Bengaluru to get Israeli innovation centre

DHNS

October 11, 2018

Bengaluru, Oct 11: India’s technology hub, Bengaluru, which is home to a large number of multinational research and development centres and startup hubs, will soon be home to yet another mega innovation facility from Israel.

Israel will set up an India-Israeli Innovation Centre (IIIC), the first startup incubation facility in India. This facility by Israel will be only its fourth in the world after the US, the UK and China.

The facility, spread across 10,000 square feet, will be set up in the central business district and will be operated by startup hub MESH (Modiin Entrepreneurs’ Startup Hub).

Interacting with DH, MESH founder and CEO Moshe Porat said the startup incubator in Benglauru is a step towards achieving greater synergy between Indian and Israeli startup companies.

“We have many startup companies in India, especially in Bengaluru, involved in deep technology and they are looking at leveraging by aligning with global startups and incubation centres. We expect by starting MESH in Bengaluru, we can bring synergy in this endeavour,” he said.

Porat added that the India-Israeli Innovation Centre will give access to Israeli investors and frontier tech talent.

He said the incubation centre will be ready by mid-December and two more will be opened soon. “We are aligning our gameplan around government initiatives like Startup India and Digital India. Israel has also identified six cities for starting these kind of incubation centres,” he said.

Each incubation centre will have around Rs 2 crore investment. MESH is a startup hub started in 2014 and is located in Israeli municipality of Modiin.

Varadarajan Krish, who will head the incubation centres in India, said it will bring on board both Israeli and Indian educational institutions for collaboration and co-research.

“Israel’s Technion, Ben-Gurian and Tel Aviv Universities will join hands with IITs and IIIT in India. Also, it will team up with NITI Aayog and Atal Innovation Mission.

Federation of Indo-Israeli Chambers of Commerce vice chairman David Keynan said the innovation centre is one more move to connect the tech industry in both countries. “Porat is a long-time industry veteran in Israel, and his abilities will contribute to the centre’s success,” said Keynan.

Karnataka: Deputy CM inspects India's first modular ICU containers

News Network

July 19,2020

Bengaluru, Jul 19: The Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister C N Ashwathnarayan on Saturday inspected the country's first modular Intensive Care Unit (ICU) containers.

A notice from the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) said that the new mobile modular container ICUs, which will be used in the fight against the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, have been created by Rinac India Limited, known for setting up sanitised operation theatres and clean rooms in hospitals.

On a pilot basis, the Deputy CM, who is also in charge of setting up COVID-care centres, said that 10 modular container ICUs will be deployed at the KC General Hospital in Malleshwaram. Each of the containers will have five beds.

Deputy CM Ashwathnarayan also said, "These mobile ICUs donated by Rinac will be useful, particularly in times of a crisis like COVID 19 or any natural calamity."

"The entry of health officials will be through an airlock, and entry of patients will be through a different door. There will be two doors for patients and can be increased if need. ICUs are fitted with cameras to monitor online from a centralized monitoring station, thereby limiting the exposure of the health personnel," the CMO informed.

The CMO further added, "the advantages of this new system are that the prefabricated modules of 5 can be shifted to any location by trailers and it is easy to deploy multiple containers to create a common facility. They are easy to clean and the airtight functionality ensures that no moisture or heat ingression happens, hence, it is easy to air-condition or ventilate."

News Network

January 8,2020

Tumakuru, Jan 8: RSS leader Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat stoked controversy on Wednesday by stating that 'Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) is full of traitors'.

He was addressing the media after taking part in a pro-CAA rally organised by National Citizens Forum near the office of the deputy commissioner of the district here.

Bhat said, “JNU is full of traitors. Congress and communist parties have been generating anti-nationals there. But there is no need to close the university down. Modi government will handle it.”

“Nationalism should be infused among the students there through love and trust. They should be made to realize what the truth is,” he said.
