New Delhi [India], October 28: Two years ago, Noel identified a problem – students, especially in India, had little to no understanding of even basic finance. Inspired by his father, who works in the finance industry, he recognised a widespread problem: financial illiteracy. Determined to make a difference, he began developing what would become Finfluent – a free, AI-based platform that simplifies finance for people of all backgrounds.

What started as a small project has now evolved into a powerful educational initiative with nearly 10,000 active users and over 1,200 sign-ups, reaching students, families, and educators globally.

A Mission Rooted in Equity

Finfluent’s mission extends beyond just teaching finance – it is built on the ideology of making education available to everyone. The platform has various tools such as an AI financial chatbot in 50+ languages, a spending and stock tracker, interactive lessons, and personalised action plans that help users take constructive steps to improve their financial health.

National Recognition

FinFluent’s innovation has not gone unnoticed. The platform was recently recognised in the Top 40 startups in Samsung’s Solve for Tomorrow Competition, and further distinguished itself in the Top 10 AI startups – selected from 20,000+ applicants nationwide. This achievement will provide his startup with an ₹8 lakh grant for further development,

Through partnerships with schools and NGOs, Finfluent has also conducted financial literacy workshops, equipping young people with the tools to make better financial decisions.

A Young Changemaker Leading the Way

Noel Juby Chandy stands as an inspiring example of how determination and purpose can drive meaningful change. What began as a simple idea to make financial literacy accessible has evolved into a global movement empowering thousands of young people to take control of their financial futures.

As Finfluent continues to grow and impact lives across schools and communities, Noel’s journey proves that age is no barrier to innovation. His story is a reminder that anyone can create lasting change. Through his vision, he’s not just teaching finance; he’s inspiring a generation to believe that real change begins with one idea and the courage to act on it.

Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], October 28: Jayakumar K R and Prof. Alain Abran today announced the release of their groundbreaking new book, “Managing Innovative AI Projects: The Imperative for AI-Specific Project Management.” This essential guide addresses the critical industry crisis where an estimated 85% of AI projects fail, not due to flawed technology, but due to the misapplication of traditional project management methods. It is the first book of its kind to deliver a comprehensive, process-driven framework designed specifically for the unique complexities of artificial intelligence initiatives.

Drawing on decades of combined experience in software engineering and metrics, the authors provide a vital field guide for leaders. The book moves beyond theory to offer actionable strategies, including a scalable AI Project Life Cycle (APLC), tailored risk mitigation for technical and ethical challenges, and a robust set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). It equips project leaders, C-suite executives, and technical teams to successfully shepherd AI projects from concept to value realisation, ensuring they are not only innovative but also trustworthy, scalable, and successful.

Endorsements from industry leaders underscore the book’s practical value.  Sankaran Venkatramani, Partner at KPMG India, calls it  “an indispensable guide… a strategic compass from concept to successful deployment,” while Kevin Moran, Business & Technology Executive in the USA, praises it as “a practical, accessible guide… a valuable reference for project leaders seeking to maximise the business, research, and ethical benefits of AI initiatives.”

“Managing Innovative AI Projects” is available now in India in paperback and hardcover via Notion Press, priced at Rs. 399 and 499, respectively. The Kindle edition and international paperback are available globally on Amazon.

New Delhi [India], October 18: In a world where the digital scroll never stops, the ISAC CopConnect Round Table on Cyber Resilience invited the nation to pause — to reflect, to protect, and to empower. The virtual session, held on October 18, 2025, brought together thought leaders from the fields of law, policing, education, banking and cybersecurity to discuss India’s growing need for digital safety and mental well-being in the online age.

Launch of “ScrollControl” — A National Call for Cyber Wellness

The highlight of the session was the launch of “ScrollControl”, a nationwide initiative designed to protect children in cyberspace and foster responsible digital behaviour among youth.

The program aims to:

* Protect children online through innovative awareness campaigns and creative competitions.

* Empower parents and educators with insights to make informed digital choices.

* Recognise schools and communities that champion cyber safety and digital wellness.

The initiative is a collaborative effort by ISAC CopConnect, in partnership with CERT-IN, AICTE, and supported by Zscaler, GTPS, and Panjab University.

Priyanka Sharma Leads with Purpose

The “ScrollControl” initiative was formally launched by Priyanka Sharma, the acclaimed Indian actress known for her impactful performances in Savaari (2020), Tantiram (2023), Pelli Kani Prasad (2025), and the upcoming #Viralprapancham (2025) — a film centred around cybersecurity and digital privacy.

Speaking at the event, Priyanka Sharma said,

“Children are the world’s most valuable resource and its best hope for the future. We can’t afford to let that valuable resource be shaped by the negative impact of technology. Parents must guide their children — and to do that, they must first be enabled. The Scroll Control project truly resonates with me, and I am delighted to contribute to creating a safer cyberspace for children.”

