Kashyap, known for pathbreaking films like Black Friday, Gangs of Wasseypur, Ugly, Raman Raghav 2.0, Manmarziyaan, and Bombay Velvet, amongst others, is amongst the leading filmmakers and producers in the country.

These videos can then be viewed and voted on by the MContent community, consisting of consumers and investors worldwide. Top-rated projects will then be shortlisted, and four will be selected. The winners will have the opportunity to be mentored by Anurag Kashyap and other leading filmmakers and ultimately have their dream film project produced and exhibited by MContent.

    “With this program, the winning content creators selected will not only be getting the funding needed to bring their film projects to life but also invaluable experience working under the tutelage of an award-winning filmmaker,” notes MContent, founder and CEO Umair Masoom. “Anurag Kashyap is one of Bollywood’s finest, and his participation in this program is emblematic of the calibre of talent we at MContent are looking to partner with for our unique #Watch2Earn content streaming platform and custom cinema for the metaverse, the MContent Cineverse.”

    MContent developed its Watch2Earn and MSeed technology platforms to address aspiring filmmakers’ funding and mentorship challenges. For the current program, Anurag Kashyap taped a special video explaining how the platform works and how to participate in his inimitable style, seen here.

  • Indian genz and millennial love for metal now extends to cards

    Indian genz and millennial love for metal now extends to cards

    Read Time:5 Minute, 27 Second

    Jon Wilk, CEO & President, CompoSecure Inc.

    Financial institutions in India and Indonesia have the greatest opportunity to create a positive image of banks, secure new customers and improve retention by offering a metal card

    New Delhi/Somerset, NJ – June 11, 2022 –CompoSecure, Inc. (Nasdaq: CMPO), a leading provider of premium financial payment cards and cryptocurrency and digital asset storage and security solutions, released a new report based on an independent global survey from Edgar, Dunn & Company and commissioned by CompoSecure. The Asia Pacific region consistently ranked highest among the countries for awareness, interest and importance of metal cards.

    The survey found that metal payment cards are one of the best tools for financial institutions to bolster brand loyalty, attract new customers and establish positive brand interactions. The survey further identified India and Indonesia as two of the top nations with awareness and affinity toward metal payment cards. Both countries had the highest percentage of customers who would feel positive about their banks because they offered metal cards, significantly higher than the average survey respondent (89% vs. 58%).

    A staggering nine of 10 consumers in India (91%) would select an offer that includes a metal payment card if all rewards and benefits were equal, which is up 6% from a prior Edgar, Dunn survey completed in 2019. This was the highest percentage of all regions surveyed and much higher than the global average of 70%. Other Asia Pacific regions also showed a strong preference for metal cards: 82% of Indonesia, 82% of China, 76% of Hong Kong and 71% of Singapore.

    The survey also points to metal cards as an important decision-making trigger for the Asia Pacific consumer’s choice of financial institution in conjunction with a strong loyalty and rewards program. Key survey findings for the Asia Pacific region included:

    • Customer Retention–Financial institutions offering metal payment cards are better able to keep their customers. India and Indonesia were among the top nations (72%) that took their desire for metal cards further by indicating they would leave their bank for another that offered a metal payment card, assuming the payment card benefits and rewards were equal. Wealthy consumers in Indonesia have the greatest inclination (92%) to leave their bank for one that offers a metal card.
    • Customer Awareness – Awareness of metal cards also grew 11% in the Asia Pacific region from the prior survey. India had the highest awareness of metal cards at 76%, which also had the highest growth of 18%. Most of the Asia Pacific countries had greater awareness than the global average of 41%, including: China 65%, Indonesia 59%, Singapore 49% and Japan 46%.
    • Affluent Consumers – Financial institutions can better target wealthy customers by offering a premium metal payment card solution. Metal cards would be the card of choice for affluent consumers in Indonesia (97%) and India (94%), if the benefits and rewards were equal to plastic options. The majority of wealthy customers in Indonesia (97%) and India (93%) also would feel more positive about a bank for offering a metal card.
    • Future Customers– Banks in Asia Pacific may be able to attract younger customers by offering metal cards. The preference for metal cards spiked among millennials (ages 25-34) across all the regions, and particularly in the Asia Pacific region, with those surveyed in China (89%), India (88%), Indonesia (85%) and Hong Kong (81%) preferring a metal card.
    • Recycled Metal– The report also indicated a global climate mindset, with an overwhelming majority (72%) of respondents saying they would choose a payment card made of eco-friendly materials if all rewards and benefits were the same. This was particularly true in India (91%) and Indonesia (84%), which were among the top countries concerned about sustainability. CompoSecure’s premium metal card products should be of particular interest since they contain 54% post-consumer recycled material, made from an average of 65% post-consumer recycled stainless steel.
    • Metal Attraction– According to survey respondents, the top two reasons consumers are attracted to metal payment cards are the durability and innovative design. However, metal cards also are associated with exclusivity and luxury in many countries. This is especially true in India (49%), Indonesia (42%) and China (41%).

