<keyword id="4144532" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="DesiOPT">DesiOPT</keyword>, a startup from T-Hub has cracked a deal with Uber - US in order to provide STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) talent for a year. 
 On his recent visit to T-Hub, Uber CEO <keyword id="4144531" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="travis-kalanick-naren">Travis Kalanick Naren</keyword> Y, founder of DesiOPT, while addressing a session named ‘If I were your CEO’. 
 During the session Naren asked him about the scope of Asian <keyword id="4144533" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="STEM-talent">STEM talent</keyword> in USA, post which Uber gave DesiOPT a one year contract to provide STEM talent. 
 <keyword id="3662717" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Shweta-Rajpal-Kohli">Shweta Rajpal Kohli</keyword>, Public Policy Head - Uber India, said, "We are happy to be contributing to promoting and supporting innovative ideas out of spirited start-ups in India like DesiOPT. Telangana is one of the most progressive states and has set up a culture of ‘regulatory incubation’ — allowing new ideas and business models to thrive. The vision behind setting up T-Hub is a testament to their commitment. Today more and more people around the world want to build something themselves. Through initiatives like Uber EXCHANGE, our mentorship program for Indian startups, we hope to encourage more people to come up with the next big idea and spur entrepreneurship." 
 <keyword id="210411" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Jay-Krishnan">Jay Krishnan</keyword>, CEO - T-Hub added, “DesiOPT has been selected by Uber to boost their source of STEM talent. At T-Hub, our model has always been to help innovative startups scale, and our global networking helps these companies in scaling their businesses and making them efficient to deliver at a global level. What is more significant is the fact that this deal from Uber came in a matter of mere 3 minutes. Statistically speaking, US has over 1 million international students travelling for higher education from around the globe every year. Last year from India alone there were around some 2, 06,000 students who ventured to the states which itself shows the kind of gifted pool our country actually is.” 
 
The challenge however lies in getting the talent channelized in the right direction. 
 
Naren Y, founder of DesiOPT, opines, “Today we have surplus of raw talent from India in US that is waiting to be explored. DesiOPT itself provides services to over 2500 companies however we are not able to reach out to the bigger companies who are in need of STEM talent in US. The association with Uber was indeed a much needed break that we were looking for. And being a part of T-Hub has really helped us in getting there. ”

This T-Hub incubated startup has just signed a contract with Uber

Exactly a year after inauguration, <keyword id="6354480" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="T-hub">T-Hub</keyword>, India’s largest <keyword id="1428402" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Startup-incubator">startup incubator</keyword> which has waged a startup revolution in Hyderabad is now gearing up to roll out the second phase of its facility. Spread across 3,50,000 square feet, the new wing will be made available to entrepreneurs by mid-2018. 
 The size of the new facility will make it not only India’s but infact the world’s largest incubator, making it at par with Anne Higaldo’s ambitious ‘<keyword id="3847693" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="halle-freyssinet">Halle Freyssinet</keyword>’ in Paris, also spread over 3,50,000 square feet. 
 “The second phase of T-Hub's catalyst building, when opened in 2018, will be the largest such facility in the world. There are many international entrepreneurs, including a few from Israel, who are interested in joining the startup ecosystem in Hyderabad,” revealed <keyword id="210411" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Jay-Krishnan">Jay Krishnan</keyword>, CEO of T-Hub. 
 
T-Hub, which operates in a public-private partnership with the government of Telangana and three academic institutions (IIIT-H, ISB and NALSAR) recived an investment of Rs 180 crores for the new facility. Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao is reportedly going to lay the foundation of the building. 
 Additionally, Krishnan also stated that T-Hub is in the process of creating a technology-driven ‘Sandbox’ which will act as a support system and include a high-end <keyword id="6537818" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="supercomputer">supercomputer</keyword> for <keyword id="6362513" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="100" keywordseo="Startups">startups</keyword> which do not have proper access to resources and infrastructure. 
“This is the first time a supercomputer is being made exclusively for entrepreneurs,” he added. 
 
 
 
The super-computer is likely to be made available to startups and entrepreneurs by March next year. The estimated cost of building the super-computer would range between Rs 5 crores and Rs 25 crores. 
 
From now on, T-Hub will also start following a ‘cluster-based approach’ when it comes to managing deal flows for the startups that work out of their Gachibowli facility. Startups will now be segregated startups based on their stages (Idea, Early, Seed) and the verticals they are working on. There will also be a review every six-months to ascertain their progress.

