We dream of taking India to a $35 trillion economy but If we do not innovate, India cannot make this transformational jump. Engineers and scientists are the ones who can develop new technologies, create solutions and transform the country. We need such ecosystem that can drive India’s transformation. A nuclear-powered Viksit Bharat can start from a university like Chandigarh University. I propose that Chandigarh University take the lead in establishing a Centre for Nuclear Studies to groom young engineers to build and operate nuclear power plants, develop critical technologies and contribute to India’s energy mission and export potential.”

Gursharan Singh, Senior Vice President, Backend Operations, Micron Technology said, “We are living through one of the most exciting periods in engineering history, with artificial intelligence, advanced manufacturing, automation and digital technologies transforming the world. Yet, technology is ultimately about people. As engineers, we must ensure that the technologies we create solve meaningful problems, improve lives and contribute positively to society,”.

Jai Inder Singh Sandhu, Managing Director, Chandigarh University said, “The Build Summit symbolises the importance of building solutions with the tools and resources at hand to address real-life challenges. For a Viksit Bharat, we have the vision and competent leadership; what we need is infrastructure and the energy, ideas and innovation of our youth. I hope this galaxy of experts inspires students to look beyond engineering as a discipline and focus on building things, solving real-world problems and creating innovations that can contribute to taking the university and the Build Summit initiative to the next level.”

 Swapnil Jain Co-Founder, Ather Energy said, “In the last decade, we have seen a major transformation in India—from being a country of assemblers to a country of builders. The golden opportunity for young engineers is to build, take risks and create value. Strong industry-academia collaboration can help bridge the gap between real-world problems and innovative solutions. I am glad to see Chandigarh University taking this step towards creating a nation of builders.”

CB Ojha, Chief Engineer, Engineering Department (PWD), UT Chandigarh said, “As Artificial Intelligence, robotics, automation, renewable energy and digital technologies transform the way we live and work, engineers must ask not only can we build it, but also should we build it, how should we build it and for whom. The future of engineering must therefore be guided by sustainability, inclusivity, resilience and public service,”.

IIFL Finance Becomes First Non-PSU NBFC to Execute ₹25 Crores Tokenised Bond Transaction

• Landmark transaction executed on Metropolitan Stock Exchange of India under SEBI’s Regulatory Sandbox framework, with Trust Investment Advisors Private Limited as Sole Arranger and Advisor

MUMBAI, India, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — IIFL Finance Limited (“IIFL Finance” or “the Company”) today announced the successful completion of a ₹25 crores tokenised bond transaction, becoming the first Non-PSU Non-Banking Financial Company (NBFC) in India to undertake a transaction of this nature. The transaction was executed on the Metropolitan Stock Exchange of India (MSEI), which provided the bidding platform for the deal, with Trust Investment Advisors Private Limited acting as the Sole Arranger and Advisor. The bonds will be listed on the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE).

The transaction was undertaken under the Securities and Exchange Board of India’s (SEBI) Regulatory Sandbox framework for tokenisation of securities, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of India’s digital debt capital markets.

Tokenisation enables securities to be represented digitally using blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT), offering the potential for greater efficiency, transparency, and speed across debt market processes. By successfully executing this transaction, IIFL Finance has demonstrated the growing adoption of technology within India’s corporate bond market and reinforced its position among NBFCs adopting innovative, technology-led solutions in debt capital markets.

The transaction represents another step towards building a more technology-enabled and innovative debt capital market ecosystem in India, aligning with the broader industry shift towards digitisation of financial market infrastructure.

IIFL Finance’s transaction comes amid growing regulatory and policy momentum around securities tokenisation in India. At the Global Fintech Fest (GFF) 2026 in Mumbai, Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor Mr Sanjay Malhotra and Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) Chairman Mr Tuhin Kanta Pandey jointly launched a national tokenised corporate bond pilot combining blockchain/distributed ledger technology with the RBI’s central bank digital currency (CBDC) for securities settlement.

SEBI Chairman Mr Tuhin Kanta Pandey, discussing the regulator’s broader tokenisation push, has said SEBI initiated a pilot to explore distributed ledger technology (DLT) for corporate bond tokenisation, noting the shift “could create greater possibility of more liquidity and instantaneous settlement” in the bond market.

Mr Govind Modani, Chief Treasury Officer at IIFL Finance said, “As the first Non-PSU NBFC to participate in India’s emerging tokenised bond ecosystem, we are embracing new-age technology to make capital-market transactions more efficient, transparent and future-ready. The tokenized bond initiative gives us an opportunity to participate in building the financial infrastructure of tomorrow, while gaining valuable experience in blockchain-enabled issuance and settlement.”

As we advance our digital transformation, our focus will remain on developing solutions that are inclusive, scalable and relevant to the evolving needs of our customers.”

Mobile based digital payments

The Bank presented four initiatives developed around India’s rapidly evolving digital-payments infrastructure.