    Methodology

    The global survey of 18,000 people in 18 markets around the world was commissioned by CompoSecure and conducted by Edgar, Dunn & Company, an independent global strategy consulting firm specializing in payments and digital financial services. This latest 2021 study validates data from an initial study from 2019, reinforcing the value and demand for metal payment cards and the risks of customer attrition for banks only offering plastic products.

    Edgar, Dunn & Company’s Metal Card Consumer Study encompasses documentation of the financial industry and consumer trends along with an original survey to gauge and validate consumer demand and card issuer interest in metal cards. Edgar, Dunn & Company surveyed 18different markets (Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland, Russia, Singapore, Turkey, U.S. and U.K.) to present a holistic overview of the sentiment towards metal cards.

    June 11: The growth of the Indian startup ecosystem has been exponential over the years. This year is also going good, as 17 more Indian startups have entered the coveted unicorn club, taking the total number of Indian startup unicorns to 102.

    That’s quite a feat! But that has not been the case always.

    Understanding the issue, Shruti Aggarwal, a qualified Company Secretary, started The StartupLab (TSL), an all-in-one destination for everything a startup needs, in 2018.

    Janani.Life launches Kindly, aims to raise awareness on sexual performance for men and hormonal wellness for women

    Emerges as the first Asian brand to launch an at-home semen testing service

    Aims to make hormonal and sexual wellness accessible to all

    New Delhi (India), June 9: Sexual performance and hormonal health contribute to an individual’s mental, physical, and social well-being. Kindly, a brand that provides a healthy and productive lifestyle to all, has launched first-of-its-kind sexual wellness and hormonal health-focused services. A holistic sexual performance and a lifestyle brand for all, offers discreet, non-judgmental, convenient, end-to-end solutions.

    Kindly is the first Asian company to focus on sperm health and launch an at-home semen testing service and a full-stack service that includes doctor consultations, nutraceuticals, and at-home diagnostics to address lifestyle orders. On a mission to raise awareness and spark conversations around its value proposition, the brand has recently onboarded renowned Bollywood actor Dino Morea as its Director of Impact.

    Previously operating in the reproductive health space, Kindly’s founders Nilay Mehrotra and Raj Garg identified a gap in the market after graduating from the Y Combinator 2022 batch and realized that men and women are looking for help beyond reproductive health. They are seeking comprehensive lifestyle solutions that boost their productivity, self-esteem, and overall health. Kindly has pioneered at-home semen testing with top-of-the-line technology that has been used by more than 3000 customers in the past 2-3 months alone.

    Nilay Mehrotra, CEO, Kindly said, “After graduating from Y Combinator batch 2022, we realized we need a more robust brand which can address multiple lifestyle disorders, sexual performance, and hormonal wellness. Hence, we built a more holistic full-stack solution around men and women’s overall performance and lifestyle conditions. Through Kindly, we are working on creating a safe platform for men and women to talk about sperm health, menstrual health, and overall sexual performance without fear of being judged and get the proper guidance and treatment from empathetic experts.”

    Keeping in mind both the genders; Kindly has been categorized as Kindly His and Kindly Hers. Kindly His predominantly leads the conversation about sexual performance, sperm health and other lifestyle disorders. Likewise, Kindly Hers focuses on women’s holistic wellness, offering products and services for sexual, menstrual and hormonal wellness.

    The Bengaluru-based startup blends technology and empathetic medical expertise to provide an end-to-end research-backed solution for sperm health and sexual performance for men, PCOS, irregular periods and period pain for women, and low libido for both men and women.

    On the back of its massive traction, the brand is eyeing category expansion while growing its presence from 5 cities to 40 cities in the next couple of months. Focused on providing at-home diagnostics and treatment, Kindly plans to amass 130 million consumers in India and expand its services to the global markets by the end of this year.

  • Understanding the impact of Cookieless targeting in digital advertising

    Understanding the impact of Cookieless targeting in digital advertising

    Read Time:3 Minute, 23 Second

    Mr. Akaash Ramakrishnan, Co-Founder and COO, Adskate

    New Delhi (India), June 9: The pandemic forced people to work from home and created a work-life culture that is now considered a norm. Additionally, people began consuming more video content through the pandemic. In 2020, it was estimated that 9 out of 10 viewers wanted to view more video ads from brands and businesses. Moving on into 2022, it is predicted that an average person will be spending 100 minutes watching online content per day. These data points are indicative of the fact that advertisers and brands have to be swift in deploying online ads across different domains, streaming platforms, and apps.

    A customer’s need to consume online content exponentially increased during the pandemic. It was estimated that 1.1 billion people worldwide were subscribed to a video streaming platform. In other words, this sort of exponential growth rate has led video streaming platforms to think of creative ways to advertise to potential customers.

    Additionally, advertisers have to ensure that the ads that they are deploying are personalized and based on what the viewers are consuming at that moment. This accelerated growth has given rise to OTT marketing.  CTV and OTT platforms are using their platforms to promote products and services. As CTV and OTT platforms are used more programmatically, it will enable advertisers to focus on specific demographics, lifestyles, geography, and income to deliver ads that are tailored to a consumer’s taste and expectations.