As many as 160 million women may need to transition to other professions by 2030, according to a new report by the <a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/gender-equality/the-future-of-women-at-work-transitions-in-the-age-of-automation">McKinsey Global Institute</a>. Women will likely need to transition into higher-skilled roles, as McKinsey predicts only jobs requiring a college degree will experience a net growth in demand. McKinsey's <a href="https://medium.com/thrive-global/the-robots-are-coming-for-men-4f00037e9e62">report</a> builds on prior research that found automation will threaten male-dominated industries, like trucking or manufacturing. Traditional "women's work," or jobs with greater social intelligence like social work and nursing, are harder to automate. McKinsey finds on the whole that men face similar threats of displacement: 21% of men on average could lose their jobs to automation, compared to 20% of women. Yet structural barriers may hold women back from adapting to the new workforce. Women have less time to reskill or search for different jobs since they spend more time on childcare, the report stated. "Men and women need to be skilled, mobile, and tech-savvy in the automation age, but women face long-established barriers on all three, which makes it harder to make the necessary transitions," Mekala Krishnan, senior fellow at MGI and a report co-author, said in a release. The report looked into the impacts on six developed nations and four developing economies, which together account for half the world's population and 60% of the global GDP. While automation in developing countries like India and Mexico could result in a net increase in jobs, women (who make up the bulk of low-paying workers) must have better access to education to transition <keyword id="6354910" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="careers">careers</keyword>.In countries like the US and Canada, job growth will likely be more concentrated to two sectors: healthcare and technical services. Women are largely overrepresented in the healthcare sector, especially in jobs like <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/registered-nurses-worst-part-being-nurse-jobs-2019-5">nursing</a>. In technical services, however, women might fall behind if they do not acquire more technical skills. The report calls for greater government and industry investment into supporting skills-building efforts and increasing gender balance in technology.Industry leaders have called already for greater investment in skills retraining to prepare for greater automation. Retraining workers could <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/retraining-workers-could-be-a-new-frontier-for-the-future-of-work-2019-4">save companies billions of dollars in restructuring</a>, and some firms, such as consultancy <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/training-employees-on-new-skills-and-technology-what-accenture-learned-2019-1">Accenture</a>, have already begun implementing programs.Vocational training and apprenticeship programs could also aid in job transitions once automation hits. Yet current government investment into skills retraining is abysmal: federal investment in skills training has been cut nearly in half over the last two decades, according to the <a href="https://www.nationalskillscoalition.org/resources/publications/file/Funding-Cuts-Fact-Sheet-March2019.pdf">National Skills Coalition</a>. <div class="margin-top"> <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/beyonce-jay-z-net-worth-music-first-billionaire-couple-money-billion-2019-4">Jay-Z is hip-hop's first billionaire.

“IBM Smartcamps are designed and aimed at providing opportunities for startups to get mentorship and work with IBM and industry experts to scale up their business quickly, particularly by taking advantage of cognitive and cloud-based technologies. The focus of IBM Smartcamp for Health Tech initiative was to provide the startups in healthcare an opportunity to showcase their products and get inputs first-hand from various stakeholders,” said Seema Kumar, Country Manager, Ecosystem Development, IBM India &amp; SA. “At IBM, we are committed to empowering the next generation of start-ups that develop solutions to solve the most complex problems in the country.

Meanwhile, DailyRounds is a mobile app for doctors, medical schools, physician, and surgeon societies to publish clinical cases, articles, and images. The platform allows doctors to share insights about medical cases. It claims to provide a verified diagnosis within 24 hours of submission. It also functions as a medical case library for doctors to refer and discuss their cases. 
 
The winners were chosen after multiple levels of screenings and panel rounds by the jury members. They were judged on various parameters like innovative solution, features &amp; demos, ability to scale, team behind the product, and the market size they are addressing with their solution. 
 
On the occasion, Jay Krishnan, CEO of T-Hub said, “We are excited to partner with Industry leaders such as IBM and Manipal Hospitals to facilitate events like the Heath Tech Smartcamp Challenge 2016. Such events will benefit startups in the ecosystem working in the area of healthcare innovation. Our mission overall is to lead sector specific collaboration between cutting edge startups and corporates looking for innovations in their domains.” 
 
The winners will now be given access to IBM Cloud credits and can leverage the best of IBM technologies around Cognitive, Cloud, Analytics, Mobility, IoT and Infrastructure as a service. All participants will also get an opportunity to learn from IBM’s senior leadership and industry experts. 
 
Next in line in the Smartcamp series is the Smartcamp for Smart City to be organized in New Delhi. IBM Global Entrepreneur program is accepting applications from B2B and B2C Startups less than 5 years having innovations around areas like Energy &amp; Utility, Transportation, Sanitation, Water, Citizen Management, Safety and Surveillance. Agritech startups are also welcome. The link for applying is ibmgepindia.com/smartcity.