Voices from the Cyber Resilience Round Table

The session featured insightful discussions led by:

* Adv. Prem Kamath, Advocate, High Court of Kerala

* Rahul Alwal, IPS

* Dr. Arundhati H, Educational Consultant

* Aman Nugyal, CISO, IWPB (HSBC)

Moderated by Priyanka Vaidyanath, Head of CopConnect, the round table explored ways to strengthen India’s cyber resilience through collaboration, awareness, and digital literacy. Experts emphasized that awareness is the foundation of resilience in the modern digital era.

Ms Sheeba Sivakumar, GM ISAC, and an experienced Academic Administrator, said, “Gen Z needs to go slow on the scroll time, and ScrollControl is aiming to achieve that while enabling the parents at the same time”

Building a Safer Digital Future

“Scroll Control” is more than an initiative — it’s a movement to make cyberspace safer, smarter, and more human. By engaging schools, parents, and communities, the program aims to transform the digital ecosystem into one that protects and nurtures rather than exploits young users.

Swetha R Prasad, a leading Kannada Actress also extended her support to the movement.

As the event concluded, participants echoed the session’s core message:

“The digital world never stops scrolling. Today, we pause — to protect, to empower, and to begin change.”

New Delhi [India], October 11: What started as a visionary proposal for a coffee table book for a well-known Indian Bank by Tapan Thakkar in December 2022 has evolved into one of India’s most promising product-tech startups, NFCfied.

In just 3 years, NFCfied has spread awareness to transform how thousands of businesses connect, present, engage, and grow with a single tap.

The Spark of Innovation

While curating a flagship coffee table publication for a top-tier Indian bank, Tapan Thakkar proposed integrating tap-to-view video technology using NFC, a bold idea that would soon become the foundation of NFCfied.

Co-founder Aayush Barmecha joined the venture to build an ecosystem of tap-enabled smart tools that would redefine the process of sharing information and building brand impressions.

With a team of six young technocrats as their final year project, they began curating the technology platform, followed by branding, website, and social media presence, laying the groundwork for a new way of professional and personal interaction in the world.

From Cards to Customized NFC Ecosystems

NFCfied’s first innovation was the NFC-enabled Smart Card, a sleek, tap-based alternative to outdated paper business cards. Offered in PVC, Bamboo, and Metal formats, these cards allowed users to share all their contact and digital presence with just a tap, which further required no additional app on their phone.

As the brand matured, NFCfied introduced NFC standees, designed for Google Reviews, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and many more custom platforms. Furthermore, a full-fledged company profile smart standee was introduced, making it a favorite among retailers, office receptions, and exhibitions.

Today, businesses not only equip founders and managers, but also entire sales teams, HR departments, and brand ambassadors with customized NFCfied products for smarter client interactions.

Innovating Weddings: The World’s First Multipurpose Smart Invitation Using NFC

NFCfied recently launched what’s being called a revolution in wedding tech, the world’s first NFC-enabled, multi-purpose wedding invitation card. From RSVPs to couple stories, maps to themes, gift registries to live streaming, photographs, this tap card delivers everything guests need on their smartphones, instantly.

This product has already started gaining traction across India’s booming wedding industry, disrupting traditional invites in both luxury and sustainable segments.

A Global Product with Local Impact

Despite being proudly built in India, NFCfied has found global resonance. Their cards and products have reached clients in the USA, UK, Canada, UAE, Germany, and more.

From local entrepreneurs to international creators, the NFCfied ecosystem is being used across industries, from retail, tech, and fashion to healthcare, hospitality, and even temples.

Tap. Track. Transform.

What makes NFCfied stand out isn’t just its products, it’s the intelligence behind the tap.

Every interaction is measurable through a robust analytics backend. Businesses gain data on tap rates, engagement, and link performance, making every card and standee not just interactive, but insightful.

Looking Ahead

With plans to expand deeper into cinemas, restaurants, co-working spaces, event agencies, and strategic wedding partnerships, NFCfied is on a mission to build an ecosystem where every tap creates value.

Whether you’re a corporate leader, freelancer, influencer, or couple planning your wedding, NFCfied offers a permanent, eco-friendly, and powerful solution to share your identity.

Two Founders. One Vision. Infinite Possibilities.
NFCfied is not just a product, it’s a movement shaping the future of human-brand interaction.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 9: MumbaiHacks 2025, organized by the Tech Entrepreneurs Association of Mumbai (TEAM) and Made in Mumbai, a non-profit developers community, returns with its most ambitious edition yet, challenging India’s brightest tech minds to harness the power of Agentic AI. Scheduled for November 28-29, 2025 at NESCO Mumbai, the hackathon will offer up to ₹50 lakhs worth of prizes and rewards for teams that can build intelligent, autonomous models capable of solving real-world problems across three critical sectors, Healthtech, Fintech and Misinformation.

