CES 2023: Ukraine introduces tech solutions in medical, recycling sectors

The past year has been difficult for startups everywhere, but running a company in Ukraine during the Russian invasion comes with a whole different set of challenges. Clinical psychologist Ivan Osadchyy brought his medical device, called Knopka, to this year's CES show in Las Vegas in hopes of getting it into US hospitals. His is one of a dozen Ukrainian startups backed by a government fund that are at CES this year to show their technology to the world. Two of our hospitals we operated before are ruined already and one is still occupied. So this is the biggest challenge, Osadchyy said. The second challenge is for production and our team because they are shelling our electricity system and people are hard to work without lights, without heating in their flats," he said. He came up with the device after spending a year with his own grandmother in the hospital and finding that he had to track down nurses when she needed something. The system works by notifying nurses when a patient

Connect with aspirational India through technology: Anurag Thakur to NRIs

Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur on Sunday appealed to Non-Resident Indians to connect with aspirational India through technology and use its strong human resources in the interest of the world. Speaking to reporters during the three-day Pravasi Bharatiya Diwas (PBD) convention, he said the world's perception of India changed soon after the Pokhran nuclear test in 1998. It is our request to the NRI community to connect with us through technology and work together in the interest of not only India but also of the entire world. You have resources and we have human resources, Thakur said. He said the government doesn't see the overseas Indian community in terms of sending money from abroad to the country but wants to partner with them. Instead of brain-drain, we talk about getting talent. We talk about connecting overseas Indians with aspirational India in the period of 'Amrit-Kaal' of Independence, he said. Thakur said the world is looking towards India with

India's tech spend becoming normalised with developing world: Satya Nadella

India could probably be among the top 10 countries in the world going by its GDP to tech-spend ratio, according to Microsoft's data, the company's Executive Chairman and CEO Satya Nadella said on Thursday. Responding to a question on Microsoft's future in helping the Indian economy, Nadella said "there is overall economy, economic growth and there is tech spend. That gap is bridging. India's tech spend as a percentage of GDP is now becoming normalised with the developing world." "India (In GDP to tech spend) is sort of definitely in the top ten in the world at least in our data. If that is the case, then the question is what is next. What is the output of that tech spend. Is it the same," he said while briefing the media after the Future Ready Tech Summit here. Delving into Microsoft's role in India's growing tech spend, he said "...if India has a GDP of X and a percentage of that is what is the productivity gain from that (tech spend), that then the world can benefit from...is the

The yojanas or the policy and the technology stack co-evolving, that's just like a virtuous cycle that is unlike anything I have seen and it's just tremendous," Nadella said. He said, "I absolutely think both of these are perhaps the greatest contributions that India can make to the world quite frankly. When I think about it, the idea that
