FIA President, H.E. Mohammed Ben Sulayem, meets president of Chile H.E José Antonio Kast strengthening cooperation across Mobility and Motorsport

Dubai, UAE, Aug 28: H.E. Mohammed Ben Sulayem, President of the FIA, met yesterday with the President of the Republic of Chile, H.E. José Antonio Kast in Santiago, reinforcing the strong relationship between the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and the Chilean Government.

During the visit, they discussed their shared priorities across mobility and motorsport, including improving road safety, supporting sustainable transport, and creating further opportunities for the development of motorsport in Chile.

This meeting comes at a key moment for South America as the continent is about to play host to the FIA World Rally Championship in Paraguay, and the FIA’s American Congress, bringing together FIA Member Clubs from across the region to Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The constructive discussions culminated in President Kast and the Republic of Chile signing the FIA’s United Against Online Abuse (UAOA) charter.

Founded in 2023 by President Ben Sulayem, the coalition is leading the fight to tackle online abuse in sport, uniting governments, sporting federations and technology companies with the goal of protecting the sporting community and ensuring it is a safe, inclusive, and respectful space for all. Chile joins 13 other world governments as a coalition member.

Speaking following the meeting, FIA President, H.E. Mohammed Ben Sulayem said: “Chile plays an important role within the FIA community, with a proud motorsport heritage and a clear ambition for the future of automotive mobility.

“From hosting the FIA World Rally Championship to major investment in the country’s road network and connectivity, there is a strong commitment to the championing of these vital areas.

“I was pleased to meet with President Kast and discuss our shared priorities for the future, in particular the significant potential for motorsport in Chile, both as a platform to advance safety, and innovation and as a driver of economic growth and tourism, alongside our shared ambition to deliver safer, more sustainable and accessible mobility for all.

“I also welcome Chile’s decision to become the newest member of the United Against Online Abuse coalition, strengthening our shared commitment to a safer and more inclusive environment across sport.

As part of the discussions on mobility, President Ben Sulayem outlined the FIA’s work to improve road safety outcomes through data-driven initiatives including the FIA Road Safety Index (RSI) and FIA Driver Safety Index (DSI).

The programmes provide governments, organisations and road users with practical tools to measure, benchmark and improve road safety performance, supporting the ambition of reducing road traffic fatalities and injuries.

The FIA President also highlighted the work of the Automóvil Club de Chile (ACCHI), which plays an important role in promoting safer and more sustainable mobility across the country.

The Club, led by President Alejandro Quintana who was also in attendance, recently became one of nine new FIA Member Clubs to adopt the FIA DSI, using technology and data to help organisations better understand and manage driver risk.

Through the FIA Safe and Sustainable Mobility Grants Programme and the FIA Safe Mobility For All and For Life international programme, ACCHI has also been deploying internationally recognised tools to assess road infrastructure around schools and help create safer journeys for children, and is developing a dedicated digital platform to promote awareness on key mobility issues and connect directly with the Chilean public.

Discussions also covered the continued development of motorsport in Chile and the role of the Federación Chilena de Automovilismo Deportivo (FADECH), the FIA’s sporting Member in the country.

Nvidia Boost Lifts Market Mood; Sensex, Nifty Set for Firm Opening

Mumbai, Aug 28: Indian stock markets are likely to open on a positive note on Friday, supported by gains in US technology stocks and easing crude oil prices. However, investors are expected to remain cautious ahead of Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh’s speech at the Jackson Hole Symposium.

The GIFT Nifty was trading at 24,255.5, up 55.5 points, or 0.23 per cent, around 8 am, signalling a firm start for the domestic benchmarks.

Global markets received a boost from a strong performance on Wall Street, where technology stocks rallied after Nvidia delivered an upbeat outlook. The chipmaker’s forecast strengthened investor confidence in continued demand for artificial intelligence-related products and infrastructure.

The Nvidia-led gains pushed the Nasdaq Composite up 1.57 per cent, while the S&P 500 advanced 0.72 per cent. The Dow Jones Industrial Average also ended higher, gaining 0.20 per cent.

The positive global cues could provide some support to Indian equities after the sharp decline in the previous session. On Thursday, the Nifty 50 fell 116.90 points, or 0.48 per cent, to 24,090.85, while the Sensex declined 539.35 points, or 0.70 per cent, to 76,933.59.

However, Asian markets were more cautious on Friday as investors shifted their attention to Warsh’s Jackson Hole address. Traders are looking for clues about the Federal Reserve’s approach to inflation and the future path of US interest rates.

The Fed chair’s comments could have a wider impact on global equity markets, bond yields, currencies and foreign investment flows. Any indication of a change in the US interest-rate outlook could influence investor sentiment towards emerging markets such as India.

Crude oil prices are another factor supporting sentiment. Brent crude was trading below the previous session’s levels, easing some concerns over input costs and inflation. Lower oil prices can be positive for India because the country depends heavily on imports to meet its energy requirements.

