  • Ahmedabad Engineer Ankit Patel Follows His Passion, Builds Career as Full-Time Artist

    Ahmedabad Engineer Ankit Patel Follows His Passion, Builds Career as Full-Time Artist

    Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], June 25: Choosing passion over professional certainty is a decision few people can make. For Ahmedabad-based artist Ankit Patel, however, the decision to leave behind a career in engineering and pursue music full-time has shaped a journey spanning hundreds of performances across India and overseas.

    Ankit began his professional career as a production manager after completing his B. Tech from Ganpat University, Mehsana, and his Master’s in Machine Designing from Indus University, Ahmedabad. While engineering offered stability and a promising career path, music remained his true passion and calling.

    Today, at 36, Ankit is a full-time performer who has entertained audiences at over 2,000 events, including corporate gatherings, birthdays, anniversaries, wedding receptions and club events. His performances have also taken him to countries such as the Thailand, Vietnam, the Maldives, Sri Lanka and the UAE.

    Ankit recently marked a major milestone in his musical journey by presenting his first ticketed one-man-band concert at HK Hall in Ahmedabad. Attended by more than 500 music enthusiasts, the performance received an enthusiastic response, demonstrating the growing appetite for innovative live music experiences.

    Over the years, Ankit has developed a distinctive identity as a live performer through his one-man-band format, in which he combines singing with instrumental performance. He has developed a style that enables him to blend different genres and create engaging musical experiences as a solo performer.

    Music entered Ankit’s life at an early age. He started learning tabla when he was 10 and subsequently trained in dholak, guitar and keyboard, eventually making the keyboard his primary instrument.

    “Music was always more than a hobby for me. Even while studying engineering and later working professionally, I knew performing was what truly brought me joy. Leaving a conventional career path was difficult, but I believed that if I dedicated myself fully to music, I would find my place. Looking back, I have no regrets,” says Ankit.

    His journey has been defined not only by performance but also by continuous learning and self-improvement. Despite his extensive experience on stage, Ankit remains committed to honing his craft and expanding his musical horizons.

    Ankit has been undergoing vocal training under Vikas Parikh of the Mewati Gharana for the past six years and considers himself a lifelong student of music.

    “The more I learn, the more I realise how much there is still to learn. Music is an ocean, and I have only explored a small part of it. That thought keeps me motivated every day,” he says.

    Inspired by the musical journey of renowned playback singer Arijit Singh, Ankit aspires to further strengthen his identity as a singer while continuing to evolve as a performer. He is currently working on Gujarati songs and Navratri-focused music, with the aim of reaching wider audiences through both traditional and contemporary musical expressions.

  • Quantum Canvas: India’s First UV Immersive Fine Art Exhibition Opens on 25 June’26

    Quantum Canvas: India’s First UV Immersive Fine Art Exhibition Opens on 25 June’26

    Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 25: C Cube Art Gallery, celebrating a decade of excellence, inaugurated Quantum Canvas, India’s first UV Immersive Fine Art Exhibition, on 25 June 2026 at Balasaheb Thackeray Kaladalan, Thane. The exhibition will be open to the public from 26 to 28 June 2026, from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM. The inauguration was graced by Padma Shri Achyut Palav, along with Yogesh Shinde, Founder Director of C Cube Art Gallery; Pranjal Shinde, Co-Founder of C Cube Art Gallery; and Kiah Surve, Director of the company.

    Featuring works by international artist Dhyan Passika alongside Indian artists Chetan Shetty and P.L. Rane, Quantum Canvas derives its name from the idea that every artwork holds more than what first meets the eye. Presented in a specially designed darkened environment, Dhyan’s artwork reveals hidden colours, pigments and visual layers that emerge only under ultraviolet light, creating an immersive and meditative viewing experience. As viewers move through the gallery, familiar canvases transform before them, unveiling new dimensions of artistic expression and offering a fresh perspective on the same work of art.

