Strontium Hosts Channel Conference
MUMBAI: Strontium Technology hosted its Channel Partner Conference on 25th October 2013 at The Oberoi Hotel, New Delhi. Strontium is a Singapore based Flash Storage and PC memory manufacturer. The conference was focused on changes in memory industry and how Strontium is turning market challenges into new opportunities.
“Following the merger of Elpida Memory into Micron Technology and the exit of Tier 2 Taiwan manufacturers, the memory chip industry is moving to Oligopoly which means lower volatility in future,” Vivian Singh, President and CEO, Strontium Technology, said at the event.
Strontium showcased its products and technologies during the conference besides presenting its roadmap for the year 2014.”The latest smart phones and tablets need high performing memory cards for capturing, storing and accessing HD videos, pictures, media files, apps and data. Strontium NITRO cards, with 60 to 85Mbps transfer speeds, are ideal solution,” Vivian added. “Strontium will continue to focus on selling retail products in emerging markets especially India through traditional channel, organized retailers and online stores.”
Strontium also participated in Gitex Technology show in Dubai from 20th to 24th October 2013 to expand product reach into Africa, CIS and GCC. “As part of our growth and expansion plans, we are going to focus on African markets in the next 2 years. We see tremendous potential in these markets.” Vivian added.

Uma Sudhir signs off from NDTV after 27 years
The executive editor shaped NDTV’s southern reportage for nearly three decades
NEW DELHI: Senior journalist Uma Sudhir has retired from NDTV, bringing to a close a 27-year association with the network.
Sudhir served as executive editor, heading NDTV’s south India editorial operations. Over nearly three decades, she emerged as one of the most recognisable faces of on-ground reporting from the region, with sustained coverage of politics, governance and social issues across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh.
At NDTV, Sudhir played a central role in strengthening regional journalism within national television news. Her reporting consistently connected local developments to the national conversation, ensuring stories from the field shaped policy debates beyond studio discussions. Known for her boots-on-the-ground approach, she came to represent a generation of reporters whose authority rested on fieldwork rather than prime-time punditry.
An award-winning journalist, Sudhir is a recipient of the Ramnath Goenka Excellence in Journalism Award and the Chameli Devi Jain Award. Her body of work has been widely recognised for its public-interest focus, spanning elections, governance, gender issues, rural distress, environmental reporting and social justice.
