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.

Kamlesh Singh receives Haldi Ghati Award from MMCF
India Today Group editor honoured for three decades of journalism at Udaipur ceremony.
MUMBAI- Kamlesh Singh just turned a lifetime of sharp words into a shiny shield because when journalism wakes up a society, even the Maharana of Mewar wants to pin a medal on it.
The Maharana of Mewar Charitable Foundation (MMCF) conferred its prestigious Haldi Ghati Award on Kamlesh Singh, a senior editor at the India Today Group, during a ceremony in Udaipur on 15 March 2026. The national award, instituted in 1981-82, recognises “work of permanent value that initiates an awakening in society through the medium of journalism.”
Singh, who leads several editorial initiatives including Aaj Tak Radio, the Teen Taal community and The Lallantop, was presented the honour by Lakshyaraj Singh Mewar, Managing Trustee of MMCF. The citation highlighted his three decades of contributions to Indian media, innovations in digital journalism, mentoring young reporters, and his popular podcast persona “Tau” on Teen Taal, which fosters thoughtful public discourse.
The Haldi Ghati Award, named after the historic Battle of Haldighati symbolising valour and resilience, is one of four national awards given annually by MMCF. Past recipients include Tavleen Singh, Piyush Pandey and Raj Chengappa.
Other honourees this year included Padma Vibhushan Pt Hari Prasad Chaurasia, Vedamurti Devvrat Rekhe, Treeman of India Marimuthu Yoganathan, Vir Chakra Capt Rizwan Malik, and US-based researcher Molly Emma Aitken, who received the Colonel James Tod Award for contributions to understanding Mewar’s spirit and values.
In an era where headlines often shout louder than substance, the MMCF quietly reminded everyone that real journalism isn’t about noise, it’s about the quiet, persistent work that stirs society awake, one thoughtful story at a time.
