global funds investing into India. The industry will now examine the benefits of the revised framework, but it is fair to say that the changes already mark a significant improvement for fund structures and cross-border capital flows.” IVCA also noted that the introduction of a defined timeline for approvals in specific manufacturing sectors will help accelerate technology partnerships, joint ventures and supply chain integration, particularly in areas such as electronic components, capital goods and solar manufacturing. Pratibha Jain, Group General Counsel & Head of Strategy, Everstone Group and IVCA member said, > “The Government’s clarification on the Press Note 3 framework is a welcome and pragmatic step. By bringing greater clarity to the treatment of beneficial ownership and minority participation in global fund structures, the revised policy addresses a long-standing ambiguity for the PE/VC industry. This should help facilitate smoother capital mobilisation and investment flows into India’s growing innovation, technology and manufacturing ecosystem.” IVCA expressed its gratitude to the Government of India, including the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), for engaging with industry stakeholders and introducing measures that strengthen India’s investment environment while maintaining necessary safeguards. The association believes that the policy changes will support the continued flow of global capital into India’s startup ecosystem, deep-tech innovation and advanced manufacturing sectors, while reinforcing India’s position as a preferred investment destination.

The appointment marks a significant step in the company’s journey from early execution to large-scale productisation across rural labour markets. ![Bharat Intelligence Appoints Anurag Bisoi as CPO to Systemise and Scale Its Rural Labour Platform](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/ngmnsfyo1p.jpeg) Anurag joins Bharat Intelligence as a seasoned entrepreneur and product builder. He previously co-founded Animall, one of India’s largest dairy technology platforms, where he led product architecture and growth. Under the founding team’s leadership, Animall scaled to over 10 million downloads, digitising a highly fragmented ecosystem of dairy farmers across the country. He built products for low-literacy, vernacular-first users operating in informal markets designing intuitive workflows that drove adoption in some of India’s most underserved regions. The platform went on to raise over ₹200 crore in institutional funding and scale nationwide. Beyond Animall, Anurag has worked at the intersection of product, infrastructure and emerging technology, consistently focusing on building systems that operate reliably in complex, offline-first environments. At Bharat Intelligence, Anurag will focus on converting on-ground execution into repeatable, measurable and scalable product infrastructure. As the company expands across districts and crops, it is transitioning from founder-led operations to deeply systemised product architecture — enabling scale without operational chaos. **Commenting on the appointment, Mr. Azhaan Merchant, said,** > *“Anurag has built for Bharat at scale. Getting to 10 million downloads in a rural, low-literacy ecosystem is not marketing — it is product clarity. As we scale our labour grid across Maharashtra, we need discipline in product design, distribution mechanics, and user simplicity. Anurag brings exactly that.”* **Mr. Gourav Sanghai, added,** > *“We have proven demand, supply and execution capability, so the next chapter for Bharat Intelligence is about scale. Now we must build durable product layers that allow us to scale to lacs of workers and farmers without friction. Anurag’s experience in marketplace architecture and rural product design will be critical.”* **Speaking on his new role, Mr. Anurag Bisoi said,** > *“India’s rural markets do not need more apps. They need products that work reliably, simply and predictably. Bharat Intelligence is building infrastructure for a workforce that has never been formally organised. The challenge is to create systems that are intuitive and can scale without losing trust.”* With this appointment, Bharat Intelligence reinforces its commitment to building disciplined product systems for India’s offline economy — combining operational depth with scalable architecture to formalise one of the world’s largest informal workforces.

The session, held on Day 1 of the conclave, brought together leading voices from finance and policy including Shyamala Gopinath, Former Deputy Governor of the Reserve Bank of India; Nupur Garg, Founder of Winpe; and Sumesh Girhotra, Deputy Head, Capital Team at the British High Commission. The discussion focused on how thoughtful policy frameworks, improved access to capital, and stronger institutional support can help accelerate women-led innovation in sectors critical to India’s sustainable growth. During the discussion, Aparna Thyagarajan emphasised that regulatory frameworks can play a key role in shaping inclusive capital markets and encouraging greater participation of women entrepreneurs, investors, and leaders in emerging sectors such as climate and technology. > *“There is an urgent need for disaggregated data on gender diversity. You can’t fund what you can’t see — the numbers need to be put out there, and disclosure is key,”* she said. She further highlighted that strengthening policy frameworks and improving access to capital could unlock new opportunities for women-led enterprises while enabling innovative solutions in sectors essential for India’s sustainable and technology-driven future. Addressing innovative funding mechanisms, Aparna Thyagarajan noted: > *“SEBI has permitted tranching in a limited manner, and government and large multilateral institutions can come in as junior investors in blended finance structures. Blended structures could be explored as an alternative to raise capital for sustainable enterprises, where the government can take the lead and private markets can follow public capital.”* The IVCA Conclave 2026 marks the **15th edition** of the flagship platform hosted by the Indian Venture and Alternate Capital Association (IVCA). The annual forum brings together policymakers, regulators, investors, and industry leaders to discuss key issues shaping the evolving landscape of alternate capital and investment in India.

Advancements include the addition of new digital payment options to more easily and proactively collect patient payments, and an updated communications package to automate outreach, curb patient leakage, and improve experiences. “Patients increasingly expect a digitally-driven experience with eyecare, specifically in optometry, where they want a retail experience alongside their clinical care,” said Tycene Fritcher, CEO of Sightview. “From tapping their phone to pay for their lenses, to automated text reminders, eyecare providers have an opportunity to modernize processes to improve patient loyalty and experiences, while streamlining backend processes, as well.” The Sightview Pay solution, powered by Global Payments, enables providers to collect payments before an appointment or at time-of-service via digital options like estimated payments, text-to-pay and card-on-file. These expanded payment options allow eyecare providers to capture patient payments faster, speeding cashflow while likewise reducing paper-based bills and patient frustration. Likewise, Sightview Patient Engagement allows providers to personalize and automate outreach to improve appointment volume and patient engagement. Pre-made templates like annual reminders, lens sales, and automated post-service or post-delivery check-ins allow practices to capture patients’ interest while ensuring a positive experience. The system’s automation features mean these new touchpoints won’t add extra work to already burdened staff. Sightview will demo these enhanced offerings in booth #4021 at the show, alongside its integrated EHR/PM platform, purpose-built for eyecare.

It should get better. Sonos Play and Era 100 SL are a clear expression of what Sonos does best — creating products that feel simple on the surface, but are deeply powerful because of the system behind them.” **Two Essential Speakers. One Powerful Sonos System.** **Sonos Play** is the brand’s most versatile speaker with rich stereo sound that’s designed to live at home and move seamlessly beyond it. - **Part of Your Sonos System:** Connect over WiFi to group across rooms or pair for stereo, with a Charging Base to anchor it in your home. - **Portable Listening:** Designed for everyday carry with a removable utility loop, you can listen on the go with 24 hours of battery life in a durable, IP67-rated waterproof design and a built-in power bank to charge your phone. - **Extend Your System Anywhere:** For the first time, group multiple speakers directly from a Bluetooth connection when away from home.

These truck drivers consistently followed traffic rules, maintained lane discipline, and contributed towards making highways safer for all road users. They were honoured with the **“Vishisht Saarthi” recognition certificate** for their commitment to safe driving and adherence to highway safety norms. Disclosing this in a press note issued in the city, Mr. Ajit Bhandari, Founder of LoadsoR one of the local partners who coordinated with the event said the honouring was virtually graced from New Delhi by Santosh Kumar Yadav, Chairman of the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI); Vishal Chauhan, Managing Director of Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL); and Mudit Agarwal, CEO of IHMCL, as it was held simultaneously in five cities across India. The **National Highways Authority of India (NHAI)** is a **government agency responsible for the development, maintenance, and management of India’s National Highway network**. **Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL)** is a **government company responsible for implementing and managing digital toll collection and intelligent transport systems on India’s National Highways**. **The felicitation program was organised** in collaboration with logistics technology platforms **TruckSuvidha** and **Loadsor**, which actively work with driver communities across the country to promote responsible and safer driving practices. **Vishisht Saarthi** is a driver welfare and recognition initiative aimed at supporting and empowering truck drivers and transport workers in India. The programme focuses on improving drivers’ skills, enhancing road safety awareness, promoting better health and welfare practices, and recognising drivers who demonstrate professionalism and responsible behaviour on highways. The initiative trains, supports and honours professional truck drivers to improve road safety and their working conditions. Launched under the leadership of **Nitin Gadkari**, Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, the programme seeks to encourage safe and efficient driving practices, raise awareness about health and welfare issues affecting drivers, and recognise those who consistently follow safety standards and traffic norms. To implement the Vishisht Saarthi programme across the country, the Ministry partnered with five digital logistics platforms, including Hyderabad-based **Loadsor** and New Delhi-based **TruckSuvidha**, along with three others. The Hyderabad event was organised in collaboration with TruckSuvidha and Loadsor, which help conduct driver training sessions, awareness programmes, and welfare initiatives. These platforms were selected because they operate extensive digital freight networks connecting truck drivers, fleet owners and shippers across India. Through these networks, they help conduct driver training and skill-development programmes, promote road safety awareness, support driver welfare and recognition initiatives, and reach thousands of drivers across the country. The event also featured an awareness session for drivers, highlighting important road safety practices and information about emergency assistance available to drivers on National Highways. Through this initiative, the organisers highlighted the vital role played by truck drivers in ensuring safe and efficient transportation across the country, while encouraging the wider driver community to adopt responsible and disciplined driving practices on National Highways. With millions of truck drivers in India facing challenges such as long working hours, health concerns, and limited formal training opportunities, programmes like Vishisht Saarthi seek to professionalise the trucking industry and enhance safety on highways. — [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [InterGlobe Aviation Limited Announces Leadership Transition; Pieter Elbers Steps Down as CEO of IndiGo](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/interglobe-aviation-limited-announces-leadership-transition-pieter-elbers-steps-down-as-ceo-of-indigo/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mar 11:** Pieter Elbers will be stepping down as the Chief Executive Officer of InterGlobe Aviation Limited, the parent company of IndiGo, with immediate effect.

The discussion explored how home-grown capital is reshaping deal dynamics, governance standards, and the long-term resilience of India’s private markets. ![INR 12,000 Cr SRI Fund Supports 750 Plus Firms, Creates 1.6 Lakh Jobs](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/t64xe2jct5.JPG) The panel included Dr Ruchi Chojer, Executive Director, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI); Karthik Athreya, Managing Director, Sundaram Alternates; and Vikram Gupta, Founder and Managing Partner, IvyCap Ventures, with Tejesh Chitlangi, Managing Partner, IC RegFin Legal, moderating the discussion. The discussion explored the growing role of domestic institutional investors and family offices in shaping India’s private markets. Shri Kumar highlighted the importance of strengthening domestic pools of capital to support long-term capital formation, particularly for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and emerging businesses. He noted that a structured and stable domestic investment base enhances resilience across the alternative capital ecosystem.*“Out of the ₹12,000 crore corpus of the SRI Fund, we have already committed more than ₹8,000 crore. Through the funds we have supported over 750 companies, with nine of them already listed on the main platforms of NSE and BSE. The portfolio has created more than 1.6 lakh jobs, including around 26,000 for women, and we also have over 20 women fund managers empanelled with us,”* he said. He also emphasised that government-backed funds and institutional platforms can act as catalysts to draw in private capital, deepen market participation, and improve governance standards. Shri Kumar stressed that sustained collaboration between policymakers, regulators, and market participants is essential to expanding access to finance and supporting sustainable economic growth.*“The SRI Fund is a public–private partnership promoted by the Government of India to support the MSME ecosystem. The government can participate up to 20%, while the remaining capital is mobilised by AIFs from domestic investors, family offices, and overseas investors,”* he added. The discussion also touched upon the role of global partners and domestic limited partners, alongside the different avenues to raise and retain Indian capital. The IVCA Conclave, now in its 15th year, brings together regulators, policymakers, domestic and global investors, and industry leaders to deliberate on the changing dynamics of alternate capital in India, across private equity, venture capital, credit markets, infrastructure financing, and long-term capital formation.

Although the precious metal typically benefits from periods of international tension, its gains have been limited this time by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar and rising U.S. Treasury yields. Investors remain focused on developments in the Middle East and upcoming U.S. inflation data, both of which could shape the market’s short-term direction. Iranian authorities rejected recent remarks made by U.S. President Donald Trump, who suggested that the conflict in the Middle East could end soon. Iranian officials described those comments as “nonsense” and stated that Tehran, not Washington, will determine when the war concludes. They also warned that regional stability will only be possible if security is shared among all countries in the region, reflecting the persistent diplomatic and military tensions. This environment has kept energy markets on alert. Oil prices recovered part of their strong gains after the decline seen in the previous session, driven by fears of potential disruptions to global supply. The main point of concern remains the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most critical maritime routes for global energy trade, through which roughly 20% of the world’s oil consumption normally passes. The rise in crude oil prices has reinforced inflation concerns across the global economy. A sustained increase in energy costs could be passed through to consumer prices, complicating the disinflation process that central banks are trying to achieve. This scenario has prompted markets to reassess the timeline for potential Federal Reserve interest rate cuts. Against this backdrop, U.S. Treasury yields have remained elevated, strengthening the U.S. dollar against other currencies. A stronger dollar typically acts as a negative factor for gold, as it makes the metal more expensive for investors holding other currencies and reduces its appeal as an investment asset. Despite this pressure, gold continues to find some support due to its traditional role as a safe-haven asset. Geopolitical uncertainty, volatility in energy markets, and the possibility of further escalation in the conflict are keeping investors cautious, preventing a deeper decline in the precious metal. At the same time, financial markets are evaluating the broader economic implications of a prolonged conflict in the region. A sustained disruption in energy supply could weigh on global growth, increase production costs, and alter monetary policy expectations in major economies. For now, investors are closely watching upcoming U.S. inflation data, particularly the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index. These indicators will be crucial in determining whether inflation continues to moderate or whether rising energy costs could delay the Federal Reserve’s anticipated rate cuts. In conclusion, the gold market is currently facing opposing forces: on one hand, geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East is supporting demand for safe-haven assets, while on the other, the strengthening U.S. dollar and rising bond yields are limiting its upside. As investors await clearer signals on the conflict’s evolution and the trajectory of U.S. inflation, the precious metal’s behavior is likely to remain closely tied to movements in the dollar and expectations for Federal Reserve monetary policy.

This book is published by Histria SciFi & Fantasy, an imprint of Histria Books encompassing outstanding, innovative works in the genres of science fiction and fantasy. Paphos is a heart-wrenching science fiction novel of first-contact mystery and claustrophobic survival horror set on a world that does not want to give up its secrets. When a small research team touches down on a pristine alien planet, they expect data, samples and maybe a publication or two. Instead, they awaken something ancient, hungry and far more intelligent than they are. Trapped light years from help, cut off from Earth, they become test subjects in a planetary laboratory that rewrites the rules of life itself. Paphos is a story of a single father, a brilliant young girl and the terrifying price of curiosity. Fans of Annihilation, The Last of Us and classic “science team in over their heads” tales will find familiar tropes twisted into something unsettling and new, as humanity’s drive to explore collides with an ecosystem that has its own plans for us. Nick Burnette is an American author specializing in Science Fiction and Fantasy. Raised in a secret society of 80’s movies, he honed a unique blend of adventure, suspense, and imagination—along with a few deadly skills best left in the dojo. When he’s not crafting high-stakes stories of first contact, cyberpunk detectives, and kung fu, he can be found plotting his next twist, exploring the cosmos with a telescope, or debating the finer points of old television series with his wife. Paphos by Nick Burnette, 250 pp., ISBN 978-1-59211-683-6, is available at HistriaBooks.com and from all major book retailers. The book is also available as an eBook. Titles published under the imprints of Histria Books are distributed in the United States and Canada by Simon & Schuster and in the rest of the world through Unified Book Distribution.

Founded in 2019 in Chișinău, the company began with a small team and a clear vision—to build internationally competitive software solutions designed primarily for global markets.

The company broadened its expertise across industries including **FinTech, Banking, Video Streaming, Real Estate, Small Aviation, and E-commerce**. **Organizational Adaptation and Global Portfolio** Operating within a global environment shaped by economic uncertainty and geopolitical challenges, the company has focused on maintaining strong relationships with international clients while optimizing its internal structure. Today, the organization employs **78 specialists** and maintains a diversified portfolio spanning **North America, Europe, and the Middle East**, demonstrating the resilience and competitiveness of Moldova’s IT sector. **Export-Oriented Business Model** From its inception, MoldStud was designed as a globally oriented company. Currently, approximately **98.5% of its business is export-focused**, with only about **1.5% of revenue generated from the domestic Moldovan market**. The company’s client portfolio is geographically distributed as follows: - **~50% USA and Canada** - **40% Europe** - **10% Middle East** Services are delivered to clients in countries including the **United States, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Romania, and the United Arab Emirates**. This global presence is supported by internationally recognized certifications and industry standards, particularly important for sectors such as fintech and healthcare where data security and operational quality are critical. **Expanding Visibility in the Nordic Region** A significant milestone in MoldStud’s international development has been its participation in the **TechStep Sweden** initiative and attendance at **TechArena**, one of the most influential technology events in the Nordic region. With support from the **Invest Moldova Agency**, the company gained exposure to Sweden’s technology ecosystem and new opportunities for partnerships and networking. Although MoldStud had previously collaborated with Swedish partners, participation in TechStep Sweden significantly strengthened its brand visibility and market positioning. **Moldova’s Growing IT Export Sector** The growth of MoldStud reflects the broader expansion of Moldova’s technology industry. In the first nine months of 2025, service exports accounted for **over 47% of the country’s total exports of goods and services**, marking a **15.5% increase compared to 2024** and nearly tripling since 2020. IT services alone recorded **23.2% growth**, reaching approximately **$600 million**, with more than **88% of the sector’s output directed toward international markets**. The IT industry contributes **7.1% to Moldova’s GDP** and employs over **30,000 professionals**. A key driver of this growth has been the **Moldova Innovation & Technology Park (MITP)**, which offers a competitive **7% single tax regime guaranteed until 2035**, along with benefits such as virtual office services and IT visas that support international companies and professionals. **Future Strategy** Looking ahead, MoldStud plans to further strengthen its presence in **North America and Europe**, with a strategic focus on the **Nordic region, particularly Sweden**. The company is also prioritizing the integration of **Artificial Intelligence and emerging technologies** into both internal workflows and client solutions to remain competitive in global markets. > “Our duty is to make the future possible, not to predict it,” added Crudu. As MoldStud continues its expansion, the company’s journey highlights Moldova’s growing capability to deliver **high-value IT services** and compete successfully in some of the world’s most advanced technology markets.

In a market already worth INR 6,96,072 crore, this translates to INR 20,000–25,000 crore in annual margin leakage across the sector. The company will showcase Ask Vantage live at AAHAR 2026, being held from 10–14 March 2026 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. Built directly into Sapaad’s Unified Commerce platform, Ask Vantage allows operators to ask natural-language questions and receive real-time operational insights along with recommended corrective actions. The system continuously analyses live signals across POS transactions, inventory movement, recipes, procurement, labour schedules and delivery channels, enabling managers to intervene during operations rather than after financial reports are generated. **Speaking on the launch, Vishnu Vardhan Madabhushi, Founder & CEO, Sapaad, said:** > “Ask Vantage is a first-of-its-kind innovation for the foodservice industry, and we are proud to launch it at AAHAR today. Restaurants now generate enormous volumes of operational data, yet decision-making often lags because teams still spend too much time interpreting reports instead of acting on insights. In a multi-outlet business, even a 1% drift in food cost or a 2% variance in labour can reduce monthly EBITDA by 2-4% if not corrected quickly. Ask Vantage changes this dynamic by transforming operational signals into real-time, actionable decisions. Within weeks of deployment, we are already witnessing a 1-3% improvement in food cost control and 2-5% optimisation in labour.” Ask Vantage specifically targets margin leakage caused by delayed operational response rather than strategic failure. Even small efficiency improvements compound significantly. For instance, a 2% EBITDA improvement for a restaurant brand generating INR 100 crore in annual revenue can deliver approximately INR 2 crore in incremental profit, while also improving forecast accuracy, reducing variance risk and strengthening operational discipline across locations. Sapaad’s unified platform addresses this challenge by bringing transactions, operations, payments and analytics into a single source of truth, enabling faster decisions and stronger operational control across outlets. Yet despite the sector’s scale and growth, operational decision-making across much of the industry remains slow and fragmented. Sapaad invites restaurant founders, finance leaders, consultants, hospitality professionals and operations heads to experience Ask Vantage live at AAHAR 2026 in Hall 14, First Floor, Booth 14F-12-D, where real operational scenarios-from billing to backend control and from data to decisions, will be demonstrated in real time.

By providing clarity on beneficial ownership and introducing faster approval timelines, the government is signaling its commitment to accelerating India’s electronics growth,” said Chandak. Chandak underscored the importance of strengthening India’s components and materials ecosystem, the “missing layer” in the country’s manufacturing value chain. Key investment areas include **passive components** (MLCC capacitors, resistors, inductors), **connectors and electromechanical components**, **PCB fabrication and materials**, **electronic capital goods**, and **semiconductor supply chain materials** such as polysilicon and silicon wafers. “These segments account for nearly 40% of the bill of materials in electronic products. Expanding local manufacturing in these areas will reduce import dependence, improve domestic capabilities, and integrate India more deeply into global supply chains,” he added. Highlighting market potential, Chandak noted, > “India’s current demand for passive components is estimated at $6–8 billion, connectors around $2–3 billion, and the PCB ecosystem exceeds $6 billion, creating a combined opportunity of $15–18 billion today. As India’s electronics production expands, this could grow to $35–40 billion by 2030.” Chandak also stressed the need for vigilance in ensuring that investments remain **non-strategic and non-controlling**, with strong safeguards on beneficial ownership, board representation, and technology access. “While India should actively leverage global capital and manufacturing capabilities, it is equally important to ensure that no external entity influences strategic decision-making or exerts undue pressure over critical technology sectors. Partnerships must be approached with a long-term national perspective rather than short-term gains,” he commented. Chandak concluded, “Combined with initiatives such as the **ECMS scheme**, these policy refinements can help India build a robust domestic electronics components ecosystem and unlock the next phase of growth in the country’s electronics manufacturing journey.” [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ### [One Inc Appoints Fintech Transformation Leader Bryan Thompson as New CTO](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/one-inc-appoints-fintech-transformation-leader-bryan-thompson-as-new-cto/) **Published:** March 11, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** *Fintech and SaaS veteran with more than 30 years of experience to lead company’s technology initiatives* **FOLSOM, Calif. —** March 11 — One Inc, the leading digital payments network for the insurance industry, today announced the appointment of fintech transformation leader Bryan Thompson as Chief Technology Officer (CTO).

Backed by former MLB players and coaches such as Brady Clark and Damon Mashore, the Ember Hitting Analyzer and Ember Pitching Analyzer are redefining the landscape of baseball and softball training, this time without the barriers of expensive equipment or exclusive training facilities. Expertly designed for accessibility, Ember’s iOS-based Hitting Analyzer delivers instant metrics such as exit velocity, launch angle, bat path and distance directly to players’ phones; no bulky, external hardware required. Meanwhile, Ember’s Pitching Analyzer tracks velocity, flight path and strike zone and offers multi-pitch comparisons to evaluate performance. Integrated video replay, telestrations and side-by-side comparison tools make it easy for players and coaches to break down performance in real time, whether on the field or at home. Where similar products rely on extensive and costly hardware, Ember Sports is pioneering the future of training on users’ mobile devices. The analyzers’ engagement-driven features, including gaming-style progression systems, recruiting profiles and historical data streams, are all designed to fuel continuous skill development and track measurable progress. Instead of using a one-size-fits-all algorithm, Ember built a holistic development system that helps both players and coaches reach their full potential. “Parents invest significant time and money to develop their children into professional players, but for the longest time, professional-grade training tools have been widely out of reach,” said Fred Williams, CEO of Ember Sports. “Our goal is to provide players, coaches and parents with an affordable, data-driven platform that delivers real performance feedback and gives coaches a scalable, modern way to train their athletes in hopes of becoming major leaguers.” With over 25 million youth participating in baseball and softball across the United States, Ember is tapping into a long-overlooked market of players, coaches and parents eager for accessible, professional-grade training.

The partnership reflects a shared ambition to unlock $100 million in enterprise AI deployments as customers move from AI experimentation to production at scale, without sacrificing governance, security, or control. This is especially relevant for regulated industries where choice, security and sovereignty are non-negotiable requirements. Operationalizing AI in production remains a challenge due to the complexity of choices across the stack. By integrating Uniphore’s Business AI Cloud with Rackspace’s private cloud infrastructure, Rackspace will deliver a full-stack secure and governed AI private cloud that includes: advanced inferencing capable of running on both NVIDIA and AMD compute architectures; Data Preparation-as-a-Service; fine-tuned Small Language Models (SLMs)-as-a-Service; and industry-specific AI agents-as-a-Service. “For the first time, enterprises in regulated industries do not have to choose between moving fast on AI and maintaining the governance and control their business requires. Rackspace is taking on that accountability,” **said Gajen Kandiah, CEO of Rackspace Technology**. “We are not just providing infrastructure, we are committing to outcomes, and that changes the nature of the relationship between a technology partner and an enterprise customer.” For enterprises, the conversation has shifted from choosing between GPUs and CPUs, or open versus proprietary Large Language Models (LLMs), to driving measurable business outcomes. Through this partnership, Rackspace brings deep expertise operating private clouds and optimizing public environments, backed by forward-deployed engineers. These forward-deployed engineers, embedded directly in customer environments, are trained on the Uniphore platform and accountable for delivering measurable outcomes from day one. The architecture is designed to extend across hybrid and public cloud environments, ensuring that enterprises with mixed deployment models can access the same governed, outcomes-based AI stack without compromise. The result is an end-to-end governed operating model delivering an outcomes-based service with control, accountability and measurable results. “Business AI Cloud adoption is seeing exponential growth globally due to its sovereign and open architecture and what enterprises are telling us is that they need business outcomes. Rackspace’s adoption of Uniphore’s Business AI Cloud allows our customers to access all five layers of our offering spanning Inferencing, Data, Knowledge, Model, and Agents, on Rackspace’s secure and governed enterprise AI private cloud. For customers looking for sovereign AI solutions, this is a game changer,” **said Umesh Sachdev, CEO and Co-founder of Uniphore.** Rackspace has over 20,000 mid-market and enterprise customers spanning industries such as healthcare, financial services, insurance and others. Additionally, Uniphore will move select enterprise inferencing workloads to Rackspace’s private cloud to deliver a Sovereign AI offering. “This Rackspace–Uniphore deal packs real punch for organizations struggling to get beyond AI pilot mode”, **said David Cushman, Executive Research Leader, HFS Research**. “It couples Uniphore’s ‘get-you-going-fast’ AI platform with a Forward-Deployed Engineer (FDE)-style delivery model and governed private cloud, that gets you to value fast, but with control. That’s something most mid-market organizations simply don’t have and will be particularly welcome in regulated industries.” “While the drive to scale AI across enterprise systems is high, many organizations find their progress stalled by the dual challenges of technical complexity and regulatory compliance,” **said Brian Jones, Chief Information Officer of Valley Medical Center.** “It is a significant milestone to see Rackspace and Uniphore join forces. This partnership can be a game changer for organizations in highly regulated sectors, providing a robust framework to scale AI and extract tangible value from complex data landscapes.” **For customers, this partnership will deliver:** - **From AI pilot to production at scale:** Most enterprises are stuck running AI experiments that never make it to production. This partnership delivers a unified, governed environment spanning infrastructure all the way to agents, enabling the path from pilot to production to be measured in weeks, rather than years. - **Data that is ready for AI:** Most enterprises have data, but not in a form that AI can use. Uniphore’s data agents accelerate modernization, so enterprise data is structured, clean, and ready to power real workflows, without a multi-year transformation program standing in the way. - **Industry-specific AI that teams can easily deploy:** Pre-packaged solutions built on SLMs and agentic workflows provide business teams with a faster path to automation, with governance built in from the start. - **The right compute at the right cost:** Enterprises no longer have to over-provision or lock into a single architecture. Rackspace optimizes CPU and GPU environments, enabling each workload to run efficiently.