UPI Help 2.0 provides customers with a single authenticated interface to view their UPI transaction history, raise and track complaints, and manage mandates linked to their Bank of India accounts, irrespective of the UPI application through which the mandates were created. BOI has integrated this feature in Omni Neo Mobile App and now BOI customers can view and manage mandates created on BOI account on the Omni App. Another important feature in UPI help is transaction replay facility. This allows user to re-initiate an earlier UPI transaction, performed on any UPI app, from Omni Neo app where BOI account is linked. 

Bank also launched UPI Tap & Pay on PoS for BOI customers. This facility enables customers to make contactless UPI payments by tapping an NFC-enabled smartphone on a supported point-of-sale terminal. BOI customers can enable Tap & Pay feature on their Omni Neo mobile app and make it as default app for Tap & Pay transaction. When they make any purchase below Rs. 5000/- then merchant will initiate a UPI collect request and customer has to simply tap the phone on PoS machine and transaction will be successful. 

Another key launch for mobile banking was the Unified Ticketing Platform, developed by NPCI Bharat BillPay Limited, is designed to enable interoperable QR-based ticketing across metro, bus and other public-transport systems. Through the integration, Bank of India customers will be able to book tickets for local transport and tourist destinations through the Bank’s Omni Neo mobile application as participating transit and tourism operators join the platform.

Bank of India launched IMPS bulk payment in collaboration with NPCI in GFF 2026. This facility allows customers to send payment request in bulk and the system shall process the transactions and share response file with customers in one go. This shall be very helpful to their corporate customers through internet Banking. This facility is developed on bank’s Centralised Digital Payment Switch (CDPS).

Programmable CBDC for purpose-bound transactions

Under its digital-currency portfolio, Bank of India formally launched user-level Programmable Central Bank Digital Currency functionality. The solution enables digital tokens to be issued with embedded usage conditions such as merchant-category restrictions, geographical limits, expiry periods and specified acceptance criteria.

The system supports secure token issuance, transfers and merchant payments, with real-time checks to ensure that transactions comply with the configured conditions. Potential applications include targeted subsidies, relief payments, purpose-bound benefits and other Direct Benefit Transfer programme.

Programmability can help ensure that funds are used for their intended purpose while improving transparency, auditability and operational efficiency.

Leading Bank of India’s card product portfolio at GFF 2026 was the Terra Mastercard World Credit Card, a contactless international credit card designed for customers seeking premium travel, lifestyle and global-payment benefits. The card can be used across ATMs, point-of-sale terminals and e-commerce platforms.

Terra offers benefits across travel, entertainment, dining, mobility, wellness and digital subscriptions. These include domestic and international airport lounge access, accelerated reward points on eligible transactions and preferred categories, and offers from PVR INOX, Swiggy, Uber, Netmeds, Paytm Flights, Yatra, JioSaavn, Tata CLiQ Fashion and Tattva Spa, subject to applicable terms and conditions. The card is being offered with no issuance fee and an annual membership fee of ₹990 for the principal card and ₹750 for an add-on card.

Alongside the Terra Credit Card, Bank also launched, Unified AgentNxt Partner Integration, which provides a common framework through which the Bank can engage and manage multiple approved technology service providers. By standardising partner onboarding, operations, reporting and governance, the platform is expected to simplify ecosystem management and enable the Bank to scale customer acquisition, assisted banking, merchant services, financial inclusion, payments and collection initiatives more efficiently.

Next-generation self-service banking

In association with Hitachi, Bank of India showcased a proof of concept for an Android-based Cash Recycler Machine that brings multiple self-service banking facilities onto a single software-driven platform.

Along with conventional ATM and cash-recycler services, the machine supports UPI-based interoperable cardless cash withdrawals, Green PIN generation and real-time debit-card issuance. Customers can initiate the card application and authentication process at the machine and receive a personalised physical debit card instantly.

The proof of concept will enable the Bank to evaluate customer experience, technology integration, operational requirements and the potential future deployment of next-generation self-service banking infrastructure.

Fintech, compliance and customer-engagement platforms

Bank of India also presented technology-led platforms designed to improve compliance, customer engagement, product discovery and fintech collaboration.

ALPHA PLUS is a technology-enabled compliance platform designed to automate compliance functions such as Regulatory Inspection Management, Regulatory Correspondence Tracking, Compliance Advisory, Circular Repository Management, Deviation Reporting, Penalties Tracking, etc.

BOI launched FinTech Connect Portal which provides a direct channel through which fintech companies can register their capabilities and submit proposals to the Bank. Applications can be made without a fee and will be evaluated on merit, with each submission receiving a reference ID and identified internal owner. The portal is intended to create a central repository of fintech capabilities and make engagement with prospective partners more transparent and structured.

The Bank also showcased Markytics, an in-branch cross-selling and visitor-engagement platform. At GFF, the platform enabled proximity-based visit tracking, relevant product discovery, lead generation, session bookings, visitor reminders, feedback collection and rewards management. Its dashboard provides Bank teams with insights into visitor activity, product interest, dwell time and conversion trends.

The platform can support the cross-selling of retail, commercial, digital-banking and fintech offerings by identifying customer interest and creating contextualised leads for relationship managers.

