MaitriBodh Parivaar focuses on fostering love and friendship – Maitri Bhaav. They offer spiritual programs to help individuals reconnect with their higher self and social reform projects positively impacting underprivileged lives. Rooted in principles of self-realization and humanity’s transformation, they serve as the guiding light of this one-of-a-kind conclave.

Commenting on the announcement, Maitreya Dadashreeji (Transformation Pioneer, Founder – MaitriBodh Parivaar) expressed, “Our cultural heritage is not merely a reflection of our past; it is the cornerstone of our future. Honouring and preserving our rich traditions leads us to a more prosperous and harmonious society. Through this insightful conclave, we envision embarking on a journey of exploration and celebration and recognizing the historical significance of our cultural legacy.”

Shri Gopal Krishna Agarwal (National Spokesperson – Economic Affairs, BJP) shared his anticipation, stating, “The Cultural Economy Conclave represents a pivotal moment in our journey towards harnessing the transformative power of culture for economic prosperity. As India’s cultural heritage catalyses our economic growth, the conclave will bridge the past with the present, charting a course toward a future where culture drives our economic prosperity.”

Historically, India has contributed significantly to the world’s GDP and global trade, showcasing its prowess in art, culture, music, dance, festivals, architecture, and more. However, foreign invasions and colonial rule led to economic decline. Today, with renewed pride and vision, India is poised to reclaim its cultural and economic leadership. With initiatives such as the construction of the temples; revitalizing cultural mohatsav like Kumbh Mela, and Jagannath Yatra; promotion of social intelligence linking people, planet, and prosperity; bridging the economic gap and giving opportunities to village-led business, India stands on the brink of reclaiming its esteemed status as a global cultural hub with this conclave.

In essence, this will serve as a catalyst for our nation’s economic growth during the Amrit Kaal. A potential, productive, and progressive culture-linked economy model, aligning our efforts with the current era of Transformation and inching us towards Maitreya Dadashreeji’s vision of Sunehra Bharat.

Based on the open-ended talks held so far with Abu Dhabi National Oil Company („Adnoc“) the Board of Management of Covestro AG (“Covestro”) after consultation with the Supervisory Board has today decided to enter into concrete negotiations with Adnoc regarding a potential transaction and the potential conclusion of an investment agreement as well as to allow for an adequate exchange of company information to confirm assumptions (confirmatory due diligence).

In the view of the Board of Management, the discussions so far have shown that Covestro and Adnoc can generally reach a common understanding regarding core aspects of a possible transaction including support for Covestro’s further growth strategy.

Starting point for the negotiations is a possible offer price of € 62 per Covestro share that Adnoc has indicated to Covestro, which is subject, among other things, to the results of the confirmatory due diligence and agreement on the content of an investment agreement.

”We have made good progress in our discussions with Adnoc. Therefore, we have decided to enter into concrete transaction negotiations with Adnoc”, said Markus Steilemann, CEO of Covestro.

Adnoc and Covestro both intend to proceed with the negotiations about a potential transaction and the confirmatory due diligence in a timely manner. At this time, there is no certainty whether the upcoming negotiations will lead to an agreement. There is also no certainty as to the final terms of any such agreement.

Any potential transaction would, in addition to mutual agreement on the commercial and legal transaction parameters, among other things, be subject to the approval of the respective boards of the parties and clearance by the competent authorities.

In light of the recent developments, the Capital Markets Day scheduled for June 27, 2024, will be postponed until further notice.

Speaking on the theme, Shekhar Sanyal, Country Head and Director, IET India says, ‘The IET has always been focussed on exploring cutting-edge technologies that will shape the world of tomorrow. In this 6th edition of our Flagship Congress – we are delving into a much-needed conversation for India, right now. This year, we will talk about our need for a robust ESDM ecosystem which presents a host of opportunities as well as quite a few challenges that need to be discussed and solved. The focus will be to figure out which components that the Indian ecosystem, especially MSMEs need to invest in to fuel future technology growth. Being one of the only neutral platforms, we will be able to bring together all pieces of the jigsaw to create a complete solution. Attendees will get a clear idea of where exactly their investments should be in the next few years.’

The IET Future Tech Congress draws leaders of industry, academia and policy-makers as a one-of-a-kind neutral platform that hosts important tech-led dialogues. Siemens Technology & Services Pvt Ltd was the Presenting Partner in 2022 and is presenting the national event this year as well. Other leading industry players including Elsevier and others are partnering the event as well.