Recounting his own entrepreneurial journey, Agarwal said he arrived in Mumbai from Bihar at the age of 19 and built Vedanta from scratch. Over the years, the company acquired major assets including Hindustan Zinc, BALCO, the oil and gas business of Cairn India, and Sesa Goa Iron Ore, with the aim of significantly expanding production. According to Agarwal, Vedanta’s operational turnaround of some of these assets demonstrates what private enterprise can achieve. “We increased zinc production ten times and aluminium twenty times. As a result, more than 1,000 companies have emerged around these value chains,” he said, adding that Vedanta has contributed ₹4.5 lakh crore to the national exchequer in the last decade. Agarwal also outlined ambitious targets for the future. In oil and gas, the company aims to produce one million barrels per day, while in iron ore he envisions production of 100 million tonnes, equivalent to roughly a third of India’s current output. He emphasised that India needs globally competitive mining champions. “Vedanta should be for India what Rio Tinto and BHP are for Australia or Vale for Brazil. And there should be many more Vedantas,” he said. However, Agarwal stressed that policy reforms and a change in regulatory mindset are critical for the sector to flourish. He called for simpler regulations, greater trust in businesses and a shift towards self-certification and audit-based oversight rather than prolonged approvals and litigation. “The system must stop creating hurdles. Businesses need recognition and respect, and the benefit of doubt should go to entrepreneurs,” he said. Highlighting past missed opportunities, Agarwal cited the example of Rio Tinto exiting a diamond project in Madhya Pradesh due to regulatory complexities, saying India lost the chance to become a global diamond production hub. Agarwal also reflected on a personal tragedy his family faced this year, sharing that he drew strength from words of encouragement by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who urged him to stay strong and continue contributing to India’s development. Invoking the values passed down by his grandparents, Agarwal said wealth must ultimately serve society. He added that developing India’s natural resource sector can play a pivotal role in job creation, women’s empowerment and nation-building. “This sector has contributed the maximum revenue to the exchequer globally,” he said. “If we unlock its full potential, it will help India become a developed nation. Let us make India and Indians proud.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [KFON Enables Seamless Bill Payments and Recharges via BBPS-Integrated UPI Platforms](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/kfon-enables-seamless-bill-payments-and-recharges-via-bbps-integrated-upi-platforms/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![KFON Enables Seamless Bill Payments and Recharges via BBPS-Integrated UPI Platforms](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/gxmwo60f5i.jpg) **Thiruvananthapuram, Mar 10:** Kerala Fibre Optic Network (KFON) has reached another important milestone with its integration into the Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS) in collaboration with State Bank of India (SBI).

The Industry 5.0 Index ranks 92 countries on how effectively they are using new technologies such as AI and clean energy, to drive not just productivity and profits, but also societal wellbeing, sustainability, and resilience. If countries make progress across these areas, the shift to Industry 5.0 could unlock up to $1 trillion in additional global GDP annually, beyond the direct revenue and productivity gains that new technologies generate for businesses and economies. The report explains that Industry 5.0 represents an evolution beyond Industry 4.0, emphasizing human-machine collaboration, workforce welfare, environmental sustainability, and resilient systems. The newly launched Industry 5.0 Index, which assesses countries across 30 indicators, positions India at Rank 52 overall, reflecting a nation building strong foundations while rapidly advancing in critical future-ready capabilities. While this overall ranking reflects a broad composite assessment, it does not fully capture India’s strength in AI innovation, where the country is widely regarded as being among the world’s most dynamic and fast-scaling ecosystems. India also ranks above the South Asian regional average across three pillars central to Industry 5.0: Talent (58); Sustainability (61) and Resilience (45). These strengths are reflected in the country’s accelerating AI ecosystem – over $7 billion in private AI investment in four years, 89% of new startups leveraging AI, and the world’s highest worker optimism on AI-driven productivity, with 86% reporting productivity gains. **Sumit Sarawgi, Partner and Head of Oliver Wyman India, said,** “India’s progress across the Industry 5.0 pillars reflects the country’s growing ability to harness technology in a more human-centric and sustainable way. What stands out is the scale and speed at which AI adoption, digital infrastructure expansion, and workforce upskilling are happening simultaneously. These shifts are creating a powerful foundation for India to not only improve productivity but also build more resilient industries and inclusive growth pathways.” > **Borko Handjiski, Partner, Government and Public Institutions Practice, said,** “As countries navigate rising geopolitical uncertainty, accelerating technological disruption, and the need for more sustainable growth, Industry 5.0 provides a blueprint for building stronger and more inclusive economies. India is well-positioned to ride this wave—its scale, digital maturity, and growing innovation capacity give it a unique opportunity to shape the next generation of global value chains.” **Key findings from the report (India):** **India Ranks #6 Globally in Sustainable Trade** - India ranks sixth globally for sustainable trade facilitation - Turant Customs has created a fully digital, paperless, and zero-touch import–export process, significantly improving ease of trade - As China’s share of EU imports declines, India has been steadily gaining ground - The EFTA–India trade agreement (activated October 2025) commits $100B in investment over 15 years, with strong provisions for sustainable development **A National AI Mission Designed for Scale and Inclusivity** - The government has committed $1.25 billion to expand domestic compute infrastructure, accelerate AI research, and scale the IndiaAI ecosystem - India is building a sovereign AI system trained on India-specific datasets to strengthen digital self-reliance - National AI education programs, fellowships, and data labs are being rolled out across Tier 2 and Tier 3 regions, broadening access to future-ready skills **India Gains Strategic Advantage in Global Supply-Chain Realignment** - With BRICS now accounting for over 20% of global GDP, India is emerging as one of the bloc’s most dynamic growth engines India’s resilience, digital infrastructure, and AI-driven capabilities position it as a key destination for global friend-shoring initiatives.

The celebrations commenced on a symbolic and historic note, coinciding with March 10, the **91st anniversary of the release of Joymoti, the first Assamese film directed by legendary cultural icon Jyoti Prasad Agarwala**, widely regarded as the father of Assamese cinema. Marking this significant moment in the cultural history of Assam, the department organised a workshop on documentary filmmaking by noted filmmaker and film scholar **Parthajit Baruah,** followed by an interactive session with internationally acclaimed filmmaker **Rima Das**, whose works have brought global recognition to Assamese cinema. The inaugural session began with a tribute to Assam’s cinematic heritage, featuring the screening of rare archival footage and scenes from early Assamese films such as Joymoti and Indramalati. The audience was also shown a rare visual clip depicting Agarwala’s return from Shillong to Tezpur during the final days of his life, honouring his wish to return to his hometown. The moment served as a moving homage to the pioneer whose artistic vision laid the foundation of Assamese cinema. > Delivering the welcome address, **Prof. Abhijit Bora, senior faculty member of the department**, **highlighted the significance of the occasion**. “Today marks the day when Joymoti was released 91 years ago. To have a day dedicated to filmmaking on this very date is truly special. This is the land of Jyoti Prasad Agarwala, and remembering his legacy through dialogue on cinema is deeply meaningful,” he said. The workshop by Parthajit Baruah introduced students to the craft and practice of documentary filmmaking. The session explored research methodologies, narrative structures, ethical storytelling, and the role of documentaries in interpreting social and political realities. Reflecting on the department’s milestone year, Baruah also praised its academic environment. “The department has completed 25 years and has already produced remarkable journalists, filmmakers and creative professionals. What stands out is the dynamic academic atmosphere and the supportive engagement between students and faculty,” he added. Baruah has directed several documentaries including The Dhemaji Tragedy and the feature film The Nellie Story. He is also the author of significant works on Indian cinema such as Jyotiprasad, Joymoti, Indramalati and Beyond: History of Assamese Cinema and Face to Face: The Cinema of Adoor Gopalakrishnan. In a special moment during the event, filmmaker Rima Das was felicitated for her recent international recognition. Das received the Crystal Bear Special Mention for Best Film at the 2026 Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale) for her film Not a Hero. The award, which had been carried by Parthajit Baruah during his travel in Canada, was formally presented to Das by Prof. Joya Chakraborty, senior faculty member of the department. Later in the day, Rima Das interacted with students in an engaging session where she spoke about her journey as an independent filmmaker and the evolving landscape of regional cinema. Known for internationally acclaimed films such as Village Rockstars, Bulbul Can Sing, and Tora’s Husband, she shared insights into storytelling, filmmaking with limited resources, and the importance of authenticity in cinema. > “I always enjoy interacting with young people. It is wonderful to see the department completing 25 years, and I wish everyone here the very best,**”** **Das said**. Encouraging aspiring filmmakers, she added, “Believe in your story and have faith in yourself.” Das who never attended film school, emphasised that cinema is a universal language and encouraged students to listen to the “quiet voice of their heart” while creating films. Reflecting on the future of Assamese cinema on the global stage, she emphasised the importance of discipline, artistic commitment, and audience support for regional filmmakers. “Even if a film is made on a mobile phone, it can reach the Oscars if the storytelling is powerful. What matters is authenticity and honesty in the craft,” she said. > **Dr. Manoj Deori, Head of the Department of Mass Communication and Journalism**, said the programme marked the beginning of the department’s 25th anniversary celebrations. He noted that launching the celebrations on a day that holds historic significance in Assamese cinema made the occasion particularly meaningful. The sessions witnessed enthusiastic participation from students, faculty members, and research scholars of Tezpur University thereby setting a vibrant tone for the department’s year-long celebrations.

The comparison examined gut health indicators, using constipation frequency as a primary marker of digestive function, to identify year-over-year shifts that may link declining gut health to male hair loss. Behind every data point in this analysis is a man who has stopped taking photos. Who wears a cap to work. Who dreads family gatherings where relatives comment on his thinning hair. For these men, hair loss isn’t cosmetic; it’s a daily erosion of confidence that most treatments fail to address because they never look beyond the scalp. **THE FINDING** Gut health indicators declined across 9 out of 10 major Indian regions. The share of men reporting little or no constipation, a key marker of digestive health shrank consistently across the country. Fewer men report a healthy gut in 2025 than in 2024. The decline is not confined to one region or demographic. It is a national pattern, and it is steepest in India’s most urban and economically active states. At India’s scale, even a two-percentage-point decline across a state represents tens of thousands of men moving from digestive comfort into chronic gut strain. This is not a rural or undernourishment problem. The steepest declines are in India’s most urban, educated, and economically active regions pointing squarely at modern lifestyle as the driver: • Ultra-processed food, made hyper-accessible by 10-minute delivery platforms • Irregular meal timing driven by packed schedules and always-on work culture • Chronic underhydration, especially among working professionals • Stress-linked eating, now normalised as a daily coping mechanism The research identifies two well-established biological mechanisms connecting gut dysfunction to hair loss: **1. Nutrient Absorption Failure** The gut is responsible for absorbing the protein, iron, zinc, and B-vitamins that hair follicles depend on. Hair fibres are approximately 90% keratin, a protein built from amino acids. When gut function is compromised through inflammation, microbiome disruption, or impaired motility these nutrients fail to reach the follicle in adequate quantities. The result is structurally weaker hair and increased shedding. **2. Chronic Systemic Inflammation** A struggling gut can trigger systemic low-grade inflammation that disrupts the hair growth cycle. Under inflammatory stress, hair follicles may shift prematurely from the growth phase (anagen) into the resting phase (telogen). Growth slows, shedding accelerates, and the cycle of visible thinning begins. Additionally, emerging research suggests the gut microbiome may influence hormonal pathways relevant to hair health, including those involving testosterone metabolism. While the precise mechanisms are still being studied, the direction of evidence is clear: gut health and hair health are more connected than most treatments acknowledge. > **Saloni Anand, Co-founder, Traya said**, “Hair loss is not a cosmetic problem. It is the body’s earliest internal warning signal. When the gut is under strain, hair is the first system to react and yet most treatments still only address the scalp. At Traya, we treat the root cause: gut health, nutrition, hormones, and stress alongside the hair.” Traya Health does not treat hair loss as an external or topical condition in isolation. Its diagnostic approach identifies the internal triggers behind each individual’s hair loss, gut dysfunction, nutritional gaps, hormonal imbalance, and chronic stress and addresses them in parallel with topical treatment. This internal-plus-external approach has delivered visible results for 93% of Traya’s users, typically within 5 months validated across its base of treated consumers.

This release enables IT teams to manage Apple TV devices with Scalefusion as part of their broader multi-OS support. Apple TV devices are widely used in business environments for conference room displays, digital signage, and single-purpose kiosks across offices, healthcare facilities, and retail spaces. However, managing these devices has always required separate tools and manual configuration, making it difficult to maintain consistency or deploy changes at scale. Scalefusion‘s tvOS support brings Apple TV management into the unified dashboard, allowing IT teams to set up, secure, and monitor these devices with the same simplicity they’ve come to expect from every other endpoint they manage. IT teams can now deploy and manage Apple TV devices without being on-site. Devices stay configured for their intended use, whether that’s a conference room display or a locked-down kiosk. Security policies apply consistently across all Apple TVs, and updates can be deferred to align with business needs to prevent disruptions. This eliminates the need for separate management tools or manual configuration work that previously made Apple TV difficult to manage at scale. “With support already in place for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, ChromeOS, and Linux, Apple tvOS is the next logical addition to the platform,” **said Sriram Kakarala, Chief Product Officer at Scalefusion.** “Apple TV has become a legitimate part of how businesses operate, but managing it has always been an afterthought. We wanted to change that. IT teams should not have to work differently just because the device is different, and that is exactly what this addition addresse**s,” he added**. Scalefusion‘s tvOS support reinforces what the platform has been built around, giving IT teams a single place to manage every device their organization depends on as that list continues to grow.

Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, representing one in four of all cancers in women worldwide, with India one of the countries worst-hit by the disease. **Dr. Kanchan Kaur, Senior Director, Breast Cancer at Medanta Gurugram, said,** “Regular screening and self-checks for breast cancer are vital because early detection greatly improves treatment outcomes and survival rates. In resource crunch countries like India, self-breast examination is an important tool to pick up breast cancers at an earlier stage.” **A Fabindia spokesperson said, “**We know that behind every garment is a woman with a story, a family, and a future. With this partnership, we are extending a hand of care to our customers, artisans and employees. To further honour the cause, Medanta will officially become one of Fabfamily’s Shared Value Community partners, where our members can redeem their Fabcoins to book Medanta’s services. Over time, the partnership will encompass awareness around other cancer types—prostate, oral, and more—in addition to overall wellbeing.” Together, Medanta and Fabindia aim to build a wider culture of health awareness starting with breast cancer and expanding to broader conversations around preventive healthcare and wellbeing. Through this partnership, both organisations seek to create a meaningful circle of protection that empowers women with knowledge, confidence, and access to care. Fabindia and Medanta will also roll out awareness activations across Fabindia stores in Delhi-NCR, Lucknow, and Patna. One of the key features will be a dedicated “Pink Room”, a specially designed trial room for women which will contain easy-to-understand breast cancer awareness tips, encouraging women to be mindful of their health while engaging in everyday activities.

Secureframe Defense delivers the secure infrastructure deployment, AI-built System Security Plans (SSPs), policies, and comprehensive monitoring that Defense Industrial Base (DIB) organizations need to achieve and maintain CMMC certification faster, without unnecessary cost or complexity. With CMMC enforcement underway, readiness across the DIB remains critically low. The Department of Defense (DoD) [estimates nearly 80,000 organizations](https://secureframe.com/blog/cmmc-deadline-announcement) will ultimately require CMMC Level 2 certification, yet fewer than 800 organizations—less than 1%—have achieved certification as of [January 2026](https://www.cmmc.com/newsroom/cyber-ab-town-hall-01-2026). [Research](https://redspin.com/press/new-redspin-report-finds-lagging-execution-despite-increased-cmmc-awareness-2/) indicates that most DIB organizations spend over a year and $100K–$300K or more preparing for CMMC Level 2 certification by a Certified Third-Party Assessment Organization (C3PAO). Meanwhile, 47% of contractors have already received flow-down requests from prime contractors requiring proof of certification, making readiness urgent for subcontractors at every tier. “Secureframe Defense reflects everything we learned going through our own [CMMC Level 2 ](https://secureframe.com/blog/announcing-cmmc-level-2-certification)assessment and the feedback we received from our partner C3PAOs about the real problems organizations face,” said Shrav Mehta, Founder and CEO of Secureframe. “Our AI-powered platform can take organizations with zero infrastructure to assessment-ready in less than 8 weeks.” From Zero to CMMC Ready with Secureframe Secureframe Defense guides organizations through three critical stages: #### Stage 1: Deploy Secure CUI Environments in Minutes #### Traditional enclave deployments typically take 8–10 weeks and require significant resources from internal IT teams or consultants. With Secureframe, teams can stand up a CMMC-compliant enclave in under 30 minutes. #### The Secureframe platform automatically configures Google Workspace or Microsoft GCC High with all required CMMC controls, including access control, logging and monitoring, and security event notifications, to isolate CUI. Organizations can then auto-provision secure Azure virtual desktops for CUI access in minutes, or use a FedRAMP Moderate authorized, pre-configured device management solution to enforce CMMC baselines across their fleet of laptops and workstations. Stage 2: Document and Manage your Cybersecurity Program Turn the CMMC requirements into an AI-guided implementation workflow with Defense Navigator. After configuring your scope, integrations, and enclave, Secureframe’s AI engine generates SSPs and policies tailored to your exact environment. Built-in modules cover risk assessments, vendor reviews, policy assignments, and security awareness training, with continuous monitoring to flag controls the moment they fall out of compliance. Stage 3: Get and Stay CMMC Certified Secureframe’s Audit Module packages documentation and evidence artifacts automatically for efficient C3PAO review, reducing manual evidence collection and long assessment timelines. Organizations also gain access to the Secureframe network of vetted CMMC Registered Practitioners who can provide additional guidance and a network of vetted C3PAO partners experienced with the platform to complete your assessment. Months Saved, Hundreds of Hours Recovered Secureframe Defense reduces overall certification timelines from 12-18 months down to 4-8 weeks, cutting readiness time significantly compared to manual processes or point solutions. Manufacturing Consulting Company, a defense contractor supporting U.S. Air Force programs, significantly reduced the operational complexity of documenting and monitoring compliance with Secureframe and passed their CMMC Level 2 assessment months before the Phase 1 deadline. “Using Secureframe to get NIST 800-171 and CMMC compliant [saved us at least 500 hours](https://secureframe.com/customers/manufacturing-consulting-concepts),” said David Hoenisch, Lead Cybersecurity Engineer at Manufacturing Consulting Company. “Having a tool that can come alongside and augment your personnel force is a huge blessing. It was a weight off our shoulders.” “Everyone in the defense tech space has to be compliant, but many are relying on manual processes. It’s the peace of mind that Secureframe provides, the continuous monitoring, the fact that we have a system as opposed to a person trying to manage and ensure all of this – that’s the value add for us,” said Stephanie Castro, Director of Operations, Adyton. ## Federal-Grade Credentials, Proven in the Field Secureframe has been recognized by [industry analysts](https://secureframe.com/blog/forrester-grc-platforms-landscape-2025-announcement) and [notable awards](https://www.infoworld.com/article/4104098/infoworlds-2025-technology-of-the-year-award-winners.html) for its cybersecurity compliance excellence, reinforcing its position as a trusted platform for federal customers and other regulated organizations. The company continues to demonstrate its commitment to the federal market and the unique challenges it faces through industry-leading credentials: - CMMC Level 2 Certified: Among the first 0.5% of the ~80K expected Level 2 organizations to [achieve certification](https://secureframe.com/blog/announcing-cmmc-level-2-certification) in September 2025. - FedRAMP 20x Low Authorized: Among the first organizations to be [FedRAMP® 20x Low Authorized](https://secureframe.com/blog/announcing-fedramp-20x-authorization) in August 2025 and one of the few organizations selected for the Phase 2 pilot in January 2026. - 25+ CMMC Registered Practitioners: A CMMC Registered Practitioner Organization [listed in the CyberAB Marketplace](https://cyberab.org/Catalog#!/c/s/Results/Format/list/Page/1/Size/9/Sort/NameAscending?typeId=3) since March 2025.

The half-day gathering focused on how everyday interactions between caregivers and young children can significantly improve early language development and school readiness. The event opened with a presentation by Dost Education on responsive caregiving, highlighting research and insights on how consistent engagement through conversation, play, and emotional connection helps build strong foundations for learning in the early years. Participants also engaged in interactive play sessions that demonstrated simple and practical ways caregivers can incorporate learning into everyday routines. The convening featured two panel discussions addressing key themes shaping early childhood development in the country. The first panel explored how systems and institutions can better support playful parenting and equip caregivers with the tools and confidence to nurture early learning at home as a pathway to school readiness. The second panel focused on shared caregiving and discussed the importance of bringing fathers more actively into the care economy and children’s early learning journeys. Throughout the event, participants emphasized the importance of placing caregivers at the centre of early learning strategies, recognizing that a child’s first classroom is often their home and the everyday moments shared with family members. Dost Education works with families of children aged 0–6 through its Talk, Care, Play framework, providing simple, research-backed tools that help caregivers nurture early language and cognitive development. Through accessible digital platforms such as audio-based parenting support and WhatsApp-enabled engagement, along with partnerships with frontline Anganwadi workers and community circles, Dost continues to expand access to early learning resources for families across India. To date, Dost Education has reached over 5.5 lakh families across 9 states, with a majority of participating caregivers reporting increased engagement in talking, reading, and playing with their children. Many children in these families have also shown measurable improvements in language development. **Richa Shukla, CEO of Dost Education**, said: “Early learning begins in the everyday moments between caregivers and children — in conversation, in play, and in shared curiosity. When parents are supported with simple and practical tools, they gain the confidence to turn routine interactions into meaningful learning experiences. ‘Talk, Care, Play’ is about recognizing caregivers as a child’s first and most important teachers.” The convening concluded with networking and community engagement, reinforcing the importance of collaboration among educators, caregivers, and system leaders to strengthen early childhood development and ensure every child has the opportunity to thrive.

The **National Highways Authority of India (NHAI)** is a **government agency responsible for the development, maintenance, and management of India’s National Highway network**. **Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL)** is a **government company responsible for implementing and managing digital toll collection and intelligent transport systems on India’s National Highways**. **Ajit Bhandari**, Founder of the Hyderabad-based logistics platform **Loadsor,** said that the program was organised by the **National Highways Authority of India (NHAI)** and the **Indian Highways Management Company Limited (IHMCL)** in collaboration with logistics technology platforms **TruckSuvidha** and **Loadsor**, which actively work with driver communities across the country to promote responsible and safer driving practices. ![NHAI & IHMCL Honour Safe Truck Drivers at “Vishisht Saarthi” Ceremony in Hyderabad](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/zw7wkhl98r.jpg) **Vishisht Saarthi** is a driver welfare and recognition initiative aimed at supporting and empowering truck drivers and transport workers in India. The programme focuses on improving drivers’ skills, enhancing road safety awareness, promoting better health and welfare practices, and recognising drivers who demonstrate professionalism and responsible behaviour on highways. The initiative trains, supports and honours professional truck drivers to improve road safety and their working conditions. Launched under the leadership of **Nitin Gadkari**, Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, the programme seeks to encourage safe and efficient driving practices, raise awareness about health and welfare issues affecting drivers, and recognise those who consistently follow safety standards and traffic norms. Referring to the crucial role played by truck drivers in the country’s logistics ecosystem, Union Home Minister **Amit Shah** in the past, at the time of its launch nationally) described drivers as “Saarthi,” meaning guide or driver, acknowledging their vital contribution in keeping India’s economy and supply chains moving. To implement the Vishisht Saarthi programme across the country, the Ministry partnered with five digital logistics platforms, including Hyderabad-based **Loadsor** and New Delhi-based **TruckSuvidha**, along with three others. The Hyderabad event was organised in collaboration with TruckSuvidha and Loadsor, which help conduct driver training sessions, awareness programmes, and welfare initiatives. ![NHAI & IHMCL Honour Safe Truck Drivers at “Vishisht Saarthi” Ceremony in Hyderabad](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7xpuynvnac.JPG) These platforms were selected because they operate extensive digital freight networks connecting truck drivers, fleet owners and shippers across India. Through these networks, they help conduct driver training and skill-development programmes, promote road safety awareness, support driver welfare and recognition initiatives, and reach thousands of drivers across the country. In a programme held at Muthangi ten truck drivers who consistently follow traffic rules, maintain lane discipline, and contribute towards making highways safer for all road users. They were felicitated with the **“Vishisht Saarthi” recognition certificate** for their commitment to safe driving and adherence to highway safety norms. The event also featured an awareness session for drivers, highlighting important road safety practices and information about emergency assistance available to drivers on National Highways. Through this initiative, the organisers highlighted the vital role played by truck drivers in ensuring safe and efficient transportation across the country, while encouraging the wider driver community to adopt responsible and disciplined driving practices on National Highways. With millions of truck drivers in India facing challenges such as long working hours, health concerns, and limited formal training opportunities, programmes like Vishisht Saarthi seek to professionalise the trucking industry and enhance safety on highways.- — [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Bitget Wallet First to Integrate Mercuryo’s Native Apple Pay Feature, Launches ‘Zero-Fees’ Offer Across Suite of Digital Tokens](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/bitget-wallet-first-to-integrate-mercuryos-native-apple-pay-feature-launches-zero-fees-offer-across-suite-of-digital-tokens/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **London, Mar 10:** 11am CET: Global payments infrastructure platform Mercuryo has added native Apple Pay to Bitget Wallet as the leading non-custodial wallet with 90 million users is the first to adopt a feature that makes buying crypto a one-tap experience.

A new Dallas-based initiative is here to help. Team DFW™ is a grass roots initiative through which local small businesses can leverage a set of soccer championship-related programs designed to enable them to both increase traffic in their establishment and build their customer base. The initiative is led by Clients First, a Dallas-based marketing and communications agency, and consists of local experts in disciplines including sports and event marketing, influencer marketing, public relations and digital marketing. An estimated 3.8 million people will travel to DFW to see the 2026 matches, which begin June 11, according to Visit Dallas. The DFW Metroplex is scheduled to host more global championship matches – nine – than any other market in the country. Teams scheduled to play in DFW represent Algeria, Argentina, Austria, Croatia, England, Ghana, Japan, Jordan, The Netherlands, Panama and Tunisia, and will include a European playoff winner. **New programs** Team DFW is offering three programs through which local small businesses can step on to the “pitch” and take full advantage of soccer fever. Team DFW is offering the programs via a menu approach, meaning that local small businesses can sign up for any or all of them. The team will leverage its marketing and communications expertise in disciplines including sports and event marketing, influencer marketing, public relations and digital marketing to achieve each program’s objectives: - **Program #1: “DFW Goes Global with Pre-Tournament Themed Events.”** Team DFW will partner with local restaurants, bars, property management associations and community centers to create and promote themed events based on the teams competing locally. - **Program #2: “Shop Local, Cheer Global.”** Team DFW will partner with shopping venues to organize and promote pop-up shops that celebrate the global community through artisan goods, food and music. - **Program #3: “Go for the GOOOOOAAALLLLLL!”** Team DFW will partner with local businesses ranging from restaurants to bars to property management associations to host and promote fan fest-style watch parties for the 2026 matches. “Team DFW aims to leverage its marketing and communications expertise in order to maximize the revenue potential of local small businesses from this historic sporting event,” said John Clendening, founding principal of Clients First and an assistant professor of Advertising & Brand Strategy at the University of North Texas. “Engaging with businesses and enabling them to have the opportunity to engage in soccer championship-related activities will help ensure all of DFW benefits from this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. “It is important to note that FIFA, global soccer’s governing body, and the local Dallas Sports Commission are doing an incredible job promoting the FIFA World Cup 2026™.

From financial missteps to operational oversights, early errors can jeopardise long-term success. Leading company formation agent [1st Formations](https://www.1stformations.co.uk/ "https://www.1stformations.co.uk/"), which has helped form over 1 million companies, has identified seven frequent startup mistakes and how to avoid them – helping new founders build solid foundations. Graeme Donnelly, founder and CEO of [1st Formations](https://www.1stformations.co.uk/ "https://www.1stformations.co.uk/"), explains: “Even ambitious founders can slip up with simple mistakes. Overlooking cash flow, underpricing services, mixing personal and business finances, or skipping vital contracts may seem minor, but can escalate into serious issues affecting growth and sustainability. “Founders often try to do everything themselves or hire too quickly without clear roles, which creates stress and inefficiency. Taking the time to understand financials, clarify your responsibilities, and ensure compliance can save months of frustration. Avoiding these seven errors doesn’t mean holding back in terms of ambition. It simply means approaching things in a smarter, more structured way from the outset.” **1. Ignoring the numbers** Having a grasp of your finances forms the cornerstone of every business decision. Without regular visibility of income, expenses, and cash flow, small issues like rising costs or late invoices can escalate. Reviewing finances weekly, using bookkeeping software, and leaning on the knowledge of an accountant can prevent costly surprises and help you make confident decisions. **2. Underpricing your offer** Setting prices based on instinct or fear of losing customers can lead to long hours with little reward, as well as possible burnout and unsustainable growth. To avoid this, factor in all costs, including labour, tools, insurance and tax, then add a realistic profit margin. Test pricing early and review it every six to twelve months to protect your margins and stay credible. **3. Mixing personal and business finances** Combining personal and business transactions complicates bookkeeping and can make it hard to see where the business is actually profitable. Opening a dedicated business account, paying yourself consistently, and keeping accurate records ensure clarity and prevent overspending. **4. Skipping contracts and legal protections** Relying on verbal agreements leaves businesses vulnerable to disputes and missed payments. Written contracts, signed agreements, and intellectual property protections can help safeguard revenue and reputation. Store agreements securely and seek legal advice for complex arrangements to minimise risk. **5. Hiring too quickly** Bringing staff on before your business is ready increases fixed costs and operational pressure. If roles are unclear, efficiency suffers, and turnover rises. Hire only when revenue allows, define roles clearly, begin with part-time or contract positions, and prioritise adaptability as much as experience to ensure a robust team structure. **6. Neglecting market research** Failing to understand customer needs and competitor strategies can lead to products or services that don’t solve real problems. Conduct surveys, speak to potential customers, study competitor pricing, and validate assumptions early. Research helps position your offering effectively and reduces wasted time and resources. **7. Overpromising and underdelivering** Saying yes to every request may feel like good service but can damage trust if expectations aren’t met. Set achievable timelines, be honest about what’s included in your services, and communicate early if plans need to change. Underpromising and overdelivering helps build strong, long-term client relationships.

