Nokia continues tie up for Emmy Awards
MUMBAI: Nokia is in its fifth year as corporate sponsor of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. The company was involved with this morning’s telecast of the 55th Primetime Emmy Awards and the surrounding festivities at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. In India, viewers can catch the repeat telecast on Zee English tonight at 8:30 pm.
Multiple Nokia observation cameras were used. A remote camera took and sent high-quality photos of the red carpet. Customers with a multimedia messaging service (MMS) phone and GSM service from either AT&T Wireless Services or T-Mobile, were able to send a request to the observation camera via text messaging to take a photo for them and send the photo directly to their mobile phone.
Once the photo is sent to them, customers can use the photo as wallpaper or a screensaver to further personalise their mobile phone. Professional photographers were supplied with the Nokia 3650 camera phone and positioned in key areas on the red carpet and backstage. The photographers snapped photos and sent them to http://www.nokiaredcarpetpics.com where customers can get a quick, behind-the-scenes look into the Emmys.
An official release informs that seeing a global trend of people using more than one mobile phone to match to their outfit or environment, Nokia is providing each presenter of the awards show a SIM card and three of the newest Nokia mobile phones. The SIM card, exclusive to the GSM service, is a small thumbnail size card that stores ones mobile phone number and a certain amount of one’s contact and calendar information.
It can easily be transferred into the back of GSM phones. This allows one to change a phone quickly and easily while keeping all important information at one’s fingertips. Provided in the much talked about Primetime Emmy Awards gift basket will be the Nokia 3650 camera phone, the Nokia 3300 music phone and the Nokia 6800 messaging phone, the release adds.

Manindra Mohan joins CoinDCX as SVP & head – data & analytics
Former Amazon and Unacademy analytics leader to scale crypto insights
MUMBAI: India’s crypto exchange CoinDCX has appointed Manindra Mohan as SVP and head of data and analytics, bringing on board a seasoned data strategist at a time when the country’s digital asset market is entering a decisive phase.
In his new role, he will steer enterprise-wide data science, analytics and business intelligence initiatives. His mandate spans product, growth, risk and customer experience, with a clear brief to embed data-led decision-making into the company’s core as it scales across India and beyond.
Announcing the move, Mohan said he was “thrilled” to join CoinDCX, calling the Indian crypto market pivotal and ripe with opportunity. He thanked co-founders Sumit Gupta and Neeraj Khandelwal, along with Mridul Gupta, for the opportunity to help shape what he described as the future of finance.
He noted that architecting data solutions for a 24 hour global asset class presents a formidable challenge. Yet, he added, the chance to redefine financial access and drive crypto adoption “across every pin code in India” makes the task compelling.
Mohan arrives with nearly two decades of experience across technology, media and digital platforms. Before CoinDCX, he served as head of data science, analytics and BI at Carousell Group. Prior to that, he was SVP and head of analytics at Unacademy, where he built and scaled the analytics and insights function supporting product, sales, marketing and finance teams.
His earlier stints include heading analytics for Amazon prime video in India, where he oversaw data across product, acquisition, engagement and content, as well as serving as senior manager data sciences and advanced analytics at VMware and senior manager marketing and digital analytics at Dell Technologies. He began his career as senior business analyst at Cognizant, working on large scale crm and analytics implementations for global clients.
Colleagues describe Mohan as a builder of teams as much as models. From managing global analytics rollouts to leading large cross functional units, he has consistently combined statistical rigour with commercial instinct.
At CoinDCX, that blend could prove timely. As crypto exchanges navigate regulation, volatility and rising user expectations, data is no longer a back office function. It is the compass. With Mohan at the helm of analytics, CoinDCX is betting that sharper insights will translate into deeper trust and broader adoption in a market that never sleeps.