Following its achievement of the Guinness World Record for the Largest Gen AI Hackathon last year, MumbaiHacks 2025 will shift its focus to the next frontier of artificial intelligence: Agentic AI. Unlike Generative AI, which creates content based on prompts, or traditional AI that follows pre-programmed rules, Agentic AI represents a paradigm shift towards autonomous systems. It can perceive their environment, make decisions, take actions, and continuously learn without constant human intervention. These intelligent agents can proactively identify problems, devise strategies, and execute solutions, marking a transformative leap in how technology interacts with complex, real-world challenges.

The hackathon provides participants access to capital, mentorship, and high-impact networks, empowering tech enthusiasts, early professionals, and future founders to build, launch, and scale their innovations.  It will feature three high-impact tracks, each focused on solving critical, real-world challenges through autonomous and intelligent solutions. In the Healthtech track, participants will design predictive hospital management systems capable of responding to dynamic conditions such as festivals, pollution spikes, and epidemics. These agentic systems will analyze multiple data streams to forecast patient surges and proactively recommend optimal staffing levels, supply allocations, and public advisories—helping healthcare facilities stay prepared and resilient in times of uncertainty.

The Fintech track will challenge teams to build adaptive financial coaching agents that learn from individual user behavior, synthesize diverse financial data sources, and deliver personalized, real-time recommendations. This innovation is particularly vital for gig workers, informal sector employees, and others with irregular income patterns who often remain beyond the reach of conventional financial advisory systems.

The Misinformation track will push innovators to create AI agents capable of scanning vast content ecosystems to detect emerging misinformation trends during crises; be it pandemics, conflicts, or climate events. These systems will verify claims through cross-referencing and generate accessible, contextual explanations to help audiences navigate a flood of conflicting information with greater clarity and confidence.

MumbaiHacks 2025 exemplifies the city’s rapid transformation into India’s most dynamic startup ecosystem. With over 3,000 participants expected and backing from 85+ unicorns and soonicorns through TEAM, the event positions Mumbai as the next major tech and startup powerhouse. The city’s entrepreneurial momentum is backed by impressive fundamentals: 67% of Mumbai’s unicorns are profitable, (the highest in India) and AI-driven enterprises are projected to contribute 15% of the city’s GDP growth by 2035. With 250+ AI startups incubated at IIT-Bombay and top engineering institutions producing 35,000+ engineers annually, Mumbai is nurturing the next generation of AI innovators.

Naiyya Saggi, Governing Council Member, TEAM spokesperson shared, “Agentic AI is the technological intersection where innovation meets autonomy. Beyond standard content generation, we’re building next-gen systems that think, adapt, and act independently to solve critical problems. MumbaiHacks 2025 will challenge and inspire participants to move beyond passive AI tools and create intelligent agents that can transform healthcare delivery, financial inclusion, and information integrity. This is a direct glimpse into the future of AI, replete with its possibilities, and Mumbai is leading the charge.”

Open to participants over 18, the competition will follow a rigorous two-round format. Round 1, the online shortlisting phase running until October 17th, invites teams to submit their proposed solutions. Expert mentors will evaluate submissions based on innovation potential, pain points addressed, target audience, and go-to-market strategy. During Round 2 on November 28-29, shortlisted teams will bring their solutions to life, with the top teams from each track pitching to a panel of judges for their share of the ₹50 lakh prize pool.

The panel of judges for MumbaiHacks 2025 includes PritiRathi Gupta, Founder, LXME (Fintech Track); Siddharth Shah, Co-Founder, PharmEasy (Healthtech Track); Arjun Vaidya, CEO, Dr. Vaidya’s (Healthtech Track); Ashok Hariharan, CEO, IDfy (Misinformation Track) and Deepit Purkayastha, Co-Founder & CEO, Inshorts (Misinformation Track).

New Delhi [India], October 1: India’s infrastructure is witnessing an unprecedented transformation with significant strides in highways, urban transport and smart mobility solutions. Over the last decade, the country has nearly doubled its national highway network, while new metro corridors, expressways and multi-modal transport systems are reshaping urban connectivity, Alongside this rapid development, the challenges of urban congestion, road safety, parking management and sustainability have grown, making intelligent transport systems (ITS), road safety innovations and smart city mobility solutions critical for India’s next phase of growth.