Hexaware scored 83 out of 100 as of February 11, 2026. Inclusion in the Yearbook is not automatic. Of more than 9,200 companies assessed in the 2025 CSA, only 848 across 59 industries made it in. To qualify, companies must score within the top 15% of their industry and within 30% of the top-performing company in that industry. The assessment covers environmental, social, and governance performance, evaluated against industry-specific criteria that reflect what matters most in each sector. For Hexaware, this is a recognition that its approach to sustainability is holding up under rigorous external scrutiny — not just in intention, but in how the business is run. > **R Srikrishna, CEO and Executive Director, Hexaware**, said: “For us, sustainability is about how we build the company for the long term — how we operate responsibly for our clients, invest in our people, and manage the business in a way that holds up to scrutiny. Being included in the S&P Global Sustainability Yearbook, and in the top decile of our industry, tells us we are on the right track.” > > **Uma Thomas, Chief Risk Officer, Hexaware**, said: “A score like this is the result of how seriously we take governance and risk management as ongoing disciplines, not just at assessment time. It reflects the work that goes into making our sustainability commitments auditable, traceable, and honest, and that is something we hold ourselves to across the business every day.” Hexaware will continue to improve its performance across all dimensions of the CSA as it advances its sustainability agenda, making it a core part of how the company grows, not an afterthought.

Food distributors move hundreds of billions of dollars in perishable inventory each year, yet much of the operational work that keeps product flowing remains manual. Anchr believes that is where AI should be applied next. Today, the company announced a $5.8 million seed round backed by a16z Speedrun, Anterra Capital, Offline Ventures, Long Journey Ventures, and leaders from Open AI to build the first end-to-end AI-native operating system purpose-built for food distribution. The gap is structural. Most distributors rely on ERP systems built to record what already happened, not to guide what should happen next. They log transactions but do not inform purchasing decisions, optimize inventory in real time, or surface margin risk before it materializes. eCommerce platforms such as Choco and Pepper digitize customer ordering but stop at the surface. They do not address purchasing, reconciliation, or margin intelligence, and in some cases intensify price competition in ways that disadvantage regional distributors. The result is a patchwork of tools that document activity without holistic context, adding to the operational complexity rather than alleviating it. Anchr sits on top of the existing stack and turns it into a system of action. Rather than replacing the ERP, it embeds AI teammates across order intake, purchasing, inventory planning, invoicing, collections, and more. Workflows that previously required hours of manual intervention now execute automatically, with full context carried from one step to the next. > “The biggest opportunity to leverage AI isn’t in industries with modern infrastructure,” said **Tzar Taraporvala, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Anchr**. “It’s buried deep in the operational backbone of the economy. Food distributors manage millions of dollars of inventory with systems that were never designed to handle today’s complexity. We built Anchr to become the intelligent layer that works alongside teams every single day, automating away the tedious, unsexy parts of the job to create truly material value for a margin-strapped business.” The company was born inside the problem it aims to solve. Co-Founders Tzar Taraporvala and Smayan Mehra, who have been building together for more than two decades, began exploring supply chain inefficiencies after seeing how disconnected legacy infrastructure remained. The turning point came when they partnered with a Boston-based seafood distributor, and spent months mapping workflows on the factory floor. Orders were manually keyed into ERPs at 3 a.m. Purchasing decisions relied on fragmented spreadsheets. Finance teams reconciled invoices across disconnected systems. The pain was structural, daily, and expensive. Today, Anchr’s impact shows up in measurable ways. One early customer reclaimed roughly 40 percent of daily working time across a team of eight sales representatives by automating order intake from texts and emails. Another distributor reduced aged inventory write-offs by $30,000 in one month through improved purchasing decisions informed by live demand signals. A customer is on track to increase average basket size by approximately $65 per order across 4,000 annual orders by using AI to scrape menus and catalogues to surface upsell opportunities. In a business operating on low single-digit margins, incremental gains compound quickly. The traction reflects that urgency. In just 12 weeks of Speedrun, Anchr booked seven figures in revenue, with customers ranging from regional distributors to a $5 billion publicly traded enterprise. > “If the first era of enterprise software digitized record-keeping, we believe the next era will automate it. We call that shift Enterprise Resource Automation (ERA) – and Anchr is building this inevitable operating layer” concludes **Smayan Mehra, Co-Founder and Co-CEO, Anchr.** Looking ahead, Anchr plans to deepen automation across every operational layer of a distributor, becoming the coordination system that touches every decision that moves product or capital. Over time, this creates the foundation for an AI-native system of record built on the real work that happens in these organizations. Beyond food, the company sees the same opportunity anywhere physical goods move through fragmented supply chains. > “The magic here is compounding: when sales, purchasing, inventory, and finance share context, the whole business runs differently. Anchr is building an AI-native operating layer that turns fragmented steps into an integrated workflow and the early customer outcomes show what that unlocks,” said **Troy Kirwin at a16z Speedrun** [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Tech Startup Hosel Takes Swing at Global Second-Hand Golf Equipment Market](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/tech-startup-hosel-takes-swing-at-global-second-hand-golf-equipment-market/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **EDINBURGH, Scotland, March 10** — Golf tech startup Hosel is aiming to take a swing at a global second-hand club, equipment, and accessory market valued at $3 billion. With a growing trend for golfers seeking “nearly new” golf clubs, Hosel’s platform helps golfers compare, buy and trade pre-owned clubs from trusted sellers in a market dominated by non-specialist behemoth players like eBay and characterised by issues around pricing, quality of product, and counterfeit goods. As resale becomes increasingly core in retail, and in many cases outstrips the primary market, Hosel plans to modernise golf resale with a modern approach to pricing, authentication, fulfilment, and customer experience. Launching in the UK where there are estimated to be around 5 million golfers, Hosel sees the US and its almost 30 million golfers as its major target market going forward. Hosel, named after the socket that connects the shaft to the club head, aggregates thousands of pre-owned golf clubs from trusted sellers on a single, searchable site, enabling golfers to compare pricing across sellers, buy with authenticity guaranteed, trade in clubs with confidence, and quickly understand fair market value. London-based Ascension VC has led a pre-seed £500,000 investment round, with a further institutional round and US expansion planned later this year. Hosel’s Co-founder and CEO Andrew McGinley previously founded, scaled, and exited care marketplace Care Sourcer, before going on to support and mentor hundreds of founders across the Scottish tech ecosystem as an Entrepreneur in Residence at CodeBase. Co-founder and CTO Charles Harley contributed to app development for Scottish unicorns Skyscanner and FanDuel, before joining FanDuel post acquisition, going on to work alongside McGinley at Care Sourcer. CEO Andrew McGinley said: “Essentially, Hosel is about bringing trust and price transparency to golf resale, which is seriously lacking as things stand. Second-hand golf shouldn’t feel like the Wild West, and by aggregating trusted sellers Hosel is going to be much better for golfers and the overall long-term health of the game.” CEO McGinley added: “Golf is an amazing game, but one of the greatest barriers is cost. Whether you’re building your first bag, upgrading your driver, or trading clubs you no longer use, everyone should be able to access the game at a fair price.” Toyosi Ogedengbe, Principal, Ascension, said: “Hosel sits at the intersection of two powerful trends: the structural growth of golf participation and the mainstream shift towards recommerce. As avid golfers who experienced the status quo – fragmented sellers, price opacity and a poor customer experience – Andrew and Charles decided to build the infrastructure required to capitalise on this £2 billion plus market opportunity. We’re excited to back them early in what we believe is the Vinted for golf.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [Organ Donation Gives New Lease of Life to 54-Year-Old Woman Through Kidney Transplant at Manipal Hospital Mukundapur](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/organ-donation-gives-new-lease-of-life-to-54-year-old-woman-through-kidney-transplant-at-manipal-hospital-mukundapur/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai/Kolkata, Mar 10:** Highlighting the life-saving impact of organ donation, doctors **at Manipal Hospital Mukundapur** successfully performed a kidney transplant on a 54-year-old woman suffering from advanced kidney disease, after receiving an organ from a brain-dead donor.

The report presents a comprehensive examination of India’s current approach to crypto-assets and outlines a structured framework for regulation aimed at balancing innovation, investor protection and financial stability. ![Gujarat National Law University (GNLU) launches Report on ‘Crypto-Assets in India: Assessing the Case for Regulation’](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/kuycvy1p2s.jpeg) The report underscores that India is at a critical juncture in shaping its regulatory architecture for digital assets. While the government has introduced certain fiscal and compliance measures in recent years—such as the taxation of virtual digital assets and the extension of anti-money laundering obligations to crypto intermediaries—the absence of a dedicated statutory framework continues to create regulatory ambiguity for market participants. The study argues that a coherent and forward-looking regulatory regime is essential to ensure that India remains competitive in the rapidly evolving global Web3 ecosystem. The report puts forth various models of regulation by different existing regulators, along with a new model of self regulation under government oversight till the time a robust regulatory ecosystem is established. The launch event brought together senior members of the judiciary, leading legal practitioners, policy experts and representatives from the digital asset industry to deliberate on the future trajectory of crypto regulation in India. ![Gujarat National Law University (GNLU) launches Report on ‘Crypto-Assets in India: Assessing the Case for Regulation’](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/l1nx25e5wh.jpeg) The event was attended by Justice Hima Kohli, Former Judge of the Supreme Court of India, who shared her views on the evolving legal and regulatory landscape surrounding digital assets. Other distinguished speakers at the event included Justice M. R. Shah, Former Judge of the Supreme Court of India; Justice Ravi Tripathi, Former Judge of the Gujarat High Court; Dr. Lalit Bhasin, President of the Society of Indian Law Firms (SILF); and Prof. (Dr.) S. Shanthakumar, Director of Gujarat National Law University. Justice Hima Kohli, Former Judge, Supreme Court of India, said, “Crypto assets illustrate the broader challenge that legal systems face when technological innovation evolves faster than legislative processes. Today, with the global crypto market exceeding $2.4 trillion and India emerging as one of the largest markets with millions of users, the policy debate is no longer about whether such technologies should exist but about how they should be regulated. The task before policymakers is to craft a balanced framework that protects financial stability, ensures investor protection and transparency, while allowing innovation in blockchain and digital technologies to continue.” Justice M. R. Shah, Former Judge, Supreme Court of India, said, “With nearly 12 crore Indians already investing in crypto assets, it is no longer possible to simply ignore this sector. In a globalised digital economy, attempts to stop such technologies are neither practical nor effective. The real need is for a clear regulatory framework that ensures transparency, prevents misuse and protects the interests of investors. The government’s decision to tax income from virtual digital assets is an important first step, but comprehensive regulation will be essential to strengthen confidence in this emerging ecosystem.” Justice Ravi Tripathi, Former Judge, Gujarat High Court, said, “In an era where technology is rapidly transforming society and the economy, institutions cannot afford to ignore emerging developments such as crypto assets. Academic institutions have an important role to play in studying such complex issues and contributing thoughtful recommendations to policymakers. Initiatives like this report demonstrate how research and informed dialogue can help shape regulatory thinking on technologies that already exist and are increasingly influencing economic activity.” Prof. (Dr.) S. Shanthakumar, Director, Gujarat National Law University, said, “What began as a classroom discussion on a regulatory grey area eventually evolved into a national research initiative. With nearly 12 crore Indians engaging with crypto assets despite the absence of a comprehensive regulatory framework, we felt it was important for academia to contribute to the policy conversation. Through stakeholder consultations in Bengaluru, Mumbai and Delhi involving developers, exchanges, regulators and legal experts, the university sought to understand the technology and its challenges. The report ultimately presents five possible regulatory models, leaving policymakers with practical options to consider while shaping India’s approach to crypto regulation.” ![Gujarat National Law University (GNLU) launches Report on ‘Crypto-Assets in India: Assessing the Case for Regulation’](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/9ligj7s9bw.jpeg) Drawing on comparative regulatory models and global policy developments, the report highlights that several major economies have moved toward clear regulatory frameworks for crypto-assets. It notes that the absence of a comprehensive domestic framework in India has contributed to regulatory uncertainty, with implications for capital flows, industry development and technological innovation. The report calls for a calibrated regulatory approach that combines institutional oversight with coordinated participation from relevant regulators. It recommends a framework that strengthens consumer protection, addresses risks relating to financial stability and illicit finance, and simultaneously supports the development of blockchain-based innovation within India. The project was guided by an eminent advisory board comprising Justice M. R. Shah, Former Judge of the Supreme Court of India; Justice Ravi Tripathi, Former Judge of the Gujarat High Court; Rajkumar, Former Chief Secretary, Government of Gujarat; J. P. Gupta, Former Additional Chief Secretary, Government of Gujarat; Dr. Keshav Kumar, Former DGP and Director, Anti-Corruption Bureau; Senior Advocate N. S.

The project was completed on the Stena Britannica, a passenger and roll-on/roll-off cargo vessel operated by Stena Line, one of the world’s largest ferry companies, at the EDR Antwerp shipyard in Belgium. The team applied PPG SIGMAGLIDE**®** 2390 fouling release coating, a silicone-based, biocide-free solution, using the electrostatic application method. The application technique uses an electrostatic spray gun to guide coating particles onto a grounded metal surface, delivering even coverage and uniform film layers that help enhance smoothness and fouling control performance. Compared to traditional airless spray methods, electrostatic application improves paint transfer efficiency and significantly reduces overspray, material waste and carbon emissions. “In an industry that makes up 3% of global greenhouse gas emissions, we take responsibility for our impact on the environment. Our target is to reduce CO2 emissions from our vessels by 30% by 2030, based on a 2019 baseline,” said Dennis Tetzlaff, chief operating officer, Fleet, at Stena Line. “We are taking substantial steps to drive down our carbon footprint and decrease any negative impact on biodiversity. Collaborating with partners like PPG allows us to adopt solutions that help address global challenges.” Electrostatic application also offers Scope 3 carbon life cycle savings compared to traditional application methods, since fewer raw materials need to be extracted, manufactured or transported. These reductions are in addition to the operational carbon savings achieved by vessels coated with high-performance, low-friction solutions such as PPG *Sigmaglide* 2390 coating, which help ship owners reduce fuel consumption and Scope 1 emissions. “This 200th electrostatic application milestone demonstrates how industry collaboration can drive real sustainability progress in marine coatings,” said Jan Willem Tegelaar, PPG global marine platform director, Protective and Marine Coatings. “Working with Stena Line from the start of this journey, we have delivered solutions that help shipyards and operators reduce both operational and embodied carbon footprints. With our premium hull-coating technologies, such as the PPG *Sigmaglide* 2390 coating designed for electrostatic application, PPG is the only marine coatings provider offering both types of carbon-reduction benefits in one integrated solution.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** technology --- ### [Addressing India’s vertigo challenge, NeuroEquilibrium expands specialised clinics in Gurugram](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/addressing-indias-vertigo-challenge-neuroequilibrium-expands-specialised-clinics-in-gurugram/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Addressing India’s vertigo challenge, NeuroEquilibrium expands specialised clinics in Gurugram](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/wdctjo9qwt.jpeg) In India, nearly six crore people suffer from vertigo and balance disorders, yet many are misdiagnosed or managed only with symptom-suppressing medication instead of addressing the root cause. FutureCure Health Private Limited, a super-speciality healthcare provider, is working to bridge this gap by expanding access to evidence-based care for vertigo and balance disorders through its wholly owned subsidiary, NeuroEquilibrium, which focuses on accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment of these conditions. While most approaches treat symptoms, NeuroEquilibrium – the world’s largest chain of vertigo clinics – identifies the root cause of vertigo — whether in the inner ear, brain, or balance system — so the treatment is targeted, not temporary. **Working closely with hospitals, ENT clinics, and neurology centres, NeuroEquilibrium has diagnosed and treated over 150,000 patients, significantly improving long-term outcomes.** > **Dr. Anita Bhandari, Founder, FutureCure Health, added:** “Vertigo/dizziness is often misdiagnosed, leaving patients untreated for years. Our work with more than 150,000 patients proves that accurate diagnosis changes outcomes.” NeuroEquilibrium currently operates nine clinics in Gurugram, covering Sector 28 (DLF Phase 1), Sector 56, Sushant Lok 2, South City 1, Sector 51, Sector 38, New Railway Road, Sector 90, and Palam Vihar. FutureCure Health recently raised Rs 104 crore in a completed funding round, led by Carnelian Asset Management LLP and other investors. The fundraising follows an earlier USD 4 million round in 2022 backed by Kotak Alternate Asset Management, RVCF Ventures, and Unicorn India Ventures. > **Rajneesh Bhandari, Founder, FutureCure Health, said: “**This funding has reinforced our conviction that globally relevant healthcare technologies can be built in India. As we scale NeuroEquilibrium across hospitals in India and international markets and expand into chronic lifestyle diseases such as migraine and diabetes, our focus is on using technology to bridge the shortage of specialist doctors. Precise, scalable diagnostics can democratise super-speciality healthcare and act as a true force multiplier for better outcomes.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** health --- ### [ACA Group Acquires FX Transparency to Boost FX TCA Capabilities](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/aca-group-acquires-fx-transparency-to-boost-fx-tca-capabilities/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **NEW YORK, March 10** — ACA Group (ACA), the leading governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) advisor in financial services, today announced it has acquired FX Transparency (FXT), a market-leading provider of foreign exchange (FX) transaction cost analysis (TCA) and best execution analytics.

The new television commercial highlights how ACPs, widely used across building façades and interiors, can become a potential safety risk when material claims remain unverified if they lack adequate fire-retardant or fire-resistant properties. Through a sharp, on-site narrative, the film reinforces the campaign’s central thought that materials that claim to be fire-retardant or fire-resistant must first be tested to be trusted. The campaign also reinforces Aludecor’s long-standing emphasis on rigorous product validation, with its ACP panels undergoing 205 performance and durability tests across parameters such as fire reaction, weathering, adhesion strength and environmental resistance before reaching the market. ACP panels are used extensively in modern architecture for façades, signage and interiors, making their performance under fire conditions a critical safety consideration for architects, builders and façade consultants. Strengthening this movement, India’s premier institutions, the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi and IIT Roorkee, have collaborated with Aludecor to enable independent third-party testing of ACP samples at their laboratories. The initiative allows architects, builders and fabricators to submit ACP samples for testing, including panels from any brand, introducing an additional layer of scientific validation to material performance claims. The film highlights how reliance on unverified material claims can lead to serious safety risks, reputational damage for contractors and fabricators, and costly consequences for building stakeholders. With façade-related fire incidents drawing increased attention to material performance, the campaign positions testing as an essential step in responsible construction. The communication is supported by Aludecor’s **industry-first free testing initiative**, which allows architects, builders and fabricators to submit ACP samples for fire safety evaluation. The initiative also provides open access to the company’s advanced R&D centre, which houses a **NABL-accredited in-house reaction-to-fire testing laboratory**, enabling structured and transparent material testing. To ensure neutrality and credibility, all testing will be conducted in a **brand-blind and anonymised format**, where the testing teams are not informed about the brand, customer or project associated with the sample. This ensures that the results reflect only the true performance of the material under fire testing conditions. > Commenting on the campaign, **Ashok Kumar Bhaiya, Founder & CMD, Aludecor**, said: “Through this campaign, we want to bring fire safety into sharper focus and encourage the industry to adopt a culture of testing before trust. When materials are tested independently and transparently, it builds confidence, protects reputations, and most importantly, safeguards lives. This film is also an extension of our more than 7-year-old #BeatTheFire campaign, through which we have been working to sensitize the industry to the importance of using fire-safe materials in construction.” The film is part of a broader multimedia rollout across television and digital platforms, supported by industry outreach and engagement with fabricators and construction stakeholders. Through this campaign and its testing initiative, Aludecor aims to encourage a shift towards informed material choices and stronger fire safety standards in the built environment.

The surgery is believed to be the first of its kind in the world to be performed using a laparoscopic approach. According to Dr. Naveen Kumar CH, Consultant Surgical Gastroenterologist at KIMS Hospitals, Kondapur, the patient had undergone a kidney transplant earlier and was on three types of immunosuppressive medications. During follow-up evaluation, the patient was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Considering the condition, the medical team decided to perform a laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (Whipple’s surgery). However, the procedure was particularly challenging due to several existing medical complications. The patient also had polycystic liver disease, a large cyst in the transplanted kidney, and had previously undergone open bilateral nephrectomy, making the surgery technically demanding. Another major challenge was the involvement of the Superior Mesenteric Vein (SMV), a crucial blood vessel supplying the intestines and liver. During the procedure, the surgical team successfully performed the laparoscopic Whipple’s surgery along with resection and repair of the affected segment of the SMV. > “Laparoscopic vascular resections are performed in only a few centres worldwide. Performing a major pancreatic surgery in a patient on immunosuppressive therapy is extremely risky, with reported mortality rates of up to 50 percent in some cases. Therefore, the surgical team also ensured meticulous post-operative care,” **Dr. Naveen Kumar said.** He further added that while a similar case had previously been reported at the Mayo Clinic in the United States, it was performed using an open surgical approach. > “This is the first time in the world that such a complex procedure has been performed using a laparoscopic technique,” **Dr. Naveen Kumar stated.** Doctors at KIMS Hospitals said the successful surgery highlights the growing capabilities of Hyderabad as a major medical hub and reflects the hospital’s expertise in handling rare and high-risk surgical cases.

Known for its scenic beaches, lush rice terraces, and vibrant cultural traditions, the island has long been one of the most visited travel destinations in Southeast Asia. Tourism has always played a crucial role in Bali’s economy, supporting thousands of businesses and providing employment across multiple sectors. In recent years, however, Bali’s tourism industry faced unprecedented challenges due to global travel disruptions. As international travel gradually resumed, the island has been experiencing a strong tourism revival. Today, Bali is rebuilding its travel economy with renewed energy, supported by growing international arrivals, expanding hospitality infrastructure, and increasing investment in sustainable tourism. ### Tourism: The Backbone of Bali’s Economy Tourism is the primary economic driver for Bali and contributes significantly to Indonesia’s travel sector. Before global travel restrictions affected international tourism, Bali welcomed millions of visitors each year from countries across Asia, Europe, and Australia. The island’s tourism industry supports a wide range of sectors including hospitality, transportation, retail, entertainment, and local crafts. From luxury resorts and boutique hotels to small family-owned restaurants and artisan markets, tourism generates income for thousands of businesses across the region. As visitor numbers gradually return, these businesses are seeing renewed demand, helping revive economic activity throughout the island. ### Hospitality Industry Leading the Recovery One of the sectors benefiting the most from Bali’s tourism revival is hospitality. Hotels, resorts, and villas across popular destinations such as Seminyak, Ubud, and Kuta have begun welcoming increasing numbers of international travelers. Many hospitality providers are also upgrading their services to meet the expectations of modern travelers. Digital booking systems, personalized guest experiences, wellness tourism, and eco-friendly accommodations are becoming increasingly common across Bali’s tourism landscape. This renewed focus on quality experiences is helping Bali remain competitive among global travel destinations. ### Boosting Local Businesses and Communities Tourism in Bali extends far beyond hotels and resorts. The industry supports countless small and medium-sized enterprises, including restaurants, tour operators, handicraft shops, transportation services, and cultural performance groups. Local markets selling handmade crafts, traditional textiles, and souvenirs attract visitors looking for authentic Balinese products. Meanwhile, restaurants and cafés serve a mix of local cuisine and international dishes, catering to a diverse global audience. The revival of tourism has therefore brought significant relief to local communities that rely heavily on visitor spending for their livelihoods. ### Rise of Digital Nomads and Long-Stay Tourism Another trend contributing to Bali’s tourism recovery is the growing popularity of remote work and digital nomad lifestyles. Many professionals from around the world are choosing Bali as a temporary base because of its affordable living costs, strong internet infrastructure, and attractive lifestyle. Areas like Canggu have become hubs for remote workers, entrepreneurs, and freelancers who combine work with travel. Co-working spaces, creative communities, and digital-friendly cafés have emerged to cater to this new wave of long-term visitors. This trend is helping Bali diversify its tourism economy beyond traditional short-term vacations. ### Sustainable Tourism and Environmental Initiatives As Bali rebuilds its tourism industry, sustainability has become an important focus. Local authorities and tourism stakeholders are working to promote responsible tourism practices that protect the island’s natural beauty and cultural heritage. Efforts include reducing plastic waste, encouraging eco-friendly accommodations, and promoting community-based tourism experiences. By balancing economic growth with environmental protection, Bali aims to create a more sustainable tourism model for the future. These initiatives not only preserve Bali’s natural attractions but also appeal to environmentally conscious travelers. ### A Bright Future for Bali’s Tourism Economy The recovery of Bali’s tourism industry demonstrates the resilience of one of the world’s most iconic travel destinations. With increasing visitor arrivals, growing hospitality investments, and new travel trends such as digital nomadism, the island is steadily rebuilding its travel economy. For Indonesia, Bali remains a vital tourism gateway that attracts international attention and generates significant economic activity. As the island continues to innovate and adapt to changing travel patterns, its tourism sector is poised to grow stronger in the years ahead. Bali’s revival highlights how tourism, when supported by strong infrastructure and sustainable practices, can play a powerful role in driving regional economic development while preserving cultural and natural heritage. **Categories:** travel --- ### [Deep Fission Kicks Off Historic Borehole Drilling for First-of-a-Kind Nuclear Project](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/deep-fission-kicks-off-historic-borehole-drilling-for-first-of-a-kind-nuclear-project/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **PARSONS, Kan., March 10** — Deep Fission, Inc.

Top devices sold by women include flagship variants like the iPhone 16 Pro, 17 Pro Max, and 15 Pro, clearly challenging outdated assumptions around gender and technology adoption. **Premium Participation Extends Beyond Metros** Purchase behavior is led by major urban centres, with nearly 48% of women users concentrated across the top 10 cities. Delhi emerges as the largest contributor, followed by Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai and Pune. At the same time, the trend extends beyond metros, with strong participation by women in Tier 2 cities such as Patna, Lucknow, Kolkata, Jaipur and Ahmedabad. **Women Are Strategic Upgraders and Smart Investors** Women are consistently monetising their existing devices and reinvesting within the same brand ecosystems, reflecting a deliberate and strategic approach to upgrades. Selling relatively newer models while continuing to buy within premium segments indicates strong awareness of resale timing, long-term value, and overall device lifecycle management. Top resale models include the iPhone 15 and 16 series. This points to a thoughtful upgrade timing that is aimed at maximising returns. At the same time, older models such as the iPhone 6 and iPhone 11 remain popular purchases, reflecting aspirational entry into premium ecosystems across multiple price points. **What the Data Reveals About Women in Recommerce** - Premium preference signals financial maturity: Women’s strong orientation towards flagship devices reflects a performance-first, value-conscious mindset. Recommerce is becoming a smart financial decision, not just a budget alternative. - Strategic selling reflects lifecycle awareness: The concentration of premium, flagship devices in resale, particularly newer models, indicates that women are actively calculating upgrade timing and resale value. This is a marker of a more sophisticated consumer, rather than an occasional one. - Urban depth, Tier 2 breadth: Meaningful participation in Patna, Lucknow, Jaipur, and Ahmedabad signals that digital confidence and trust in organised resale platforms are expanding well beyond metros. - Women are shaping India’s circular economy: Increasing participation in both buying and selling cycles means women are actively contributing to the supply-side health of the recommerce ecosystem. As this base scales, it strengthens India’s path towards becoming a meaningful global hub for remanufacturing.

Simultaneously, a massive 8k screen behind him explodes with visuals of the phone, leaving the audience in awe. > But just as the excitement peaks, the narrative takes an unexpected turn. Suddenly, Instamart delivery partners begin to emerge from the crowd. One reveals himself from the audience, while another dramatically swings onto the stage using a rope in true Bollywood style. Amid the confusion, a delivery partner politely apologises before swiftly taking the newly unveiled Galaxy S26 Ultra from the Samsung representative’s hand, leaving him momentarily frozen. Within seconds, the demo units are packed into Instamart delivery bags and rushed out of the venue. Cut to a home setting, a doorbell rings. A customer opens the door to find the same Galaxy S26 Ultra delivered instantly to his doorstep. The message is clear – “**skip the queue, get the newly launched Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra instantly on Instamart.”** > > **Mayur Hola, Head of Brand, Swiggy, said**, “At Instamart, we’ve always believed convenience should keep up with culture.

The expectations of a decrease in tensions triggered a pullback in oil prices, which in turn softened immediate concerns about inflation pressures. However, the broader geopolitical backdrop remains fragile, and any renewed escalation could quickly push oil prices, the dollar, and Treasury yields higher again. Monetary policy expectations could continue to react to the developments in the oil market and its impact on inflation. Expectations around the timing of interest cuts could continue to change accordi Looking ahead, attention now shifts to US inflation data. February’s CPI report on Wednesday and the January PCE data later in the week are expected to act as key catalysts, shaping expectations for Federal Reserve policy and driving the next directional move in both currency and bond markets.

