Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

Medha Pushkarna, an acclaimed author known for her book ‘The Great Trial‘ is set to hit the emotions with her new book titled ‘Words Behind Bars‘. In this captivating book, emotions find expression through the rhythmic flow of poems transcending the confines of an imprisoned mind. With her writing, Medha has beautifully captured the essence of fear, agony, shock and betrayal showcasing the world constrained by invisible bars.

The poems, written within the secret diary of the main character, unfold as heartfelt letters to her father and grandmother. Each poem paints a vivid picture of the emotional restlessness experienced behind the metaphorical ‘Bars’. In one, the author grapples with the complexities of friendship, while in another, she transforms into a foe.

The powerful verses like “It is not a goodbye” and “Only moments they owned“, carry an overwhelming emotional weight. The latter poem reflects a universal theme, narrating a story familiar to many homes today – the loss of cherished moments amid fractured relationships. “Moments they owned” encapsulates this sentiment painfully:

“The father lost the daughter and the daughter lost the father, and both lost the only moments they owned.”

Another heart-wrenching poem addressed to the grandmother introduces the character of “She“, a best friend who remains a steadfast companion until the end. The raw emotions conveyed in these verses provide readers with a profound and intimate connection to the narrator’s innermost thoughts and feelings.

Accompanying the poems are two video trailers available on the author’s YouTube channel. One trailer says, “It is not a goodbye“, recounting the final moments with a beloved grandmother. The trailers offer a visual glimpse into the heart of the book, showcasing the emotional depth of the verses.

Moreover, handmade drawings by the author accompany the poems, serving as visual reflections of the personal struggles and victories of the main character. These sketches, direct from the secret diary, further enrich the reading experience, adding a unique and personal touch to the collection.

After ‘The Great Trial‘ series, Medha Pushkarna has once again demonstrated her storytelling prowess. With ‘Words Behind Bars‘, Medha takes readers on an emotional roller-coaster journey offering a unique perspective through the lens of a deeply personal diary.

Representatives of Manav Rachna, Dr OP Bhalla Foundation, Nimaya Foundation, Workverse and Balaji College

The MoU was signed by Dr NC Wadhwa, Vice Chairman, Dr OP Bhalla Foundation and Mr. Samyak Chakraborty, Founder, Workverse; in the presence of Dr Prashant Bhalla, President, MREI; and Ms. Navya Naveli Nanda, Founder, Nimaya Foundation and other senior members from Dr. OP Bhalla Foundation, Nimaya Foundation, Workverse and EKL.

The main objective of this proposed project is to enable girls with socio-economic barriers to build aspirational careers by developing them and endowing them with 21st-century skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, entrepreneurial mindset, and emotional intelligence, among others, spread over five weeks in 70 hours. The project will be delivered through self-paced content, live case studies, in-person activities, and projects like workplace simulation, placement training, and workshops that enhance soft skills.

The Smart Fellowship course structure will provide each participant with 5 weeks of soft skills training program that includes components such as Animated Modules on Workplace intelligence skills, Masterclasses with trainers, CEOs, Founders and experts, and a Simulated workplace environment to learn and test proficiency in a 21st Century Skills.
A certification and a “workplace intelligence profile” assess their performance on the 10 modules. The program will provide material to engage and excite the students about this program with regular talk series for the benefit of students.
Dr. O.P. Bhalla Foundation and Balaji College of Education, Ballabgarh, Faridabad have committed female students from the latter to join the program, and the college will ensure a minimum of 85% individual attendance to ensure course completion.

An orientation programme was held today for the beneficiaries of the programmes wherein girl students were informed about the The Smart Fellowship course structure and its benefits.

Dr. Prashant Bhalla said, “The Smart Fellowship offers a comprehensive program that surpasses conventional frameworks. By facilitating mentorship of promising talent by industry titans,The Smart Fellowship bridges the gap created by restrictive circumstances”. He added, “This endeavor aligns perfectly with our ongoing work in adopting villages and schools in Faridabad, specifically through our focus on upskilling residents and fostering equal opportunity platforms.”

Ms. Navya Naveli Nanda and Mr. Samyak Chakrabarty, mentors have shared their vision, “49% of India’s population is women, and enabling them to become front-seat drivers of India’s economic engine can have a positive domino effect right from a national level to that of her own individual domestic community. However, with the changing nature of work, the meaning of upskilling also has to transform. Rote skills are no longer sufficient in ensuring sustained career trajectories, let alone growth. Automation-led professional redundancy is real and needs to be tackled, especially for women.”