Traffic Infratech Expo 2025 is scheduled from 7th to 9th October 2025 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. It is bringing together the B2G – government and industry engagement on one platform. The event brings together over 300+ brands across key product categories, including ITS/Telematics, Toll & Fare, Road Safety, Security & Surveillance, Road Infrastructure, and Parking Management. Organised by Messe Frankfurt Trade Fairs India & Virtual Info Systems (VIS Group) Pvt Ltd, the expo will bring together government representatives, city planners, policy makers and technology providers converging with over 300 brands showcasing innovations across traffic management, ITS, road construction, parking automation, EV mobility and AI-driven surveillance systems.

The Smart Mobility Conference on 7th & 8th October will complement the exhibition with panels on sustainable highways, barrierless tolling, urban parking, and road safety, featuring insights from HOA(I), IHMCL, CUMTA, ITS India Forum, and other authorities. Attendees can look forward to new product launches featuring advanced, scalable solutions for traffic management, smart cities and sustainable urban mobility.

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), in collaboration with Traffic Infratech Expo, is hosting a stakeholder meet on “Transforming Transportation for the Future.” The half-day session will see an MoU signed between CDAC and ICAT to boost indigenous technology development in the automotive sector. Keynotes will be delivered by experts on Digital Twin for Mobility and Building Transportation Solutions with Local Technologies. A panel discussion will further explore strategic support for homegrown technology solutions in the transportation sector.

Speaking on the significance of the event, Mr Raj Manek, Executive Director and Board Member, Messe Frankfurt Asia Holdings Ltd, said: “India is at the cusp of an infrastructure revolution, but the real success lies in ensuring that growth is sustainable, safe and smart. Through Traffic Infratech Expo and its concurrent shows, we are creating a neutral platform where technology providers, government authorities and decision-makers can exchange ideas and implement scalable solutions for urban and highway mobility. The voices of exhibitors clearly indicate that the market is ready for large-scale adoption of homegrown intelligent systems.”

Adding further perspective, Mr Jayprakash Nair, Managing Director, Virtual Info Systems Pvt Ltd, shared: “The concurrent shows – Parking Infratech, Road Infratech, and Smart Mobility Conference under Traffic Infratech Expo – are designed to provide a 360-degree view of the entire mobility ecosystem. The industry is calling for integrated solutions, and this platform is where real partnerships and projects take shape. We are confident that this year’s edition will spark conversations and collaborations that directly influence policy and infrastructure rollouts.”

Key highlights from the participants:

India’s Smart Mobility Push: Exhibitors will showcase AI-powered traffic monitoring, real-time data platforms, EV charging, and integrated urban mobility solutions. The focus is on proven, scalable technologies that move beyond pilot projects. In parking, the shift is toward tech-driven, digitally integrated systems supporting EV infrastructure and urban planning.

Market Readiness: Exhibitors report strong demand for indigenous, scalable solutions. Indian cities are prioritising cost-effective smart mobility tools adapted to local road conditions, traffic density, and mixed traffic flows, signalling a shift toward practical, homegrown innovation.

Parking & Urban Mobility: With congestion costing Indian cities an estimated INR 1.5 lakh crore annually, exhibitors will unveil sensor-based parking, automated valet systems, and payment-integrated solutions. Widespread adoption could free up as much as 30% of urban road space.

Road Safety & Enforcement: Road fatalities remain high, and exhibitors will present AI-enabled enforcement cameras, IoT-based crash detection, and intelligent speed management systems. Integrated deployment on India’s highways could reduce accidents in high-risk zones by up to 40%.

Digital-First Ecosystem: Traffic management is no longer just physical infrastructure. Real-time updates, predictive analytics, and unified command centres are becoming the backbone of urban mobility, with live demonstrations at the expo showing how cities can leverage data for safer, more efficient roads.

For the exhibitors, the expo is more than just a showcase – it serves as a pulse check of where India’s infrastructure ecosystem is headed. Few participants expressed that the market has moved beyond pilot projects, with customers now seeking proven and scalable solutions that can be replicated across cities. In the parking technology space, too, there is a visible shift in mindset where parking is no longer seen merely as real estate but as a technology-driven service, increasingly integrated with digital payments, EV charging facilities, and urban planning frameworks.

Leading Indian companies on display include Prama India, Superwave Communications, Videonetics, Greentech ITS, Aditya Infotech (CP Plus), Kent ITS, Norden Communication, DataCorp Traffic, Samriddhi Automations and MetroCount. The expo also features international participation from Australia, Denmark, Germany, Mexico, Slovakia, Taiwan, the  UAE, and the USA, highlighting its global relevance.

The expo is backed by MoRTH, MeitY, and Digital India, with special support from NHAI and CRRI (CSIR), and supported by associations including NHBF and the Association of State Road Transport. The platform facilitates government-industry engagement, knowledge exchange, and the adoption of innovative technologies, reflecting India’s commitment to safer, smarter, and more efficient transport systems.