Curated and presented by Archana Sapra and Pooja Bahri, the exhibition brings together a new body of work that reflects on the quiet and often unseen ways in which individuals are shaped slowly by their surroundings, routines, and social frameworks. The word Sardhubaatu, drawn from Telugu, loosely translates to “put together” or “arranged.” In Chunchula’s practice, however, the phrase resists neat resolution. His figures appear composed yet tentative, calm yet inwardly charged, suggesting states of being that are continuously negotiated rather than fixed. **Speaking about the exhibition, Ravi Chunchula said,** “Sardhubaatu is about the quiet process of becoming. It reflects how we are constantly shaped by what we see, where we stand, and who we are surrounded by. These works are less about telling a story and more about holding a moment where things feel temporarily aligned, even if imperfect.” Rendered primarily on rice paper, the works allow pigment to settle organically into the surface, staining and breathing with time. This fragile materiality becomes central to the exhibition’s visual language and echoes how experiences accumulate gradually, leaving subtle traces on identity and perception. A restrained palette of greys and earthen hues creates an atmosphere of stillness, punctuated by gentle accents of ochre, red, green, and blue that register internal shifts rather than overt drama. > Commenting on the exhibition, **Archana Sapra and Pooja Bahri, gallerists at ChampaTree Art Gallery, shared**, “Ravi’s work speaks through restraint. There is a deep attentiveness in the way his figures inhabit space. They appear quiet, grounded, and profoundly human. With Sardhubaatu, we were drawn to how subtly the works reflect contemporary existence without spectacle or excess, allowing viewers the space to pause and reflect.” Rather than portraying specific individuals, Chunchula’s figures evoke a shared psychological condition. They occupy everyday spaces, suspended between habit and awareness, solitude and collective presence. Narrative is deliberately withheld, allowing viewers to encounter the works through observation and introspection rather than explanation. Marking the opening evening, the exhibition was accompanied by a live theatre performance titled Where Is My Mind?, conceived by Rohit Chauhan and ensemble. Presented as a time-bound experiential intervention within the gallery space, the performance explored mental and social constructs such as belief, conformity, influence, and freedom through physical movement and visual symbolism. Following the opening evening, the exhibition continues as a painting-led presentation, inviting sustained engagement with Chunchula’s works in silence and contemplation. Sardhubaatu: Put Together, Somehow marks an important moment in Chunchula’s evolving practice and reaffirms his commitment to figuration as a site of observation, patience, and emotional precision. **Exhibition Details** What: Sardhubaatu: Put Together, Somehow, a solo exhibition by Ravi Chunchula Who: Presented by ChampaTree Art Gallery When: Opened on Friday, 6 March 2026 Where: Main Hall, Bikaner House, New Delhi Details: The exhibition presents a contemplative body of work by Ravi Chunchula that reflects on human presence, identity, and the subtle processes through which individuals are shaped by their environments and lived experiences.

Account opening remains one of the most time-consuming processes for wealth management firms. Advisors and operations teams frequently enter the same client information across multiple systems, generate custodial PDFs only to discover Not-In-Good-Order (NIGO) errors days later, delaying account funding and onboarding. Using Schwab’s Digital Account Onboarding APIs, Feathery enables firms to validate client data, generate onboarding envelopes and submit account opening requests to Schwab within a single workflow. This integration allows advisors and operations teams to complete Schwab account opening directly from their onboarding workflows. The launch builds on Feathery’s Schwab integration and extends it to fully API-driven workflows. “Wealth management firms shouldn’t have to rely on fragmented systems and manual entry to open accounts,” said Zack Khan, **co-founder of Feathery**. “By connecting directly to Schwab’s APIs, we’re helping firms streamline one of the most complex parts of onboarding so advisors spend less time managing processes and more time serving clients.” With the expanded integration, firms can: - Open Schwab accounts directly from Feathery workflows - Pre-validate client and account information to reduce NIGO errors - Eliminate duplicate data entry across systems - Accelerate time to account opening and funding - Embed custodian onboarding into broader client workflows - Streamline M&A and transitions for Schwab accounts Feathery’s platform orchestrates workflows across CRMs, custodians, financial planning tools and 150+ integrations, enabling firms to collect client information once, validate required fields before submission, and track onboarding status throughout the process. The Schwab API integration represents a step toward fully automated client onboarding across the wealth technology ecosystem, reducing operational friction and improving onboarding data quality.

Beyond aesthetics, the design of your space can profoundly influence your sleep, emotional balance, and overall well-being. By combining principles of interior design with insights from psychology and sleep science, you can create an environment that nurtures both body and mind. ### **Space and Layout: Comfort Begins With Placement** The arrangement of your bedroom sets the stage for relaxation. Experts emphasize the “command position” for the bed—where you can see the entrance without being directly aligned with it. This subtle alignment fosters a sense of safety and control, which can reduce stress and support deeper rest. Organizing furniture symmetrically, keeping surfaces clutter-free, and maintaining a balanced layout around the bed creates harmony in the room, signaling to your mind that this is a place for calm and restoration. ### **Color Psychology: Choose Calming Hues** Colors have a direct impact on mood and mental state. Soft shades of blue, green, lavender, and muted neutrals create a calming atmosphere, encouraging relaxation and lowering stress levels. Bright or bold tones, while energizing, are better reserved for workspaces or active areas. Coordinating walls, bedding, and decor helps reinforce the tranquil environment your bedroom should provide. ### **Lighting: Set the Mood for Rest** Lighting plays a critical role in regulating your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle. Warm, indirect lighting—such as dimmable lamps or soft bedside lights—can mimic sunset conditions, gently signaling your body to prepare for rest. Minimizing exposure to blue light from screens in the evening, along with blackout curtains or adjustable lighting, further supports melatonin production, making it easier to fall asleep and wake refreshed. ### **Texture and Comfort: Engage the Senses** The materials in your bedroom affect how your body perceives comfort. Soft fabrics like cotton, wool, and linen, layered rugs, and gentle throws create a tactile environment that encourages relaxation. Touch, along with sight, sets the stage for a serene experience that cues your body to unwind. ### **Technology and Boundaries: Reducing Sleep Disruptions** Electronic devices emit light and stimulation that can interfere with sleep. While it may not be practical to remove devices completely, setting boundaries—such as tech-free zones or night-mode settings—helps maintain healthy sleep patterns and allows your body to relax naturally. ### **Air Quality and Temperature: The Final Touches** Good air quality and ambient comfort are essential for restorative sleep. Indoor plants like aloe vera or peace lilies help purify the air while adding a calm, natural touch. Keeping the room temperature around **18–20°C** ensures a comfortable environment that supports uninterrupted sleep. ### **Mindful Design: The Path to Wellness** Thoughtful interior design goes beyond decorating—it shapes how we feel, think, and rest. A bedroom designed for calmness and relaxation enhances sleep quality, supports mental health, and boosts overall well-being. By combining balanced layouts, soothing colors, gentle lighting, soft textures, and mindful technology use, you can create a space that is more than a bedroom—it becomes a sanctuary for your body, mind, and spirit.

The scale of disruption is unprecedented. Gulf countries in total produce 20 million b/d of liquids, and 15 million b/d of exports have been taken out of the global market. The industry has never faced a loss of supply volumes of this magnitude. “When the conflict ends, cranking up the supply chain won’t be swift,” said Simon Flowers, Chairman and Chief Analyst at Wood Mackenzie. “Product barrels in storage at refineries or in port might be moved on vessels quite quickly. But if wells are shut-in for a prolonged period, restarting production to full output could take weeks or even longer.” **Prices already $100/bbl** Competition for remaining barrels has already pushed prices above $100/bbl early this week. Markets dependent on exports have been particularly exposed across multiple regions. Europe faces especially acute challenges. In 2025, Gulf refineries supplied 60% of Europe’s jet fuel and 30% of its diesel, volumes which are now entirely cut off. Asia, which receives the majority of Gulf crude exports, faces equally severe pressure. Chinese, Indian, and other Asian buyers have been scrambling to secure alternative cargoes, driving up prices for West African and Latin American crude. Competition between Europe and Asia for limited non-Gulf supplies is intensifying price pressure across all regions. The prospect of extreme tightness in refined product markets is reflected in super-high crack spreads. Jet-fuel cracks in NW Europe have traded at US$100/bbl (implying close to US$200/bbl Brent) and diesel cracks US$70/bbl, four to five times pre-war levels. **Strategic stocks and alternative supply offer limited relief** Strategic petroleum reserves offer some relief but cannot fully offset the supply loss. IEA member countries hold stocks equivalent to 90 days of imports, but sustained releases are unprecedented and IEA members account for less than half of global demand. During the Russia/Ukraine crisis, strategic stock releases did little to prevent prices reaching $125/bbl, and the supply gap from the Gulf shutdown is significantly larger. Alternative supply sources also cannot fill the gap. While higher prices could incentivize US producers to accelerate output and forego maintenance, the Lower 48 could add only a few hundred thousand barrels per day over three to six months—a fraction of the 15 million b/d shortfall. With no supply solution available, demand destruction becomes the only rebalancing mechanism. **$150/bbl needed to rebalance** Prices will continue to escalate as the conflict prolongs, according to Wood Mackenzie analysis. “Much will depend on how long the war lasts, how long the Strait of Hormuz remains closed and if the US Navy can ensure safe passage of vessels by escorting shipping,” said Flowers. “Global oil demand of 105 million b/d will still have to fall to balance the market and in our view, that will require Brent to push up at least to US$150/bbl in the coming weeks.” At this price level, demand would fall through multiple channels: industrial users curtailing consumption, transport substitution away from oil-intensive modes, economic contraction reducing overall activity, and consumers reducing discretionary travel. **$200/bbl possible if conflict extends** While oil reached $150/bbl in inflation-adjusted terms during the 2022 Russia/Ukraine crisis, this situation could prove more severe. “Supply volumes at risk this time are dimensionally bigger—and real,” said Flowers. “In our view, US$200/bbl is not outside the realms of possibility in 2026.” [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [TECNO CAMON 50 Series: Redefining Professional Imaging Through the Power of Practical AI](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/tecno-camon-50-series-redefining-professional-imaging-through-the-power-of-practical-ai/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Cairo, Mar 10:** AI-driven innovative technology brand TECNO took the stage at MWC 2026 to unveil the CAMON 50 Series.

Khaunte informed the State Legislative Assembly today that the Department of Tourism has prepared a roadmap to expand eco-tourism in Goa based on suggestions from relevant stakeholders. He also announced that there are plans to formulate an eco-tourism policy in collaboration with the Forest Department. ![Goa’s Eco-Tourism Plan Prepares to boost Responsible Tourism in Rural Areas](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/os91qmqvgs.jpeg) Responding to a question raised by MLA Aleixo Reginaldo Lourenco during Question Hour in the Assembly regarding eco-tourism. During the discussion on the main question, Lourenco asked a supplementary query on whether specific areas had been identified for eco-tourism and what plans were being considered for waste management. While elaborating further, Khaunte stated that the expansion of eco-tourism aims to promote responsible tourism in rural areas while ensuring environmental conservation and creating livelihood opportunities for local communities. He further informed that after the government came to power in 2022 under the leadership of Chief Minister Pramod Sawant, efforts were made to provide visitors with an opportunity to experience Goa beyond the sea. As part of this initiative, eco-tourism, yoga and wellness tourism, spiritual tourism, and village tourism have been opened up to visitors. The Minister stated that Goa has consciously shifted its tourism narrative through the ‘Goa Beyond Beaches’ initiative, placing a strong emphasis on eco-tourism and nature-based experiences in the State’s hinterland. Goa is home to several natural destinations renowned for eco-tourism including iconic locations such as Dudhsagar Falls, which is the third tallest waterfall in the country and received 236,000 visitors last year. Apart from Dudhsagar, the State also boasts a number of lesser-known but scenic destinations such as Cotigao Wildlife Sanctuary, Kuskem Waterfall, Tambdi Surla, Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary, Mainapi, Bhoma, Charavane and waterfalls in other regions across Goa’s hinterland are among the state’s natural treasures. If visitor movement increases towards these areas, it will help ensure balanced development of rural parts of the State. The Minister informed that the Goa Tourism Development Corporation (GTDC) organises monsoon trekking experiences every year, encouraging visitors to explore Goa’s waterfalls and forest trails during the monsoon season. With the objective of streamlining, regularising and enhancing the overall visitor experience, GTDC has appointed an operator for conducting monsoon trek trails at Dudhsagar Waterfall. The service provider has introduced activities such as jeep safaris, walking treks and monsoon trekking trails in hinterland areas, encouraging tourists to explore Goa beyond its beaches. Highlighting the importance of community participation, the Minister noted that Goa Tourism is actively working with local stakeholders and private operators to curate unique experiences that go beyond conventional sightseeing. These include wildlife and birding experiences, bioluminescence trails, heritage walks, island nature trails, adventure activities and educational workshops that allow visitors to engage meaningfully with Goa’s biodiversity, heritage and culture. He further stated that the Department of Tourism has signed Memorandums of Understanding with organisations and local operators who specialise in such experiences, thereby promoting tourism that is both educational and sustainable. These initiatives also ensure that economic benefits from tourism reach villages and hinterland communities. The Minister emphasised that eco-tourism must be promoted in a balanced and responsible manner to avoid over-tourism in sensitive areas. In this regard, the Department is exploring coordination with other departments to ensure proper planning and management of eco-tourism destinations. He also highlighted the role of the homestay and bed-and-breakfast scheme, enabling visitors to experience Goa’s village life, local cuisine and traditions while generating livelihood opportunities for rural families, particularly women. Such initiatives help channel tourism benefits directly to the community and strengthen the hinterland economy. The Minister added that tourism, being a key industry for the State, requires collective responsibility from all stakeholders including communities, local bodies and authorities to address issues such as waste management, stray animals and overall destination upkeep.

In several informal clusters across Bengaluru, families lack access to basic electricity, relying on paid charging points and unsafe lighting alternatives. Addressing this gap, Schneider Electric Infrastructure Limited and Schneider Electric India Foundation (SEIF), in partnership with Shishu Mandir, has completed the distribution of 3,000 portable solar lamps during FY 25-26 to underserved migrant communities across Bengaluru. The initiative marks one of the largest single-year solar lamp commitments under the decade-long collaboration between the two organisations. > *“Technology must ultimately reach the last mile for impact,” said **Mr. Udai Singh, CEO& MD, Schneider Electric Infrastructure Limited**. “For low income families, a single solar lamp is more than a light — it brings safety, supports children’s learning, and restores dignity. By closing the energy gap, we’re not just lighting homes; we’re lighting up the hopes of the next generation. Our aim is to offer reliable lighting and mobile charging support, while helping communities build better livelihoods and create lasting impact.”* Each solar lamp is equipped with a compact solar panel and mobile charging port, enabling families to access clean, reliable lighting without recurring costs. For households that typically spend ₹10–20 daily on charging mobile phones, the lamps can generate estimated savings of up to ₹7,000 per year. Through lamp distribution drives we were able to engage 200+ volunteers as well. **A Decade of Green Skill Development** The solar lamp initiative is part of a broader collaboration focused on vocational training and renewable energy skills. Over the past ten years, Schneider Electric has supported the establishment and strengthening of three specialised laboratories at Shishu Mandir’s Bengaluru vocational training centre, covering Basic Electrical Training,Solar Technician Training, and Industrial Wiring and Automation Training. The centre focuses on school dropouts, rural youth and underserved communities, offering livelihood-based skilling that translates directly into employability. In addition to infrastructure support, Schneider Electric conducts Week-long Training of Trainers (ToT) programs for Industrial Training Institute (ITI) instructors from across India. Selected trainees also undergo a 21-day entrepreneurship development programme covering business registration, credit access, compliance and mentoring, enabling many to start micro-enterprises and generate additional employment. Shishu Mandir plays a deliberate role in beneficiary identification and programme implementation. “The lamps provide immediate relief, but the deeper transformation lies in skills and livelihoods,” said Anand, Director, Shishu Mandir.“For over ten years, Schneider Electric has stood with us in strengthening both skills and sustainability. From setting up advanced electrical labs to training trainers and now lighting 3,000 homes, this partnership reflects a shared belief — that development must reach the last mile. A single solar lamp may appear small, but for a family living without electricity, it transforms safety, savings and hope.” **National CSR and Sustainability Impact** The Bengaluru initiative aligns with Schneider Electric’s broader CSR and sustainability efforts across India. Between 2019 and 2025, the company has supported the training of over 3 lakh youth through more than 600 training centres across 27 states, working with 70+ partners. Its clean energy initiatives include solar-powered digital classrooms, solar water pumps for farmers, portable solar lighting solutions and Climate Smart Village programmes in states such as Jharkhand, Maharashtra and Karnataka.

The GI surgical team at Fortis Memorial Research Institute (FMRI), Gurugram, has been using these advanced techniques in the management of chronic pancreatitis, treating patients with complex pancreatic duct stones and ductal obstruction. Chronic pancreatitis often affects young patients in the prime of their lives, who may suffer from debilitating abdominal pain, diabetes, and significant weight loss, severely affecting their quality of life. One such case involved a 27-year-old man who had been suffering from repeated episodes of severe abdominal pain requiring multiple hospital visits. Imaging showed stones blocking the pancreatic duct along with dilation of the duct. The patient underwent a minimally invasive pancreatic drainage procedure that created a new pathway for pancreatic juices to drain into the intestine. His pain improved significantly following surgery, and he was discharged in stable condition within five days. Another case involved an 11-year-old boy who presented with severe abdominal pain and jaundice. He was diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis with obstruction of the bile duct. The surgical team performed a minimally invasive laparoscopic procedure to drain the pancreatic duct and relieve the bile duct obstruction, restoring the normal flow of digestive and biliary secretions. The child recovered well following the surgery. **Expert Comment** > **Speaking about the surgical experience, Dr. Amit Javed, Principal Director & HOD – Laparoscopic GI, GI Oncology, Bariatric & MIS Surgery, Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram, said:** “Chronic pancreatitis significantly affects patients’ quality of life, leading to persistent abdominal pain and digestive difficulties. Minimally invasive laparoscopic pancreatic drainage procedures help relieve ductal obstruction, remove pancreatic stones, and restore pancreatic drainage. Compared to traditional open surgery, this approach allows faster recovery, reduced postoperative pain, and shorter hospital stays. FMRI Gurugram is among the few centres in India performing these complex laparoscopic pancreatic procedures, and our team has successfully treated close to 200 patients using this approach.” > > **Yash Rawat, Facility Director & Senior Vice President, Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram, added:** “The successful management of these complex cases highlights the growing expertise in advanced minimally invasive pancreatic surgery at Fortis Memorial Research Institute. By combining surgical precision with modern laparoscopic techniques, the hospital continues to expand treatment options for patients suffering from complex pancreatic disorders. Such advancements help reduce surgical trauma, promote faster recovery, and improve long-term patient outcomes.” The GI surgical team at Fortis Memorial Research Institute (FMRI), Gurugram, has performed close to 200 minimally invasive laparoscopic surgeries for patients with chronic pancreatitis, representing one of the largest reported series of laparoscopic pancreatic surgeries for chronic pancreatitis in India. With advances in minimally invasive techniques, selected patients can now be treated laparoscopically, offering potential advantages such as smaller incisions, faster recovery, and reduced postoperative discomfort. Most patients underwent laparoscopic pancreatic duct drainage procedures, where the obstructed pancreatic duct is opened and connected to the intestine to allow improved drainage of pancreatic juices and relief of ductal pressure.

Union Jal Shakti Minister C. R. Patil recently inaugurated the new office of the National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA) in New Delhi while launching several digital initiatives aimed at strengthening dam safety governance. The event signals a broader shift in how India plans to monitor and manage its vast dam infrastructure. **Managing one of the world’s largest dam networks** India has one of the largest dam networks in the world, with thousands of major and medium dams spread across different river basins. Monitoring their structural health, safety compliance and operational risks requires constant inspection and data analysis. The Dam Safety Act, 2021 created the NDSA as a national regulatory authority to ensure uniform safety standards and coordination between states and central agencies. Since many dams are owned by state governments, effective data sharing and oversight have been a key challenge. The latest digital tools launched by the ministry aim to address this gap by making dam safety information more accessible and easier to analyse. **AI enters dam safety monitoring** One of the most notable initiatives unveiled during the event is NETRA (NDSA Engine for Tracking and Review using AI). The platform provides a conversational interface that allows officials to quickly retrieve information from regulations, safety guidelines and technical documents. NETRA is integrated with DHARMA, a national repository containing data on more than 6,600 specified dams along with thousands of inspection reports. Every year, over 13,000 inspection reports are generated during pre-monsoon and post-monsoon dam inspections. The use of artificial intelligence could help authorities quickly analyse these large datasets, identify emerging risks and improve decision-making during critical periods such as heavy rainfall or flooding. The platform has been developed in collaboration with the Weapons and Electronics Systems Engineering Establishment, highlighting increasing cross-sector cooperation in technology development. **Digital mapping for risk assessment** Another major initiative launched at the event is Rashtriya Bandh Suraksha Darpan, a visualisation platform developed with the help of the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing. The system focuses on Dam Break Analysis, a critical exercise used to model potential flooding scenarios if a dam fails or experiences structural distress. By creating interactive digital maps and visual models of possible dam break scenarios, authorities can better understand downstream risks, plan evacuation strategies and improve disaster preparedness. Such tools are particularly important in densely populated river basins where dam failures could have serious human and economic consequences. **Transparency and public access to dam data** Alongside these technical platforms, the ministry also launched a new NDSA website that includes a GIS-based interface displaying information about major dams across India. The map-based system allows users to explore key features and locations of specified dams, reflecting an effort to improve transparency and accessibility of dam safety information. Publicly available data can also help researchers, disaster management agencies and local administrations better understand regional water infrastructure and risk patterns. **Linking infrastructure with sustainability** The event also included the remote inauguration of rooftop solar plants installed across seven buildings of the Central Water Commission. Although small in scale, the initiative reflects a broader push to integrate renewable energy into government infrastructure. Together, the digital initiatives and infrastructure upgrades signal an evolving approach to dam governance in India. Instead of relying primarily on manual inspections and fragmented data systems, authorities are gradually building an integrated digital ecosystem for monitoring dam health and managing water infrastructure risks. **The larger governance challenge** For a country with a large and ageing dam network, improving safety oversight is becoming increasingly important. Many dams were built decades ago, and climate change is altering rainfall patterns, raising concerns about extreme floods and reservoir management. Technology alone cannot address all these challenges. However, tools such as AI-assisted data analysis, GIS mapping and centralised databases can help regulators identify vulnerabilities earlier and coordinate responses more effectively. The launch of these digital platforms suggests that India is beginning to move toward a more modern, data-driven framework for dam safety governance, where infrastructure monitoring, risk modelling and policy oversight are increasingly interconnected. **Categories:** News --- ### [Park Hospital Launches Panchkula Facility, Expands Mohali Campus; Tricity Capacity to Reach 850 Beds](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/park-hospital-launches-panchkula-facility-expands-mohali-campus-tricity-capacity-to-reach-850-beds/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Panchkula/Mohali, Mar 10:** Park Medi World Limited has approved the launch of an advanced multi-super specialty hospital in **Panchkula** along with the expansion of its existing facility in **Mohali**, further strengthening the presence of **Park Group of Hospitals** across the Tricity healthcare ecosystem.

Enhanced precision is considered particularly important in Uncemented knee replacement, where implant stability depends on exact alignment and bone contact rather than cement bonding. Unlike conventional knee replacements that use medical-grade bone cement to secure artificial components to bone, Uncemented implants are engineered with a specialized porous surface that allows the patient’s own bone to gradually grow into the implant. This process, known as biological fixation, is intended to create stable anchoring over time through natural bone ingrowth. **Dr. Vividh Makwana** said, > *“For many patients with advanced knee arthritis, the real goal of surgery is not just pain relief but restoring confidence in movement and improving quality of life. Every knee replacement requires careful evaluation of the patient’s overall joint condition, bone strength, and functional needs before deciding on the most suitable treatment approach. When the procedure is matched well to the patient and followed by structured rehabilitation, it can significantly improve mobility and day-to-day independence. Equally important is guiding patients through recovery with physiotherapy and lifestyle adjustments so that the new joint supports comfortable, long-term activity.”* Knee osteoarthritis remains one of the leading causes of chronic knee pain among individuals over 50. Patients commonly experience persistent pain, stiffness after rest, swelling, and increasing difficulty with activities such as walking or climbing stairs. While early-stage management includes medication, physiotherapy, weight control, and joint injections, surgery is considered when conservative measures fail to restore adequate function. **A patient with advanced arthritis unresponsive to conservative treatment** said, > *“I had been living with constant knee pain for years, and everyday activities had become exhausting. After the surgery and ongoing physiotherapy, I am steadily regaining mobility and returning to my normal routine.”* Uncemented fixation may be considered in selected patients, particularly those with good bone quality. Suitability depends on a comprehensive clinical and radiological evaluation.

Ltd., has announced its strategic expansion into the paper-based packaging segment with the launch of its Grease proof Paper. Unveiled at AAHAR 2026, the International Food & Hospitality Fair, the move marks HOMEFOIL’s category diversification beyond its established aluminium foil portfolio. The newly launched greaseproof paper offers oil resistance of up to 168 hours, significantly higher than conventional uncoated paper formats that typically withstand grease for only five to six hours. Designed to minimise oil seepage and staining, the paper helps maintain cleaner food handling and better presentation across both household and commercial kitchens. Made using food-contact safe materials with FDA-compliant additives, the biodegradable and non-toxic paper aligns with HOMEFOIL’s focus on delivering safe, hygienic, and reliable packaging solutions for modern food service and retail needs. The product was introduced to distributors, HoReCa operators and retail partners at AAHAR, reflecting growing demand for reliable grease management solutions across both household and food service environments. The entry into grease-proof paper marks a strategic expansion of HOMEFOIL’s product portfolio, reinforcing the brand’s effort to provide a comprehensive range of hygiene-focused kitchen and food-protection solutions. By broadening its SKU basket, the company aims to offer consumers and food service operators a more integrated packaging choice under a single brand. The move comes at a time when the food packaging sector is witnessing increasing demand for functional and h7ygienic formats across both retail and HoReCa segments. The new Grease Proof Paper has been designed to manage oil absorption, maintain food texture and support hygienic handling during cooking, storage and service. Manufactured in LSKB’s state-of-the-art facilities in Sonipat, the product offers consistent roll strength and thickness for everyday kitchen use, including food wrapping, baking preparation and microwave reheating. The initial rollout features three versatile variants: 20+5, 40, 75 and 90 metres roll, catering to both domestic kitchens and high-volume HoReCa (Hotel, Restaurant, and Catering) requirements. HOMEFOIL’s entry into this segment positions the brand to address these emerging needs while strengthening its presence across the food consumption value chain. > **Commenting on the launch, Mr Kunal Bajaj, Director, Jupiter Group, added,** “Food service operators today are managing higher volumes, faster turnaround times and stricter hygiene requirements. Packaging materials that perform consistently under these conditions are becoming critical. The rapid growth of quick service restaurants (QSRs), cloud kitchens, and the evolving food delivery and takeaway ecosystem has played a key role in driving demand for foil and allied packaging solutions in the Indian market. > > **Lakshay Singhal, Director, LSKB Aluminium Foils Pvt. Ltd., said,** Our premium Golden Foil range has emerged as one of the most trusted and widely used products in our portfolio. As consumer expectations around hygiene, food safety and convenience continue to evolve, we see a clear opportunity to bring better quality solutions into the food packaging category. Our entry into grease proof paper is part of this journey — expanding our offerings while maintaining the same focus on reliability and performance. We believe initiatives like these will also contribute to the broader growth and quality standards of India’s food packaging ecosystem.” The commercial rollout of HOMEFOIL Grease Proof Paper will commence in March 2026, with distribution across retail and institutional channels. The launch will be supported by the company’s extensive distribution network of over 150 distributors and more than 25,000 channel partners across India, enabling wide market access from the outset. In addition, HOMEFOIL products will be available across major e-commerce and quick commerce platforms including Amazon, Flipkart, Blinkit, Swiggy Instamart, Zepto and Hyperpure by Zomato. Alongside the new category launch, HOMEFOIL showcased its flagship Golden Embossed Aluminium Foil, recognised as India’s first Golden Embossed Foil by LSKB, along with its innovative 2-in-1 Paper & Golden Foil and a comprehensive aluminium foil range designed for superior food preservation, hygiene and heat retention at AAHAR 2026. This established foil portfolio continues to provide the foundation for the brand’s expansion into adjacent and complementary food packaging categories.

