Mar 11: L’Atelier 1664, the lifestyle platform inspired by 1664 Blanc, has announced a creative association with leading Indian design house Abraham & Thakore. The partnership brings together modern French lifestyle sensibilities with contemporary Indian design.

Through this association, L’Atelier 1664 and Abraham & Thakore will collaborate on a series of curated experiences across fashion, design and culture. The initiative aims to celebrate craftsmanship, creativity and modern expressions of style by connecting Parisian elegance with Indian design thinking.

L’Atelier 1664 reflects the philosophy of 1664 Blanc – Good Taste with a Twist. As a lifestyle platform, it brings together tastemakers from fashion, design and cuisine to create immersive cultural experiences that celebrate individuality, creativity and refined living.

Abraham & Thakore are known for their distinctive approach to Indian design, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics. For more than three decades, the design house has been recognised for its understated elegance, clean silhouettes and thoughtful use of textiles

Speaking about the association, Partha Sarathi Jha, Vice President, Marketing, Carlsberg India Private Limited shares

“L’Atelier 1664 was created as a platform that brings together emerging tastes, creative styles and contemporary culture trends. Our association with Abraham & Thakore brings together modern French style with Indian design, and we look forward to creating experiences that celebrate craftsmanship, individuality and creative expression.”

The visionary designer duo, Abraham & Thakore adds,

“This association with L’Atelier 1664 reflects a meeting of sensibilities – French art de vivre and the richness of Indian craftsmanship. It is a fusion of ideas that celebrates heritage, creativity, and a contemporary way of living.”

Together, the alliance forms a considered cultural exchange rather than a conventional collaboration. French modernity meets Indian craftsmanship; bold blue meets architectural white. What unites them is a belief that taste is most compelling when it carries a point of view and that true elegance lies in the confidence to add a twist.

Marking just the beginning of a creative association, the collaboration will extend beyond the runway into a series of tastefully curated events and store-led engagements across India in the months ahead.

Mumbai, Mar 11: India’s indoor amusement industry is rapidly evolving from a children-centric segment into a major pillar of the country’s growing experience economy, according to a new report titled “Ready, Set, Play: India’s Indoor Amusement Industry at a Turning Point” released by ANAROCK in collaboration with the Indian Association of Amusement Parks and Industries (IAAPI).

 The report estimates the current market size of Indoor Amusement Centres (IACs) at approximately ₹15,000 crore, reflecting sustained consumer demand, increasing formalization, and changing post-pandemic leisure preferences. Consumer spending in the sector has surged 30–40% compared to pre-pandemic levels, while Tier I cities are recording 10–15% higher per-customer spend than Tier II markets.

According to industry suppliers, consumer outlay in indoor amusement centres has increased by 15–20% in recent years, driven by greater participation, longer dwell times, and the growing popularity of immersive entertainment formats.

Commenting on the findings, Anuj Kejriwal, CEO – Retail, Leasing & Industrial Logistics at ANAROCK, said the industry is entering a transformative phase.

“India’s indoor amusement industry is evolving from predominantly children-centric recreation into a key component of the country’s experience-driven economy. Consumer spending intensity across IAC formats has strengthened significantly. As the sector expands, safety standards and regulatory clarity must remain top priorities, especially given the high footfall and complex equipment involved in these facilities.”

Post-Pandemic Boom in Experiential Demand

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated a shift from product-led consumption to experience-driven leisure activities. With families seeking safe and engaging recreational options, indoor amusement centres have benefited from being climate-controlled and family-friendly entertainment environments.

The report’s market survey, which primarily included respondents aged 25–44, found strong demand for multi-attraction formats such as arcades, kids’ play areas, bowling alleys, and immersive gaming experiences. More than 50% of visitors spend over ₹1,000 per visit beyond ticket purchases, with additional spending on gaming credits, food and beverages, and other add-ons.

Industry Evolution and Market Outlook

The report notes that India’s indoor amusement sector generated approximately ₹8,400 crore (USD 1.009 billion) in 2024 and is projected to grow to ₹15,600 crore (USD 1.879 billion) by 2030, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.3%, which surpasses the global growth rate of around 9%.

