Miror Therapeutics Empowers Bengaluru’s “Ground Heroes” with Landmark Hormonal Health Initiative at Magadi Road Maternity Hospital
Bengaluru, Mar 12: Miror Therapeutics Pvt Ltd successfully hosted “Women’s Midlife & Beyond,” a high-impact hormonal health awareness program for frontline women workers in Bengaluru. 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”.

Roblox Unveils New Programs to Power the Next Generation of Games
New Delhi, Mar 12: Roblox, an immersive gaming and creation platform, today announced two new strategic initiatives to facilitate the creation of novel games—a new wave of games that push the boundaries of genre, gameplay, and visual style to meet the demands of Roblox’s rapidly expanding audience. These experiences will feature expanded genres such as role-play games (RPG), strategy and shooters, and will introduce different gameplay mechanics and a distinct look and feel from classic Roblox games.
New age-checked data reveals a substantial opportunity within the older user cohort. As of January 31, 45% of daily active users (DAUs) have completed the age check, with 27% of this group identified as over 18. This demographic represents a significant growth driver; for example, in the U.S., the 18-34 cohort is growing at over 50%—more than double the rate of the under-18 user base—and monetizes 40% higher.
These programs help target the rapidly growing demographic of users over 18. Leveraging new age-checked data, the company is prioritizing the creation of high-fidelity novel games across popular genres to serve an increasingly diverse, older, and high-value audience.
“The creativity of Roblox developers has always amazed us,” said Vlad Loktev, Chief Creator Ecosystem Officer at Roblox. “Our vision for Roblox is to be the platform for all ages, and we are calling on ambitious creators with bold ideas to build the next generation of experiences. These new programs provide the mentorship, resources, and discovery support needed to turn those visions into commercial hits.”
Empowering Creators Through New Programs
The new programs offer tailored support for different stages of development:
- Roblox Incubator: A six-month, milestone-driven program designed to help experienced teams refine promising concepts of novel games into polished, scalable, commercially successful games. All program participants will gain access to Roblox subject matter experts who will provide mentorship and support, as well as help participants build an audience for their games.
- Roblox Jumpstart: A continuous program designed to help creators who are new to Roblox learn the platform, and help experienced creators explore novel games. Applications for the Jumpstart program open today and will stay open on a rolling basis, and pitches for new games will kick off in person at this year’s Game Developers Conference (GDC) and continue on a rolling basis. Similar to the Incubator, all Jumpstart participants will gain access to Roblox subject matter experts and assistance with on- and off-platform user acquisition programs.
Next-Generation Technology
Roblox’s technology roadmap is laser-focused on providing creators with the tools to build the high-fidelity, compelling experiences that the growing older cohort expects. Features such as SLIM (Scalable Lightweight Interactive Models), Texture Streaming, and server authority allow developers to create visually stunning worlds that scale across devices.
Applications for both the Roblox Incubator and Roblox Jumpstart programs are open today. For more information on selection criteria and how to apply, visit the Roblox Newsroom.

Guwahati family shares experience of hospital-based palliative care during advanced cancer treatment
Guwahati, Mar 12: A Guwahati family has shared its experience of hospital–based palliative care after their mother, diagnosed with advanced-stage liver cancer, was shifted to comfort-focused treatment during a recent admission at Peerless Hospital Guwahati.
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.