Bank of India additionally presented E-Kosha 2.0, a Tone Tag-enabled conversational banking proposition that allows customers to engage with the Bank through voice. Designed to make digital banking simpler and more inclusive, E-Kosha can provide guided access to banking information and services without requiring customers to navigate complex screens.

The platform has the potential to be deployed at branches, Business Correspondent locations and other high-footfall touchpoints. It can progressively be expanded to cover account services, payments, transfers, loans, insurance, investments, customer service and product discovery.

Together, these initiatives demonstrate the Bank’s approach of combining internal capabilities with ecosystem partnerships to translate emerging technologies into practical banking applications.

XGRIDS Unveils Lixel L3 at INTERGEO 2026, Setting a New Benchmark for Spatial Capture with Validated 5 mm Accuracy

MUNICH, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — XGRIDS, the spatial intelligence company, today introduced Lixel L3, its flagship high-accuracy spatial scanner with validated 5 mm relative accuracy, demonstrated against measured ground truth in a documented test.

The L3 fuses a high-accuracy LiDAR, a true-color vision system, an integrated RTK, and a built-in display into one system, uniting geometry, color, positioning, and delivery in a single capture workflow. Captured data can be processed locally and turned into 3D outputs for downstream applications, with L3 typically covering around 100 square meters in 10 minutes for high-accuracy data and photorealistic 3D models, making it well suited to large, complex sites.

Verified 5 mm Accuracy

Lixel L3 achieves 5 mm relative accuracy and approximately 2.5 cm real-time absolute accuracy. Its integrated SLAM system maintains stability throughout the scan, while real-time vision-aided localization and leveling optimization help control accumulated drift during longer scanning sessions. 

“5 mm relative accuracy only matters if it holds up in the field and the data can go straight into BIM,” said Sunny Liao, Director of International Sales and Marketing at XGRIDS. “Customers can capture, process and export locally and the data is ready for the workflow.”

Photorealistic Spatial Capture

L3 combines high-accuracy spatial sensing with a 1/1.3-inch CMOS 4K HDR imaging system, capturing color and surface detail alongside precise geometry. From a single scan, L3 produces true-color point cloud, detailed mesh and photorealistic 3DGS models. As 3DGS transitions into mainstream production—highlighted by Autodesk introducing support for 3DGS in 3ds Max and Trimble integrating it into SketchUp—XGRIDS’ proprietary LCC2 format is among the early 3DGS formats supported by established software platforms, bringing photorealistic physical assets directly into AEC, film and entertainment, and virtual production workflows.

Built for Field Crews

Designed for fieldwork, L3 features a 4.3-inch display for scan status, trajectory and coverage. Map fusion aligns multiple scans without preset control points, while privacy protection can blur faces and license plates.

XGRIDS Lixel L3 brings next-level accuracy and photorealism together, elevating the standard for how physical environments are captured, reconstructed, and put to work. As 3DGS moves into mainstream production and spatial data becomes a foundational layer for digital experiences, XGRIDS is building the infrastructure that connects physical reality with the digital world.

KuCoin Wealth Broadens Access to Professionally Managed Strategies with New RWA and Crypto Multi-Strategy Products

PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — KuCoin, a leading global crypto platform built on trust, today announced two new professionally managed products under KuCoin Wealth. All-Weather Multi-asset strategy – Principal Protected, KuCoin Wealth’s first RWA-focused product with exposure to traditional asset classes, provides access to a diversified range of strategies with an emphasis on capital preservation. Crypto Assets Multi-strategy focuses on digital assets, combining multiple investment approaches designed to pursue returns across changing market conditions.

Professional investment strategies have traditionally involved limited availability, high minimum commitments and complex onboarding requirements. Through KuCoin Wealth, the new offerings make these strategies accessible to a broader base of eligible users, with minimum subscription amounts starting at 100 USDT. The launch advances KuCoin Wealth’s efforts to narrow the access gap between professionally managed investment strategies and digital asset investors.

The two products offer distinct approaches:

• All-Weather Multi-asset strategy – Principal Protected applies an all-weather allocation framework across equity long-short, quantitative and commodity trading adviser strategies, among others. The product follows a conservative approach focused on capital preservation, while dynamically adjusting its allocation to pursue returns across different market environments. The manager of the underlying strategy has historically managed more than US$1 billion in assets across its strategies.

• Crypto Assets Multi-strategy combines fundamental investment, quantitative trading, trend, arbitrage and event-driven strategies across digital assets. By diversifying across asset categories and return sources, the product aims to reduce reliance on a single strategy or market direction.

Together, the products provide users with access to diversified return drivers designed to reduce dependence on broader crypto market movements and pursue more resilient, risk-adjusted portfolio outcomes across market cycles.

KuCoin Wealth currently offers fixed-term investments and quantitative strategies for high-net-worth and professional users. With these additions, KuCoin Wealth expands into RWA-focused multi-asset allocation and professionally managed crypto strategies, further narrowing the access gap between exchange-based wealth products and traditional investment markets.