The joint effort aspires to break socio-economic barriers and empower these young students with essential skills, enabling them to pursue aspirational careers that will add depth to the learning experience, fostering a holistic development approach.

• CFI enjoys the patronage of leading infrastructure construction companies in India. It is a body “of the sector, for the sector and by the sector”, and will represent their interests at the exhibition.
• This edition will deepen synergies between construction equipment manufacturers and the infrastructure development ecosystem.
• bauma CONEXPO India 2024 is likely to attract 1000+ companies and 75,000+ trade visitors from 100+ countries.

bauma CONEXPO India is excited to collaborate with the Construction Federation of India (CFI) for its upcoming 7th edition in North India. One of the premier industry associations in the country, representing the largest construction companies across India, CFI will join hands with bauma CONEXPO India 2024 to promote the issues of tax rationalization, safety and sustainability of construction projects, and skill development in line with Industry 4.0 technologies.

bauma CONEXPO Indiais proud to join hands with the Construction Federation of India (CFI) for its 2024 edition

Building on the successes of the past editions, the 2024 exhibition and conferences will present the latest technologies and innovations for construction sites, mining, extraction and processing of raw materials, production of building materials, and components and services. With its vast network of members representing the largest contractors and developers, CFI will leverage its influence to promote the construction equipment industry and attract key stakeholders from across the country. This partnership will provide a unique platform for exhibitors to showcase their latest technologies and innovations to a highly targeted audience, thus fostering new business partnerships.

About this partnership with CFI, Bhupinder Singh, CEO, bauma CONEXPO India, says, “Today, India is on an accelerated growth path, and infrastructure development is an essential pillar of socio-economic growth. With construction projects increasing in complexity, combined with the demands for improved safety and sustainability outcomes on project sites, adopting the latest equipment technologies holds the key to meeting all stakeholders’ interests. As an important enabler of nation building, members of the Construction Federation of India have been undertaking many complex projects, and therefore, we are excited for this win-win partnership with them. The various experiential platforms at bauma CONEXPO India 2024 such as the demo areas, technical and policy related conferences, buyer-seller forums, business-to-government meetings, and many others, will serve the interests of CFI in adopting and promoting futuristic construction technologies at their project sites in India and abroad.”

Regarding the upcoming partnership with bauma CONEXPO INDIA 2024, Ajit Gulabchand, President – CFI and Chairman – Hindustan Construction Company, says, “India has a massive infrastructure development program today. But when measured against the demands of its expanding and aspirational middle-income population, especially in its smaller towns and villages, the need for infrastructure modernisation is much more than what is envisaged today. Over the years, we have developed a symbiotic relationship between construction companies and equipment manufacturers, which needs to be strengthened in the light of new demands and challenges. Therefore, we are looking forward to collaborating with bauma CONEXPO India, as it has a proven track record of promoting pioneering technologies in the construction business.”

About the key issues that will be highlighted at this exhibition, Vinayak Pai, Vice President – CFI and MD – Tata Projects, says, “Sustainability, technology and skill development are among the main focus areas for CFI today. With the global ecosystem converging around Net Zero, sustainability projects like green hydrogen and solar panels and battery manufacturing plants are some of the emerging project opportunities for construction companies today. Reducing the environmental footprint of our project sites is also a top concern.”

“As the industry struggles with shortage of resources, use of technology is an imperative and we are happy to associate with our partners who have been driving technology usage in construction machinery. In addition to that, addressing the skills shortage in the industry through continuous training programs is another area which requires partnerships between equipment manufacturers and construction companies.Therefore, we are happy to join hands with bauma CONEXPO India 2024 and continue working with our partners from the equipment manufacturing ecosystem at this platform and beyond.”

Key players and prestigious trend scouters are meeting at Cosmoprof India 2023 to discover new trends and anticipate the evolution of Indian industry

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India]: The highly anticipated launch of Cosmoprof India, one of the network’s event dedicated to the fast-growing Indian market, is finally underway. From 7 to 9 December 2023 in the Jio World Convention Centre in Mumbai suppliers, brands, retailers, distributors, and professionals can explore cutting-edge trends and product launches, engage in discussions on evolving consumer behaviours, and delve into the strategic significance of India as a key destination for beauty brands and suppliers.