Erasmus Plus NSIS Launches 10-Module Digital Research & Entrepreneurship Training in South Asia
Mumbai, Mar 12: The Erasmus+ Programme-supported NSIS (Developing Information, Research, and Digital Skills for Business, Innovation and Entrepreneurship) project, co-funded by the European Union, will introduce a 10-module training programme on digital research, data skills, research commercialisation and entrepreneurship for universities across India, Sri Lanka and Nepal. The initiative and its key outcomes were highlighted today during National Awareness Day 2026 organised under the NSIS project and hosted at Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies (MRIIRS), in collaboration with MIT World Peace University, Pune, and Sathyabama Institute of Science and Technology, Chennai.
The event brought together international academic leaders, researchers and policy stakeholders from South Asia and Europe to discuss strategies for strengthening digital research capabilities, innovation support systems and university-led entrepreneurship across the region. The discussions focused on building stronger research ecosystems within universities and equipping higher education institutions with the digital and information skills required to support innovation-driven economic growth and research.
This can be achieved by technology transfer, research commercialisation and entrepreneurship development. Through collaboration between European and South Asian partner institutions, the initiative promotes knowledge exchange, joint research initiatives and the adoption of global best practices in innovation management and research-driven entrepreneurship.
Dr. Padraig Kirby, Project Lead and Erasmus+ Coordinator for the NSIS project, said,
“The NSIS project aims to develop information, research and digital skills, with a particular focus on strengthening the role of libraries and research and improving the services and support that librarians provide for research, business and entrepreneurship. One of the key outcomes of the project will be the development of a 10-module curriculum covering areas such as digital literacy, data skills, Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), online research publication, academic writing, and business and management. These modules will be made available as training opportunities for universities across India, Sri Lanka and Nepal, supported by an online platform that will allow participants to access the courses and resources.”
Dr. Sarita Sachdeva, Erasmus Project Lead and Dean Research at Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies, said,
“We are living in an era defined by rapid technological advancement, digital transformation and knowledge-driven economies, where information access, research capabilities and digital skills have become fundamental drivers of innovation and entrepreneurship. Through the Erasmus+ NSIS project, we aim to strengthen research and academic collaboration among partner institutions in India, Sri Lanka and Nepal, enhance digital and information skills essential for modern research environments, and support innovation, entrepreneurship and knowledge-based economic growth across the region.”
Dr. Naresh Grover, Pro Vice-Chancellor at Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies, highlighted the evolving role of universities in enabling digitally connected research ecosystems, stating,
“Digital transformation in higher education is not merely about introducing new technologies; it is about fundamentally redesigning how learning, research and collaboration take place within universities. The shift towards technology-enabled and globally connected learning environments is enabling institutions to strengthen research, cultivate innovation and connect academic work with real-world challenges. With the support of initiatives such as the National Education Policy 2020 and the Digital India Mission, universities are increasingly leveraging artificial intelligence, cloud computing and digital platforms to improve research capabilities and make institutional decision-making more data-driven.”
The event also included expert deliberations on the role of digital transformation in strengthening innovation ecosystems across South Asia. A panel discussion on “AI & Digital Transformation for Developing Information and Research for Business, Innovation and Entrepreneurship in South Asia” was moderated by Rajiv Kapoor, Managing Director and CEO of Manav Rachna Educational Institutions. Another panel on “Developing Digital Skills in Education, Research and Libraries for Entrepreneurship in South Asia” was moderated by Dr. Monika Goel, Executive Director and Dean Academics at Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies.
The discussions explored strategies to strengthen digital competencies within research institutions and highlighted the role of universities in supporting innovation-driven entrepreneurship and interdisciplinary research. At MRIIRS, Erasmus+ support has contributed to research collaborations in emerging technology areas, capacity-building programmes for professionals including library staff, and entrepreneurship development initiatives aimed at cultivating innovation among students and researchers.
In the long term, the initiative is expected to strengthen regional innovation ecosystems, promote startup culture within universities, enhance collaboration between academia and industry, and create sustainable frameworks for innovation-driven entrepreneurship and technology development.

Bombay Dyeing Marks World Sleep Day 2026 with ComfortThatCares
Mumbai, Mar 12: As India navigates rising stress, digital fatigue, and increasingly disrupted routines, Bombay Dyeing & Manufacturing Company Ltd. is using World Sleep Day 2026 to spotlight a simple but important idea: better sleep begins with a better sleep environment. 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.
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. By balancing plush softness with ergonomic support, they ensure restorative rest night after night, making everyday luxury a part of your daily routine.
The Brand Marketing Team of Bombay Dyeing adds,
“Sleep is foundational to our physical and mental well-being. Through #ComfortThatCares, we want to encourage families across India to treat sleep as essential, not an afterthought. 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. Every product in Bombay Dyeing’s sleep range is built on a simple idea: what you sleep on matters just as much as how long you sleep.

Tata AIA Launches Shubh Flexi Pension Plan
Mumbai, Mar 12: Imagine retiring with the peace of mind that your income will last as long as you do; a retirement where your savings not only provide stability but also grow to keep up with rising costs and help you maintain your lifestyle. Tata AIA Life Insurance has made that dream a reality with the Shubh Flexi Pension Plan, a solution designed to help you retire with confidence, flexibility, and financial security.
Retirement Today A New Reality
Retirement planning is no longer just about saving for the future; it’s about adapting to the evolving realities of life. 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:
- 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.
- 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.

The After Dark Tour also showcases Nike’s latest running, training and sportswear innovations — all designed to help women look good, feel good and perform their best.

● Reusable Caption Templates – Save caption styles and settings for consistent use across multiple events.

“Organizations are presenting more live content than ever,” Rathnam added. “From conferences and hybrid events to enterprise town halls and product launches, the Wordly Subtitles App makes it easy for production teams to embed captions directly on stage screens or into streams, creating accessible and professional experiences for all audiences.”
How the Subtitles App Supports Enterprise Communications
● Improves accessibility by embedding real-time captions directly into presentations and broadcasts.
● Ensures clarity for global teams during meetings, town halls, and corporate events.
● Simplifies caption delivery for production teams by removing the need for side monitors or complex workflows.

The launch of the Wordly Subtitles App is part of four major products introduced by Wordly this quarter, including Wordly Workspaces, mobile app extensions, and enhanced integration with Microsoft Teams. Together, these updates create a seamless ecosystem for real-time translation, captioning, and collaboration across desktop, mobile, internal meetings, and live event stages.