    Designed as a walk-through immersive experience, Quantum Canvas invites art lovers, collectors, students and cultural enthusiasts to explore how light can alter perception, revealing details and artistic elements that would otherwise remain unseen.

    Speaking about the exhibition, Yogesh Shinde, Founder Director, C Cube Art Gallery, said, “Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently remarked that art and culture have a unique ability to bring people closer. At C Cube Art Gallery, we have always believed that art should inspire curiosity, conversation and connection. Through Quantum Canvas, we wanted to create an experience that encourages people to slow down, look again and discover something unexpected. It is a privilege to bring together artists, collectors, connoisseurs and cultural patrons around an exhibition that invites audiences to look beyond the obvious.”

    Kiah Surve, Director, C Cube Art Gallery, added, “In a world increasingly shaped by Artificial Intelligence, it is Creative Intelligence that continues to define our humanity, our ability to feel, imagine and create meaning. Globally, Asian art is gaining significant recognition for its depth, cultural richness and immense potential to shape the future of the international art landscape.”

    Endorsing the concept, Padma Shri Achyut Palav, one of India’s most celebrated calligraphers and the chief guest for the inauguration, remarked, “Art is a force that connects people and poses a profound challenge to human thought. What C Cube Art Gallery has conceived with Quantum Canvas is a bold and innovative step in how we experience art. I extend my heartiest congratulations to every artist and organiser who has made this vision a reality.”

    Media outreach for the exhibition is being managed by Krescendo Communications.

  • From Chatbots To Cardiac Signals: Scanbo’s Ashissh Raichura On India’s Next Health AI Test

    From Chatbots To Cardiac Signals: Scanbo’s Ashissh Raichura On India’s Next Health AI Test

    Ashissh Raichura, Founder & CEO, Scanbo Technologies

    Surat (Gujarat) [India], June 25: India is having a healthcare AI moment. Every week brings a new chatbot that answers medical questions, a new app that promises to diagnose from a photograph, a new model that scores well on a medical exam. The excitement is real, and some of it is justified. But after a decade of building and deploying AI diagnostics in real clinical settings, I want to offer a note of caution about where we are putting our attention.

    We are spending most of our energy on the easy half of the problem and almost none on the hard half. And the hard half is the one that actually determines whether AI improves health outcomes for ordinary Indians or simply generates impressive demonstrations that never reach the people who need them.

    The chatbot era is loud. The real test is quieter.

    A chatbot is software. It is relatively cheap to build, easy to demonstrate, and instantly shareable. You can launch one from a laptop and have a million people try it in a week. That is why so much of the Indian health AI conversation has gravitated toward conversational tools and consumer apps. They are visible, they are fundable, and they make for good headlines.

    A cardiac signal is something else entirely. To capture a clean, diagnostic-grade reading of a human heart at the point of care, you need a reliable device, accurate sensors, consistent calibration, and a way to turn that raw signal into something a clinician can act on. None of that is glamorous. None of it trends on social media. But it is the actual foundation of clinical AI. Because an algorithm, however sophisticated, is only as good as the signal you feed it. Garbage in, garbage out has not stopped being true just because the model got bigger.

    This is India’s real health AI test. Not whether we can build clever software, we clearly can, but whether we can build the diagnostic infrastructure that makes the software meaningful in a clinic in a small town with unreliable power and one overworked physician.

    Signal quality is the foundation everyone skips

    In the clinics where our technology operates, the lesson that repeats itself is simple. The quality of the AI output depends entirely on the quality of the input. A device that captures over a hundred thousand data points in a single blood pressure measurement gives the AI something rich to work with. A poorly calibrated reading taken in a hurry gives you a confident-sounding answer built on noise.

    Most of India’s primary healthcare still runs on fragmented records, basic equipment, and data scattered across systems that do not speak to each other. You cannot build trustworthy clinical AI on that foundation. The starting point is not a better algorithm. It is a better signal, captured reliably, at the moment of patient contact. We learned early that if you do not control the device, you do not control the signal, and if you do not control the signal, you cannot stand behind the diagnosis. That is why we chose to build the full stack, device, intelligence, and clinical record, as one system rather than stitching together parts that were never designed to work together.