The event will feature fast-paced, future–tech focused, thought-provoking conversations on how India’s dependency on imports and the absence of a robust ESDM and chip manufacturing component ecosystem will hinder India’s Digital ambition and our journey towards the $30 trillion Economy by 2047. It will spotlight critical challenges and developments across 3 key technologies – Generative AI, Industrial Metaverse and Quantum Technologies. These conversations will further highlight the impact of the Component Conundrum across 3 fast growing sectors – Healthcare, Manufacturing and Mobility, which are estimated to contribute to 25% of India’s GDP.

Speaking on the agenda of the event, Dr Rishi Bhatnagar, Chair – IET India Future Tech Panel says, ‘With the sixth edition of the IET‘s flagship event, the Future Tech Congress, we have chosen a theme critical to achieving our $30 trillion ambition by 2047. While government support in opening up India’s semiconductor industry is vital, active engagement from industry and academia is equally essential. The FTC serves as a neutral platform to bring together key stakeholders—tech experts, industry leaders, academic institutions, startups, and policymakers—to engage in essential discussions on the component conundrum. We will address challenges and bottlenecks in sectors such as manufacturing, healthcare, and mobility, focusing on transformative technologies like GenAI, the industrial metaverse, and quantum tech. This component conundrum impacts every industry relying on future technology. We invite everyone—SMEs, MSMEs, startups, enterprise players, GCCs, academia, upskilling entities, and industry bodies—to join us at FTC. Together, we can explore opportunities, solve bottlenecks, and accelerate India’s journey towards becoming Atmanirbhar.’

The IET‘s Annual Flagship Tech Event launched in 2016 as the IoT India Congress, playing a crucial role in promoting IoT innovation and business value. Known as the Platform of Platforms for the Internet of Things, it successfully ran four editions until 2019, attracting over 350 speakers and 5,000 attendees, including 72% CXOs and decision-makers from 20+ industries.

The road safety campaign featured interactive activities such as safety riding theory session, danger prediction training, road safety quiz, helmet awareness, and Riding Trainer session that kept the participants engaged throughout the campaign.

HMSI prioritizes the safety of every individual, and in line with this dedication, the company has been conducting road safety awareness campaigns across various regions of the country. These initiatives aim to provide crucial information and guidance on safe driving practices. Malappuram is the latest city to benefit from this initiative, as HMSI strives to equip the community with the knowledge and skills necessary for safe navigation on the roads.

HMSI extends its gratitude to the authorities of Seethi Sahib Memorial Polytechnic College and N.S.S English Medium High School, for their support in organizing this important initiative. Together, we can make a significant difference in creating safer roads and reducing accidents.

Since its inception, HMSI has educated nearly 4 lac adults and children in Kerala, promoting responsible road usage, and cultivating safe riding habits. Additionally, HMSI has reached more than 60 lac individuals across the country with its road safety education initiatives.

Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India’s CSR commitment towards Road Safety:

In 2021, Honda globally made a vision statement for the year 2050 where it will strive for zero traffic collision fatalities involving Honda motorcycles and automobiles. In India HMSI is working in line with this vision and the Government of India direction of reducing fatalities to half by 2030.

One critical aspect of achieving this goal is inculcating a positive mindset towards road safety in our children by the year 2030 and continuing to educate them thereafter. Road safety education at schools and colleges is not only to create awareness but also to inculcate a safety culture in young minds and turn them to be the safety ambassador. It empowers future generations to become responsible and significantly contribute to a safer society. 

HMSI wants to be a company that Society wants to exist and is strongly focusing on Road safety awareness to all sections of society with unique ideas catering to each segment from school kids to corporates and society.

HMSI’s set of skilled safety instructors conducts daily programs at our 10 adopted traffic training parks (TTP) across India and 6 Safety Driving Education Centers (SDEC) to make road safety education accessible to every part of society, and the initiative has impacted over 5.7 million Indian citizens. HMSI’s National Road Safety Awareness program made learning fun yet scientific through: 

SCIENTIFICALLY DEVISED LEARNING MODULE: Honda’s skilled instructors set the foundation with theory sessions on road signs & markings, driver’s duties on road, riding gear & posture explanation and safe riding etiquettes.

1. PRACTICAL LEARNING: A special training activity on Honda’s virtual riding simulator was executed for all to experience over 100 possible dangers on road before actual riding.
