Eleven senior leaders from UK business schools spent their morning exploring how ideas move from concept to product and manufacturing in India. The engagement was part of the India-UK Business School Dialogue, with the delegation led by Lord Karan Bilimoria of Chelsea, CBE DL, and including leaders from Aston Business School, Leeds University Business School, Newcastle University Business School, Birmingham City University, and others. The group met T-Works leadership, interacted with startups exploring opportunities with the UK, and saw how T-Works supports entrepreneurs and companies through product development, engineering, manufacturing capabilities, and access to specialised infrastructure and expertise. Conversations covered faculty exchange, joint research, startup collaboration, and ways in which UK business schools can engage more closely with India’s growing innovation and manufacturing ecosystem. The next step is turning these conversations into opportunities for collaboration. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @AstonUniversity @KBS_Kent @LSBU @UniversityofLaw @uniofglos

There’s more than one way to learn. Sometimes, the best way is to make something yourself. At T-Works, hands-on workshops bring people into the world of making, from 3D printing and ceramics to woodworking and more. Whether you're a student exploring a new skill, a professional looking for hands-on learning, or simply someone curious about how things are made, there’s always something new to try. Pick a workshop. Get your hands on the tools. And make something of your own. piped.video/US0JIURwnYY @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella

11 September 2026 marked an important milestone for sustainable public sanitation in Hyderabad and for India. Hon’ble Ministers Sri Sridhar Babu Duddilla Garu and Sri Ponnam Prabhakar Garu inaugurated India’s first ReFlow Toilets at Lumbini Park - a solution designed to treat waste at source and reuse water at the same location, reducing dependence on fresh water. Its relocatable design allows it to be deployed wherever it is needed, creating a pathway for taking sustainable sanitation solutions to a wider scale. The occasion was also graced by members of the Gates Foundation team - Ms. Archna Vyas, Ms. Carol Welch, Ms. Sakshi Gudwani, and Mr. Vivek Pandey. A heartfelt congratulations to Mr. Abhishek Nath, Mr. Chakkaravarthi Rajamani, and the entire Reflow-LooCafe team for taking this innovative solution forward and working towards a more sustainable tomorrow. As part of the visit, Ms. Archna Vyas, Director, India Office, Gates Foundation, joined us at T-Works, where she explored our WASH and sustainability initiatives, including the Sanitation Sandbox, and gained an overview of the capabilities supporting technology development, engineering, and innovation at T-Works. T-Works and Reflow-LooCafe will continue to work together to advance and scale innovative solutions for public sanitation - made in India, for India and the world. A day that brought together global partnership, local innovation, and a shared focus on the future of sanitation. @Min_SridharBabu @Ponnam_INC @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @gatesfoundation @GatesIndia @loocafe_com

The pitch tells you what a startup wants to build. The prototype shows you what it's actually building. That's the idea behind Founder's Minute, a new video series featuring founders building, testing and refining their ideas at T-Works. Episode 1 features Imran Ahmed, Founder of SentinelX. While conventional CCTV is built to record, SentinelX is designed to act in the moment, with facial recognition in under 100 milliseconds, real-time alerts and automatic lockdown. The prototype in this episode was 3D printed at T-Works, with processing happening inside the camera itself. Zero cloud. Zero Wi-Fi dependency. New founder. New build. Every episode.

Great conversations happen when founders and investors come together. It was a pleasure hosting Hyderabad Angels at T-Works last Friday and giving them a closer look at some of the exciting startups building within our ecosystem. The visit created an opportunity for our founders to showcase their solutions, share their journeys, and engage in meaningful conversations around growth, market opportunities, investment, and scale. We’re grateful to the Hyderabad Angels team for spending time with our startups and sharing their perspectives. Such interactions go a long way in building stronger connections between founders, investors, and the wider innovation ecosystem. Looking forward to many more such conversations and collaborations ahead. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella

The real value of an innovation conversation is what you take back to your organisation. For Saurabh Surendra, Technology Leader, the GCC Innovation Roundtable at T-Works offered new ideas and practical tips on building a culture of innovation. He spoke about how T-Works is spreading that same mindset among the people and teams it works with, and how that gave him a clearer picture of what to try back home. It's a reminder that the best ideas from a roundtable rarely stay at the table. They show up later, in a team meeting, a new process, or a small change someone decides to try. Thank you, Saurabh, for being part of the roundtable and sharing your perspective. 🎥 Hear directly from Saurabh about his experience. piped.video/D-HYhPYhSKo @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella

Some of the most meaningful conversations about India's manufacturing future happen where people are building things with their hands. Ms. Alpana Dubey, IFS, Joint Secretary (South Europe), Ministry of External Affairs, along with Mr. Ganeshreddy Indireddy, visited T-Works and spent time exploring the prototyping and manufacturing infrastructure available to innovators. During the visit, Ms. Dubey particularly appreciated Chaiomi and the story of its founder, Phani. She was delighted to see how his family, Hasitha and their young son Ayaan, participate alongside him in building and creating. Ayaan's curiosity and enthusiasm for inventing things made the interaction especially memorable. The conversation also touched on India's growing manufacturing capabilities and the role platforms like T-Works can play in enabling international collaboration. We are thankful to Ms. Dubey and Mr. Ganeshreddy for spending time with our innovators and team, and for their interest in the people, ideas and products taking shape at T-Works. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @AlpanaDubeyIFS @Chaiomi_india