Globally, North America currently dominates the indoor amusement industry with nearly 39% market share, but the Asia-Pacific region, including India and China, is expected to drive future growth due to rapid urbanization and rising disposable incomes.

Expanding Formats and Business Models

Indoor amusement centres today span a wide variety of formats, including kids’ play zones, arcade gaming arenas, sports attractions such as bowling and trampoline parks, adventure experiences like go-karting and obstacle courses, as well as technology-driven entertainment including VR and esports gaming.

Arcades continue to remain the most popular attraction across age groups, while family-oriented play zones are particularly favored by households with young children.

Operators are increasingly focusing on capital efficiency and measured expansion, with mall-based multi-format centres becoming a dominant model in urban locations. Meanwhile, standalone and hybrid formats are emerging in densely populated areas to attract new customer segments.

Regulatory and Safety Challenges

Despite the industry’s growth potential, the report highlights several structural challenges. These include the 18% GST applied on tickets and rides, which increases pricing pressure in a cost-sensitive market, as well as varying licensing requirements across different states.

Industry stakeholders have also raised concerns about the absence of a national regulatory framework for indoor amusement centres, which can lead to operational risks and inconsistent safety standards. Operators are calling for standardized safety guidelines, streamlined municipal and fire clearances, and structured training programs for staff.

Roadmap for Sustainable Growth

The report recommends a number of measures to strengthen the sector’s long-term growth. These include rationalizing GST rates, establishing national safety and compliance standards, introducing policies that recognize indoor amusement centres as key urban entertainment infrastructure, and encouraging domestic manufacturing of amusement equipment.

According to Ankur Maheshwari, Chairman of Indian Association of Amusement Parks and Industries and Founder of Masti Zone, the report represents an important milestone for the sector.

“For over two decades, IAAPI has been at the center of India’s amusement industry. This report brings together insights from operators, developers, consumers, and policymakers to provide a comprehensive view of the indoor amusement ecosystem. With the right policy support and incentives, the industry can unlock significant growth and employment opportunities in the coming years.”

As experiential entertainment continues to gain traction across urban India, the report concludes that indoor amusement centres are poised to become a key component of the country’s evolving leisure and lifestyle economy.

“futuREady, our new strategic plan, is a crucial step in the future of Renault Group. In an increasingly competitive environment, we can build on strong fundamentals—our brands, our products, and our financial results,” said François Provost, CEO of Renault Group.

“Since my appointment last July, our global teams have worked together to design a plan that places the Group on the path toward robust and sustainable performance. Through futuREady, we reaffirm our long-term commitment to innovation, performance, and delivering value for our customers worldwide.”

From Success Story to Success System

The Renaulution plan, introduced in 2021, successfully repositioned Renault Group among Europe’s leading automotive manufacturers by focusing on value creation, clear brand positioning, and a strong product renewal program that included 32 new model launches within five years.

With futuREady, the company now aims to build on this success and create a sustainable long-term growth model based on four strategic pillars:

The company also maintains strong partnerships with global automotive players including:

• Nissan

• Mitsubishi Motors

• Volvo Group

• Geely

• Ford Motor Company

Fintech and SaaS veteran with more than 30 years of experience to lead company’s technology initiatives

 

FOLSOM, Calif. — March 11 — One Inc, the leading digital payments network for the insurance industry, today announced the appointment of fintech transformation leader Bryan Thompson as Chief Technology Officer (CTO). With deep payments expertise, Thompson will lead the vision, strategy, and development of One Inc’s technology. He will oversee the company’s global IT roadmap, innovation initiatives, and enterprise security.

Bryan is an expert in fintech and SaaS transformations, with more than 30 years of experience building high-performing organizations focused on innovation and operational excellence. He has a proven track record in technology development, security, and large-scale platform modernization. Across enterprise and startup environments, Thompson has led financial services and SaaS companies through acquisitions, integrations, and major change initiatives. He has also built data and AI platforms that accelerate growth while improving customer experience, efficiency, and reliability.

