When three innovators from Hyderabad left Osaka in awe
Of course, the entrepreneurial journey isn't without its challenges. But these hurdles teach resilience and discipline. My advice to fellow founders: validate your product early through mentors, conduct strong market research, and remember that entrepreneurship isn't for everyone — and that's perfectly okay. There's no shame in stepping back if things aren't working; knowing when to pivot or pause is also part of the journey.
Deeploop has had quite a journey, and Osaka is a milestone. What an experience this was! While the Japanese are known for their punctuality, Indians are recognised for delivering quality. At Deeploop, we aim to bring both to the global stage.

Why Learning Foreign Languages Is the New Career Power Move for Indian Youth
India PR Distribution New Delhi [India], August 1: In today's globalized world, the ability to communicate in more than one language is not just a skill--it's a career accelerator. As India's young workforce continues to compete on a global stage, learning foreign languages such as German, French, Japanese, and Spanish has become one of the smartest moves for career growth, overseas education, and international job opportunities. Foreign Languages Open Global Career Doors From multinational corporations to international universities, the demand for multilingual professionals is on the rise. Countries like Germany, Japan, and France are actively welcoming Indian students and skilled professionals. In many cases, proficiency in the native language is either a requirement or a strong advantage. For example, German companies operating in India often prefer candidates who can speak and understand German. Similarly, Japan offers a large number of technical internships and long-term employment options for Indians with Japanese language skills. The ability to communicate in the local language not only improves the quality of professional interactions but also makes integration into society smoother. Boosting Employability and Salary Potential Hiring managers consistently place language skills among the top desirable traits in global candidates. Bilingual and multilingual individuals are often offered better job roles and salary packages. In sectors like hospitality, aviation, international business, IT, and translation services, foreign language proficiency is a competitive edge. Students who pursue international education also benefit greatly. Whether applying to German public universities, enrolling in French business schools, or preparing for Japanese corporate internships, language skills strengthen a student's profile. Many institutes are now helping bridge this gap. The Indian Institute of Foreign Languages offers structured programs in German, French, Japanese, Spanish, and English--both online and offline--making it easier for students across India to gain certification and fluency. India's Youth are Catching On More Indian students and professionals are recognizing the value of foreign languages. Enrollments in language certification programs have increased significantly over the past few years, especially among students preparing for study abroad, jobs in Europe or Japan, and global business ventures. With the rise of digital learning, students from cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, Delhi, and even Tier 2 towns can now access high-quality language courses from the comfort of their homes. Institutes offering weekend and evening batches have made it easier for working professionals to learn without disrupting their daily routines. A Lifelong Skill With Endless Benefits Beyond careers, learning a foreign language also improves memory, cognitive flexibility, and cross-cultural understanding. It builds confidence, sharpens communication, and makes international travel more rewarding. In an era where remote jobs, overseas migration, and global networking are common, the ability to speak an additional language is no longer optional--it's essential. Where to Begin? For Indian youth looking to get started, it's important to choose the right course and certification. Most global employers and universities recognize international language tests such as Goethe-Zertifikat (German), JLPT (Japanese), DELF/DALF (French), and DELE (Spanish). Institutions like the Indian Institute of Foreign Languages not only prepare students for these exams but also provide career guidance, flexible timing, and access to native-speaking trainers and online learning tools. Conclusion In a world that's becoming more interconnected every day, foreign language skills are the bridge between Indian talent and global opportunity. Whether your goal is to study in Germany, work in Japan, or run a business with international clients, speaking a second language gives you a powerful head start. For India's young professionals and students, learning a foreign language may be the smartest career move they make this decade.

Factories and boilers need monitoring: MLAs to min
Porvorim: Lawmakers on Friday said that the directorate of factories and boilers failed to ensure monitoring of the functioning of factories in the state. Speaking in the Goa assembly, MLAs called for greater transparency and accountability regarding the 168 industrial accidents and fires which have claimed 23 lives since Jan 2020. Goa has 714 factories and 183 boilers. 'Each factory must be inspected at least three times a year. We are nowhere close to that. This laxity reflects in the accident statistics,' GFP MLA Vijai Sardesai said. The directorate claimed to have no record of the compensation paid to victims of the 168 accidents at factories. According to the data of the directorate, action was taken in only 20 industrial accidents, with eight companies fined between Rs 30,000 and Rs 2 lakh. RG MLA Viresh Borkar brought up the issue of the fire that occurred at the Berger paint factory at Pilerne. He said that no details were released about the accident, nor was accountability fixed. Minister for factories and boilers Nilkanth Halarnkar did not respond to these queries raised during the discussion on the demand for grants for the department. Halarnkar did speak about the work for the Goa College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences at Curti-Ponda, the new veterinary hospital at Mulgao, and a veterinary dispensary at Chicalim. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Japanese hair growth method Hair's Rich Learn More Undo 'A new veterinary hospital is in the process of construction at Mulgao, Bicholim, at the estimated cost of Rs 11 crore,' the minister said.

What began during the Covid-19 lockdown as a digital detour for bored young Indians has morphed into a full-fledged retail investing movement, fuelled by smartphone apps and financial influencers. Together, they've turned stock trading from a specialist's game into a mass-market phenomenon—one that's aspirational, but increasingly risky too.