For Indian investors, the IT sector could remain in focus following the strong technology rally in the US. Positive sentiment around artificial intelligence spending may also support domestic technology stocks, although global rate expectations and currency movements will remain important factors.

Overall, Dalal Street is expected to begin Friday’s session with a positive bias, but investors are likely to remain selective and cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve chair’s speech and other global market cues.

7 Automation Tools Redefining Content Operations in 2026

By Sameer Kanodia, Vice Chairman and CEO, Lumina Datamatics & TNQTech

As enterprises scale content across channels, geographies and formats, manual workflows are no longer able to keep pace with the speed and volume demanded by today’s always-on audiences. Automation is emerging as the backbone of modern content operations, helping organisations create, manage and deliver content faster while maintaining accuracy, consistency and compliance. From AI-driven creation to intelligent workflow orchestration, a new generation of tools is redefining how content teams work in 2026. Here are seven automation tools redefining content operations this year:

1. AI-Powered Content Generation Platforms

AI content generation tools are automating first drafts, summaries and repurposed formats at scale, allowing teams to focus on refinement rather than production from scratch. These platforms are increasingly capable of maintaining brand voice and factual accuracy across large content volumes.

2. Intelligent Workflow Orchestration Systems

Workflow orchestration tools automate routing, approvals and handoffs across content teams, reducing bottlenecks and manual follow-ups. These systems bring visibility into every stage of production, helping enterprises track progress and meet deadlines with fewer delays.

3. Automated Metadata and Taxonomy Tagging

Automated tagging tools apply consistent metadata, taxonomy and classification across large content libraries, improving discoverability and search performance. This reduces the manual effort required to keep growing catalogues organised and consistent.

4. AI-Driven Quality Assurance and Compliance Checks

Automated QA tools scan content for factual errors, formatting inconsistencies, accessibility gaps and regulatory compliance issues before publication. This helps enterprises catch errors early, reducing rework and reputational risk.

5. Multi-Channel Publishing and Syndication Platforms

Automated syndication tools push content updates across websites, apps, marketplaces and social channels simultaneously, ensuring consistency without manual duplication of effort. This is becoming essential as organisations manage a growing number of digital touchpoints.

6. Real-Time Translation and Localisation Engines

AI-powered localisation tools automate translation, cultural adaptation and formatting for global audiences, significantly reducing the time needed to launch content across new markets while preserving tone and context.

7. Analytics-Driven Content Performance Dashboards

Automated analytics dashboards continuously track content performance, engagement and conversion across channels, feeding insights back into planning. This allows content teams to make data-driven decisions rather than relying on periodic manual reporting.

As content volumes and channel complexity continue to grow, automation is no longer a competitive advantage, it is becoming the operating standard. By adopting these tools, enterprises can build smarter, faster and more consistent content ecosystems, freeing teams to focus on strategy, creativity and customer experience rather than repetitive manual tasks.

HK Vitals Raises the Bar for Collagen in India with Clinically Studied Skin Radiance Collagen

Aug 28: Collagen supplementation and its role in skin health are already well established in markets such as the US and UK. In India, however, awareness of collagen as an important nutritional component for maintaining skin health is limited. HK Vitals, India’s leading collagen brand, is working to bridge this gap with Skin Radiance Collagen, taking a science-backed and clinically studied approach to make the benefits of collagen more credible and relevant to Indian consumers.

Skin Radiance Collagen by HK Vitals is the only collagen in India clinically tested to deliver visible results in eight weeks. The study, done by an independent body, demonstrated a 48% reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and 4x smoother skin in 8 weeks. The formulation combines hydrolysed marine collagen peptides with Hyaluronic Acid, Biotin, Vitamin C and Vitamin E, bringing together ingredients that support hydration, elasticity and overall skin health.

The focus on clinical validation is particularly relevant in a category where consumer awareness is still evolving. Collagen plays an essential role in supporting the structure, firmness and elasticity of the skin. As its levels naturally decline with age, changes such as fine lines, wrinkles and loss of elasticity can become more visible. HK Vitals is making the science behind collagen easier for consumers to understand. The brand’s recent awareness campaign, ‘Skin ko Chahiye, Skin ka Protein’, is built around a simple biological fact- just as the body needs protein to build and maintain muscles, the skin relies on collagen (its key structural protein) to support firmness, elasticity and overall skin health. It therefore positions collagen as more than an occasional addition, but as a non-negotiable part of a consistent skin health routine.

Anupam Trehan, Senior Vice President of R&D at HealthKart said, “The collagen category in India has immense potential, but for it to grow meaningfully, credibility has to grow with it. Consumers today are increasingly asking what is actually behind the claims being made to them. That is where clinical validation becomes important. At HK Vitals, we want to raise the standard for how collagen products are developed and communicated. Skin Radiance Collagen reflects that approach, bringing together a carefully designed formulation and clinical evidence that demonstrates measurable results. Our larger focus is to help consumers make more informed choices about collagen and skin health.”

Skin Radiance Collagen is available through the HK Vitals D2C platform, quick-commerce channels and leading marketplaces, making it easily accessible to consumers looking to incorporate collagen into their daily wellness routines.