But the latest figures shared in Parliament reveal a more complex policy landscape, where welfare, sustainability and energy transition are shaping the future of coastal livelihoods. According to Fisheries Minister **Rajiv Ranjan Singh**, projects worth **₹1,418.51 crore** have been approved for Kerala under the **Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana** over the past five years and the current financial year. The investments span infrastructure, alternative livelihoods, community support and coastal ecosystem management. ### Expanding the fisheries development model The scale of support highlights how the fisheries sector has become a key focus area in India’s rural livelihood strategy. Traditionally dependent on near-shore fishing and small boats, Kerala’s fisherfolk are increasingly being integrated into a broader fisheries economy that includes aquaculture, value-added processing and modern marketing channels. Under the approved projects, support has been extended for **deep-sea fishing vessels, replacement boats and nets, artificial reefs and aquaculture units**. The programme also promotes alternative income sources such as **bivalve cultivation, biofloc aquaculture and ornamental fish farming**, indicating a shift away from dependence solely on marine capture fishing. Such diversification is particularly important in Kerala, where coastal fish stocks have faced pressure due to overfishing, climate change and habitat degradation. Artificial reefs, for instance, are intended to rejuvenate fish populations by creating new marine habitats. Similarly, aquaculture systems such as **Re-Circulatory Aquaculture Systems (RAS)** and biofloc units allow communities to produce fish in controlled environments, reducing pressure on marine ecosystems. ### Building coastal infrastructure and market access Another dimension of the programme focuses on strengthening the fisheries value chain. Projects approved for Kerala include **transport vehicles, fish kiosks, live fish vending centres and value-added enterprise units**. These investments address a long-standing structural problem in India’s fisheries sector: poor post-harvest infrastructure. Without cold storage, transport and processing facilities, a significant portion of fish catch loses value before reaching markets. By expanding retail outlets and value-added enterprises, policymakers hope to help fishermen and fisherwomen capture a larger share of the final consumer price. The establishment of **Integrated Modern Coastal Fishing Villages** and **Climate Resilient Coastal Villages** also reflects a broader attempt to combine livelihood development with climate adaptation in vulnerable coastal regions. ### Welfare and financial inclusion at the state level Alongside central schemes, the Government of Kerala has continued its own welfare initiatives through institutions such as the **Kerala Fishermen Welfare Fund Board** and **Matsyafed**. These programmes provide **interest-free loans, microfinance support, education loans for fishermen’s children, and financial assistance to fisherwomen engaged in fish vending**. Such interventions aim to reduce dependence on informal credit networks that have historically trapped many fishing families in cycles of debt. Access to institutional finance also enables fishermen to upgrade boats, engines and fishing gear. ### The kerosene transition dilemma While fisheries welfare schemes are expanding, another policy shift is affecting the sector: the gradual reduction of kerosene subsidies. The **Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas** has been reducing allocations of Public Distribution System (PDS) kerosene over the years because of environmental and health concerns. Kerosene is widely considered a polluting fuel and many states have already phased it out. However, in coastal fishing communities, kerosene still plays a practical role, particularly for **lighting and small-scale fishing operations**. Under the new **PDS Kerosene Allocation Policy for 2025–26 to 2027–28**, states have flexibility to allocate kerosene for specific needs, including fisheries. For **Kerala**, the allocation has increased sharply to **22,704 kilolitres for 2025–26**, compared with **4,368 KL in 2024–25**. Yet utilisation data shows uneven uptake across quarters, suggesting that distribution mechanisms and changing energy patterns may be influencing consumption. ### Balancing sustainability with livelihoods Kerala’s fisheries sector illustrates the broader policy challenge facing India’s coastal economy. On one hand, governments are investing heavily in modernisation, aquaculture and infrastructure to increase incomes. On the other, environmental pressures and energy transitions are reshaping how traditional fishing communities operate. The combination of livelihood diversification, welfare support and infrastructure investment suggests a long-term effort to reduce the vulnerability of small-scale fishers. But the success of these initiatives will depend on how effectively traditional fishermen adapt to new production models, and whether policy frameworks can balance sustainability goals with the economic realities of coastal communities. **Categories:** business --- ### [Youva Completes 22nd Edition of Masterstroke Drawing Competition with 20 Lakh Student Participation](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/education/youva-completes-22nd-edition-of-masterstroke-drawing-competition-with-20-lakh-student-participation/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Pune, Mar 10:** Youva from the house of Navneet Education Limited has completed their 22nd edition of ‘Youva Masterstroke’.

A softer US dollar and lower inflation concerns, after oil prices receded, supported the metal. Markets reacted to US President Donald Trump’s suggestion that tensions in the Middle East could come to an end soon. However, any renewed escalation in the region could push oil prices higher again, reviving concerns about persistent inflation, lifting US Treasury yields, and weighing on gold prices in the process. As a result, the market could remain highly sensitive to the developments in the Middle East. At the same time, continued tensions between Ukraine and Russia and delays in peace negotiations sustain a supportive geopolitical backdrop, while central bank demand for gold could provide long-term support. Looking ahead, monetary policy expectations could continue to change, with upcoming inflation and PCE data likely to influence sentiment and shape gold’s next move.

The figure, highlighted by Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal at the AAHAR – The International Food & Hospitality Fair, reflects more than a decade of steady growth in both raw agricultural commodities and processed foods. While the headline number signals rising global demand for Indian produce, it also points to a structural shift underway in the country’s agri-export ecosystem: a gradual move from traditional commodity exports toward value-added food products and diversified markets. ### A decade of export expansion Between 2014 and 2025, India’s agri and food export basket expanded across multiple segments. According to the government, processed food exports have increased fourfold, while fruit and pulses exports have tripled. Processed vegetable exports have also quadrupled, and cereal exports have doubled during the same period. Rice exports alone have grown by 62 percent. This growth suggests that India’s export profile is slowly evolving beyond bulk grains. Increasing global demand for packaged foods, ready-to-cook ingredients, and specialty agricultural products is creating new opportunities for Indian exporters. The expansion of the domestic food processing industry has also played a role, enabling Indian producers to move up the value chain rather than relying solely on raw commodity shipments. ### Value addition becomes the new growth driver For decades, India’s agricultural exports were dominated by staples such as rice, wheat, and raw spices. While these remain important, the fastest growth is now emerging in processed and semi-processed food categories. Higher value products such as processed vegetables, packaged foods, fruit pulp, and specialty ingredients allow exporters to earn significantly better margins than bulk commodities. They also help diversify India’s export portfolio and reduce vulnerability to commodity price fluctuations. The rise of the processed food segment also reflects deeper changes in global consumption patterns. Urbanisation, rising incomes, and the expansion of international retail chains have increased demand for packaged and ready-to-consume food products. ### Trade agreements shaping market access India’s expanding network of trade agreements is also beginning to influence agricultural export trends. According to Piyush Goyal, recent free trade agreements have been designed to ensure that farmers, fishermen and MSMEs benefit from improved access to overseas markets. At the same time, sensitive sectors such as dairy and genetically modified products have been excluded from liberalisation commitments in several agreements. This reflects a balancing act between expanding exports and protecting domestic agriculture from external competition. For exporters, new trade deals can open opportunities in markets where tariffs previously limited access for Indian food products. #### Infrastructure and supply chain remain critical Despite the growth, structural challenges continue to shape India’s agricultural export performance. Cold chain infrastructure, logistics efficiency, and compliance with global food safety standards remain areas where improvements are needed. Perishable exports such as fruits, vegetables, seafood, and processed foods depend heavily on efficient storage, transport, and quality certification systems. Government initiatives aimed at strengthening food processing clusters, improving port connectivity, and expanding cold storage capacity are expected to play a key role in supporting the next phase of export growth. ### Ambition to become a global food powerhouse The government has repeatedly articulated a broader ambition: positioning India as the “food basket of the world,” a vision promoted by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Reaching that goal will require more than expanding output. It will depend on improving productivity, increasing value addition, and strengthening global branding of Indian food products. If current trends continue, India’s agricultural export sector could evolve from a commodity-focused trade segment into a diversified global food industry. The ₹5 lakh crore milestone, in that sense, may represent not just growth in exports, but the beginning of a broader transformation in how India participates in global food markets. **Categories:** business --- ### [Kurichiyil Ayurveda Announces INR 250 Crore ‘Ayurtech’ Project, Creating 500 Jobs Across Kerala](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/kurichiyil-ayurveda-announces-inr-250-crore-ayurtech-project-creating-500-jobs-across-kerala/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** ![Kurichiyil Ayurveda Announces INR 250 Crore ‘Ayurtech’ Project, Creating 500 Jobs Across Kerala](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/go21ilprov.jpeg) **Kochi, Mar 10:** Kurichiyil Ayurveda has announced a ₹250 crore phased investment initiative, positioning Kerala as a global leader in integrated preventive healthcare and high-value wellness tourism.

The report provides a comprehensive analysis of India’s evolving capital market landscape, attractiveness of India as an investment destination, IPO trends, ownership patterns, and key aspects in the offer document from a regulatory lens. The report unveiled by Jamil Khatri, Co-Founder & CEO, Uniqus Consultech, and Rajat Tandon, President, IVCA, examines how India’s capital markets are undergoing a structural transformation driven by strong domestic participation, robust fundraising activity, and increasing global investor interest. India’s IPO market in 2025 remained resilient despite global volatility, raising INR 1.76 lakh crore, up 10% over 2024, with 63% of proceeds from OFS and 37% from primary issuances. Market ownership is also shifting structurally, with DIIs holding approximately INR 88 lakh crore in NSE-listed companies compared to about INR 78 lakh crore by FIIs, while India’s overall market capitalisation has nearly doubled from INR 229 lakh crore in July 2021 to INR 477 lakh crore in 2025. The analysis also indicates that IPO proceeds were largely deployed to strengthen financial positions and support core operations: • Working capital: ~32% • Debt repayment: ~27% • Capital expenditure: ~18% The pipeline also remains strong, with around 200 draft offer documents filed with SEBI, representing a potential issuance of over INR 1.81 lakh crore, supported by healthy domestic liquidity and a stable macroeconomic environment. Commenting on the report launch, **Raghuram K, Partner – Accounting & Reporting Consulting (ARC), Uniqus Consultech**, said, > *“The findings highlight how India’s capital markets are evolving from being primarily a growth story to becoming a structural valuation story. Strong domestic participation, deepening institutional ownership and a robust IPO pipeline are collectively strengthening the resilience and maturity of India’s equity markets.”* **Rajat Tandon, President, IVCA**, added, > *“India’s capital markets are increasingly reflecting the depth and maturity of the country’s alternate capital ecosystem. Over the past decade, private equity and venture capital have played a pivotal role in nurturing companies, strengthening governance, and preparing businesses for the public markets. A vibrant IPO environment is therefore not just a market outcome—it is a natural extension of the value creation journey that begins with long-term private capital. As domestic pools of capital deepen and regulatory frameworks continue to evolve, India is steadily building a more resilient and globally relevant capital market ecosystem.”* Looking ahead, the report notes that India could witness a broader and deeper IPO cycle driven by structural conviction and disciplined capital formation, supported by sustained domestic liquidity, expanding retail participation, and improving regulatory transparency.

The approvals cover two major traction upgrades on high-density freight and passenger routes, along with a large-scale expansion of the optical fibre communication backbone in western India. Together, these projects are designed to improve train speeds, increase freight capacity, and support advanced railway safety technologies. ### Powering a key freight corridor on the East Coast One of the largest components of the upgrade programme is the **₹318.07 crore traction system upgrade** on the **106-km Duvvada–Visakhapatnam–Vizianagaram section** under **East Coast Railway**. The project will replace the existing **1×25 kV electric traction system** with the more advanced **2×25 kV system**, which provides higher power supply capacity to trains. This change allows railways to run heavier freight trains and maintain higher speeds while improving operational reliability. The section lies on the crucial **Howrah–Chennai main line**, one of the busiest rail corridors in the country. It plays a central role in transporting minerals and industrial goods from Odisha and Chhattisgarh to **Visakhapatnam Port**, making it a vital freight artery for eastern India. Strengthening traction power along this stretch is expected to ease congestion and enable smoother freight movement while also benefiting passenger services. ### Boosting capacity on the Mumbai–Chennai route Another traction modernisation project has been approved for the **126-km Raichur–Guntakal section**, which runs through Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh under the **South Central Railway**. The upgrade, sanctioned at **₹259.39 crore**, will also convert the existing traction system from **1×25 kV to 2×25 kV**. This enhancement will allow the corridor to handle heavier train loads, improve operational reliability, and increase the speed potential of both passenger and freight trains. The section forms part of the busy **Mumbai–Chennai railway route**, connecting major industrial regions and ports. Strengthening the traction network here is expected to facilitate smoother freight operations and support faster passenger services, including modern trains such as **Vande Bharat Express**. The project also contributes to Indian Railways’ broader goal of reaching **3,000 million tonnes (MT)** of annual freight loading in the coming years. ### Building the digital backbone for railway safety Alongside traction upgrades, the railways are strengthening their communication infrastructure with a **₹187.88 crore optical fibre network project** across the **Western Railway**. The project will establish a **4×48 core Optical Fibre Cable (OFC) backbone architecture** across the **Vadodara** and **Mumbai Central** divisions. This system will deliver higher bandwidth, improved redundancy, and reliable connectivity for railway communication networks. Under the project, fibre cables will be laid across **1,000 route kilometres**, including: - **692 km in Vadodara Division** - **308 km in Mumbai Division** The digital backbone is critical for supporting **Kavach**, the indigenous train protection system being rolled out across the national railway network. Kavach relies on robust communication infrastructure to enable real-time train monitoring and automatic braking in case of potential collisions. ### Infrastructure for a high-capacity railway network These three projects form part of a broader modernisation programme included in the **2024–25 Railway Budget**, aimed at upgrading traction power systems and expanding digital infrastructure across the country. Together, the initiatives highlight Indian Railways’ dual strategy: increasing physical capacity through stronger traction systems while simultaneously building the digital backbone needed for modern signalling and safety technologies. For a network that carries over a billion tonnes of freight annually and connects thousands of cities and industrial clusters, such investments are essential to keep pace with India’s rapidly growing logistics and mobility demands. **Categories:** business --- ### [Fortis Mohali Launches Robot-Aided Exoskeletal Technology to Improve Motor Impairment in Neurological Patients](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/health/fortis-mohali-launches-robot-aided-exoskeletal-technology-to-improve-motor-impairment-in-neurological-patients/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Chandigarh, Mar 10:** **Fortis Hospital Mohali,** has revolutionized physiotherapy practices by introducing **Robot-aided Exoskeletal Technology** powered by artificial intelligence to help patients suffering from neurological or musculoskeletal impairments regain their ability to walk.

Union Minister of Ports, Shipping and Waterways **Sarbananda Sonowal** has cleared a ₹117.54 crore proposal to renovate the historic Bascule Bridge at **Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port**, a key structure inside the Kolkata Dock System (KDS). The project marks an effort to preserve a decades-old engineering landmark while adapting it to the operational demands of a modern port. ### Modernising a critical port artery The nearly six-decade-old double-leaf Bascule Bridge is an important internal transport link within the Kolkata Dock System. It facilitates both vehicular traffic and cargo movement across dock areas, connecting operational zones that support port logistics. Over time, however, ageing infrastructure and mechanical systems have raised concerns about efficiency and safety. The renovation project aims to address these issues through a comprehensive structural and electro-mechanical upgrade. Once completed, the bridge is expected to allow smoother movement of cargo vehicles and improve operational coordination within the port area. ### Investment with Sagarmala support The proposal submitted by **Syama Prasad Mookerjee Port** was reviewed by the Delegated Investment Board (DIB) of the Ministry of Ports, Shipping and Waterways. The board, chaired by the ministry’s secretary, appraised the project during a meeting held on 16 February 2026. Out of the total estimated project cost of ₹117.54 crore, about ₹41 crore will be supported through the **Sagarmala Programme**, the central government’s flagship initiative aimed at strengthening port infrastructure and improving logistics efficiency. The funding reflects the programme’s broader goal of modernising port facilities while improving connectivity between maritime gateways and inland transport networks. ### Engineering heritage meets modern technology The bridge was originally built by **Waagner-Biro Bridge Systems AG**, a firm known for constructing complex movable bridge systems around the world. Bascule bridges, often referred to as drawbridges, use a counterweight mechanism that allows the bridge deck to lift, enabling vessels to pass underneath. Such structures were historically essential in busy port environments where maritime and road traffic intersected. The renovation will upgrade both the structural elements and the electro-mechanical systems that control the lifting mechanism. This will help extend the bridge’s operational life while ensuring compliance with modern safety and efficiency standards. ### Implementation and execution The renovation will be implemented by **Rail Vikas Nigam Limited** (RVNL), which has been tasked with overseeing the project. Execution of the engineering work has been awarded to **H & H Fressinet**, a firm with experience in specialised structural upgrades and infrastructure rehabilitation. The project will focus on restoring structural integrity, upgrading mechanical systems, and improving operational reliability without disrupting ongoing port activities. ### Strengthening eastern India’s maritime gateway The Kolkata Dock System remains a vital node in eastern India’s maritime network, handling a mix of bulk cargo, containers, and inland waterway traffic. Efficient internal infrastructure is essential for maintaining cargo turnaround times and overall port productivity. By upgrading the historic Bascule Bridge, the government aims to improve internal logistics while preserving an important piece of port heritage. The renovation reflects a broader push to modernise India’s maritime infrastructure, where historic facilities are being adapted to meet the needs of a growing trade economy. **Categories:** business --- ### [Soy Soi presents Suey & Beyond: 12 Simmering Stories A Festival of Southeast Asian Broths, Curries, and Noodle Bowls](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/news/soy-soi-presents-suey-beyond-12-simmering-stories-a-festival-of-southeast-asian-broths-curries-and-noodle-bowls/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Soy Soi** invites diners on a deeply comforting culinary journey with ***Suey & Beyond: 12 Simmering Stories***, a limited-time festival celebrating the soulful broths, fragrant curries, and hearty noodle bowls of Southeast Asia from **12th March 2026, onwards at Kotturpuram, Chennai**.

For the ongoing Rabi 2025–26 season, the Union Government has decided to keep the retail price of Di-ammonium Phosphate (DAP), one of the most widely used fertilizers in the country, unchanged at ₹1350 per 50 kg bag. The decision reflects a broader strategy to shield farmers from international price swings while maintaining steady fertilizer supply across the country. ### A buffer against global volatility DAP prices in global markets have seen frequent fluctuations in recent years due to supply disruptions, energy costs, and geopolitical tensions. In such an environment, domestic price stability requires significant government intervention. To maintain the current retail price, the government has introduced special provisions amounting to ₹3500 per metric tonne. These provisions cover logistics from the factory to the farm gate, GST components, and a guaranteed 4 percent reasonable return for manufacturers. This financial support ensures that fertilizer producers and suppliers remain viable even when global prices shift sharply, while farmers continue to access DAP at a predictable cost. The move is particularly important for the Rabi season, when fertilizers such as DAP are critical for crops like wheat, pulses, and oilseeds. ### Supply situation remains comfortable Beyond pricing, availability is equally crucial during the peak agricultural season. According to the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, the country currently holds comfortable stocks of key phosphatic and potassic fertilizers. As of March 5, 2026: - **DAP:** Availability stands at **71.89 lakh metric tonnes (LMT)** against a pro-rata requirement of **51.38 LMT**. - **Muriate of Potash (MOP):** **18.17 LMT available** compared with a requirement of **14.18 LMT**. - **NPKS fertilizers:** **108.39 LMT available**, significantly above the **76.48 LMT requirement**. These numbers indicate that supply has outpaced seasonal demand so far, reducing the risk of shortages during the latter part of the Rabi cycle. ### Technology-driven monitoring The government is increasingly relying on digital systems to manage fertilizer distribution. Movement of subsidized fertilizers is tracked through the **Integrated Fertilizer Management System (iFMS)**, a web-based platform that monitors stock levels and supply chains in real time. The system helps authorities track fertilizer flow from production units to warehouses and eventually to retail outlets. It also allows the government to identify emerging shortages in specific regions and intervene quickly. Logistics coordination with the Ministry of Railways also plays a key role. Fertilizer rakes are given priority movement to ensure that stocks reach different states in time for the sowing and growth cycles. ### Encouraging balanced nutrient use While price stability remains the immediate focus, the government is also trying to address a longer-term challenge in Indian agriculture: excessive dependence on urea. Under the **Nutrient Based Subsidy (NBS)** framework, subsidies are linked to the nutrient content of fertilizers rather than to individual products. This policy encourages farmers to apply the right balance of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) based on crop and soil requirements. As part of this approach, additional fertilizer grades such as **10:26:26** and **12:32:16** have been incorporated into the subsidy structure. Average retail prices for some major fertilizers during the 2025–26 period are: - **NPK 10-26-26:** ₹1814.82 per 50 kg bag - **NPK 12-32-16:** ₹1711.87 per 50 kg bag - **MOP:** ₹1710.54 per 50 kg bag By making these nutrient-balanced fertilizers accessible, policymakers hope to gradually shift farmers toward more sustainable soil management practices. ### Policy continuity amid uncertainty The fertilizer sector sits at the intersection of agriculture, global commodity markets, and public policy. Price spikes in the international market can quickly translate into higher cultivation costs if not managed carefully. India’s strategy has been to absorb part of that volatility through subsidies, logistics support, and careful supply monitoring. Details of the latest measures were shared by Minister of State for Chemicals and Fertilizers **Anupriya Patel** in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha on March 10, 2026. For farmers heading into the final stretch of the Rabi season, the message is clear: fertilizers remain available, and the price of a key input has been kept steady despite global uncertainty. For policymakers, the challenge ahead will be maintaining this balance between affordability, supply security, and long-term soil health. **Categories:** business --- ### [PSB X change Connects with WOGOM to Expand Institutional Credit](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/psb-x-change-connects-with-wogom-to-expand-institutional-credit/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai, Mar 10**: PSB Xchange and WOGOM announced the enablement of a INR 5,000 crore credit pipeline designed to strengthen supply chain financing access for SMEs and MSMEs across India’s distribution ecosystem.

Based on the report’s research, conducted by S&P Global 451 Research, 64% of organisations in India and 70% globally who responded to the survey cite AI as their top data security risk. The concern is not only about malicious AI, but about the access it is being granted as it shifts from a tool to a trusted insider. As enterprises embed AI into workflows, analytics, customer service, and development pipelines, these systems are being granted broad, automated access to enterprise data, often with fewer controls than those applied to human users in a corporate environment. > *“The rapid adoption of AI is driving a surge in next-gen cyber threats, particularly deepfakes. This is corroborated by the 2026 Thales Data Threat Report, which reveals 65% of organisations in India have already experienced deepfake-driven attacks. We appreciate India’s efforts to strengthen its legal framework and counter these risks,” says **Ankur Kanaglekar, Vice President – India, Thales**. “When identity governance, access policies, or encryption frameworks are weak, AI can amplify those weaknesses across corporate environments far faster than any human ever could.”* **Visibility Gaps Are Widening as AI Expands Data Reach** The report reveals a troubling disconnect between AI adoption and data control. Only 34% of organisations worldwide, and 35% in India, know where all their data resides, regardless of its level of criticality. Just 39% worldwide and 36% in India can fully classify their data. Meanwhile, nearly half (47%) of sensitive cloud data remains unencrypted globally. As AI systems ingest and act on data across cloud and SaaS environments, limited visibility makes enforcing least-privilege access increasingly difficult, that is granting only the strictly necessary access rights. This increases the extent of exposure if credentials are compromised. Identity infrastructure is now the primary attack surface. Credential theft remains the leading attack technique against cloud management infrastructure, cited by 68% of organisations in India experiencing cloud attacks. At the same time, 44% rank secrets management among their top application security challenges in India, reflecting the growing complexity of governing machine identities, API (application programming interface) keys, and tokens at scale. **AI Is Powering More Convincing Attacks** While organisations race to adopt AI, attackers are doing the same. Nearly 65% of companies in India (60% worldwide) report experiencing deepfake-driven attacks, and 55% in India (48% globally) report reputational damage tied to AI-generated misinformation or impersonation campaigns. As AI introduces new risks, it also increases existing ones. Human error already contributes to 26% of breaches in India, and with automation layered on top, small mistakes can scale faster and spread wider. **Security Investment Is Shifting, But Not at the Pace of the new Risks** While organisations recognise the need to adapt, investment is not keeping pace with the rapid expansion of AI-driven access and automation. 30% of organisations in India and globally now dedicate specific budgets to AI security, reflecting growing awareness. However, the majority (53%) in India still depend on traditional security programs built primarily for human users and perimeter-based controls. As machines increasingly authenticate, access, and act autonomously, many security strategies have yet to adjust to this shift in operating models. > *“As AI becomes deeply embedded into enterprise operations, continuous data visibility and protection are no longer optional,” said **Eric Hanselman, Chief Analyst at S&P Global 451 Research**. “Organisations must treat data security strategy as foundational to innovation, not separate from it.”* **Trust Must Evolve as Machines Gain Access** AI is not replacing traditional threats; rather, it is intensifying them by increasing their speed, scale, and reach. As automated systems gain broader access to enterprise data, organisations must rethink identity, encryption, and data visibility as core infrastructure. The organisations that embed strong governance into their AI strategies will be better positioned to innovate securely and avoid turning AI into their newest insider threat.

The report maps how operational innovation across sourcing, logistics, and commerce is helping reduce food loss, strengthen farmer incomes, and improve transparency. Operating across 40+ agricultural products and engaging over 4,87,619 farmers, FarMart’s technology-led supply chain redesign avoided 23,567 tonnes of CO₂ emissions, prevented 18,305 metric tons of post-harvest food loss in 2025, enabled fresh water savings of 5.39 billion litres by improving movement efficiency and reducing embedded waste across agricultural sourcing, with over INR 23.4 billion aggregate payments earned by 4.8 lac farmers through FarMart during the year, strengthening income predictability and reducing reliance on fragmented mandi systems. Speaking on the report, **Alekh Sanghera, Co-founder & CEO**, said: > “India’s food system doesn’t break at the farm, it breaks in coordination. Small inefficiencies across aggregation, logistics, storage, and payment cycles compound into food loss, emissions, and income volatility. Our focus has been to redesign that middle layer using technology, data, and disciplined execution. The emissions avoided and food loss prevented this year are not parallel sustainability initiatives – they are operational outcomes of building a more efficient system. As we scale, our responsibility increases. This report reflects our commitment to measuring impact where it truly happens, inside daily transactions.” M**ehtab Singh Hans, Co-founder,** added: > “For us, impact cannot sit outside the business model. When INR 23.4 billion moves directly to farmers through predictable digital workflows, when nearly five lakh farmers are integrated into transparent transaction systems, and when traceability improves food safety – that is structural change. The five pillars outlined in this report: Carbon, Community, Consumer, Capability, and Credibility, are embedded into how we operate. They guide capital allocation, technology deployment, and partner selection. If supply chains are going to be resilient in the coming decade, accountability and efficiency will have to scale together.” **Tannya Garg, Head of Impact & ESG**, said: > *“Credible impact demands rigorous measurement, operational integration, and the willingness to confront hard data, especially in upstream agricultural systems where real change must happen. Our first in-house carbon accounting revealed that 99.99% of our emissions are upstream in agriculture. That clarity allows us to focus where real-world reductions matter. We are investing in stronger data systems so that impact measurement moves from estimation to precision over time.”* The report also details strengthened labour safeguards, real-time logistics monitoring, digital purchase order consent systems, and AI-led anomaly detection – embedding credibility into everyday commerce. As India advances toward climate and food security goals, FarMart’s integrated model demonstrates how technology-enabled coordination can drive measurable impact within complex agricultural systems. Testament to FarMart’s impact is Yogesh Suresh Sawai, a Village-Level Entrepreneur (VLE) based in Aurangabad, Maharashtra. He began his agri output business in 2022, managing 10-12 vehicle loads monthly. Despite strong farmer relationships, growth was hampered by working capital shortages, delayed buyer payments, price uncertainties – limiting his ability to scale volumes, especially during peak harvest periods. After joining FarMart in 2023, and with better pricing and reduced pressure, he committed to larger volumes and streamlined logistics. As a result, his monthly vehicle movement rose from 10-12 to 30+ with farmer reach expanded from 200 to over 2,000 enabled by reduced dependence on informal credit, improved planning. He shares, *“As my business has grown through FarMart, I have been able to scale operations, work with many more farmers, and run my business with greater stability. This growth has also helped me provide better for my family and invest in my son’s education, giving me the confidence to plan for the future.”* [ ![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** business --- ### [PNB Housing Finance Champions Environmental Sustainability with Miyawaki Forest Development in Greater Noida](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/pnb-housing-finance-champions-environmental-sustainability-with-miyawaki-forest-development-in-greater-noida/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Greater Noida, Mar 10:** PNB Housing Finance, through its CSR arm Pehel Foundation, launched the ‘Go Green’ initiative in partnership with CATCH Foundation and the Greater Noida Industrial Development Authority, to plant 1,00,000 native trees and develop a Miyawaki dense forest in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh.

