Young entrepreneurs are not only contributing to the deepening defence relationship between the US and India but also honing business skills that will foster economic growth and vitality in both countries, said US Consul General in Hyderabad Joel Reifman.
Addressing a group of entrepreneurs at a workshop on defence and aerospace on Friday, he said that it was interesting to see that nearly half the start-ups displayed were led by women and the vast majority are either based in or founded by someone from Telangana, Andhra Pradesh or Odisha. That’s an outstanding accomplishment.
Mr. Reifman was joined by IT principal secretary Jayesh Ranjan, William Blair of Lockheed Martin, S.G.K. Kishore of GMR, and Erik Azulay of the Alliance for Commercialisation and Innovation Research (ACIR).

On November 30, a team of officials from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Water Resources Department (WRD) and Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) conducted a joint inspection of a rainwater vent below the Chennai Bypass Road in Thiruneermalai. This marks the second time NHAI and WRD have carried out an inspection following a request being made by residents. They want NHAI to widen the vent located below the Bypass Road to facilitate rainwater drainage from ‘Nattukalvai’. The office bearers of the Federation of Welfare Associations accompanied the officials.
