    Inside the Cricket Travel Boom: Key Trends

    Travel demand took off following the announcement of the first phase of Indian Premier League (IPL) fixtures on 11 March, with Skyscanner recording a surge in domestic flight searches through to 12 April as fans geared up for the season. In the run-up to the opening clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), searches for the weekend of 27–30 March climbed 45% YoY (year-on-year), signalling early excitement. Mumbai quickly became the top trending destination for that weekend, driven by the face-off between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Momentum continued into April, with the ever-popular rivalry between RCB and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Bengaluru sparking a 56% YoY jump in searches for the weekend of 3–6 April, highlighting how fixture drops could potentially be triggering spikes in travel demand, among Indians.

    Commenting on the campaign, Neel Ghose, Skyscanner Travel Trends and Destinations Expert, shared, “Cricket has always had an unmatched hold on Indian audiences, and following the game on the road is just as much a part of that passion. We’re seeing fans plan entire trips around match schedules, navigating last-minute bookings, cross-city journeys, and peak travel windows.

Fans are using these moments to explore new cities, discover great local food, and soak in the buzz of match day alongside fellow supporters from all over the world. Skyscanner tapped into this shift through its ‘Pitch Perfect Journeys’ campaign last year, which revealed that while 80% of fans were excited to travel for their favourite IPL teams, more than half were turning it into a longer break, adding a few extra days to enjoy the destination.

    Building on this, through the ‘Hotline to SKY’ campaign, Skyscanner continues to deepen its understanding of real traveller needs, offering meaningful support shaped by real-life experiences. By staying close to what fans encounter on their journeys, Skyscanner remains focused on making travel planning simpler, so fans can focus on what truly matters, blending the thrill of the game with the joy of discovering something new.

     

  • TAU Systems & Lawrence Berkeley Lab Achieve Breakthrough in Laser-Powered Accelerator, Enable 8+ Hours of Continuous FEL Output

    Carlsbad, California, 8 April 2026: TAU Systems, a pioneer in compact particle accelerator technology, today announced a major scientific milestone: the first-ever demonstration of reliable, continuous operation of a laser-powered accelerator (LPA)-driven free-electron laser (FEL) sustained over more than eight hours without operator intervention. The achievement, published in a new research paper, marks a pivotal step toward making ultra-bright, tunable light sources practical for real-world scientific and industrial applications.

    Traditional FEL facilities rely on large, costly radio-frequency accelerators that occupy entire campuses. LPAs shrink the acceleration distance from hundreds of meters to just millimeters by harnessing powerful laser pulses to accelerate electrons in a plasma. While the physics of LPA-driven FELs has been understood for almost 50 years, LPAs have historically had lower beam quality and stability, until now. Translating this technology into a stable light source has remained one of the field’s most stubborn engineering challenges.

    TAU Systems & Lawrence Berkeley Lab Achieve Breakthrough in Laser-Powered Accelerator, Enable 8+ Hours of Continuous FEL Output

    The TAU Systems team, in collaboration with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), achieved this breakthrough by engineering a suite of interlinking stabilisation technologies onto the Hundred Terawatt Undulator (HTU) experiment at Berkeley Lab’s BELLA Center. The result was 100 MeV electron beams delivered at 1 Hz with high consistency over a continuous ten-hour period, driving a self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) FEL operating at 420 nm (in the visible blue-ultraviolet range) for more than eight hours without any manual adjustments.

    Stephen Milton, VP of Accelerator Science at TAU Systems said:This is the moment the community has been working toward. We have shown that an LPA-driven FEL is not just a proof-of-concept experiment. It is a platform capable of delivering the stability that real scientific and industrial users demand.”

    Beyond simply operating the light source autonomously, the team used the extensive dataset collected during the run to map correlations between the properties of the drive laser, plasma source, and electron beam, and the resulting FEL output. These insights are already informing the next phase of performance improvements, with residual correlations in the data indicating that further gains in stability and brightness are within reach.

    “This reported level of reliability and performance of the LPA-driven FEL not only represents a great improvement toward demonstrating the potential for future light source applications,” says Finn Kohrell, a postdoctoral scholar in the BELLA Center at Berkeley Lab and lead author of the published results. “It also allows us to gather an unprecedented amount of data about the highly complex interaction between the LPA and FEL process, and to identify which parameters are most impactful for further improving the FEL performance.”