India’s Two-Wheeler Retail Sales Rise Nearly 20% in August on Festive Demand

New Delhi, August 27: India’s two-wheeler retail market recorded strong momentum in August, with sales estimated to grow 18–20% year-on-year, supported by the Onam festival and a favourable low-base effect, according to a Yes Securities report.

The report said consumer interest remained robust, with organic enquiries rising 10–12% and healthy traction across both urban and rural markets. Premium internal-combustion-engine (ICE) models and electric two-wheelers emerged as key growth drivers as manufacturers increased supplies ahead of the upcoming festive season.

The strong performance reflects changing consumer preferences, with buyers increasingly showing interest in technology, performance and feature-rich models rather than focusing solely on affordability. The report also highlighted particularly strong demand for EVs among customers in urban and Tier-1 and Tier-2 markets.

Demand was not limited to two-wheelers. Passenger vehicle retail sales were estimated to rise 11–13% year-on-year, while Onam provided an additional boost, particularly in urban markets. Dealer inventories remained relatively lean at around four weeks, indicating that manufacturers are entering the festive period with controlled stock levels.

The report also pointed to a sharp increase in interest in alternative-fuel vehicles, with CNG and EV enquiries and bookings rising more than 30%, driven partly by new product launches. EV waiting periods for high-demand brands remained elevated at around three to four months, compared with roughly one to 1.5 months for ICE models.

With the festive season approaching, the sustained retail momentum could provide a further boost to India’s automobile industry, supporting manufacturers, dealers and the broader automotive supply chain.

APR Bharat’s ‘Bottle Ki Recycle Yatra’ takes the message of PET recycling to nearly one million Indians along Kanwar Yatra route in 15 days

New Delhi, August 27, 2026: The Association of PET Recyclers (APR) Bharat’s ‘Bottle Ki Recycle Yatra’, a 15-day awareness initiative along the Kanwar Yatra route, has reached nearly one million Indians, taking the message of PET recycling and responsible plastic waste management to a large and diverse audience.

The campaign helped bring over 50,000 used PET bottles into the formal recycling ecosystem, demonstrating the potential of targeted, on-ground awareness initiatives to encourage responsible disposal and channel used PET bottles towards recycling.

The ‘Bottle Ki Recycle Yatra’ was designed to address a critical gap in public understanding around PET recycling and the value of used PET bottles. Interestingly, a survey conducted by APR Bharat on more than 600 consumers along the Kanwar Yatra route, reveals that while India has one of the highest recycling rates in the world, with an estimated 90 per cent of used PET bottles recovered and recycled, nearly 92.3 per cent of Indians are unaware that used PET bottles can be recycled and turned into new bottles.

Through direct engagement with citizens along the Kanwar Yatra route, the campaign sought to reinforce the message that a used PET bottle is not waste but a valuable resource that can be collected, recycled and reintroduced into the circular economy.

As part of the campaign, a specially designed Van travelled across four high-footfall locations in Muzaffarnagar and Meerut engaging with pilgrims and the wider public on the importance of responsible disposal, while collecting used PET bottles generated during the pilgrimage and channelising them into the formal recycling ecosystem.

“The overwhelming response to the ‘Bottle Ki Recycle Yatra’ demonstrates that when the message of recycling reaches people directly, it can translate into meaningful behavioural action. Reaching nearly one million people and bringing more than 50,000 PET bottles into the formal recycling ecosystem in just 15 days gives us the confidence to take this initiative to a much larger national platform moving forward. Our main objective of launching the campaign was to make recycling tangible and relatable by taking recycling awareness beyond the industry and into communities,” Goutham Jain, Director General, APR (Association of PET Recyclers) Bharat, said. 

Implementation of mandate remains a challenge

The initiative assumes significance particularly at a time when the government has been emphasising on the need to promote austerity in imports to protect its foreign currency reserves and push for indigenisation of over 200 import-dependent petrochemical items. Global geopolitical disruptions and supply-chain volatility have demonstrated the vulnerability of industries dependent on uninterrupted supplies of virgin polymers. Transition to r-PET (recycled PET) is crucial to ensure national resource security, reduce import dependence, and ensure a more resilient domestic packaging supply chain.

Mr. Jain underscored that, although the Government has mandated the use of 40% recycled inputs in plastic packaging by 2026–27, implementation at the ground level remains limited and falls short of the intended transition towards a closed loop manufacturing ecosystem. He stressed that reliance on virgin PET derived from crude oil depletes national resources. In contrast, the large-scale adoption of recycled PET can help conserve critical resources while accelerating the transition towards a more sustainable, circular, and environmentally responsible plastic value chain.

“At a time when global polymer supply chains are experiencing volatility and India is simultaneously building significant domestic recycling capacity, recycling has a much larger role to play than simply managing waste. It can help create a more circular, resource-efficient and resilient manufacturing ecosystem for India. Every bottle that is responsibly disposed of and recycled represents a resource that can be recovered and reused,” Jain added.