    According to e-Marketer, In 2020, CTV ad spending reached $14.4bn USD, and this was close to a 60% increase compared to the previous year. For brands and advertisers, CTV and OTT realm has proven to be a new medium and method to reach out to their audience in a personalized manner. Additionally, OTT/CTV marketing provides the capability of advertising on a content level, and the users do not have to be bound by geographical restrictions. For example, Top Gun: Maverick can be advertised in India on HotStar and, at the same time, be advertised in the US on Amazon Prime. This enables the advertiser to have maximum reach while having an optimal ad spend.

    Since TV viewing consumption has shot up tremendously, the upfront cost for CTV ad spending has grown quickly too. By the end of 2022, the advertising ad spends for CTV/OTT will be hovering at the $5 billion mark.

    CTV and OTT advertising is the best method to increase brand awareness. Recently, Kantar produced a research study that stated that ad spending on CTV and OTT for political campaigns in 2022 had reached $1.2 billion. Advertisers are making it a point to ensure that their messaging touches different screens within a single household.  This tremendous spike in ad spending is changing the way marketers are planning, purchasing, and executing campaigns in the TV world.  But with this tremendous growth, we are noticing ad fraud increasing.

    Recently, a report was published by the IAB (Interactive Advertising Bureau) that 63% of advertisers buy ad inventory directly from publishers, and 61% use programmatic exchanges to make buys. Unfortunately, purchases made through a programmatic marketplace have ad fraud associated with it. Advertisers are beginning to allocate budgets for ad fraud too. This is beginning to inflate advertising budgets.  Many different measurability and viewability companies in the market space are trying to combat this problem. Measurability and viewability companies are trying to work with premium publishers to study where every single impression has been served and try to weed out the impressions that do not match the specific KPIs that the advertisers have set in place. The methodologies applied currently are a stop-gap to a bigger problem of how to prevent ad fraud.

    With the growth of CTV and OTT, it is imperative that the advertising ecosystem build a robust system to protect itself from outliers. CTV and OTT advertising is here to stay, and advertisers have to ensure that they are savvy and agile to keep up with the growing demands of their audience.

  • InfoBahn, a Self Commerce Startup, Introduces a DIY Platform as a Shopify Alternative

    InfoBahn, a Self Commerce Startup, Introduces a DIY Platform as a Shopify Alternative

    Read Time:3 Minute, 0 Second

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 8: InfoBahn, a DIY e-commerce platform, is revolutionising how e-commerce websites are built by enabling anyone without any technical knowledge to start an e-commerce website in only three steps in 3 minutes. The company is set to create waves in the industry. InfoBahn is not only an easier and more sophisticated alternative to Shopify for the world but also one that is radically changing the e-commerce website landscape. The platform offers easy-to-use drag-and-drop design tools and clickable features, which are also highly customisable. Infobahn’s business model is a SaaS-based model where users pay a monthly subscription fee and get access to the many themes and features. It also integrates over 200+ platforms such as Zapier, Zoho, and Instagram. Safe to say, these add-ons are only a few of many to yet be launched.

    It’s 2022 and even today, building an e-commerce website is a complex, expensive, and long-winded process. The lack of technical know-how amongst business owners adds to this pain point. Moreover, the platforms that are easy to use don’t have the required features and the ones that do, don’t offer simple processes. 8 out of 10 Shopify websites need some form of coding, significantly increasing the initial setup cost.

    It’s also important to note that e-commerce website creation is not a one-time service. Brands constantly need to change the design and features as seasons and collections change. Now, seeking the help of a developer for this task ends up incurring extra costs and inconvenience. InfoBahn resolves this by allowing the user to implement these changes as and when needed with ease and without any technical knowledge or help.

    Indian platforms like Dukaan & DotPe are great ordering solutions for restaurants and grocery stores. However, when you want to establish yourself as a brand, you need more than just an ordering solution; that is where InfoBahn steps in. The platform caters to brands that need a full-fledged, comprehensive e-commerce solution with more customisation options, design tools, and other complementing features.

    “We need a platform that is so simple to use that if you know how to use Microsoft Word and Gmail, you should be able to create an e-commerce website too. Infobahn is all set to redefine the global e-commerce game. Over the next three years, we aim to onboard 2 million brands globally,” says Ibrahim Rumani, founder at InfoBahn.

    The platform’s vision aims for India to become the global leader in e-commerce that not only serves your technological needs today but also supports and adapts to the needs of tomorrow.

    “We not just aim to get users on our platform but change the landscape, which requires us to do more. Hence we regularly conduct workshops where people can upskill and learn e-commerce website building. These workshops are free-of-cost and open-to-all. Anyone can sign-up for these workshops at www.infobahn.io ”, said Yashvi Mundhra, the head of operations.

    The Indian D2C market is estimated to cross the $100Bn mark by 2025, and startups like InfoBahn will play a significant role in achieving this.

    They believe that by building tools that are extremely easy to use and affordable, more entrepreneurs and solopreneurs will be encouraged to see through their ideas and turn them into businesses, in turn accelerating the growth of India. InfoBahn aspires to empower India with quality and scalable e-commerce tech that becomes the backbone of every Indian and global business.
