EMotorad to represent India in Eurobike – world’s biggest bike and Ecomobility expo
Mumbai: EMotorad, India’s leading electric cycle manufacturer, proudly announces that its manufacturing arm, DYNEM, will represent India at Eurobike, the world’s largest bike and ecomobility expo. This prestigious event, held from 3 to 7 July 2024, in Frankfurt, Germany, will witness the participation of top e-bike companies from around the globe.
EMotorad CEO & co-founder Kunal Gupta mentioned, “Eurobike is the biggest platform to showcase the cutting-edge technology and innovation in our drivetrain systems. This event not only validates our efforts but also helps us build a robust order book for our upcoming technologies. My experience attending Eurobike and other global expos convinces me that the demand for Made in India products will soar, provided we consistently deliver on quality.”
EMotorad submitted Amigo’s technology, which qualified for the final round among the best brands in the world. They are currently among the top finalists among thousands of applicants, and it’s a great milestone for DYNEM to be a contender among the biggest manufacturing giants in the world.
MD and corporate strategist Rajib Gangopadhyay added, “Amongst all the expos and exhibitions I’ve attended across the world for bicycles and e-bikes, nothing comes close to Eurobike. My vision with DYNEM is to inspire more companies from India to win on a global stage.
Last year after visiting Eurobike, our sales grew massively in exports, and a big chunk of revenue came from the tie-ups we got from Eurobike. This year, we compete with made-in-India products and highlight our USPs and made-in-India technologies. The topmost layer of our e-bikes transcribes into an app called Amigo. Our technology moat surpasses competitors in terms of efficiency, adaptability, and price point.”

Havas reports solid Q1 2026 with 2.5 per cent organic net revenue growth
Advertising group maintains positive momentum and confirms full-year guidance.
MUMBAI: Havas has started 2026 on a strong note proving that even in uncertain times, its converged model continues to deliver. The global advertising and communications group reported net revenue of €638 million for the first quarter of 2026, representing organic growth of +2.5 per cent compared to the same period last year. This performance was driven particularly by a robust +7.4 per cent organic growth in the United States.
Total revenue for the quarter reached €667 million, with organic growth of +2.8 per cent. Recent acquisitions contributed a positive scope impact of +1.7 per cent, while foreign exchange movements had a negative impact of -5.8 per cent, mainly due to the US dollar and British pound.
Europe, which accounts for 50 per cent of net revenue, delivered +1.1 per cent organic growth, supported by a good performance in France. North America (36 per cent of net revenue) led the way with +7.4 per cent growth, thanks to strong contributions from both Havas Creative and Havas Media. APAC & Africa (8 per cent) saw a decline of -6.2 per cent, while Latin America (6 per cent) remained nearly stable at -0.6 per cent.
Havas chairman and CEO Yannick Bolloré said, “Havas has started 2026 on a solid footing, continuing its momentum and delivering organic growth in net revenue of +2.5 per cent. This performance, in line with our full-year 2026 guidance, was driven in particular by continued strength in the US.”
The group also continued its bolt-on acquisition strategy, acquiring majority stakes in four agencies during the quarter: Acento Public Affairs (Spain), Ctrl Digital (Sweden), Styleheads (Germany), and Eyesight (France).
Havas maintained its strong creative reputation, ranking as a top holding company in the WARC Creative 100 for the sixth consecutive year, with three agencies BETC, Havas Paris, and Havas India placing in the Top 50.
Looking ahead, Havas confirmed its 2026 guidance: organic net revenue growth between +2.0 per cent and +3.0 per cent, adjusted EBIT margin between 13.2 per cent and 13.5 per cent, and a dividend payout ratio of around 40 per cent. The group also reiterated its medium-term targets for 2028.
Despite ongoing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, Havas enters the rest of the year with solid fundamentals and confidence in its ability to deliver sustainable, profitable growth.
In a challenging environment, Havas is proving that its integrated, client-centric model remains resilient delivering steady growth while continuing to invest in creativity and innovation. The first quarter results suggest the group is well-positioned to navigate the year ahead with confidence.