    India’s real opportunity is at the frontline

    Here is what excites me about India specifically. We have one of the largest frontline health workforces in the world. Over a million ASHA workers and hundreds of thousands of community health workers are already in the villages, already trusted, already doing the work. They are an extraordinary national asset that no other country can match at this scale.

    The wrong move is to bypass them with a chatbot and call it access. The right move is to put reliable, AI-powered diagnostic tools in their hands. When you do that, you do not get “better than nothing.” You get something genuinely powerful. A trusted human who knows the family, equipped with intelligence that makes her as capable as a specialist in a city hospital. An algorithm on a phone can give a villager an answer. A health worker with the right tools gives them care. Those are not the same thing, and India of all countries should not confuse them.

    The data question we cannot postpone

    There is one more part of this test that we are not talking about enough. As India builds the largest pool of health and biometric data on earth, through digital health programmes, wearables, and connected devices, we are creating something of enormous value. That data will power the next generation of medicine. The question is who owns it and who benefits from it.

    I believe this data is a sovereign asset and, more fundamentally, it belongs to the people who generate it. A citizen should have a say in how their biological data is used and a stake in the value it creates, not simply receive a free app in exchange for the most personal information they will ever produce. I call this principle dignity over dependency. Health data is not exhaust to be harvested. It is a national resource and a personal one, and how India governs it now will shape the trust people place in health AI for a generation.

    What must change

    Three things need to shift if India is to pass this test.

    First, we must value the hard infrastructure as much as the visible software. The funding, the talent, and the policy attention should flow toward diagnostic signal capture at the frontline, not only toward consumer-facing apps. The unglamorous work is the work that changes outcomes.

    Second, we must design for the clinician and the health worker, not around them. Technology that adds steps to an overloaded clinic gets abandoned, no matter how accurate it is. The test of any tool is whether it makes the human delivering care more capable, and whether the patient ends up better served.

    Third, we must treat data governance as foundational, not as an afterthought. Build the consent, the ownership, and the participation from the start. Trust is the one thing that, once lost, no algorithm can recover.

    India does not lack ambition or talent in health AI. What will separate real progress from expensive experimentation is whether we are willing to do the harder, quieter work beneath the headlines. The chatbots are the easy part. The cardiac signal, captured cleanly, in a real clinic, for a real patient who owns their own data, that is the test. And it is one I believe India can pass, if we choose to build for dignity rather than dependency.

    Ashissh Raichura is the Founder and CEO of Scanbo Technologies, which builds AI-powered point-of-care diagnostic technology. He is the author of the manifesto “Dignity over Dependency” (dignityoverdependency.org).

  • How Soumik Bandyopadhyay Is Guiding Indian Promoters Through Generational Transitions

    How Soumik Bandyopadhyay Is Guiding Indian Promoters Through Generational Transitions

    Soumik Bandyopadhyay, Founder and Managing Director of Soumik Bandyopadhyay Advisors Pvt. Ltd. (SBAPL)

    New Delhi [India], June 25: India is entering one of the most significant wealth and leadership transitions in its business history. Across industries, founders who built successful enterprises over the past three to four decades are now confronting a challenge that is very different from building businesses: ensuring that those businesses continue to thrive across generations.

    For many promoters, the transition is not simply about handing over operational control. It involves addressing questions of leadership, governance, ownership, family alignment, and long-term legacy. While businesses can often be structured through systems and processes, family transitions involve people, relationships, and emotions, making them significantly more complex.

    It is within this context that Soumik Bandyopadhyay has built a distinctive advisory practice focused on helping business families navigate these critical transitions.

    Looking Beyond Succession

    One of the central themes in Soumik Bandyopadhyay’s work is the belief that succession planning is often misunderstood.