Over the past few years, policymakers have moved beyond incremental changes and embraced structural reforms that address long-standing challenges in taxation, labour regulation, trade, and industrial development. The reform agenda introduced between 2025 and 2026 represents a strategic shift toward a more streamlined, transparent, and growth-oriented economic framework. Instead of expanding regulations, the emphasis has moved toward outcome-based governance—ensuring that policies deliver tangible benefits for citizens, businesses, and investors. These reforms are designed not only to accelerate economic growth but also to make the system more inclusive, enabling entrepreneurs, small businesses, and rural communities to participate in the country’s economic progress. ## A New Vision for Economic Governance India’s economic reforms are guided by a long-term vision of building a resilient, competitive, and innovation-driven economy. Policymakers have increasingly recognized that economic growth must be supported by efficient institutions, simplified regulations, and a predictable policy environment. The new wave of reforms reflects an effort to reduce bureaucratic complexity and modernize economic governance. Simplified taxation, digital public infrastructure, labour market reforms, and support for manufacturing are all part of a broader strategy to improve productivity and strengthen the country’s economic foundation. These reforms also seek to balance growth with inclusivity. While encouraging investment and entrepreneurship, the government has simultaneously focused on strengthening social security, rural livelihoods, and employment opportunities. The objective is to ensure that economic expansion benefits a wide spectrum of society. ## Transforming India’s Tax Architecture A major pillar of the reform agenda has been the modernization of the direct tax system. For decades, India’s income tax legislation had grown complex, with multiple provisions and legal interpretations creating compliance challenges for taxpayers. The introduction of the **Income Tax Act 2025** marks an important step toward simplifying the tax framework. The new law restructures the tax code by removing obsolete provisions, simplifying language, and reorganizing sections to improve clarity. One of its most notable features is the introduction of a unified **“tax year,”** replacing the earlier distinction between the “assessment year” and “previous year.” This change makes the system easier to understand and reduces confusion for both individuals and businesses. The reforms also reinforce digital tax administration. Faceless assessments, technology-driven compliance systems, and improved dispute resolution mechanisms have been introduced to enhance transparency and efficiency. By minimizing human intervention and reducing administrative delays, the new framework aims to build trust between taxpayers and the government. In addition to simplifying the tax code, the government has introduced relief measures for middle-income households. Higher income thresholds for tax exemptions under the new regime leave families with greater disposable income, encouraging consumption and investment in the domestic economy. ## GST Reforms and a Simpler Indirect Tax System Alongside direct tax reforms, India’s indirect tax structure has also undergone significant transformation through the evolution of the **Goods and Services Tax (GST)** framework. The latest reforms aim to simplify the GST structure by reducing the number of tax slabs and shifting toward a more streamlined two-rate system. By placing most goods and services into two primary categories—5 percent and 18 percent—the government has reduced complexity and minimized classification disputes that previously created compliance challenges. Lower tax rates on essential goods, healthcare products, educational materials, and household items have also contributed to reducing the cost of living. For businesses, simplified return filing systems and faster tax refund mechanisms have helped improve liquidity and reduce administrative burdens. At the same time, stronger digital monitoring and improved data integration have enhanced compliance and expanded the GST taxpayer base. The reforms demonstrate how technology can play a crucial role in modernizing tax administration while maintaining fiscal stability. ## Revitalizing Manufacturing and Industrial Growth Strengthening domestic manufacturing has become a key priority for India’s economic strategy. Recognizing that industrial development is essential for job creation and export growth, the government has introduced several initiatives to support manufacturing sectors. The **National Manufacturing Mission** represents a major step in this direction. The initiative focuses on improving infrastructure, reducing regulatory barriers, and supporting strategic industries such as electronics, semiconductors, advanced materials, and automotive components. Plans to develop specialized manufacturing clusters across the country are expected to enhance industrial productivity and attract both domestic and international investment. These clusters will provide integrated infrastructure, logistics support, and technology facilities that enable companies to operate more efficiently. By encouraging domestic production and strengthening supply chains, the government aims to reduce dependence on imports while increasing the country’s export competitiveness. ## Building a Domestic Semiconductor Ecosystem As the global economy becomes increasingly technology-driven, semiconductor manufacturing has emerged as a strategic priority for many nations. India has taken a significant step toward technological self-reliance through the expansion of the **India Semiconductor Mission 2.0**. The initiative seeks to build a comprehensive semiconductor ecosystem covering chip design, fabrication, packaging, and research. Substantial financial incentives have been introduced to attract investments in semiconductor fabrication plants and related industries. Developing a domestic semiconductor industry is expected to support several high-growth sectors, including electronics manufacturing, telecommunications, artificial intelligence, and electric mobility. By strengthening its technological capabilities, India aims to secure its position in global technology supply chains. ## Empowering MSMEs and Startups Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises form the backbone of India’s economy, contributing significantly to employment and innovation. Recognizing their importance, the government has introduced several reforms aimed at strengthening the MSME sector. The definition of MSMEs has been expanded to allow businesses to grow without losing access to policy benefits. Higher investment and turnover thresholds provide companies with greater flexibility to expand operations while continuing to receive financial and regulatory support. Access to credit has also been improved through expanded credit guarantee schemes and digital lending platforms. These initiatives help small businesses obtain financing for equipment purchases, technology upgrades, and expansion projects. In addition, digital platforms are being developed to allow MSMEs to manage registrations, tax filings, and compliance requirements through a single online interface. By simplifying regulatory processes, the government hopes to encourage entrepreneurship and accelerate the growth of small enterprises. ## Labour Reforms and Workforce Modernization India’s labour market reforms have focused on simplifying regulations while improving worker protection. Previously, labour laws were scattered across numerous legislations, creating complexity for both employers and employees. The consolidation of these laws into four comprehensive labour codes has created a more coherent framework covering wages, industrial relations, social security, and workplace safety. The new system provides greater clarity for businesses while extending social security benefits to previously unprotected workers, including gig workers and platform-based employees. The reforms also emphasize workplace safety standards, gender inclusion, and skill development programs aimed at preparing the workforce for emerging industries. By modernizing labour regulations, the government aims to create a more dynamic labour market that supports both economic growth and worker welfare. ## Strengthening Rural Livelihoods Economic reforms in India extend beyond urban industries and corporate sectors. Rural development policies remain central to the government’s strategy for inclusive growth. The **Viksit Bharat – Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission Act 2025** introduces a modernized framework for rural employment. The initiative guarantees up to 125 days of wage employment per household annually while emphasizing the creation of durable community assets. Projects under the program focus on water conservation, rural infrastructure, climate resilience, and livelihood enhancement. By linking employment with development projects, the initiative aims to strengthen rural productivity while improving incomes for rural households. Decentralized planning at the village level ensures that local communities play an active role in identifying development priorities, making the program more responsive to regional needs. ## Digital Governance and Ease of Doing Business A defining feature of India’s reform agenda is the growing use of digital technology to improve governance. Online platforms now allow businesses to apply for approvals, obtain licenses, and track regulatory processes through integrated digital systems. Digital governance has significantly reduced paperwork, minimized delays, and improved transparency in administrative procedures. These changes have helped create a more business-friendly environment and improved the overall efficiency of government services. Such reforms are particularly important for attracting global investors who seek predictable and transparent regulatory frameworks when making long-term investment decisions. ## The Road Ahead India’s recent economic reforms represent a comprehensive effort to modernize the country’s economic architecture. By simplifying taxation, strengthening manufacturing, supporting small businesses, and investing in technology-driven industries, policymakers are laying the groundwork for sustained economic growth. While global economic uncertainties continue to pose challenges, India’s reform-driven approach provides a strong foundation for resilience and competitiveness. The emphasis on digital governance, inclusive development, and industrial innovation suggests that the country is preparing for a future in which economic growth will increasingly depend on technology, entrepreneurship, and skilled human capital. As these reforms take shape, India’s economic transformation is likely to accelerate, bringing the nation closer to its long-term goal of becoming one of the world’s leading economic powers. **Categories:** News --- ### [Arduino Announces Arduino VENTUNO Q, Powered by Qualcomm Dragonwing IQ-8 Series](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/technology/arduino-announces-arduino-ventuno-q-powered-by-qualcomm-dragonwing-iq-8-series/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Nuremberg, Germany, Mar 10:** Ahead of Embedded World, Arduino announced the upcoming launch of its newest platform to democratize edge AI, Arduino® VENTUNO™ Q.

The campaign spotlights Pragati, an initiative designed to help women from underserved backgrounds build sustainable careers within the digital commerce ecosystem. Derived from the Sanskrit word for “progress,” Pragati is a six-month incubator program that trains women in the operational and digital aspects of running a modern retail brand. As part of the initiative, participants receive hands-on training in areas such as inventory management, packaging and customer support, order processing, and quality control—skills that are increasingly essential in today’s rapidly growing e-commerce sector. The program was introduced after Attrangi identified a gap in the evolving digital retail landscape. While the growth of e-commerce has opened up new employment opportunities, many women from underprivileged communities continue to face limited access to structured skill development and operational roles within the sector. Introduced as a pilot initiative by Attrangi, Pragati has already shown encouraging early results during its initial phase. The program has helped participating women gain hands-on exposure to the operational side of running a digital retail brand, building both confidence and practical skills. Encouraged by the response and engagement from participants, Attrangi plans to continue and strengthen the initiative beyond its initial six-month cycle. Currently being rolled out in Mumbai and Chennai, the program aims to gradually expand its reach and create more opportunities for women to access structured skill development within the digital commerce ecosystem. Through Pragati, Attrangi aims to create pathways for women to enter the digital economy while fostering an environment where they can build confidence, financial stability, and long-term professional growth. As part of the campaign, Attrangi also hosted “Court & Core: Her Edition” on March 8 at Serve Society, a community-focused wellness experience that brought women together through Pilates and Padel sessions. The event concluded with curated pop-ups including a nail bar and a jewellery showcase, celebrating self-care, connection, and modern womanhood. > **Commenting on the initiative, Vidushi Jain, Co-founder, Attrangi, said,**“At Attrangi, we’ve always believed that the true value of a brand lies in the lives it touches. Over time, we realised that one of our most meaningful contributions has been creating opportunities for the women who work with us and supporting their journey towards financial independence.” > > **Saloni Shah, Co-founder, Attrangi, added,“**Through Pragati, we wanted to build a system where women are not just part of the workforce but are supported in learning, growing, and creating stability for themselves and their families.” With the Pragati campaign, Attrangi hopes to encourage more brands to invest in initiatives that move beyond symbolic celebration and focus on creating real opportunities for women’s economic empowerment.

With consistent policy reforms, expanding industrial capacity, and rising global trade integration, India is steadily building a resilient economic foundation capable of sustaining long-term growth. Global institutions remain optimistic about the country’s economic prospects. According to projections from the International Monetary Fund, India is expected to maintain robust economic growth of around **6.4 percent in both 2025 and 2026**, reinforcing its status as one of the most dynamic large economies in the world. While global markets continue to face uncertainties—from geopolitical tensions to supply chain disruptions—India’s economic fundamentals remain strong. A combination of resilient domestic demand, stable inflation, expanding industrial output, and improving employment indicators continues to support the country’s growth trajectory. ## A Strong GDP Growth Story Gross Domestic Product (GDP) remains the most significant indicator of economic performance, reflecting the pace at which an economy expands. Recent estimates suggest that India’s **real GDP grew by 8.2 percent in the second quarter of FY 2025–26**, a substantial improvement compared to **5.6 percent during the same period in the previous fiscal year**. Earlier in the fiscal year, GDP growth stood at **7.8 percent in the first quarter**, indicating consistent economic momentum. During the first half of FY 2025–26 (April–September), India’s real GDP growth reached **8 percent**, up from **6.1 percent in the same period of FY 2024–25**. Growth has been supported by contributions across all three major sectors of the economy: - **Primary sector:** Moderate growth driven by agriculture and allied activities - **Secondary sector:** Strong expansion supported by manufacturing and construction - **Tertiary sector:** Continued growth led by services, finance, and technology industries The services sector in particular remains a key engine of growth, reflecting India’s global competitiveness in information technology, financial services, and digital innovation. ## Inflation Stability Strengthens Economic Confidence Another important aspect of India’s economic stability is the moderation of inflation. Inflation measured through the Consumer Price Index has shown a significant decline in recent months. By October 2025, CPI inflation eased to **0.25 percent year-on-year**, marking one of the lowest levels recorded in the current CPI series. The moderation was primarily driven by a sharp fall in food inflation due to improved supply conditions and declining prices of essential commodities. The easing inflation environment has helped strengthen consumer purchasing power and created favorable conditions for investment and consumption. The monetary policy stance of the Reserve Bank of India has also contributed to maintaining price stability while supporting economic expansion. Wholesale inflation measured through the Wholesale Price Index has also softened, reflecting declining prices in commodities such as crude oil, electricity, and certain industrial inputs. This decline has reduced input costs for businesses and supported manufacturing activity. ## Manufacturing and Industrial Growth Gain Momentum Industrial activity continues to play a critical role in driving India’s economic expansion. The Index of Industrial Production recorded **4 percent year-on-year growth in September 2025**, driven largely by the manufacturing sector. Manufacturing output expanded by nearly **4.8 percent**, supported by strong performance in key segments such as: - Basic metals production - Electrical equipment manufacturing - Automotive and transport equipment Growth in these sectors reflects rising domestic demand and increasing investment activity. Infrastructure development and construction activity have also supported industrial output, contributing to broader economic expansion. Government initiatives such as the Production Linked Incentive Scheme have significantly strengthened the manufacturing ecosystem by encouraging domestic production across multiple strategic sectors. Complementary programs such as Make in India and Skill India Mission continue to enhance industrial capabilities and workforce readiness. ## Expanding Employment and Workforce Participation A growing economy naturally creates opportunities for employment and entrepreneurship. India’s labour market indicators have shown encouraging signs of improvement. The **Labour Force Participation Rate** increased to **55.4 percent in October 2025**, marking a notable rise compared to earlier months. At the same time, the unemployment rate remained relatively stable at around **5.2 percent**, indicating a balanced labour market environment. Data from the Employees’ Provident Fund Organisation also suggests growing formal employment, with over **21 lakh net new members added in July 2025**. Private sector hiring trends further reinforce this momentum. The Naukri JobSpeak Index recorded a **10 percent year-on-year increase in September 2025**, reflecting strong demand for skilled professionals across industries. Emerging sectors such as artificial intelligence and machine learning have seen particularly strong hiring growth. ## Trade and Export Performance Strengthens India’s trade sector has also demonstrated resilience despite global economic uncertainties. Between **April and October 2025**, India’s cumulative exports—including merchandise and services—rose **4.84 percent to nearly USD 492 billion**. Several export categories showed notable growth, including: - Electronic goods - Marine products - Agricultural commodities - Processed food products India’s services exports remain a major contributor to the external sector. With strong global demand for technology and business services, exports in this category expanded significantly, reinforcing India’s role as a global hub for digital services. Policy initiatives such as the Foreign Trade Policy 2023 aim to further strengthen India’s export ecosystem by improving logistics infrastructure, expanding market access, and encouraging product diversification. ## Global Conflicts and Their Impact on Business and Trade Despite strong domestic fundamentals, global geopolitical tensions continue to shape the international economic environment. Ongoing conflicts such as the Russia–Ukraine War and the Israel–Hamas War have created disruptions in global energy markets, supply chains, and shipping routes. In addition, tensions affecting the Red Sea shipping corridor have led to higher freight costs and longer transit times for global trade. These developments have several implications for businesses: **Energy markets:** Conflicts in major oil-producing regions can lead to volatility in crude oil prices, increasing operational costs for industries such as manufacturing, transportation, and logistics. **Supply chain disruptions:** Shipping delays and route diversions affect global trade flows, forcing companies to reassess supply chain strategies and inventory management. **Investment uncertainty:** Geopolitical risks often influence global investment sentiment, potentially affecting capital flows into emerging markets. However, India’s diversified trade relationships, strong domestic consumption, and expanding services sector have helped cushion the economy from many of these external shocks. ## GST Reforms and Domestic Consumption Domestic consumption remains a key pillar of India’s economic growth. Recent reforms to the Goods and Services Tax system have simplified the tax structure and supported business activity. The introduction of a more streamlined tax framework—with fewer slabs and reduced rates in certain sectors—has helped lower costs for businesses while encouraging consumer spending. GST collections in **October 2025 reached approximately ₹1.96 lakh crore**, reflecting strong economic activity and improved compliance. Stable tax revenues also provide the government with greater fiscal capacity to support infrastructure development and social programs. ## Global Confidence in India’s Growth Prospects International financial institutions continue to express confidence in India’s economic outlook. Forecasts from leading organizations indicate strong growth potential in the coming years: - International Monetary Fund projects sustained growth above 6 percent - World Bank highlights strong domestic consumption as a key driver - Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development expects India to remain among the fastest-growing major economies These projections underline global confidence in India’s structural reforms, demographic advantage, and expanding digital economy. ## Looking Ahead India’s economic progress reflects a combination of sound macroeconomic management, structural reforms, and entrepreneurial dynamism. Strong GDP growth, improving industrial production, rising exports, and a stable financial system continue to support the country’s development trajectory. While global uncertainties—from geopolitical conflicts to shifting trade dynamics—remain challenges, India’s diversified economy and strong domestic demand provide a solid buffer. As the country advances toward becoming one of the world’s largest economic powers, its growth story is increasingly defined by innovation, resilience, and inclusive development. With sustained policy support and continued investment in infrastructure, technology, and human capital, India is well positioned to remain a key engine of global economic growth in the years ahead. **Categories:** business --- ### [Yatra Online partners with Aries Agro Limited to manage corporate expenses through RECAP](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/yatra-online-partners-with-aries-agro-limited-to-manage-corporate-expenses-through-recap/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Mumbai, Mar 10:** Yatra Online Limited announced its partnership with **Aries Agro Limited**, India’s largest and most respected manufacturer and marketer of Specialty fertilizers, with access to 9 million farmers growing over 107 different crops across 26 states in India to manage their **end-to-end employee expense management** through **RECAP**, Yatra’s AI-powered expense management platform.

A single all-inclusive price is disclosed to the patient or decision maker before admission, which covers everything from consultations, diagnostics, the procedure, monitoring to inpatient stay. In the case a doctor determines a longer stay is clinically warranted, the hospital absorbs the cost. Additionally, the procedures average 40–50% lower than market estimates for comparable surgeries at corporate hospitals in Bengaluru. Supersurgery is delivered at Superhealth’s state-of-the-art surgical facility in Koramangala, Bengaluru, which has been designed with a strong focus on safety and infection control. **Key features include:** - Unidirectional Central Sterile Services Department (CSSD) flow - Sterile airflow operating theatres constructed with surgical-grade steel - Private rooms only, eliminating cross-patient infection risk - Highly experienced surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses, and technicians - Advanced surgical equipment and monitoring systems One of the most frustrating experiences for patients in India is discharge day. Even after a doctor clears them to go home, patients typically wait five to six hours while billing, insurance approvals, and paperwork are completed. Superhealth redesigned this entirely. Through its Magic Discharge™ protocol, billing reconciliation, discharge documentation, and insurance pre-authorisation begin at the time of admission, not after clinical clearance. By the time a patient is medically ready to leave, the paperwork is already finished. The hospital has processed discharges with an average length of stay of 1.2 days, significantly lower than the national private hospital average of 3–5 days for comparable elective procedures. Supersurgery is operated on SuperOS, Superhealth’s in-house AI platform that coordinates clinical care, diagnostics, pharmacy, billing, and discharge. The system creates a single real-time chain of accountability inside the hospital — linking surgical decisions to clinical protocols, diagnostics to treatment pathways, and final billing directly to the price disclosed before treatment. This architecture eliminates the billing variability and operational fragmentation common in traditional hospital systems. Superhealth is building a new kind of healthcare system in India, one designed around transparency, trust, and operational precision. Backed by MS Dhoni’s family office, the company plans to expand the Supersurgery model across multiple neighbourhood hospitals in Bengaluru and beyond.

At a time when the sector is transitioning from cyclical volatility to a more formalised and regulated growth phase, the partnership is designed to bridge a long-standing gap between industry representation, credible market intelligence, and mass digital amplification. As capital flows become more institutional and regulatory frameworks more structured, the need for transparent, research-driven insight has become central to sectoral decision-making. This collaboration aims to position industry dialogue around verified data rather than anecdotal trends. Under the one-year Memorandum of Understanding, Magicbricks will serve as Knowledge Partner and Official Broadcast Partner via MBTV for NAREDCO initiatives. Together it will launch research reports, and various monthly co-branded newsletters, creating a unified pipeline for research dissemination that will help homebuyers navigate the market with greater confidence, clarity, and access to credible, data-backed insights. The partnership will see curation of multiple industry dialogues and amplification of the same. ***Dr. Niranjan Hiranandani, Chairman, NAREDCO, said:*** > *“The Indian real estate industry stands at a pivotal juncture, transforming into a transparent, data-driven, and institutionally robust sector. With tightening regulatory frameworks and more organised capital flows, access to accurate and timely market data has become indispensable. Our strategic partnership with Magicbricks underscores NAREDCO’s commitment to fostering informed decision-making through credible insights. This evolution empowers consumers, investors, and policymakers alike to navigate a complex market with clarity and confidence.”* ***Mr. Parveen Jain, President, NAREDCO, said****,* > *“The Indian real estate sector is entering a phase where policy alignment, regulatory clarity, and institutional capital are shaping long-term growth. In such an environment, credible data and structured knowledge exchange become essential. Our partnership with Magicbricks enables us to combine on-ground developer insights with robust market intelligence and digital reach. This collaboration will help foster informed dialogue between developers, policymakers, investors, and consumers, while strengthening transparency and confidence across the ecosystem. As the industry matures, data-led engagement will play a critical role in guiding sustainable and inclusive growth.”* ***Mr. Prasun Kumar, CMO, Magicbricks, said***. > *“The partnership recognises the need for building credible, data-driven insights and a meaningful content distribution platform. MB Research is one of the most credible real estate research partners for developers, while MBTV is the world’s leading online real estate channel with 1.75 million+ subscribers. For developers, it creates a structured platform for research-backed visibility and national amplification. For policymakers and stakeholders, it enables access to consolidated market insights that support informed dialogue. For the larger ecosystem, including investors and homebuyers, it reinforces transparency through consistent, data-driven narratives. The partnership will also be leveraged across multiple curated events and platforms to deepen engagement and widen the reach of these insights.”* As NAREDCO continues to represent developers and industry stakeholders under the aegis of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, the collaboration also aligns with the sector’s push towards professionalisation and stronger institutional frameworks. With this association, Magicbricks strengthens its evolution from a listings platform to a knowledge-led industry convenor — one that not only reflects market movements but actively contributes to shaping informed, policy-aligned discourse in Indian real estate.

Held at the iconic Rajasthan Polo Club, Jaipur, the tournament; dedicated to Brigadier HH Maharaja Sawai Bhawani Singh MVC, proved to be one of the most memorable editions yet. With the Carysil Suhana team lifting the championship title, the occasion brought together sporting triumph, distinguished company, and the timeless grandeur of Jaipur in a manner that will be long remembered. ![Carysil Jaipur Open Returns with a Curated Polo and Palace Experience](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/pry829h3yj.jpg) The Carysil Suhana team delivered a performance that had every reason to be celebrated. Advancing through the semi-finals with a confident score of 9 in 6 chukkers, the team carried that momentum all the way to a thrilling final against Vimal Arion and emerged victorious with a winning score of 12 in 6 chukkers, claiming the Jaipur Open 2026 championship in style. The team that made it all possible: Manuel Prado, Bhawani Singh Kalvi, Ashok Chandna, Matias Vial Perez, and Kuldeep Singh Rathore; each an integral part of the squad. In a fitting tribute to an outstanding tournament, Manuel Prado was honoured with the Most Valuable Player award, a testament to the brilliance he brought to every chukker. All players were felicitated in a proud and joyful ceremony held in the presence of Chirag Parekh, Chairman and Managing Director, Carysil, and Padmanabh Singh (fondly known as Pacho), an Indian polo player and head of the erstwhile Jaipur royal family, making the moment all the more special for the team and the Carysil family alike. Over the years, the Carysil Jaipur Open has evolved into a defining fixture on the country’s design and lifestyle calendar, and this year’s edition raised the bar even further. A wider and more distinguished guest list, fierce on-field competition, and an evening programme that moved from the polo grounds to the magnificence of City Palace came together to make the 2026 edition truly exceptional. The tournament brought together influential voices from the architecture and interior design fraternity, alongside channel partners, dealers, distributors, and members of the media. Elle Decor chronicled the celebrations across its print, digital, and social platforms, a reflection of the cultural resonance and industry credibility the Carysil Jaipur Open has come to command. The occasion was graciously hosted by Carysil’s leadership team: Rhea Parekh Jain, Vice President, International Marketing; Pavan Palkar, Chief Strategy Officer; and Shveta Sharma, Vice President, Sternhagen and Carysil B2B, whose passion and vision brought the event to life in the most memorable fashion. The Polo Cup was born from a natural and deeply felt alignment of values. Polo’s legacy of heritage, precision, and disciplined excellence mirrors Carysil’s own foundations as a German-engineered brand rooted in craftsmanship and considered design. The sport’s association with royalty, cultivated audiences, and international stature made it an instinctive home for a brand that engages closely with India’s most discerning architects, interior designers, and homeowners, and the 2026 edition was a vivid reminder of just how beautifully that association has flourished. > “For Carysil, luxury has never been about excess; it is about intention,” said **Rhea Parekh Jain, Vice President International Marketing**. “Our association with the Jaipur Open reflects a shared respect for craft, discipline, and legacy. From the polo field to the City Palace, the experience is designed to honour spaces where heritage and contemporary living coexist, and where design is felt as much as it is seen.” The celebrations did not end on the polo field. As the sun set over Jaipur, the evening moved to the breathtaking City Palace, an 18th-century royal residence and one of the subcontinent’s finest expressions of Rajput architecture and living heritage. Hi – tea at the polo grounds gave way to a formal dinner within the palace walls, before the night culminated in a spirited after-party at the historic Baradari. It was an evening as carefully considered as it was joyful; a fitting close to a day that embodied everything Carysil believes a premium experience should be: intentional, immersive, and utterly unforgettable.

The topics which were widely discussed this year were Edge Computing, Artificial Intelligence (AI), 5G Sustainability Data security, Cloud computing making it an ideal place to learn about the latest trends and technologies, and network with other professionals to discuss on Data Centre challenges. The last few years have seen a surge in usage of AI in various industries, which has increased workload and has driven unprecedented volatility in data center power systems. This has led to higher rack densities, rapid GPU load swings, which has resulted in higher thermal stress that is challenging power continuity and operational stability. Hence, ensuring uninterrupted energy supply is becoming essential to AI-driven facilities.

Oil prices plunged amid rising signals that the US might be seeking an end to the war with Iran, or at least exploring options to curb rising energy prices to avoid the political costs of the conflict. The ongoing revaluation of the energy complex may be significantly accelerated as a de-escalation narrative gains traction across major media outlets, potentially triggering a massive long-liquidation event. With the recent rally largely fueled by momentum-driven speculators rather than fundamental commercial hedging, the market is increasingly susceptible to a sharp unwinding of leverage. Should the prevailing supply shock thesis give way to an official ceasefire or war-ending resolution, the resulting mean reversion could be intensified by a rapid exit of these overextended speculative positions. According to Reuters, President Donald Trump is evaluating an urgent policy framework to mitigate crude oil volatility, as prices have breached the $100-per-barrel threshold following the launch of Operation Epic Fury. With the November midterm elections nearing, the White House is considering a multilateral strategic reserve release in coordination with G7 partners, alongside more aggressive measures such as export caps, futures market intervention, and the suspension of federal fuel taxes or Jones Act maritime restrictions. The Wall Street Journal reports that internal administration anxiety is mounting over the prospect of sustained triple-digit oil prices, which could trigger a significant political realignment if the conflict persists through the upcoming electoral cycle. Concurrently, the Washington Post highlights reporting from columnist David Ignatius regarding a Sunday high-level dialogue in which a senior Israeli strategist examined potential de-escalation pathways as alternatives to the President’s demand for unconditional surrender. These reports suggest the U.S. administration may have underestimated the operational complexity and potential duration of a conflict with Iran. This projected timeline likely exceeds the fiscal and logistical endurance of the United States, particularly concerning the depletion of precision-guided munitions and interceptor stockpiles required for domestic and allied defense. Consequently, there is a high probability that the administration will prioritize a strategic exit to conclude the hostilities. Furthermore, the highly speculative premium embedded in the recent crude rally suggests that a rapid mean reversion could occur if the current supply-disruption narrative falters. Data from the CFTC’s Commitments of Traders (COT) report highlights a significant divergence in market participation: non-commercial long interest (large speculators) in NYMEX crude surged 37%, climbing from 258,956 contracts on January 6 to 355,158 as of March 3. In stark contrast, commercial positions, which are traditionally held by industry players for delta hedging, remained nearly stagnant, increasing by less than 2% over the same period. This suggests the price action is driven by momentum-chasing financial flows rather than by fundamental physical demand, leaving the market vulnerable to a long liquidation or a large profit-taking event. A resolution to the current oil price war could refocus attention on the market’s weak fundamentals, both in the U.S. and globally, as indicated by recent data. This situation may further exacerbate oil losses. In my opinion, this conflict could be a long-term driver of declining oil prices. I believe one of the U.S. objectives in this struggle is to limit China’s energy imports. China is aware of this and may accelerate its transition to non-fossil fuel energy sources to reduce its reliance on the increasingly dominant U.S. supply. On the bull side, the ongoing conflict could increase the risk of major structural damage to oil infrastructure in the Gulf states and Iran, particularly as tensions rise. Since the weekend, attacks on oil facilities throughout Iran and the Gulf have become more frequent; however, they have not yet led to significant damage to upstream oil extraction or refining operations. **Categories:** business --- ### [Swiggy Launches the Third Edition of the Swiggy Restaurant Awards: Celebrates Culinary Excellence Across India](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business/swiggy-launches-the-third-edition-of-the-swiggy-restaurant-awards-celebrates-culinary-excellence-across-india/) **Published:** March 10, 2026 **Author:** team **Content:** **Bengaluru, Mar 10:** Swiggy India’s pioneering on-demand convenience platform announced the third season of **Swiggy Restaurant Awards**.