Maker education works best when students get to think, build and test ideas themselves. The bigger question is how to bring that experience to more classrooms. Last week, T-Works launched Mindset of a Maker at ZPHS Nandimedaram in Dharmaram, in partnership with DREAM START RISE Innovation Network. The programme introduces Class 8 and 9 students to design thinking, problem-solving, creative ideation, prototyping and practical learning, with a focus on the “Think, Create, Innovate” approach. The Peddapalli district administration has approved the programme across 40 government schools, reaching 4,165 students across 13 mandals. What started at one school is now set to reach classrooms across the district. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @Collector_PDPL

Sometimes, the most valuable response to a startup pitch isn't a number. It's someone recognising why the problem matters. At the CSR Roundtable, Raghu Duth Degala, Founder & CEO of Kaiteki Innovations, an incubated startup at T-Works, presented the startup's assistive technology solutions and its vision for a more accessible and inclusive society. What stood out to Raghu was the response from corporate leaders. Unlike a typical investor pitch, the conversations went beyond numbers. They recognised the story behind the startup and why its work matters. For a startup working on accessibility, that acknowledgement matters. So does having corporates willing to take the conversation forward and support solutions that can make spaces more accessible and useful. 🎥 Hear directly from Raghu about the experience. piped.video/GA_yFzs6M-k @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella

CSR, the first letter comes from community. For startups working on solutions for farmers and grassroots organisations, reaching the right communities is as important as building the solution itself. At the CSR Roundtable, Dr. Debarati Chakraborty, Founder of ASDC Naturophilia Agrotech, an incubated startup at T-Works, shared what it meant to present their work directly to CSR leaders. The conversations gave the team an opportunity to: • Share their work in the agrowaste-to-wealth and biosciences space • Hear perspectives from people with different backgrounds • Explore how their solutions could reach more grassroots organisations and communities For founders, these conversations can be an important step towards taking promising solutions to the communities that need them most.

For startups building for defence, the right conversations can open doors to real-world needs and applications. Lt Gen Anoop Shingal, AVSM, SM, Director General Artillery and Colonel Commandant, along with his team, spent time at T-Works exploring what startups in the ecosystem are building. Founders walked them through their technologies, products and prototypes. The conversations went beyond a showcase, into where these solutions could fit real defence requirements. Engagements like these bring startups closer to the users and operational needs they are building for, and closer to turning a prototype into something ready for field deployment. @SpokespersonMoD @TelanganaCMO @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @jogitanikella

A great idea is only the starting point. It has to survive contact with a real problem. That's what students at Kakinada Institute of Engineering and Technology (KIET) spent two days learning through building, testing and rebuilding with their own hands. On 25–26 August, T-Works brought its Mindset of a Maker program to KIET, as part of our ongoing collaboration to establish a Physical AI and Advanced Prototyping Lab on campus. Students identified real customer problems, used AI tools to validate and pressure-test ideas, built MVPs, and created prototypes using low-cost and scrap materials. This program is one part of a larger partnership covering student internships, faculty development, and joint initiatives in AI, IoT, Robotics, and Electronics. We appreciate KIET's continued support in bringing this program to their campus. More campuses, more makers, and more India-built products ahead. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @Kakinada Institute of Engineering and Technology

What happens when students move from learning about ideas to actually making them? Over two days, 300+ Class 9 and 10 students from Suchitra Academy took part in the Mindset of a Maker workshop at T-Works. They sketched ideas, built prototypes, and experienced rapid prototyping first-hand. Things didn’t always work the first time. So they fixed them, tried again, and got closer. That’s the real lesson. Not the finished prototype, but the confidence that comes from building it yourself. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @SuchitraAcad

Innovation takes shape when ideas have the right ecosystem to build, test, and move forward. We were glad to welcome M. Hari Menon, President, Global Growth & Opportunity, Gates Foundation, and Carol Welch, Director, Economic Opportunity, India Office, Gates Foundation, to T-Works for an engaging exchange on innovation, technology, and pathways to impact. The visit offered a glimpse into T-Works as a Centre of Innovation, Manufacturing Innovation Incubation Cell, India’s Largest Prototyping Centre, and Manufacturing Knowledge Partner, a place where you can walk in with an idea and walk out with a product ready for commercialisation. From WASH to automation, agri-tech to robotics, healthcare to defence, the visit showcased the breadth of innovation taking shape at T-Works, alongside a closer look at the work underway through our WASH vertical to address critical water, sanitation, and hygiene challenges. Conversations like these create space for shared learning, new perspectives, and stronger collaboration, bringing together technology, engineering, innovation, and partnerships to move solutions closer to real-world impact. When the right minds, capabilities, and purpose come together, innovation has a stronger pathway to scale. piped.video/DUEkYla52Uw @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @gatesfoundation

A nettle-fibre handbag takes four days to make by hand in Nagaland. The craftsmanship isn't the challenge. The support ecosystem is. Coffee producers process about 5 tonnes a month, 80% Arabica, all forest-grown, but post-harvest handling needs work. Food processing units across the state lack access to testing labs, cold storage, and packaging support. Handloom units outsource weaving to Assam because there is no local facility to do it. These conversations were part of the six-day engagement that shaped Nagaland's Innovation Space. T-Works is now working with local partners to identify how shared infrastructure can address these bottlenecks. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @industries_naga @MyGovNagaland

You learn a different way of teaching when you first experience what it means to make. At T-Works, educators from Soham Academy spent three days working through challenges, building prototypes, testing ideas and presenting their solutions. There was plenty of trial and error. That was the point. The experience gave trainers a chance to step out of the classroom and approach problems as makers. Curious, hands-on, willing to get it wrong before getting it right. Now, that mindset goes with them into every classroom. The students who learn from them will watch their teachers build first, and build differently because of it. @Min_SridharBabu @AnveshReddy_TG @DigitalMediaTG @TGRising2047 @CPRO_TGCM @jogitanikella @SohamAcademyNGO