    Many promoters view succession as identifying the next leader or transferring ownership. However, according to Soumik, leadership transition is only one component of a much larger process.

    A successful generational transition requires families to think about continuity at multiple levels. It involves clarifying roles, creating governance structures, aligning expectations, preparing future leaders, and ensuring that decision-making frameworks can survive beyond any one individual.

    In many family enterprises, discussions around succession begin too late. By the time the topic becomes urgent, family dynamics and leadership expectations may already be deeply entrenched. Soumik’s approach encourages families to start these conversations much earlier, allowing time for alignment and preparation.

    Bridging Two Very Different Perspectives

    One of the recurring challenges within family businesses is the difference in outlook between generations.

    The founding generation often carries memories of building the business through uncertainty, sacrifice, and personal risk. Their decisions are shaped by experience and a strong instinct for preservation.

    The next generation enters the business under very different circumstances. They are often globally educated, technologically aware, and exposed to new industries and investment opportunities. Their focus may be on innovation, diversification, and growth.

    Neither perspective is inherently right or wrong. The challenge lies in creating a framework where both can coexist productively.

    A significant part of Soumik’s advisory work involves helping families bridge this gap. Using professional tools and structures, he focuses on creating structured conversations that allow different viewpoints to be heard and understood; rather than positioning generations against one another.

    This process often helps families move from disagreement to alignment.

    Creating Structures That Outlast Individuals

    Throughout his career, Soumik has consistently emphasized the importance of institutionalizing family enterprises.

    Many successful promoter-led businesses rely heavily on the judgement, relationships, and leadership of the founder. While this can drive rapid growth, it also creates dependency.

    As businesses become larger and more complex, this dependency becomes a risk.

    Soumik advocates for governance mechanisms that reduce reliance on individuals and strengthen reliance on systems. This includes establishing family councils, governance frameworks, ownership structures, and decision-making protocols that can continue functioning across generations.

    The objective is not to reduce the founder’s influence. It is to ensure that the business remains stable even when leadership transitions occur.

    In his experience, businesses that invest in governance early tend to navigate transitions more effectively than those that rely solely on informal arrangements.

    Addressing the Human Side of Wealth

    One aspect that distinguishes family business transitions from corporate leadership changes is the emotional dimension involved.

    Questions of succession often intersect with questions of identity, control, trust, and recognition. Family members may have different perceptions of fairness, responsibility, and opportunity.

    According to Soumik, many conflicts within business families are not caused by financial disagreements alone. They often stem from communication gaps and unspoken or perceived expectations.

    This is why his work frequently involves facilitating discussions that allow families to address sensitive issues openly with the context of governance structures. These conversations may involve leadership roles, ownership structures, future aspirations, or differing risk appetites.

    By creating a neutral environment for such discussions, families are often able to address challenges before they evolve into larger conflicts.

    Preparing the Next Generation for Stewardship

    A recurring theme in Soumik’s work is the distinction between inheritance and stewardship.

    In many family businesses, the next generation is expected to inherit leadership responsibilities. However, inheritance alone does not automatically create readiness.

    Future leaders must develop the ability to make decisions, understand risk, manage stakeholders, and lead through uncertainty. They also need to appreciate the values and principles that contributed to the business’s success in the first place.

    Soumik often encourages families to expose younger members to governance discussions early. This allows them to understand not only how decisions are made, but also why they are made.

    Such exposure helps build confidence, accountability, and long-term perspective.

    Rather than viewing leadership transition as a single event, he sees it as a gradual developmental process.

    Balancing Growth and Preservation

    As Indian businesses become increasingly global, promoters face a new challenge: balancing entrepreneurial ambition with long-term preservation.

    The next generation may seek expansion into new markets, technologies, or investment opportunities. At the same time, the family may need to preserve wealth, maintain stability, and manage risk.

    Soumik’s advisory approach focuses on creating structures that allow both objectives to coexist.