    The implications extend well beyond just one laboratory. Compact LPA-driven light sources have long been envisioned as a way to democratize access to high-brightness X-ray and UV beams, which are currently only available at a handful of national synchrotron and FEL facilities worldwide. Applications include structural biology, materials science, semiconductor lithography, medical imaging, and fundamental physics research. By demonstrating autonomous, multi-hour operation, TAU Systems and Berkeley Lab have cleared a critical barrier on the path to commercially deployable compact FELs.

    TAU Systems characterizes the current system as a powerful research platform for the broader LPA-driven FEL community, enabling systematic studies of accelerator-to-light-source coupling that were previously impossible without long-duration stable operation. The company expects the findings to accelerate progress across the field and inform the design of future compact light source installations.

  • Airrived Named Among Only 11 Startups in Gartner’s “Emerging Tech: AI Vendor Race — Startups to Watch in Agentic AI”

    DUBLIN, Calif.–We are at the inflection point. After decades of building systems that assist humans, we are crossing into an era where intelligent systems act autonomously — executing decisions, orchestrating workflows, and adapting to complex environments in real time. Most companies are still laying the groundwork. Airrived has arrived.

    Today, Airrived announces it has been recognized among only 11 startups globally in Gartner’s newly released report, “Emerging Tech: AI Vendor Race — Startups to Watch in Agentic AI” (published March 23, 2026). Of 129 companies evaluated, Airrived is the only one purpose-built for cybersecurity and IT — the domains where stakes are highest and trust is non-negotiable.

    “129 startups chasing Agentic AI. Only a few made the cut. And just one is focused on Cybersecurity and IT — Airrived. The Agentic era has AIRRIVED.”
    — Anurag Gurtu, Co-founder and CEO, Airrived

    A Different Kind of Foundation

    While much of the market remains fixated on copilots, wrappers, and orchestration layers dressed up as intelligence, Airrived is building something categorically different: the Agentic OS — a new foundational layer for the enterprise that doesn’t just assist, but executes, adapts, governs, and scales.

    The Agentic OS combines fine-tuned domain models, deep reasoning, multi-agent orchestration, and policy-driven control into a single governed infrastructure. It transforms autonomous AI from experimental capability into trusted, production-grade operation. Others are enabling AI to act. Airrived is defining how AI can be trusted to act.

    At the center of this vision is AetherClaw — Airrived’s flagship security capability and the clearest expression of its mission: autonomous systems that operate across every domain of the enterprise, governed by design, and trusted by default.

    “We are not building another layer on top of existing AI. We are building the operating system that makes autonomous AI safe enough to trust — and powerful enough to transform.”
    — Anurag Gurtu, Co-founder and CEO, Airrived

    Already in Production

    Months after emerging from stealth in February 2026, Airrived is not a promise — it is a platform. The company is already deployed in production at some of the world’s most demanding enterprises:

    • A Fortune 150 insurance company, running high-volume, mission-critical agentic workflows at enterprise scale.
    • A global bank, with governed autonomous agents operating across regulated financial environments.
    • One of the largest fast-casual restaurant chains in the world, deploying operational intelligence at scale.
    • A major telecom infrastructure provider, running autonomous operations across complex, high-availability infrastructure.

    These deployments are not pilots. They are proof that governed, reliable, scalable agentic intelligence is not a future capability — it is a present one.

    Industry Recognition

    Since emerging from stealth, Airrived has earned recognition from every major industry body in the agentic AI space: Gartner Tech Innovator in Agentic AI • Cybersecurity Excellence Award, Agentic AI Platform (highest votes) • Global InfoSec Award, Most Advanced in Agentic AI • Security Today CyberSecured Award • BIG Innovator in Agentic AI • 2026 AI Excellence Award, Business Intelligence Group.

    These honors are not accolades collected at a distance. They are independent validation that Airrived is delivering what the industry has long demanded: agentic AI that enterprises can actually trust.