Through a fast-paced narrative that moves across high-intensity sorting hubs, large-scale logistics facilities and leadership discussions in the boardroom, “We Got This” captures the scale, complexity and rhythm of modern logistics while bringing into focus the women helping power that momentum every day. The film reflects a changing industry landscape where women are increasingly leading teams, managing hubs, overseeing operations and contributing to strategic decisions across the logistics ecosystem. Notably, the campaign features real DTDC employees and leadership from across the organisation. Bringing together voices from operational hubs, network management and corporate leadership, the film presents an authentic view of how the organisation is evolving from within. Sharing her perspective on the initiative, **Ankita Tiwari, Chief Human Resources Officer, DTDC**, said, > “Industries evolve when new voices lead. Today, a new generation is redefining logistics with sharper decision-making, deeper collaboration, and above all- inclusiveness. At DTDC, we witness this transformation daily. ‘We Got This’ acknowledges this shift and encourages more talented women to see logistics as a field where they can shape outcomes and build meaningful careers.” Storytelling of this scale and cultural sharpness is rarely seen within the logistics sector, which has traditionally focused communication on infrastructure and service delivery. With **“We Got This,”** DTDC positions logistics as a people-driven industry shaped by leadership, resilience and ambition. The campaign also reflects the company’s ongoing efforts to strengthen diversity across its network. From all-women branches near Mumbai to women-led dark store operations in Indore, DTDC has been expanding opportunities for women across roles traditionally viewed as inaccessible within logistics operations. Across the organisation today, women are managing hubs, leading operational teams, overseeing network performance and contributing to key business decisions. As DTDC marks 35 years of operations, the film reflects an organisation grounded in operational legacy yet evolving with the workforce it aims to build. More than a Women’s Day message, “We Got This” signals a broader shift in how logistics is perceived, not just as infrastructure and efficiency, but as a dynamic industry where talent, capability and ambition are shaping the future of how India moves. DTDC’s “We Got This” film challenges the stereotype of logistics as a male-dominated industry, showing how women across its wide network are leading teams and driving operations every day. In doing so, it shows how women are increasingly shaping the future of logistics. The film will be shared across digital platforms as part of DTDC’s Women’s Day outreach.

The Net Employment Outlook (NEO) for Q2 2026 stands at 68%, up 17 points from the previous quarter and rising 24 points year-over-year, marking its strongest reading since we started tracking in Q2 2008. India’s economic outlook remains robust, fueled by surging business confidence and resilient domestic demand. The combination of Goods and Services Tax (GST) reforms and strong economic growth projections for 2026 provides a solid foundation for businesses. Furthermore, improving trade prospects, like India-EU agreements and easing global trade tensions are set to support exports. Underpinned by these strengths, employer sentiment remains high, with widespread expectations for increased hiring. > *“The India data from the Q2 MEOS & 2026 Global Talent Shortage Report presents a dual reality. Employment intent remains strong (NEO – 68%), reflecting growing employer confidence, while talent scarcity continues to intensify, with 82% of organizations reporting difficulty finding the skills they need. This underscores that today’s hiring momentum is being shaped as much by capability gaps as by business expansion,” said **Sandeep Gulati, Managing Director, ManpowerGroup India and Middle East.*** *“Looking ahead, hiring decisions will be increasingly influenced by AI adoption and broader digital transformation. The strong intent to hire, alongside the measured deployment of AI, signals a maturing labour market – one that is balancing ambition with accountability,” said **Mr Gulati**. “As automation reshapes roles and learning delivers the highest return on AI investment, India is entering a phase where workforce strategy itself becomes a source of competitive advantage, evolving into an integrated model that combines targeted hiring, continuous upskilling, and technology-enabled talent management.”* **The NEO across Sectors and Regional Highlights** Indian employers across all sectors anticipate an increase in staffing levels in the upcoming quarter. Compared to last quarter and this time last year, employment outlooks have improved in 8 sectors and declined in 1. ·Majority of employers (74%) anticipate an increase in hiring, while 19% expect to maintain current staffing levels, 6% anticipate a decrease, and 1% are unsure. ·The most competitive sector in India is Finance & Insurance with an outlook of 71, rising by 8 points from last quarter and 26 points since Q2 2025. Globally, India ranks first for its employment expectations in the Finance & Insurance sector, above the sector’s global outlook by 36 points. ·The sector with the greatest increase since last quarter is Utilities & Natural Resources with an increase of 22 points. This quarter is the highest outlook recorded in Utilities & Natural Resources sector for 4 years, going back to Q4 2021 when it was 73. ·Hospitality (31%) signals the most cautious hiring intentions this quarter. ·In absolute hiring volume terms, Automotive sector anticipates’ the largest net additions to headcount followed by Information and Tech & IT services. ·Indian organizations in all 4 regions anticipate an increase in staffing levels in the upcoming quarter. The most competitive region is the North with a NEO of 70, rising by 12 points from last quarter and 26 points since Q2 2025. ·The greatest growth in expectations since last quarter is reported in the East region with an increase of 20 points. This quarter has the highest outlook recorded in East for over 10 years, going back to Q3 2012 when it was 79. ·All 6 organization size types measured in the report expect increasing staffing levels in the next quarter. Employers in large organisations with 250 to 999 employees are the most optimistic, with a NEO of 71 and growing by 15 points vs last quarter. Globally, India ranks first for its employment expectations in these organizations, above the global outlook by 34 points. **AI Adoption and Workforce Strategy** Beyond hiring intentions, the survey examined how employers are deploying AI across workforce strategy, finding widespread adoption but uneven returns. ·87% of organisations are already using AI in hiring, onboarding, or training new workers. Adoption is 80% in Asia Pacific, with particularly high usage in China (95%) followed by India. ·Learning and development deliver the highest perceived return on investment from AI, cited by 40% of employers. Team performance (21%) and Talent acquisition (16%) follow. ·However, expectations remain measured. Only 11% say AI fully meets expectations in hiring and training, while 4% report no positive ROI to date. Privacy and regulatory concerns (18%), workers’ lack of AI skills (11%), challenges identifying relevant use cases and insufficient company training (9% each), are the primary barriers to broader deployment.

Driven by ambitious renewable energy targets, supportive government policies, and declining technology costs, solar power has become a central pillar of India’s clean energy transition. From large solar parks to rooftop installations in homes and businesses, solar energy is transforming how the country produces electricity. However, as the number of solar installations continues to rise, a new question is gaining importance: **what happens to solar panels when they reach the end of their life cycle?** While solar energy is widely recognized as an environmentally friendly solution, managing aging and worn-out panels will be a crucial challenge for India’s renewable energy ecosystem in the coming decades. ### The Lifespan of Solar Panels Solar panels are designed to be durable and efficient for long periods. Most photovoltaic (PV) panels have an **average lifespan of around 25 to 30 years**. During this time, they gradually lose efficiency due to exposure to sunlight, weather conditions, dust, and environmental factors. Even after decades of use, solar panels may still generate electricity, but their performance declines. Many businesses and households choose to replace older panels with newer, more efficient models to maximize energy output. As early solar installations begin reaching this stage, the number of retired panels is expected to grow significantly. ### India’s Rapid Solar Expansion India’s solar energy sector has experienced remarkable growth over the past decade. The country now ranks among the world’s leading solar power producers, with thousands of megawatts of installed capacity across utility-scale projects and rooftop systems. Government initiatives such as solar parks, renewable energy incentives, and rural electrification programs have accelerated the adoption of solar power. While this growth supports India’s sustainability goals and reduces dependence on fossil fuels, it also means that **large volumes of solar panels will eventually need to be replaced or recycled**. Experts estimate that solar panel waste will increase rapidly as installations from the early years of India’s solar expansion begin reaching the end of their operational life. ### Can Solar Panels Be Recycled? One of the encouraging aspects of solar technology is that **many components of solar panels can be recycled**. Panels are made of materials such as glass, aluminium, copper, and silicon—many of which are valuable and reusable. Through specialized recycling processes, manufacturers can recover materials and use them again in the production of new panels or other industrial products. In fact, a large portion of a typical solar panel—primarily glass and metal—can be successfully recycled. Recycling not only reduces environmental waste but also helps recover valuable raw materials, making the solar industry more sustainable in the long run. ### Environmental Concerns of Solar Waste Despite their environmental benefits, solar panels can pose challenges if they are not disposed of properly. Some panels contain small quantities of substances such as **lead, cadmium, and other heavy metals** that may pose environmental risks if they enter soil or water systems. Improper disposal, such as dumping panels in landfills or dismantling them in informal recycling operations, could lead to environmental pollution and health risks. As solar adoption increases in India, experts emphasize the need for **structured recycling systems and safe disposal practices** to prevent such problems. ### India’s Regulatory Framework for Solar Panel Waste Recognizing the importance of managing solar waste responsibly, India has begun integrating solar panels into its electronic waste management policies. Under the **E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022**, solar photovoltaic modules and panels are included in the broader framework for electronic waste management. These rules introduce the concept of **Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)**, which requires manufacturers and producers to ensure proper collection, recycling, and disposal of solar equipment at the end of its life cycle. This policy framework aims to encourage responsible manufacturing and create systems for recycling and resource recovery. ### Opportunities for Solar Panel Recycling in India While solar panel waste presents environmental challenges, it also opens up **new economic opportunities**. As more solar panels reach the end of their lifespan, demand for recycling facilities and specialized waste management services will increase. This could lead to the development of: - Dedicated solar panel recycling plants - New jobs in green technology and waste management - Innovation in material recovery processes - Growth of a circular economy within the renewable energy sector Developing an efficient recycling infrastructure will be essential to ensure that solar energy remains a truly sustainable solution for India’s future. ### Extending the Life of Solar Panels Another approach to managing aging panels is extending their lifespan through proper maintenance and reuse. Regular cleaning, monitoring, and servicing can help maintain panel efficiency and delay replacement. In some cases, older panels that no longer perform efficiently for large projects can still be used in smaller applications such as rural electrification or off-grid systems. Researchers are also exploring innovative ways to **repurpose solar panels for construction materials and other industrial uses**, which could further reduce waste. ### The Future of Sustainable Solar Energy in India India’s solar revolution is a major step toward achieving energy security and reducing carbon emissions. However, the long-term sustainability of solar energy depends not only on installing new panels but also on **responsibly managing old ones**. By investing in recycling technologies, strengthening regulatory frameworks, and encouraging innovation in solar waste management, India can address the challenge of aging solar panels while creating new opportunities in the green economy. As the country continues its transition toward renewable energy, finding solutions for end-of-life solar panels will be essential to ensuring that **solar power remains both clean and sustainable for generations to come**.

Addressing the gathering at the inauguration of the 40th edition of AAHAR – The International Food & Hospitality Fair in New Delhi today, Shri Goyal said that India’s exports of food and agricultural products—including farm produce and fisheries—have reached nearly ₹5 lakh crore (over USD 55 billion) annually, making the country the seventh largest exporter of agricultural produce in the world. He noted that over the past eleven years, from 2014 to 2025, India’s agri and food exports have witnessed significant growth. Exports of processed foods have increased fourfold, fruit and pulses exports have tripled, processed vegetable exports have quadrupled, cocoa exports have tripled, and cereal exports have doubled. Rice exports alone have grown by 62 percent during this period. Shri Goyal said these achievements should inspire India to aspire for the top position globally in agricultural and processed food exports. He emphasized that the goal is achievable and aligns with the vision of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi that India should become the “food basket of the world.” The Minister highlighted that the nine Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) concluded by India over the past three and a half years have opened access to 38 developed and prosperous countries, providing vast market opportunities for Indian exporters. He added that India today has preferential market access covering nearly two-thirds of global trade, which strengthens India’s position as an attractive investment destination and enables Indian businesses to integrate into global value chains. Shri Goyal emphasized that while negotiating FTAs, the Government has carefully safeguarded the interests of domestic stakeholders, particularly farmers, fishermen and MSMEs. He said India has protected sensitive sectors such as dairy, where no concessions have been given to foreign producers. Similarly, genetically modified (GM) products have not been granted duty concessions or market access. He further clarified that key agricultural commodities such as rice, wheat, maize, soy meal and several varieties of pulses have been protected in trade negotiations. In the sugar sector, concessions have generally not been extended to prevent imports that could adversely affect India’s sugarcane farmers and domestic producers. The Minister said these measures ensure that India’s domestic strengths remain protected while new global opportunities are created for Indian products. He urged stakeholders connected with industry and the business community to spread awareness at the grassroots level about how India’s FTAs safeguard national interests while expanding international trade opportunities. Shri Goyal also encouraged farmers and entrepreneurs to take advantage of the ₹1 lakh crore Agriculture Infrastructure Fund and focus on food processing and value addition, which can enable farmers to access higher-value global markets. He noted that an increasing number of small enterprises are entering the food processing sector, creating new avenues for growth and employment. Highlighting the importance of international partnerships, Shri Goyal welcomed Italy as the partner country for the 40th edition of AAHAR and said that India should learn from best practices in Italy’s food and hospitality sector while also building collaborations with Italian companies. Such partnerships, he said, can help promote Indian cuisine, expand the global taste for Indian products and strengthen trade linkages. The Minister pointed out that Europe represents a major market for agricultural and processed food imports, especially with new trade arrangements that provide near-zero or very low duties on many Indian products. He also referred to opportunities arising from India’s agreements and partnerships with EFTA countries—Switzerland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Iceland—New Zealand, Australia, Japan, Korea, ASEAN nations, Oman, the UAE and Mauritius. He added that negotiations with Canada are progressing and discussions with the six-nation GCC group of countries in the Middle East have recently been launched. Shri Goyal noted that the EFTA agreement marks two years since its finalisation, further strengthening India’s access to global markets. The Minister congratulated the organisers and participants on the 40th edition of AAHAR, describing it as a landmark event for the food and hospitality sector. He said that for the first time AAHAR has a partner country, Italy, and also announced that the exhibition will be opened to the general public on the evening of Friday the 13th and throughout Saturday, allowing visitors, especially young people, to experience the strengths of the food, beverage and hospitality sectors from India and across the world. Shri Goyal encouraged exhibitors and participants to explore the entire exhibition beyond their own stalls, noting that such interactions can lead to new ideas, collaborations, packaging innovations and opportunities in manufacturing and business expansion. He assured exporters that under the Export Promotion Mission the Government will provide comprehensive support and handholding, including through the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) and other relevant divisions that promote Indian exports globally. Concluding his address, Shri Goyal expressed confidence that the combined efforts of farmers, fishermen, entrepreneurs and MSMEs will enable India to expand global trade, strengthen the “Made in India” brand worldwide, and significantly enhance farmers’ incomes while creating new opportunities for businesses.

Expectations that some oil-related sanctions could be relaxed have also weighed on prices, as it would increase available supply and ease current tightness. In addition, discussions among G7 countries about a potential coordinated release of strategic crude reserves have reinforced the downside pressure. At the same time, insurance coverage initiatives and possible military escorts for tankers could help stabilise shipping flows from the region. However, the short-term outlook remains uncertain, and price volatility is likely to persist as markets continue to react to incoming headlines. Supply from the Middle East is still exposed to disruption, particularly if tensions continue to affect maritime routes and energy infrastructure. Any prolonged restriction or closure of the Strait of Hormuz would significantly limit tanker traffic, forcing oil producers to curb output further due to storage constraints.

The recommendations were developed by a panel of India’s leading cardiologists, highlighting a shift from semaglutide’s earlier use in blood sugar management toward its broader role in modifying the progression of heart-related conditions. **Addressing India’s Unique Cardiovascular Risk Profile** The consensus emphasizes the need to address the distinctive **“Indian phenotype,”** where cardiovascular and metabolic risks appear earlier and at significantly lower body mass index (BMI) levels compared to Western populations. This vulnerability is largely driven by higher levels of **visceral fat**—fat stored around internal organs—and increased **insulin resistance**, even among individuals who may not appear obese according to traditional standards. To improve early detection and prevention, the expert panel recommends prioritizing **waist circumference** rather than relying solely on BMI. According to the consensus, waist circumference exceeding **90 cm in men** and **80 cm in women** should be considered a key indicator for early intervention to prevent heart attacks and strokes. **Clinical Evidence Supporting Semaglutide** The consensus draws on findings from major clinical studies, including the **SELECT Trial**, which demonstrated that semaglutide therapy can reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes by **20 percent**. Notably, approximately **two-thirds of this benefit** is attributed to reductions in internal inflammation rather than weight loss alone. In addition to cardiovascular benefits, semaglutide has shown potential to support **kidney and liver health** while regulating biological hunger signals in the brain, helping patients manage appetite and sustain weight loss more naturally. **Patient Groups Recommended for Therapy** The consensus identifies several patient groups that may benefit from treatment with semaglutide: - **Heart patients with obesity:** Adults with established cardiovascular disease who are overweight or obese, even without diabetes. - **Heart failure management:** Patients with obesity-related heart failure (HFpEF) to improve breathing capacity and daily activity. - **Multiple metabolic conditions:** Individuals with obesity combined with diabetes, hypertension, or lipid abnormalities. - **High-risk South Asian patients:** Those showing early metabolic damage despite relatively lower BMI levels. - **Sustained weight management:** Patients requiring meaningful and sustained weight loss. - **Secondary prevention:** Individuals with existing heart disease whose symptoms are worsened by excess body weight. **Recommended Dosing Roadmap** To ensure safe and effective use, the consensus provides a structured **five-step dosing pathway** designed to help patients gradually adapt to the therapy while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects: - **Weeks 1–4:** Initiation at **0.25 mg weekly** - **Weeks 5–8:** Increase to **0.5 mg weekly** - **Weeks 9–12:** Increase to **1.0 mg weekly** - **Weeks 13–16:** Increase to **1.7 mg weekly** - **Week 17 onwards:** **Maintenance dose of 2.4 mg weekly**, with **1.7 mg** as an alternative if the higher dose is not tolerated If a patient experiences difficulty tolerating a dose, the escalation may be delayed for more than four weeks to ensure safety and comfort. **A Long-Term Approach to Cardiometabolic Health** Recognizing obesity as a **chronic and relapsing biological condition**, the consensus positions semaglutide as a **long-term foundational therapy** rather than a short-term treatment option. By incorporating semaglutide into routine cardiology care, clinicians may be able to address the underlying metabolic drivers that contribute to India’s growing burden of cardiovascular disease. The consensus underscores the importance of integrating modern metabolic therapies into cardiovascular care strategies, with the goal of reducing long-term risks and improving overall patient outcomes across India.

The report notes that PE/VC investments remained resilient, clocking the second-highest value on record at US$60.7 billion across 1,475 deals. This translates into year-on-year growth of 8% in deal value and 9% in deal volume. This consistent performance, despite ongoing global uncertainty, highlights the underlying strength and resilience of India’s PE/VC ecosystem. ![India’s Private Equity and Venture Capital Market Remains Robust, Says EY–IVCA](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/xzfjy9qyq1.JPG) **Vivek Soni, Partner and National Leader for Private Equity Services, EY India said,** “The year 2025 was a true testament to the resilience and maturity of the Indian PE/VC landscape. Investor sentiment was shaped by a confluence of global and domestic factors like India’s key political developments, the post-US election environment, geopolitical tensions, and tariff-policy volatility under the Trump administration. These were further compounded by inflation‑management measures by the RBI and a sharply weakened rupee, all of which contributed to a cautious deployment environment. As we look ahead, India private equity venture capital trends 2026 will be defined by the interplay of geopolitics, domestic policy shifts, valuation rationalization and macro fundamentals. In the near term, it is a ‘wait‑and‑watch’ environment as investors assess market stability, earnings visibility and the narrowing of the bid–ask spread. The most important variable at the moment is the Iran-Israel-US conflict, its aftermath and its impact on LNG and crude oil prices and availability. But the medium‑ to long‑term outlook remains unequivocally positive supported by India’s strong structural fundamentals, a deepening corporate ecosystem, and sustained global investor interest in India’s growth story. We remain cautiously optimistic.” **Key highlights from the EY-IVCA Trendbook 2026** **1. Robust investment performance despite global challenges:**PE/VC investment activity maintained an upward trajectory in 2025, with total investment value rising 8% year on year (US$60.7 billion), supported largely by a strong rebound in growth and credit investments. Deal activity also strengthened, with the number of transactions increasing 9% year on year, marking the highest deal count ever recorded (1,475 deals). Growth investments led the momentum, registering a 56% increase in deal volume (282 deals), while the start-up segment saw a 19% rise (767 deals). In contrast, other investment categories credit, buyout, and Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE) deals experienced a decline compared to the previous year. **2. Sectoral allocation** Sector allocation in 2025 largely mirrored 2024 patterns. The top five sectors financial services, infrastructure, real estate, technology, and e‑commerce contributed 72% of total investments, consistent with last year. Financial services emerged as the largest sector, overtaking infrastructure. Infrastructure, which topped the list in 2024, moved to second place in 2025. Six sectors achieved all‑time high investment levels including financial services, Real estate, Food and agriculture, Automotive, Industrial products and Aerospace and defense. **3. Real Assets and Pure‑Play PE** Real assets (infrastructure + real estate) rebounded by 2% in 2025 after an 8% contraction the previous year. Pure‑play PE/VC investments grew 12%, moderating from 15% growth in 2024, continuing to form a key pillar of India’s deal pipeline. **4. PE/VC exits continued to rise for the third consecutive year** PE/VC exits surged to the second highest in 2025, totaling US$32.9 billion across 257 exits. Strategic exits rebounded, growing 211% year on year to reach US$16 billion, accounting for 48% of total exits during the year. **5. Fundraising activity touched a record high** Fundraising activity surged in 2025, reaching an all-time high of US$23.2 billion, a significant increase from US$9.8 billion raised in the previous year. The number of fundraises also hit a historic peak, rising 35% year on year to 123 fundraises, marking the highest annual count to date. **What could drive investor caution in 2026** Despite entering 2026 on a strong foundation, several emerging complexities could shape investor sentiment and slow the pace of capital deployment. Policy uncertainty remains a concern, as recent developments around US tariff adjustments for Indian exports—while directionally positive—still require clarity on operational guidelines, which continues to limit business‑planning visibility. Policy uncertainty remains a concern, as the recent reduction of US tariffs on Indian exports—from 25% to 18% following a Supreme Court ruling—has offered directional relief, but operational guidelines are still awaited, limiting business planning visibility. Equity markets have also shown heightened volatility post‑Budget, triggered by the increase in Securities Transaction Tax (STT), which has had a cascading effect on valuations and exit timeline. At a global level, evolving geopolitical developments continue to create pockets of uncertainty, particularly around energy markets, which may influence input costs and disrupt macroeconomic stability. Domestic corporate earnings too present a mixed picture, with early-2026 results revealing strength in financial services, IT, healthcare and industrials, contrasted by softness in energy, metals, mining and telecom. Adding to caution is the rupee’s depreciation to INR 92 per USD, which has raised concerns around return expectations for foreign investors. Finally, a widening bid–ask spread—driven by sellers holding firm on elevated valuation expectations while buyers exercise greater discipline—continues to delay deal closures. Together, these factors contribute to a more measured and cautious investment outlook for 2026. **Reading the field for 2026: The signals supporting India’s PE/VC outlook Again sentence case pls.** Despite short‑term uncertainties, India’s structural fundamentals continue to provide a strong foundation for sustained PE/VC activity in 2026. The country’s GDP is expected to expand at around 7%, keeping India among the fastest‑growing major economies. Monetary conditions are also supportive, with the RBI’s 125‑bps rate cuts in 2025 and inflation trending toward 4% creating an enabling environment for capital deployment. The Government’s continued capex push—reflected in the FY27 allocation of INR 12.2 lakh crore—will further strengthen infrastructure and manufacturing pipelines. At the same time, progress toward an interim India–US tariff agreement, reducing duties to 18% across key sectors, reinforces a constructive medium‑term outlook. Together, these drivers underpin a broadly positive investment environment for 2026.

Kidneys play a vital role in maintaining overall health by filtering waste, balancing fluids, regulating blood pressure and supporting several metabolic functions in the body. However, one of the biggest challenges with kidney disease is that it often develops silently. Medical experts warn that an individual can lose up to 90% of kidney function without noticeable symptoms, making early screening and preventive care critical. As part of its World Kidney Day initiative, Mankind Pharma is promoting awareness around kidney health and the importance of early detection through educational outreach and expert-led discussions. The initiative also focuses on encouraging individuals to proactively monitor key health indicators such as blood pressure, blood sugar and kidney function through simple diagnostic tests. India is currently facing a growing kidney health crisis. According to global health studies, nearly 138 million people in India are living with chronic kidney disease, making it the second-highest burden of CKD globally. Research also suggests that 13–17% of adults in the country may be living with some stage of kidney disease, many of whom remain undiagnosed until the condition has significantly progressed. The treatment burden is equally concerning. Experts estimate that India requires nearly 200,000 kidney transplants every year, but only about 13,500 transplants are performed, meeting less than 6% of the actual demand. The shortage of organ donors continues to be a major challenge, with India’s organ donation rate remaining below one donor per million population, far lower than many developed nations. In India, the rising prevalence of diabetes and hypertension continues to drive the growing burden of chronic kidney disease. Lifestyle factors such as high-salt diets, unhealthy eating habits and sedentary lifestyles further increase the risk. With India often referred to as the diabetes capital of the world, experts emphasise that individuals with diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity or a family history of kidney disease must be particularly vigilant about regular health check-ups. **Dr. Anant Kumar, Chairman – Urology, Renal Transplant and Robotics, Max Saket Complex and Uro-Oncology, MSSH Saket, said,** > “Chronic kidney disease often progresses silently and remains undetected until it reaches advanced stages. Individuals with diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity or a family history of kidney disease should undergo regular screening through simple tests such as blood creatinine, urine analysis and blood pressure monitoring. Early diagnosis plays a crucial role in slowing the progression of the disease and improving patient outcomes.” **Arjun Juneja, COO, Mankind Pharma said,** > “World Kidney Day serves as an important reminder that prevention and early detection are key to tackling the growing burden of kidney disease. By encouraging regular health screenings, promoting healthier lifestyle choices and raising awareness about kidney health, we aim to empower individuals to take proactive steps toward protecting their long-term health.” As part of the awareness campaign, the company is also highlighting the importance of following simple preventive practices for kidney health. These include staying physically active, maintaining healthy blood sugar levels, regularly monitoring blood pressure, following a balanced diet with controlled salt intake, staying well hydrated, avoiding the unnecessary use of painkillers and undergoing routine kidney function tests, particularly for individuals at higher risk. Experts stress that timely screening, better lifestyle choices and increased public awareness can play a critical role in preventing kidney disease and slowing its progression. With the burden of CKD continuing to rise globally and in India, World Kidney Day serves as an important opportunity to encourage individuals to prioritise kidney health and adopt preventive healthcare practices.