    Through governance frameworks and family office structures, businesses can create pathways for innovation while maintaining oversight and accountability. This reduces the likelihood of conflict between growth-oriented and preservation-oriented perspectives.

    The result is often a more balanced approach to long-term value creation.

    The Growing Importance of Family Offices

    As wealth becomes more diversified and family structures become more complex, family offices are playing an increasingly important role in supporting generational transitions.

    For Soumik, a family office is not merely an investment platform. It is a governance platform that helps families manage the relationship between wealth, ownership, and continuity.

    Through family office structures, families can create systems for decision-making, risk management, communication, and succession planning. These structures help ensure that family wealth is managed with the same discipline and foresight that helped create it.

    As more Indian promoters recognize the importance of institutionalizing wealth management, the role of family offices is likely to become even more significant.

    A Focus on Continuity

    At the heart of Soumik Bandyopadhyay’s work is a simple belief: building wealth and sustaining wealth are two very different challenges.

    Many entrepreneurs spend decades creating successful businesses. However, preserving those businesses across generations requires a different set of skills, structures, and conversations.

    Through his work with Indian business families, Soumik helps promoters prepare for that reality. By focusing on governance, communication, leadership development, and long-term planning, he supports families in creating continuity that extends beyond individual leaders.

    As India enters a period of significant intergenerational wealth transfer, these conversations are becoming increasingly important.

    For many promoters, the future of the business will not be determined solely by market conditions or growth opportunities. It will be determined by how effectively they prepare the next generation to carry the legacy forward.

    In that journey, structured guidance, thoughtful governance, and early preparation can make all the difference.

  • Doctors Dr. Surupa Sharma and Dr. Anupam Sharma Bring Midlife Conversations to Light Through Menopause and Andropause

    Doctors Dr. Surupa Sharma and Dr. Anupam Sharma Bring Midlife Conversations to Light Through Menopause and Andropause

    New Delhi [India], June 24: Dr. Surupa Sharma and Dr. Anupam Sharma, renowned medical professionals from Sahibabad, Ghaziabad, have co-authored the insightful book Menopause and Andropause, a unique blend of memoir, fiction, and medical guidance that explores the emotional and physical transformations experienced during midlife. While Dr. Surupa Sharma is a gynaecologist, laparoscopic surgeon, and menopause care specialist, Dr. Anupam Sharma is a urologist and kidney transplant surgeon with a special interest in men’s emotional health.

    The book emerged from their own midlife experiences as well as years of observing the struggles, fears, and emotional journeys of their patients. Written over the course of a year, the book reflects not only scientific understanding but also deeply personal insights into the changing realities faced by both men and women during middle age.

    Menopause and Andropause addresses the many challenges associated with midlife, including emotional changes, relationship issues, identity shifts, hormonal transitions, and mental well-being. Rather than presenting the topic purely as a clinical guide, the authors have chosen an engaging memoir-fiction format that combines real-life experiences with educational information, making the book relatable and accessible to readers from all walks of life.

    According to the authors, midlife changes are inevitable, but suffering through them in silence is not. Through this book, they aim to create awareness, encourage open conversations, and help readers understand that support and healing are available. Their message — “Me No Pause, We No Pause” — beautifully emphasizes resilience, togetherness, and the importance of emotional support during life’s transitional phases.

    The authors hope readers will come away with practical guidance on managing midlife challenges and a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships. They believe that every reader’s journey through the book can become an act of self-healing, while every referral of the book to another person can serve as a compassionate handhold for someone in need.

    Beyond their medical practice, both doctors remain deeply concerned about the emotional and psychological struggles faced by today’s youth and adults alike. Through their writing, they encourage people to read, understand, communicate openly, and express their emotions without fear or stigma.

    Menopause and Andropause stand as a thoughtful and compassionate guide for anyone navigating the complexities of midlife, reminding readers that change is natural, healing is possible, and no one has to face these transitions alone.

    The book is available on Amazon:
