Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 16: There was a time when consumer technology begged for attention. Flashy screens, exaggerated promises, gadgets designed less for living rooms and more for keynote applause. CES 2026 didn’t bother with that energy. It walked in, surveyed the room, and started rearranging daily life without asking permission. This year’s most telling revelation wasn’t a single device—it was a mood shift. Innovation no longer wants to be admired. It wants to be useful, preferably without you noticing. And if that sounds comforting and mildly unsettling at the same time, congratulations—you understood CES 2026 perfectly. Robots climbed stairs…

These conversations and observations formed the foundation of an initiative rooted in empathy and…
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], January 16: Las Vegas has always thrived on spectacle. Neon promises. Artificial skies. Grand illusions carefully engineered to feel like destiny. So perhaps it’s fitting that CES 2026 didn’t arrive shouting about the future—it arrived quietly, rolling luggage through airports, scanning pulses at wrists, and answering questions before anyone bothered to ask them. This year’s show felt less like a tech carnival and more like a performance review. The message was blunt, almost unfashionably practical: artificial intelligence is done auditioning. It wants the job. Gone were the louder gimmicks of novelty screens and speculative prototypes that never…

Prateek Singh, Co-Founder & CEO, Brevistay. New Delhi [India], January 16: The travel and hospitality industry is undergoing one of its most significant shifts in decades. While overnight hotel stays have long been the default, modern travel behaviour is increasingly shaped by flexibility, immediacy, and value. Today’s traveller, whether a corporate professional, digital nomad, or short-haul commuter, no longer wants to pay for unused hours. They want accommodation that adapts to their schedules, not the other way around. This evolving mindset is giving rise to hour-based stays, also known as microstays, an alternative hospitality…