Prior to joining One Inc, he served as CTO of professional business platform 8am (formerly AffiniPay), where he helped drive rapid SaaS growth and navigated multiple strategic acquisitions. He also served as CTO at Heartland Payment Systems, where he modernized merchant services for businesses across key sectors. Earlier in his career at EDS, Thompson built expertise in high-volume transaction processing—experience that aligns with One Inc’s mission to process complex insurance payments securely, reliably, and at scale.

“We’re pleased to welcome Bryan to our growing team of Onesters as we advance our mission to create a unified digital payments network that connects the insurance ecosystem,” said Ian Drysdale, CEO at One Inc. “Bryan’s track record leading technology development, engineering, security, and infrastructure will be critical as we build new capabilities that allow carriers to operate more efficiently and deliver on the promise of insurance.”

San Antonio, TX, March 10, 2026 — Rackspace Technology® (NASDAQ: RXT), a leading hybrid multicloud and AI solutions company, today announced a strategic partnership with Uniphore, the Business AI leader backed by NVIDIA and AMD, to deliver the industry’s first Infrastructure-to-Agents architecture, offered as an outcomes-based service. The partnership reflects a shared ambition to unlock $100 million in enterprise AI deployments as customers move from AI experimentation to production at scale, without sacrificing governance, security, or control. This is especially relevant for regulated industries where choice, security and sovereignty are non-negotiable requirements.

Operationalizing AI in production remains a challenge due to the complexity of choices across the stack. By integrating Uniphore’s Business AI Cloud with Rackspace’s private cloud infrastructure, Rackspace will deliver a full-stack secure and governed AI private cloud that includes: advanced inferencing capable of running on both NVIDIA and AMD compute architectures; Data Preparation-as-a-Service; fine-tuned Small Language Models (SLMs)-as-a-Service; and industry-specific AI agents-as-a-Service.

“For the first time, enterprises in regulated industries do not have to choose between moving fast on AI and maintaining the governance and control their business requires. Rackspace is taking on that accountability,” said Gajen Kandiah, CEO of Rackspace Technology.  “We are not just providing infrastructure, we are committing to outcomes, and that changes the nature of the relationship between a technology partner and an enterprise customer.” For enterprises, the conversation has shifted from choosing between GPUs and CPUs, or open versus proprietary Large Language Models (LLMs), to driving measurable business outcomes.

Through this partnership, Rackspace brings deep expertise operating private clouds and optimizing public environments, backed by forward-deployed engineers. These forward-deployed engineers, embedded directly in customer environments, are trained on the Uniphore platform and accountable for delivering measurable outcomes from day one. The architecture is designed to extend across hybrid and public cloud environments, ensuring that enterprises with mixed deployment models can access the same governed, outcomes-based AI stack without compromise. The result is an end-to-end governed operating model delivering an outcomes-based service with control, accountability and measurable results.

“Business AI Cloud adoption is seeing exponential growth globally due to its sovereign and open architecture and what enterprises are telling us is that they need business outcomes. Rackspace’s adoption of Uniphore’s Business AI Cloud allows our customers to access all five layers of our offering spanning Inferencing, Data, Knowledge, Model, and Agents, on Rackspace’s secure and governed enterprise AI private cloud. For customers looking for sovereign AI solutions, this is a game changer,” said Umesh Sachdev, CEO and Co-founder of Uniphore.

Rackspace has over 20,000 mid-market and enterprise customers spanning industries such as healthcare, financial services, insurance and others. Additionally, Uniphore will move select enterprise inferencing workloads to Rackspace’s private cloud to deliver a Sovereign AI offering.

“This Rackspace–Uniphore deal packs real punch for organizations struggling to get beyond AI pilot mode”, said David Cushman, Executive Research Leader, HFS Research. “It couples Uniphore’s ‘get-you-going-fast’ AI platform with a Forward-Deployed Engineer (FDE)-style delivery model and governed private cloud, that gets you to value fast, but with control. That’s something most mid-market organizations simply don’t have and will be particularly welcome in regulated industries.”