It builds upon DBS Bank India’s Women and Finance study, first introduced in 2024, which comprises four reports capturing unique insights from women across segments. It explores their autonomy in financial decision-making, key drivers and life goals, preferences for engaging with banks and digital financial apps, as well as their perspectives on career breaks, perceived work-life balance, retirement planning and long-term financial preparedness. Data from the survey suggests that financial decision-making increasingly sits with women themselves. Among the female entrepreneurs surveyed, **69% identify as primary decision-makers in financial matters, compared to 60% among rural women earners and 58% among HNW wome**n. The trend is more pronounced with age, particularly among HNW women and female entrepreneurs, indicating that confidence and control grow as experience accumulates. **Global connectivity emerges as a key factor for many urban Indian women when selecting a banking partner. The preference is strongest among female entrepreneurs, with 89% citing a bank’s international network as influencing their decision.** This trend is mirrored among **HNW women, 84% of whom view an institution’s global footprint as an important factor in their choice**. This preference is already reflected in their behaviour, with **81% of female entrepreneurs and 80% of HNW women surveyed already banking with global institutions.** These trends point to the fact that these cohorts value cross-border connectivity, whether for business expansion, investing or the reassurance of institutional scale. The study also shows that capital, while foundational, is not the only requirement for growth among the **female entrepreneurs** surveyed. Within this group, **44% value peer advisory and networking, 40% seek sector-specific mentorship, 33% want to strengthen investor connections to access growth capital, and 22% look for support on government schemes, and eligible grants or pitch competitions**. **Divyesh Dalal, Managing Director and Country Head, Global Transaction Services, Corporate Banking, Financial Institutions and SMEs, DBS Bank India, said**, > “Insights from the latest report in our Women and Finance study highlight the growing importance female entrepreneurs place on institutional credibility and global connectivity when choosing a banking partner. This reflects the value they place on trusted partners that can support cross-border ambitions, offer access to global markets and connect them to broader ecosystems.The findings also highlight that while access to credit continues to be an important enabler of growth, many female entrepreneurs are increasingly looking for support that goes beyond traditional banking services. Access to mentors, peer networks and investor connections is emerging as an important part of the journey as businesses scale. The insights underscore the importance of engaging with entrepreneurs in a more holistic way, combining financial solutions with ecosystem support that helps businesses grow meaningfully.” **Other key insights:** **Confidence levels in managing finances** 76% of rural women earners surveyed report feeling confident or very confident about managing finances, compared to 67% among HNW women and 58% among female entrepreneurs. Among women who do not make financial decisions independently, there is reliance on trusted personal relationships for financial advice. Of the HNW women surveyed, 55% turn to their spouse or partner for financial advice or guidance, compared to 50% of female entrepreneurs surveyed. This pattern rises to 73% among rural women earners. **Life goals** Among HNW women (64%) and female entrepreneurs surveyed (73%), buying a new home or property is a key priority, highlighting a strong preference for tangible assets and an affinity for home ownership. 73% of the rural women earners surveyed prioritise children’s education first as their life goal. **How women engage with banks** Digital platforms, including apps and websites, are the most preferred channels of engagement for female entrepreneurs (44%) and 29% of HNW women. HNW women tend to prefer a hybrid approach (36%), combining digital channels with in-person support. In contrast, rural women earners show a stronger preference for in-person banking, with 47% favouring branch visits. This is driven by trust in face-to-face interactions. **Digital adoption** Female entrepreneurs show the highest levels of digital adoption. Among those surveyed in this group, 84% use UPI, and 59% actively use digital financial tools such as banking apps. HNW women surveyed report UPI adoption at 77%, and 52% say they use digital tools such as savings and banking apps. Despite high smartphone ownership (82%), adoption of digital financial services remains limited among the rural women earners surveyed. Key barriers include low familiarity with apps (44%), fear of online scams (37%), and inconsistent connectivity (31%). **Career breaks** Among those surveyed, female entrepreneurs report a higher incidence of career breaks, with 46% taking breaks for family or personal reasons and 22% for voluntary reasons such as travel or upskilling. This compares with HNW women, where the figures stand at 36% and 15% respectively. These differences suggest that female entrepreneurs may use the flexibility of self-employment to pause, recalibrate or invest in personal development, while HNW women tend to experience more continuous career paths. **Retirement planning and financial preparedness** Among the female entrepreneurs surveyed, 39% expect to retire after the age of 50 years, 20% believe they may never fully retire, and 26% remain unsure. A similar pattern appears among HNW women, with 41% planning to retire after 50, 29% expecting lifelong engagement with work, and 12% uncertain about their retirement age. Rural women earners show comparable trends, with 42% expecting to retire after 50, 29% believing they will continue working indefinitely, and 19% remaining unsure. Among this cohort, 37% report having no long-term financial plan for retirement, while others rely on bank or post office savings (27%), formal pension schemes (23%), or informal instruments (13%).

Unlike many other eye conditions, glaucoma progresses quietly, often without noticeable symptoms until significant vision damage has already occurred. It gradually damages the optic nerve—the crucial pathway that transmits visual information from the eye to the brain. By the time a patient notices vision loss, the damage is usually irreversible. This makes glaucoma one of the most dangerous yet overlooked eye diseases worldwide. Glaucoma Awareness Week, observed from March 8 to 14, serves as an important reminder that protecting vision begins with awareness. The most powerful weapon against glaucoma is not just treatment—it is early detection. A simple, regular eye check-up can mean the difference between preserving sight and losing it forever. Globally, glaucoma is among the leading causes of irreversible blindness. It is estimated that more than 76 million people are living with glaucoma worldwide, and this number is projected to exceed 110 million by 2040 due to aging populations and increasing life expectancy. The challenge lies in the fact that nearly half of the people with glaucoma globally remain unaware that they have the disease because early stages rarely produce symptoms. India carries a particularly heavy burden of glaucoma. Current estimates suggest that around 11–12 million Indians are living with the condition, making it one of the most common causes of irreversible blindness in the country. Alarmingly, nearly 70–90 percent of glaucoma cases in India remain undiagnosed, primarily because people do not undergo routine eye examinations. In fact, approximately 1.2 million Indians have already lost their vision due to glaucoma, highlighting the urgent need for awareness and early screening. What makes glaucoma particularly concerning is its silent progression. In most cases, especially the common form known as primary open-angle glaucoma, the disease initially affects peripheral vision. Because central vision remains intact during the early stages, patients often do not realize that their field of vision is narrowing. By the time symptoms such as tunnel vision or blurred vision appear, a substantial portion of the optic nerve may already be damaged. The good news is that blindness from glaucoma can often be prevented if the disease is detected early. While lost vision cannot be restored, timely diagnosis and treatment can significantly slow or even halt the progression of the disease. Regular comprehensive eye examinations—especially for individuals above the age of 40, those with a family history of glaucoma, diabetes, high myopia, or long-term steroid use—are crucial for early detection. Proactive glaucoma screening and management rely on advanced diagnostic technologies and comprehensive eye evaluations. Early detection typically includes tests such as intraocular pressure measurement, optic nerve assessment, visual field analysis, and imaging techniques like Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT). These technologies enable ophthalmologists to detect even subtle structural changes in the optic nerve and retinal nerve fiber layer, often before any noticeable symptoms develop, allowing timely intervention to slow the progression of the disease and protect vision. Modern glaucoma management has evolved significantly in recent years. Treatment options now include highly effective medications in the form of eye drops, minimally invasive glaucoma surgeries (MIGS), advanced laser procedures such as selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), and precision microsurgical techniques. These interventions are designed to reduce intraocular pressure—the most important modifiable risk factor for glaucoma—thereby protecting the optic nerve from further damage. Glaucoma management today increasingly follows a personalized, patient-centric approach. Patients typically undergo detailed evaluation and risk assessment to determine the most appropriate treatment strategy based on the stage and type of glaucoma. Many advanced eye care centres across India are now equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic systems and surgical technologies that enable early detection and comprehensive management of the disease, helping doctors monitor progression closely and initiate timely interventions to preserve vision. Vision once lost cannot be regained, but with timely screening and expert care, it can certainly be protected. Let this week inspire us all to prioritize eye health and encourage our families and communities to undergo regular eye examinations. In the fight against glaucoma, awareness truly saves sight.

According to industry estimates, the Indian food processing market is expected to cross **$700 billion by 2030**, supported by government initiatives, improved supply chains, and increasing export opportunities. However, the success of food processing companies depends heavily on **consistent quality, safety, and compliance with regulatory standards**. In this competitive environment, quality control plays a crucial role in ensuring product safety while also improving operational efficiency and profit margins. For food processing companies in India, strong quality control systems are not just about meeting food safety standards—they are a strategic tool for reducing costs, strengthening brand reputation, and driving long-term growth. ### The Importance of Quality Control in Food Processing Quality control in the food processing industry involves **monitoring raw materials, production processes, packaging, storage, and distribution** to ensure that food products meet safety and quality standards. Food manufacturers must comply with strict regulations established by India’s food safety authority, including standards related to hygiene, labeling, ingredients, and storage conditions. These regulations aim to protect consumers and ensure the quality of food products available in the market. Without proper quality control systems, food processing companies risk product contamination, spoilage, customer complaints, and even regulatory penalties. ### Reducing Food Waste and Production Losses One of the most significant benefits of strong quality control in food processing is the **reduction of waste and production losses**. Food processing involves handling perishable raw materials such as fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy products, and meat. If these materials are not properly inspected or stored, they may spoil during production. Quality control helps manufacturers identify issues early, including: - Poor-quality raw materials - Contamination risks - Incorrect storage conditions - Packaging defects By addressing these problems at the early stages of production, companies can significantly **reduce waste, lower raw material losses, and improve profitability**. ### Ensuring Food Safety and Regulatory Compliance Food safety is one of the most critical aspects of the food processing industry. Contamination or safety issues can lead to product recalls, legal complications, and loss of consumer trust. Quality control systems ensure that food products meet regulatory standards related to: - Hygiene and sanitation - Ingredient safety - Shelf-life testing - Packaging and labeling compliance Companies that maintain strict quality standards are less likely to face regulatory penalties or recalls, helping them avoid costly disruptions and protect their profit margins. ### Improving Production Efficiency Quality control processes also help improve the **efficiency of food manufacturing operations**. When production processes are carefully monitored, companies can identify inefficiencies in machinery, processing methods, or workforce practices. This allows manufacturers to optimize production lines, reduce downtime, and increase productivity. Efficient production processes enable companies to **produce more goods without significantly increasing operational costs**, which directly improves profit margins. ### Strengthening Brand Reputation and Customer Trust In the food industry, **consumer trust is directly linked to product quality and safety**. Customers expect food products to be fresh, safe, and consistent in taste and quality. If a brand fails to meet these expectations, it can quickly lose consumer confidence. Quality control ensures that every batch of food products maintains the same standards in terms of: - Taste and texture - Nutritional value - Packaging quality - Shelf life When consumers trust a brand, they are more likely to make repeat purchases and recommend the product to others, which contributes to higher sales and long-term profitability. ### Expanding Export Opportunities India has become a major exporter of food products such as **spices, processed fruits, dairy products, ready-to-eat meals, and packaged snacks**. However, international markets require strict compliance with global food safety standards. Food processing companies that implement robust quality control systems can meet these requirements more easily. High-quality products improve a company’s ability to enter global markets and build long-term export partnerships, creating additional revenue streams. ### The Role of Technology in Food Quality Management Technology is playing an increasingly important role in modern food processing quality control. Many food processing companies are adopting advanced technologies such as: - **Automated inspection systems** - **Temperature monitoring sensors** - **Digital quality management systems** - **Data analytics for supply chain monitoring** These technologies help manufacturers track quality parameters in real time, detect issues early, and maintain consistent food safety standards. As a result, companies can reduce operational risks and improve efficiency. ### Building a Quality-Driven Food Processing Business For food processing companies, quality control must be integrated into every stage of the production process—from sourcing raw materials to delivering finished products to consumers. Leading companies focus on: - Supplier quality verification - Employee training in hygiene and food safety - Regular equipment maintenance - Strict process monitoring - Continuous improvement in quality management systems When quality becomes a core part of the organization’s culture, companies can maintain high standards while also improving profitability. ### Conclusion As India’s food processing industry continues to expand, **quality control will play a critical role in determining the success and profitability of companies in this sector**. Businesses that invest in strong quality management systems can reduce waste, improve production efficiency, ensure regulatory compliance, and build consumer trust. Ultimately, maintaining consistent product quality helps food processing companies **increase profit margins, expand into new markets, and achieve sustainable growth in an increasingly competitive industry**.

Autorox announced a strategic partnership with **Boodmo** to build a digitally connected aftermarket ecosystem- one that links repair shops, parts catalogs, sellers, and marketplaces in real time. With **2,000+** workshops in India, **Autorox** is the country’s largest digital garage network and currently operates across **40 countries**, with further expansion underway. ![Autorox and boodmo Partner to Build India’s first Connected Digital Aftermarket Ecosystem](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/byynbkgbkv.png) The announcement centres on a “**Discovery First**” workflow, a structured parts intelligence layer embedded natively within the repair order. From the moment a vehicle is diagnosed, workshops can identify the right parts, verify fitment, and view live availability across multiple sellers without leaving their repair workflow. Parts discovery has long disrupted repair flow. The aftermarket has refined almost every aspect of the repair process except this critical step, and Autorox and boodmo are resolving the problem at its core. Despite advances in repair tools and automation, parts discovery continues to disrupt workflow, forcing technicians to step outside the system to search catalogs and confirm availability. Autorox and boodmo are addressing this gap at its source, restoring speed, accuracy, and continuity to the repair process. The integration embeds a standardised digital parts catalog directly into the Autorox repair workflow. Now, once a vehicle is identified, workshops can discover the right part against a catalog aligned to vehicle and repair context, verify real-time inventory from sellers on the Autozilla platform, and surface live availability data to marketplaces like boodmo. The repair order evolves from a static document into a live, intelligent hub connecting diagnosis, parts discovery, and procurement in one continuous flow. **Vijay Gummadi**, Founder & CEO of Autorox, said the company has long believed the future of auto repair lies not in adding more software but in better-connected systems. “**India never waited for landlines or legacy banking – it leapfrogged straight to mobile and UPI. The aftermarket is at that same moment. Our partnership with boodmo is how we make that leap. By embedding real-time parts discovery directly into the repair workflow and linking it to live seller availability, we are eliminating guesswork and wasted time – and building a connected ecosystem that India’s aftermarket has never had before.**” For boodmo, the partnership addresses a foundational marketplace challenge: data accuracy.

Develops World’s First Palladium Hydrogen Membrane for Low-Temperature Purification** **Tokyo, Mar 10:** TANAKA Precious Metal Technologies Co., Ltd. announced the successful development of **HPM-L111**, the world’s first metal palladium (Pd) hydrogen permeable membrane capable of delivering high hydrogen permeation performance at low temperatures around **100°C**. The innovation enables high-purity and fast hydrogen purification at significantly lower temperatures than previously possible, helping reduce energy consumption and supporting the development of next-generation hydrogen technologies worldwide. ![TANAKA Develops World’s First Low-Temperature Palladium Hydrogen Membrane](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/rdbcs06xd6.png) Sample shipments of **HPM-L111** are scheduled to begin on or after **March 5, 2026**, with an initial production capacity of approximately **100 samples per month**. An academic presentation on the new product will be delivered during the **2026 Spring Meeting of The Japan Institute of Metals and Materials**, scheduled to take place from **March 11–13, 2026** at the **Chiba Institute of Technology**. The product will also be showcased alongside a panel display at the **H2 & FC EXPO – International Hydrogen & Fuel Cell Expo**, being held from **March 17–19, 2026** at **Tokyo Big Sight**. **Breakthrough in Palladium Hydrogen Membrane Technology** Palladium hydrogen permeable membranes are thin membranes made from palladium alloys that possess unique hydrogen absorption and permeation properties. These membranes are widely used for separating and purifying high-purity hydrogen in industrial processes. Traditionally, metal membranes require high operating temperatures—typically **300°C or higher**—to achieve effective hydrogen permeation. Through the application of advanced surface treatment technology, TANAKA has developed a membrane capable of delivering strong hydrogen permeation performance even at **temperatures around 100°C**. **Addressing Long-Standing Challenges** Among palladium-copper alloy membranes, the widely used **PdCu40 alloy** (containing 60% palladium and 40% copper) provides strong hydrogen permeation performance but requires operation at approximately **400°C** to achieve optimal results. This requirement increases costs due to additional heating systems and energy consumption. At lower temperatures, especially below **200°C**, hydrogen penetration speed typically declines significantly, limiting the practical performance of conventional metal membranes. To overcome these limitations, **HPM-L111** incorporates TANAKA’s proprietary surface treatment technology developed through decades of precious metal research. The membrane surface is engineered with microscopic jagged structures that increase the specific surface area, improving hydrogen penetration speed and significantly enhancing permeation performance at low temperatures. **Key Features of HPM-L111** - High hydrogen permeation performance at low temperatures around **100°C** - The world’s first metal membrane enabling high-purity hydrogen purification at this temperature range - Potential to improve the **accuracy of hydrogen sensors** - Supports **high-speed removal of hydrogen** generated within devices **Potential Applications** High-purity hydrogen permeation at temperatures around **100°C or lower** opens new possibilities for multiple hydrogen technologies, including: - **Hydrogen sensors**, where the membrane can improve detection accuracy by isolating interfering gases - **Fuel cells**, enabling efficient hydrogen management - **Vacuum equipment**, allowing hydrogen removal while maintaining low operating temperatures - **Hydrogen purification systems** By eliminating the need for heating processes previously required to reach **300°C or higher**, the technology also helps reduce energy consumption and contributes to **carbon neutrality goals**. Through innovations such as **HPM-L111**, TANAKA aims to support the advancement of a clean and efficient hydrogen ecosystem and contribute to the development of sustainable energy solutions worldwide.

After the death of their mother, Gustav attempts to reconnect with his family by casting Nora—an actress—in what he hopes to be his comeback film after years of creative silence. When she refuses, the decision opens old wounds and unresolved grief tied to their late mother. Trier masterfully explores grief, memory, and complicated family ties, crafting a film about the strange ways artists mine their own lives for inspiration. **One Battle After Another (Prime Video & JioHotstar)** Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, this political thriller boasts Leonardo DiCaprio in the lead as Bob, a former revolutionary living off the grid with his daughter while grappling with paranoia and the ghosts of his radical past. But when unfinished conflicts come back to haunt him, Bob finds himself pulled into a relentless chase that forces him to fight through his past mistakes to protect his daughter. Mixing tension, dark humour, and social commentary, the film blends suspense with biting commentary on activism, identity, and the cost of living outside the system. **F1 (Prime Video & Apple TV+)** Few films delivered spectacle quite like F1 last year. The film is a high-octane racing drama starring Brad Pitt as a veteran Formula One driver who returns to the sport years after a career-ending accident. Joining a struggling team alongside a young rookie driver, he seeks redemption on some of the most demanding racetracks in the world. Filmed during real Formula One race weekends with unprecedented access to the sport, the film combines breathtaking racing sequences with an inspiring story about mentorship, rivalry, and the relentless pursuit of victory against all odds. **Hamnet (Prime Video)** Directed by Chloé Zhao, Hamnet is a historical drama based on Maggie O’Farrell’s acclaimed novel, inspired by William Shakespeare’s family life. Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal portray Agnes and William Shakespeare as they navigate life after the devastating loss of their young son, Hamnet. Set in 16th-century England, the film brilliantly portrays grief, love, and artistic creation, imagining how this personal tragedy may have inspired Shakespeare’s writing of Hamlet. The Oscars may last only one night, but the films that shape the conversation continue long after the ceremony ends. If you are catching up on the year’s most talked-about titles, these five nominees offer everything from haunting drama to pulse-racing spectacle.

The day begun with my waking up at about 1am to a cacophony of market alerts, crude benchmarks barrelling higher, stocks falling off a proverbial cliff, and a general vibe of ‘Armageddon’ to the price action. The day ended with the equity dip having been bought convincingly on both sides of the pond allowing stocks on Wall St to notch notable gains, the dollar having erased all of its earlier haven bid, Govvies well off intraday wides, and crude benchmarks settling back under $100bbl. What was the trigger for that dramatic turnaround, I hear you ask. Well, G7 countries signalling that they may release crude from their strategic reserves will certainly have helped, even if replacing a ‘flow’ (Hormuz) with a ‘stock’ (SPRs) is clearly a stopgap measure at best. Furthermore, we had a round of relatively positive comments from President Trump, who told CBS that the war is ‘pretty much complete’ and that the US is ‘very far ahead’ of the 4-5 week timeframe that was originally outlined. Per those same reports, Trump is reportedly also mulling a plan to ‘take over the Strait Hormuz’, presumably alluding to the potential for navy escorts to be provided. Chuck all that together, and you end up with a pretty powerful combination. One where the risk aversion seen at Sunday’s open proved rather ‘over the top’, and was then coupled with this Pavlovian-like response among market participants, who’ve been conditioned not only to ‘buy the dip’, no matter how modest such a dip might be or how the macro backdrop may look. On top of that, the environment remains one where nobody wants to get ‘caught short’, lest those in charge miraculously start to act rationally, and ‘solve’ whatever the prevailing issue du jour may be. That said, it remains the case that, for the time being at least, everything hinges on geopolitical developments, chiefly the status of transit (or lack of) through the Strait of Hormuz, and the duration that it could remain impassable. This, in turn, will determine the scale and duration of any inflationary impulse that we see, the degree to which growth headwinds are posed, as well as any potential central bank response. On that latter point, my base case remains that the majority of policymakers seek to ‘look through’ the temporary impact of higher energy prices on headline inflation metrics, and that the market pricing both BoE and ECB tightening this year is unwise. Zooming out, though, while positioning is clearly skewing the signal sent by STIRs to a huge degree, the fundamental issue here is that the distribution of potential geopolitical outcomes is simply enormous right now. One can make a case for anything from ‘this ends right now’ to ‘this drags on for years’, and almost anything in between, with that whole spectrum being entirely plausible right now. This wide distribution, in short, means that there is massive uncertainty as to which path will be taken, and in turn leads to it being almost impossible to accurately price risk. It is, hence, logical, that participants have sought to adopt something of a more cautious stance, taking down risk exposures, cutting position sizes, and reducing the duration for which trades are held. The key question, of course, is for how long does that remain the mindset? To me, changing that overall stance probably doesn’t need conflict to come to an end, but it likely does need some sort of an ‘off-ramp’ to become visible, or at the very least flows through Hormuz to be restored to some degree. As a result, then, unless either of those latter points were to become clear, the overall tone should remain cautious, and cagey, with participants continuing to position themselves defensively – benefitting the USD, primarily, as the only real haven in town right now. Still, while that is likely to be the case in the short-term, on a more medium-term view I remain constructive when it comes to equities, with the underlying bull case remaining a solid one, albeit with participants needing geopolitical noise to be dialled down a few notches before being able to refocus on it. **LOOK AHEAD** – Data continues to matter little in the grand scheme of things, and there isn’t much of it on the docket today in any case. The US provides last month’s existing home sales report, which is never a market-mover at the best of times, in addition to selling 3-year notes, which should be absorbed relatively well. Of more interest are likely to be earnings after the close from Oracle (ORCL), with the stock having more than halved since the September peak amid worries over debt-financing, and broader fading of the ‘AI euphoria’. Options on the stock price a punchy +/-10.5% move after market, with the bar likely being a very high one indeed to reassure participants that all is ‘fine and dandy’, amid ongoing worries that the companies has simply expanded too much, too quickly.

With its large base of working professionals, entrepreneurs and urban families navigating demanding lifestyles, Mumbai is a strategic market in the growing preventive wellness and ergonomic solutions category. The store is designed as a full-scale experiential hub rather than a conventional retail outlet. The space integrates the brand’s core verticals like Home, Walk, Work, Orthotics and Mobility in an integrated yet differentiated format, enabling customers to engage with products through guided trials and hands-on exploration. A key highlight of the store is its diagnostic-led approach to comfort. It features advanced foot analysis and in-house podiatrist consultations, allowing customers to receive real-time insights into pressure distribution, arch support and posture alignment. The Mumbai outlet reinforces this commitment to personalized wellness by offering structured product discovery experiences built around education, validation and informed decision-making. **Ganesh Sonawane, Co-Founder & CEO at Frido, said,** > *“Mumbai is a city that operates at an intense pace. Long commutes, extended work hours and high-performance lifestyles make preventive comfort solutions more relevant than ever.

As one of the fastest‑growing lifestyle destinations in the western suburbs, we continue to bring in brands that add value and create enjoyable experiences for our customers.”* The Mumbai launch is part of Frido’s larger Phase 1 retail roadmap to build a strong network of experience-led stores across major Indian metros. As the brand works towards scaling to 100 stores by FY27, its offline expansion is driven by a clear consumer shift that while discovery begins online, customers increasingly seek physical validation before purchasing ergonomic and mobility solutions. The new store addresses this need through guided trials and expert-led engagement, strengthening Frido’s omnichannel presence as it expands its national footprint.

It represents one of the few scalable clean fuels capable of replacing fossil fuels across energy-intensive sectors such as steel, refining, fertilisers, chemicals, and heavy transport. However, the high cost of producing green hydrogen remains one of the biggest barriers to widespread adoption. A large portion of these costs stems from inefficiencies within the electrolyzer stack—particularly the electrode—where much of the system’s performance loss occurs. At the same time, India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission has set an ambitious target of producing **5 million metric tonnes of green hydrogen annually by 2030**, highlighting the need for domestic innovation in electrolyzer components. Founded in **2021** and headquartered in **Bengaluru**, Newtrace has developed **Voltagen**, a proprietary advanced electrode technology designed for alkaline water electrolyzers. The technology enhances energy efficiency, extends system lifetime, and helps reduce the overall cost of hydrogen production. As a drop-in replacement for existing electrodes, Voltagen allows electrolyzer manufacturers and hydrogen producers to upgrade system performance without requiring significant design changes. Newtrace also offers **membraneless electrolyzer technology** as part of its broader innovation platform. The company primarily serves electrolyzer OEMs, green hydrogen project developers, and industrial gas companies, supporting India’s rapidly expanding electrolyzer manufacturing ecosystem as well as global customers seeking higher efficiency and more resilient supply chains. Voltagen is built on three key technology pillars: - **High-performance catalytic architecture** engineered at micro and nanoscale levels to improve efficiency - **Durable coating systems** designed to ensure long operating life under industrial conditions - **Scalable manufacturing processes** enabling commercial-scale production These innovations help reduce energy consumption per kilogram of hydrogen produced while extending electrode life and providing a domestic alternative to imported components. Newtrace was founded by Prasanta Sarkar and Rochan Sinha, who bring deep expertise in electrochemistry, materials science, and industrial scale-up. The company operates from a **30,000 square-foot technology centre in Bengaluru** and is supported by a multidisciplinary team of more than **45 engineers and scientists**. It has filed multiple patent applications and has received recognition under India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission. Newtrace has also showcased its technology on global platforms, including a presentation before Narendra Modi during **National Startup Day 2026**. > “Green hydrogen’s cost problem is fundamentally a materials and manufacturing challenge,” said **Prasanta Sarkar**, CEO and Co-Founder of Newtrace. “Voltagen represents a new materials foundation that enables the efficiency and durability required to make green hydrogen cost-competitive. This funding will allow us to transition from proving the science to scaling manufacturing.” > > **Rochan Sinha, CTO and Co-Founder**, added, “We built Newtrace to address one of the most critical yet underinvested components of the electrolyzer stack. Our focus now is on translating this technology into reliable and scalable manufacturing capable of serving the global hydrogen economy.” The newly raised capital will be used to support **pilot-scale manufacturing, customer validation, supply agreements, and the expansion of engineering and manufacturing capabilities**. Newtrace expects to begin **initial commercial deliveries of Voltagen electrodes within the next 12 months**, positioning the company to play a key role in the evolving global hydrogen ecosystem.

Evenings are about people. The moment Iftaar wraps up, the energy shifts. Homes open up & invitations flow. Plans extend as one step out to meet friends, visit family, or host at home. The day slows down, but Shaam (the evening) comes alive. And that is where style quietly matters. Most of us plan the outfit. The kurta gets ironed. The dupatta is chosen carefully. The watch, the fragrance, the small details get attention. Footwear often gets picked in the last minute rush. ![Flite’s Stylish Picks for Perfect Ramadan Evenings](https://api.newsinpics.com/uploads/7rmm00nlnq.jpg) But it is one of the first things people notice. This Ramadan, we let our evenings feel intentional from head to toe. Here are four styles that help you become Har Shaam Stylish, without overthinking it. **1. The Cream Triple-Buckle Slide** The soft cream upper paired with gold buckles makes this slide feel upscale without trying too hard. It works beautifully with pastel kurtas, light salwar sets, or even a minimal co-ord. The structured straps give it a neat silhouette. The cushioned base supports long evenings where conversations stretch past dessert. Whether you are hosting or stepping out for Iftaar, this pair feels composed and refined. It is the kind of footwear that quietly pulls your entire look together. **2. The Olive Printed Double-Strap** The olive straps balance beautifully with the vibrant printed base. It adds colour without overpowering your outfit. Pair it with solid tones and let the footwear do the talking. The wide straps sit comfortably on the foot, and the base feels stable for extended wear. Ramadan evenings often mean moving between spaces, greeting guests, standing for long chats. Comfort becomes important. This pair blends playfulness with practicality. It feels festive without feeling loud. **3. The Tan Suede Double-Buckle** This tan suede-finish slide carries a soft, textured look that complements deeper colours like maroon, emerald, or navy. The metal buckles add detail, while the finish keeps it classic. It works especially well for slightly dressier gatherings. When your outfit leans traditional, this pair supports the mood without distracting from it. The footbed feels gentle, making it suitable for evenings that start at sunset and extend well into the night, thus making it simple alongside thoughtful & reliable. **4. The Deep Brown Multi-Strap Slide** The deep brown tone feels grounded and versatile. The layered strap design gives it definition, making it ideal for more tailored festive looks. It pairs well with darker ensembles and textured fabrics. The shape offers a secure feel, which helps when you are on your feet greeting guests or moving between homes. It is understated but confident. The kind of footwear that completes your presence without demanding attention. **Why Do Our Evenings Deserve More Attention?** Ramadan evenings are not rushed moments. They are shared moments. They are about stepping into someone’s home with warmth. About sitting together after a long day of fasting. About laughter, dua, and connection. When you dress for the evening with intention, the entire experience feels elevated. And footwear plays a bigger role than we often admit. *The right pair does three things:* • It complements your outfit without clashing. • It supports your feet through long hours. • It makes you feel put together without effort. When footwear looks this considered, getting ready feels easier. The outfit feels complete. You move differently. You carry yourself differently. That is the idea behind ***Har Shaam Stylish*.** [![](https://businessnewsthisweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Markets-%E2%80%A2-Economy-%E2%80%A2-Entrepreneurs-Visit-Stay-Informed.jpg) ](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/) **Categories:** News --- ## Pages ### [Business News for Profit – March 2026 Edition](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business-news-for-profit-march-2026-edition/) **Published:** March 6, 2026 **Author:** admin **Content:** --- ### [Business News for Profit – February 2026 Edition](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/business-news-for-profit-february-2026-edition/) **Published:** February 19, 2026 **Author:** admin **Content:** --- ### [Contact](https://businessnewsforprofit.com/contact/) **Published:** November 5, 2025 **Author:** admin **Content:** ### Get in Touch ***Business News for Profit – Monthly Business Magazine.*** We love to hear from our readers, contributors and partners.
