Twin sisters Kavea & Ramya started KALANECA as two dreamers who fell in love with the art of handloom. Coming from Kakinada of Andhra Pradesh, they were passionate to bring the focus to a small coastal village in Andhra Pradesh called UPPADA, where handmade silk sarees told stories that have been woven for over 75 years. For years, that legacy quietly thrived, known only to a few connoisseurs.

In 2014, with one weaver and ten looms, they decided to bring those stories to the world. The small step became the beginning of Kalaneca – House of Handloom, born out of the belief that the grace of Uppada deserves a global stage.

What began as a passion project has today grown into a family of 135 weavers and 160 looms, yet the essence remains unchanged – every saree is handwoven, never mass-produced. Each piece carries with it the time, silk, and the soul of the artisans behind it. Through Kalaneca, they’ve taken Uppada’s art beyond India – to the USA, UAE, Australia, South Africa, and many more countries.

KALANECA gave birth to the concept of Lightweight Luxury. Keeping the grand designs of Indian heritage and the Uppada weaving, seamlessly integrated the beauty of the concept, making it one of the most comfortable yet desirable sarees.

Over the years, Kalaneca has found admirers among HNI clients, bureaucrats, and through leaders from across industries. Remarkable women such as Radhika Gupta, Lola Kutty, Seema Anand, Kirron Kher, and Shobita Dhulipala adorn Uppada silks.

Their signature innovation – The Queen’s Gambit Jamdani saree, took the tradition of Jamdani motifs of Uppada and gave them a modern reinterpretation, ensuring that the designs, techniques, and the looms themselves remain alive for generations to come.

Today, Uppada’s future looks brighter than ever. As Uppada’s name finds its place among the world’s most loved handlooms, it is Kalaneca that has played a meaningful part in that journey. The world is slowly falling in love with butter silks and the grace of light-weight luxury, and at the heart of that is Uppada, brought to life by Kalaneca. Because when something is handmade with heart, it doesn’t just stay local – it becomes eternal.

“At Shadow Minds, we believe the best learning happens when students work on real products that impact users, not just practice modules,” said a company spokesperson. “Our interns are not trainees — they’re contributors to business outcomes.”

A Growing Network of AI-Driven Industry Collaborations

Shadow Minds currently powers over 100+ live projects across industries. From AI-enabled hospital information systems to construction site analytics dashboards, e-learning platforms, business automation suites, and data-driven marketing tools, interns are involved in every stage — design, development, deployment, and maintenance.

This unique model doesn’t just teach skills — it creates real-world impact. Over 1,000 contributors have participated in 174+ projects, working alongside professionals and clients in India and abroad. Many projects under Shadow Minds have directly evolved into funded startup ideas or long-term corporate partnerships.

Malaysia Digital–Status company brings intelligent personalization and automation to preschools, backed by Beanstalkedu’s research-driven pedagogy.

Kuala Lumpur / Kolkata, 28/10/2025: Buzzapp Technologies Sdn Bhd, a Malaysia Digital–status company, today announced the launch of aKadmy, an AI-powered childcare and preschool management platform that helps teachers personalize learning, streamline classroom operations, and engage parents through real-time insights.

Built in Malaysia and recognized under Malaysia Digital (MD) Status, aKadmy applies machine learning, reinforcement learning, and semantic modeling to reduce teachers’ administrative workload by up to 40%, automating attendance, evaluations, progress reports, and individualized learning plans.

The platform builds on the deep pedagogical expertise of Beanstalkedu, a leading early childhood education group from India with over a decade of experience working with 100+ preschools and training institutions across India and Southeast Asia.

“AI in education shouldn’t feel futuristic — it should feel useful,” said Ankana Banerjea, Co-Founder and Chief Academic Officer of Beanstalkedu. “aKadmy makes personalization practical and immediate, giving educators the tools to focus on the child, not the paperwork.”