“While the drive to scale AI across enterprise systems is high, many organizations find their progress stalled by the dual challenges of technical complexity and regulatory compliance,” said Brian Jones, Chief Information Officer of Valley Medical Center. “It is a significant milestone to see Rackspace and Uniphore join forces. This partnership can be a game changer for organizations in highly regulated sectors, providing a robust framework to scale AI and extract tangible value from complex data landscapes.”

For customers, this partnership will deliver:

• From AI pilot to production at scale: Most enterprises are stuck running AI experiments that never make it to production. This partnership delivers a unified, governed environment spanning infrastructure all the way to agents, enabling the path from pilot to production to be measured in weeks, rather than years.
• Data that is ready for AI: Most enterprises have data, but not in a form that AI can use. Uniphore’s data agents accelerate modernization, so enterprise data is structured, clean, and ready to power real workflows, without a multi-year transformation program standing in the way.
• Industry-specific AI that teams can easily deploy: Pre-packaged solutions built on SLMs and agentic workflows provide business teams with a faster path to automation, with governance built in from the start.
• The right compute at the right cost: Enterprises no longer have to over-provision or lock into a single architecture. Rackspace optimizes CPU and GPU environments, enabling each workload to run efficiently.

Hyderabad, March 10:  Smartphone’s Pulse 2 goes live on Flipkart on March 11, 2026, at 12 noon, with Hyderabad firmly in the brand’s sights for what comes next.

The city ranks among Ai+ Smartphone’s top 10 markets nationally, and the brand isn’t slowing down. Hyderabad’s young, digitally-native consumers, streaming more, gaming more, and spending smarter,  are exactly who Pulse 2 was built for. As demand for feature-packed, value-first smartphones surges across Telangana, Ai+ Smartphone  sees the market as a key driver of its next growth chapter.

“Hyderabad consumers know what they want: real performance, real value, no compromises,” said Madhav Sheth, CEO, Ai+ Smartphone and Founder, NxtQuantum Shift Technologies. “We designed Pulse 1 last year to deliver on all three expectations. Today, Pulse 2 takes that promise further. It’s an upgrade designed for people who are passionate about growing and evolving,” he added.

With Hyderabad increasingly shopping online-first, Flipkart is the natural launchpad, giving city consumers the same day access and first-day pricing as buyers anywhere in the country.

New Delhi, Mar 10: ProMobi Technologies today announced the addition of Apple TV Management to Scalefusion, its unified endpoint management platform. This release enables IT teams to manage Apple TV devices with Scalefusion as part of their broader multi-OS support.

Apple TV devices are widely used in business environments for conference room displays, digital signage, and single-purpose kiosks across offices, healthcare facilities, and retail spaces. However, managing these devices has always required separate tools and manual configuration, making it difficult to maintain consistency or deploy changes at scale. Scalefusion‘s tvOS support brings Apple TV management into the unified dashboard, allowing IT teams to set up, secure, and monitor these devices with the same simplicity they’ve come to expect from every other endpoint they manage.

IT teams can now deploy and manage Apple TV devices without being on-site. Devices stay configured for their intended use, whether that’s a conference room display or a locked-down kiosk. Security policies apply consistently across all Apple TVs, and updates can be deferred to align with business needs to prevent disruptions. This eliminates the need for separate management tools or manual configuration work that previously made Apple TV difficult to manage at scale.

“With support already in place for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, ChromeOS, and Linux, Apple tvOS is the next logical addition to the platform,” said Sriram Kakarala, Chief Product Officer at Scalefusion.

“Apple TV has become a legitimate part of how businesses operate, but managing it has always been an afterthought. We wanted to change that. IT teams should not have to work differently just because the device is different, and that is exactly what this addition addresses,” he added.

Scalefusion‘s tvOS support reinforces what the platform has been built around, giving IT teams a single place to manage every device their organization depends on as that list continues to grow.