    What Comes Next

    Gartner’s report makes clear that the urgent imperative for enterprises is to move beyond single-task AI toward multiagent systems capable of orchestrating complex, cross-domain workflows at scale. The question is no longer whether agentic AI will transform the enterprise. The question is who will build the infrastructure that makes it safe to do so.

    Airrived has answered that question.

  • Rising Costs Keep Truck Rentals Firm in March: Shriram Mobility Bulletin

    New Delhi, Apr 07: India’s mobility and logistics activity remained stable in March, with truck rentals across key trunk routes holding firm and witnessing marginal month-on-month increases. This firmness was supported by year-end dispatches and rising operating cost pressures, even as overall freight movement remained steady.
     
    On a year-on-year (Y-O-Y) basis, trucking activity showed resilience across most routes. The Delhi–Kolkata–Delhi corridor recorded a 10% increase, followed by the Bengaluru–Mumbai–Bengaluru route at 9%. The Delhi–Mumbai–Delhi, Mumbai–Chennai–Mumbai and Delhi–Chennai–Delhi routes each registered growth of 8%, underscoring sustained inter-city freight movement.
     
    Month-on-month (M-O-M), limited increases were observed across several corridors, indicating stable demand conditions. Rentals on the Delhi–Kolkata–Delhi route rose by 1.8%, Bengaluru–Mumbai–Bengaluru by 1.5%, while the Delhi–Mumbai–Delhi and Mumbai–Chennai–Mumbai routes increased by 1.2% each.
     
    The firmness in rentals can be attributed to continued industrial and consumption-led movement at the close of the financial year, coupled with stable fleet availability and the absence of major supply-side disruptions. However, LPG tanker movement was significantly impacted during the month due to curtailed supplies.
     
    Looking ahead, the ongoing conflict in the Middle East is likely to exert further pressure on logistics operations through rising costs. Tyre manufacturers have announced price hikes effective April 1, driven by higher crude oil prices and increased input costs. This, along with the seasonal increase in toll charges from April 1, is expected to push truck rentals higher in the coming months. Additionally, an early onset of summer could lead to some moderation in activity levels.
     
    Vehicle sales trends presented a mixed picture on a month-on-month basis. Passenger vehicle segments performed strongly, with motor car sales rising 11% and two-wheeler sales increasing 14%, supported by year-end discounts and improved buying sentiment. In contrast, agriculture-linked segments witnessed moderation. Commercial tractor sales declined by 3%, while agricultural tractor and agricultural trailer sales fell by 9% and 14% respectively, reflecting seasonal factors.
     
    Select commercial vehicle segments, however, showed positive momentum. Construction equipment vehicle sales increased by 13% and maxi cab sales rose by 11% month-on-month, indicating continued demand from infrastructure activity and passenger mobility.
     
    Electric vehicle (EV) sales recorded strong growth during March. Electric two-wheeler sales surged 72% month-on-month, followed by electric passenger vehicles at 57% and electric three-wheelers at 8%, driven by increasing adoption in urban mobility and last-mile connectivity amid fuel price volatility. On a year-on-year basis, EV growth remained robust, with electric three-wheelers up 166%, electric passenger cars rising 138%, and electric two-wheelers increasing 53%.
     
    Commenting on the trends, Sudarshan Holla, Joint Managing Director & Chief Operating Officer – Commercial Vehicles, Shriram Finance, said: “The ongoing conflict in the Middle East is beginning to disrupt logistics activity across the country. Higher toll charges from April 1, cost pass-through by tyre manufacturers, and the likelihood of rising fuel prices are set to push truck rentals higher this month. If the conflict persists, cost pressures on operators will intensify. The key positive in March was the strong performance of car and two-wheeler sales.”
     
    Macro indicators also pointed to a gradual recovery in movement activity. FASTag collections increased by 3.8% in volume and 3.9% in value on a month-on-month basis, indicating stable highway traffic and freight flows during the period. Petrol and diesel consumption recorded strong growth in March 2026, with petrol volumes rising 13% month-on-month to 3.78 MT and 8.0% year-on-year. Diesel consumption also saw robust momentum, increasing 14% over February to 8.73 MT, marking an 8.1% rise compared to the same period last year.