Cosmoprof India unveils new launches from finished product brands specialized in Cosmetics & Toiletries, Beauty Salon & SPA, Natural & Organic, Nail & Accessories, and Hair Salon. Simultaneously, Cosmopack India showcases the most innovative and avant-garde solutions for the supply chain, from ingredients and raw materials to branded finished products, including machinery and equipment, from private label to contract manufacturing and packaging.

Cosmoprof India continues to demonstrate robust growth, aligning seamlessly with the economic expansion of the region. The 2023 edition registers impacting results, with an increase of up to 44% of exhibiting companies. Over 450 brands and exhibitors are showcasing their latest launches and novelties, coming from 19 countries and regions. The growing acknowledgement of the exhibition within the industry is evident in the significant influx of new exhibitors, marking a notable 28% increase compared to the previous year, as well as by the positive percentage of international brands (+49% compared to last year, with Korea, Italy, UK, and Taiwan being the most represented countries). Perfumery & Cosmetics, OEM, ODM and Private Label, and Primary Packaging are the product categories attracting the highest number of exhibitors.

The exhibition area has reached 12,000 sqm, too, making a substantial +34% growth compared to the last edition. This increase highlights the event’s growing influence and relevance in the industry. Cosmoprof India 2023 is attracting global attention, as represented by the presence of 5 country pavilions: Australia, Korea, Italy, Taiwan, and UK.At Cosmoprof India stakeholders can take advantage from networking with peers and new leads from all segments of the beauty industry, from the supply chain to finished product brands, thanks to unrivalled tools for match making. A dedicated buyer program facilitates attendance of approximately 130 key players from Nepal, Sri Lanka, and UAE, together with top buyers from India: they are all interested in the development of the local industry, as well as in new trends and consumers’ habits. Their collective interest lies in the development of the local industry, as well as staying abreast of new trends and consumer habits.

“Cosmoprof India represents one of the destinations of the Cosmoprof network, together with Bologna, Hong Kong, Las Vegas, Bangkok and, starting from 2024, Miami and Riyadh. The exhibition reflects all the elements which make Cosmoprof a global partner for business, at the same time adapting to the specific needs of the Indian market. Thanks to the constant contribution of the most prestigious trendsetters and worldwide leading companies and brands, Cosmoprof India is already highly recognized from beauty professionals all over the world,” states Mr Gianpiero Calzolari, President of BolognaFiere.

Business opportunities in the region are visible to all stakeholders. With a population of 1.486 billion people, India has become the most populous country as of June 2023 passing China. The growth of the middle and upper classes and a strong influence of international media are deeply influencing the local population. Beauty registers one of the highest growing rates, with personal care products, skincare and fragrances recording the highest increase.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets In India said, “As the Indian consumer landscape evolves, a decisive shift emerges, wherein consumers are more opinionated, aware, and focused. With Consumer Spending surging to $296 billion (INR 23.7 lakh crores), India is on track to become the world’s third-largest consumer market by 2027. The per capita gross income of Indian consumers too is anticipated to rise by 138% in real terms from 2021 to 2040, expanding their disposable income and creating ample opportunities for beauty brands to deepen their presence in the Indian market. Despite this potential, the pipeline is still limited, with only 17-18 million out of 100 million women actively engaging with beauty products, highlighting a significant runway for further market share growth.In this transformative period, COSMOPROF India stands out as a pivotal partnering platform, reshaping the Indian cosmetics industry through collaboration, innovation, and a dedicated commitment to meeting the dynamic preferences of today’s consumers”.

Emphasizing a notable shift in the dynamics of the beauty and cosmetics industry, Sanjiv Sharma, CEO, Grey Trendy Professionals Pvt Ltd, said, “India has transitioned from a consumer to a leader in the beauty and cosmetics industry. The world now looks to India as a pioneer, and the next two decades will see the global market seeking to learn and acquire our best products. This optimism is fuelled by the rapidly expanding men’s grooming market in India, which is currently at 900 million USD expected to reach USD 1900 million by 2029. Grey Trendy Professionals Pvt Ltd. is capitalizing on this growth, aiming to expand its Men’s Barber Salon Chain brand, HMX BY HAIRMECHANIXX stores from its current five branches to 50 by 2024 and 100 by 2025. The company prioritizes standardized operation processes, reasonable pricing, and top-quality international products, contributing to its rapid success. Events like Cosmoprof India provide a platform to explore the potential of the Indian beauty market, underscoring India’s rise as a global hub for beauty products, attracting international attention, and setting new industry standards.”