Transforming Educators’ Workflows with Smart Automation

aKadmy simplifies everyday school operations through intelligent automation:

  • Face-recognition attendance for accuracy and speed
  • AI evaluation of worksheets and classroom observations
  • Auto-generated progress reports with AI-recommended action plans
  • Custom lesson and quiz generation aligned with developmental milestones

By automating these tasks, schools can save valuable teacher time while improving consistency and visibility across classrooms.

Personalized Learning for Children

At the heart of aKadmy is its Conversational Buddy, an AI companion that interacts with children aged 3–6 through guided play and dialogue. The Buddy maps each child’s interests and learning pace, enabling personalized lesson paths that foster curiosity and cognitive growth.

Gamified missions reward children with stars and badges, while teachers receive real-time analytics to monitor engagement and progress.

Value for Schools and Parents

For schools, aKadmy provides a scalable SaaS solution that centralizes reporting, analytics, and branch-level management. For parents, it offers instant updates, photos, and digital progress dashboards — strengthening home–school communication and transparency.

“Switching to aKadmy was like upgrading our school’s operating system overnight,” said Michelle Kim, Owner of Little Sprouts Preschool, Alberta, Canada. “Our teachers save hours every day, and parents love the instant updates. It’s transformed how we teach, communicate, and grow.”

About aKadmy

aKadmy is developed by Buzzapp Technologies Sdn Bhd (Malaysia) in partnership with Beanstalkedu Services Pvt Ltd (India). Recognized under the Malaysia Digital (MD) initiative, the company benefits from government-backed incentives designed to advance AI innovation and digital education.

aKadmy’s mission is to create a connected ecosystem for preschools and early-years institutions — where every teacher has intelligent tools and every child follows a personalized learning path.

New Delhi [India], October 28: Robotic knee replacement surgery is widely considered the future–and increasingly, the present–of orthopaedics.

The technology represents a significant leap from traditional manual techniques, fundamentally transforming the key aspects of a Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA).

Dr Dibya Singha breakdown why it is viewed as the definitive future of the procedure:

1. Unprecedented Precision and Personalization

  • Millimeter Accuracy: The core advantage is the ability to execute the pre-operative plan with extreme precision. Robotic systems restrict the surgeon’s tools (like a saw blade or burr) to a defined area, ensuring bone cuts are performed to the sub-millimeter level, which is difficult to achieve manually.
  • Customized Planning: Before the procedure, a CT scan or X-ray data creates a detailed 3D virtual model of the patient’s unique knee anatomy. The surgeon uses this model to plan the optimal implant size, position, and alignment–a plan the robot helps enforce during surgery. This personalization leads to a better-fitting, more “natural feeling” knee.

2. Improved Patient Outcomes

  • Better Alignment: Optimal alignment is crucial for the longevity of the implant. Studies increasingly show that robotic assistance achieves more accurate and consistent alignment, which is expected to reduce wear and tear and extend the life of the replacement.
  • Less Tissue Trauma: By providing visual and haptic (force-feedback) guidance, the robot helps the surgeon minimize injury to the surrounding ligaments, tendons, and soft tissues. This can lead to:
  • Less blood loss.
  • Reduced post-operative pain.
  • Faster initial recovery and mobilization.

3. Integration with Advanced Technology

The future of robotic surgery isn’t just the arm itself; it’s the convergence with other technologies:

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI): Dr. Dibya Singha added AI is being integrated to analyze massive amounts of patient data, allowing the system to suggest the ideal, patient-specific implant position and balance before the surgeon even makes the first cut, further optimizing the plan.
  • Augmented Reality (AR): Newer systems are exploring AR and optical tracking, which could make the systems smaller, more agile, and potentially eliminate the need for pre-operative CT scans in some cases, streamlining the process.
  • Smart Implants: The development of “smart implants” that can wirelessly transmit data on the knee’s movement and function post-surgery will allow surgeons to get real-time, objective feedback on how well the robotic-assisted procedure is performing over the patient’s lifetime.

In essence, robotic assistance is transitioning from an advanced option to the standard of care because it elevates the surgeon’s capability, minimizes human error, and delivers a highly customized solution for one of the most common and complex orthopaedic procedures.
