Mangoes are more than just some fruit. They are memory, heritage, and emotion woven into our lives.

This summer, we invite you to share your unique mango story! From childhood memories and family traditions to regional anecdotes and cultural connections, every story matters.

We invite you to contribute a short piece (300–500 words) that captures your unique mango story. Let it be nostalgic, reflective, funny, or even unexpected, just let it be yours.

Let’s come together to celebrate not just some fruit, but a collective cultural experience - one story at a time.

India-Nepal IN-SPAN Batch 2 is here — and the energy is electric.

Today, we welcomed the second cohort of Nepali entrepreneurs to IIT Madras as part of the India-Nepal Startup Partnership Network (IN-SPAN) — a fully-funded, 8-week innovation residency anchored by IITM Pravartak Technologies Foundation, in collaboration with India's Ministry of External Affairs.

The inauguration brought together a remarkable confluence of minds, with keynotes and addresses by:

🎤 Prof. Preeti Aghalayam — Global Engagement, IIT Madras
🎤 Mr. Balamurali Shankar — CKO, IITM Pravartak
🎤 Dr. M. J. Shankar Raman — CEO, IITM Pravartak
🎤 Hon. Naveen Srivastava — Ambassador of India to Nepal
🎤 Mr. Rajendra Mootha — Head, New Initiatives, IITM Pravartak
🎤 Prof. Gaurav Raina — Professor, IIT Madras
🎤 Prof. Mangala Sunder — Professor Emeritus, IIT Madras
🎤 Mr. Suman Sekar — First Officer, Commerce, Embassy of India to Nepal

The day was packed with intent:
→ Navigating the IIT Madras network — who to connect with and how
→ Making the most of the 8-week residency
→ Deep-dive into the startup journey
→ An AI for CEOs Workshop — because the future of entrepreneurship is AI-native

Batch 1 proved what's possible when two neighbouring innovation ecosystems come together. Batch 2 is ready to write its own chapter.

A step forward in bridging the digital divide.

The launch of the Rural Technology Center at Kadapakkam Government School marks a meaningful move towards empowering students with real-world digital skills and future-ready knowledge.

From accounting software to electronics, this initiative is designed to open doors to opportunities, careers, and higher education for rural talent.
Because potential shouldn’t depend on location—it should be nurtured everywhere.
