ver since the invention of the incandescent light
Ebulb by the quintessential American inventor,
Thoman Edison, the use of lights steadily became
common and popular in various sectors. Lights are an
integral part of our residential and commercial sectors
today.
A moment without light causes a lot of disturbance and
outrages in work affecting the people directly. Though used
generally for initial five hours of the evening, the usage of
lights has expanded in various ways and time slots. Proper
and consistent lighting promotes smooth and easy working
with all the objects identified easily.
Well-lit up areas exude energy and vibrancy that helps to
build up the mood for faster and efficient working. Bringing
in better clarity through visibility, it aids in ensuring safety
as well.
With the developments of lighting solutions, several
applications have enabled progress in the fields of
agriculture where specific lighting has contributed to the
growth of plants and microorganisms. Advancements in the
medical science have led to the growth of premature babies
through the specific treatments of phototherapy. Multiple
industrial applications have the applications of UV lights
that are used in the drying of printing inks, textile industry,
surface coating and paint industry.
The role and the expanse of lighting solutions are deep
rooted and have facilitated the developments in several
sectors. Modern consultants and expert companies in
lighting solutions offer specific solutions based on the
needs, area to be covered and the purpose and functioning

ince evolutionary electricity ignited the filament of
human imagination, human minds have been
inflamed with light to control it inside incandescent
bulbs, replacing ages of darkness with a brighter future
mounted under the roof. The shimmering magnificence of
this amplifying brightness has been illuminating our path to
the betterment of humanity and forwarding its mission of
growth, progress, development, and prosperity.
Although the saga of the Indian lighting industry began in
the late nineteenth century, BEPS Group launched the
post-independence era of Indian decorative lighting
manufacturing through RK Lite Brand. It became the
pioneer of light manufacturers, distributing and supplying
lighting fixtures all over the country.
BEPS (Bombay Electrical Projects and Supplies India
Pvt Ltd) is a well-established and renowned lighting
industry company founded in 1961 by the Chhabria
brothers, Atmaram and Amar.
Over the years, the BEPS group has transformed from a
small decorative light manufacturing company to a leading
solution provider in the industry. With a team of 90
people, of which 40 are experts in Sales, Design and
Technical Support, BEPS caters to various prestigious
clients across hospitality, real estate, commercial spaces,
corporate offices, and heritage sites.
The BEPS Inception Saga by the Founders- Atmaram
Chhabria and Amar Chhabria
The Chhabria brothers, born in Shikarpur, Sindh,
dreamed of starting his own business when he was just 19
years old. They started their first business by building light
switches in their Mumbai living room.
The brothers quickly made the bold decision to jump right
into the production and distribution of lighting in 1959 with
a capital of ₹1000! And in 1961, they founded their first
company, RKLITE (Rajkamal Trading Corporation) after
two years of rigour and labour across the length and breadth
of India and learning and unlearning of trade intricacies.
This light manufacturing and distribution company started
out with operations in Pan India and soon after they began
exporting to the Middle Eastern countries. They even
received their first award for best exporter from none
other than the Government of India!
Mr Atmaram Chhabria Quotes, “In 1960s, we had faced
various issues of the quality of glass and its production.”
While having a homely discussion over whisky, there
struck an Idea to use the Glass from JONNY WALKER
Whisky bottle cutting off the neck of the bottle and utilizing
the whole glass after pretreatment.
“We also had a tradition of naming our fixtures in the name
of Bollywood and Hollywood movie names like example –
Moonlander – for a dome shape table lamp,” Mr Atmaram
says, adding, “We used to churn out new designs and
techniques all the time. And introduced a technique called
Diamond Cutting where in, we used to analyze aluminium
pipes and cut off small portion of it to show the shining
aluminum portion. This was a huge hit in India and Middle
East Countries. It led us to get an Export Award from the
Government.”
Today, the company is driven by second-generation
coherent leaders—Narendra Chhabria and Vijay
Chhabria—setting the footprints of success—scaling its
growth sky-high under the guidance of Atmaram Chhabria,
Chairman and an industry veteran with over 50 years of
experience and continues…

Illuminating the Future Echelons
The coherent leaders share, “BEPS did facade lighting for
nine temples in Kanchipuram, which was a government
tender wherein we had to present the lighting concept,
detailed engineering, supply installation, testing
programming and handover. The lighting was done on some
temples, which are more than 1000 – 2000 years old. We
had to take special care to not damage old structures and
make special arrangements for fixing lights on the stand-
alone heavy concrete block so that no holes have been
made.”
The concept of lighting was based on the chakras of the
human body, which was translated to the colours on the
temple. Each chakra denotes a different colour. Special
GOBOs were created like OM and Trishula while designing
for projecting on the façade.
The Leela Hotel in Gandhinagar is a flagship BEPS project.
The project testified to our expertise in lighting solutions

The lighting industry has come a long way since the
innovation of the incandescent light bulb in the 19th
century. Today, the industry is experiencing
significant changes and innovations driven by technological
advancements, environmental concerns and changing
consumer preferences.
With new technologies and expansions emerging all the
time - These developments have presented numerous
opportunities for businesses looking to enter or expand
within the industry. From energy-efficient LED lighting to
smart lighting solutions and Li-Fi technology, there is a
wide range of opportunities available for businesses that are
willing to innovate and adapt.
In this article, we will postulate an overview of the
developments in the lighting industry and the opportunities
that exist for businesses looking to capitalize on these
trends. We will explore the key areas where businesses can
benefit and for a better understanding of the opportunities
that exist in the lighting industry and how one can position
themselves to benefit from these trends.
Let’s delve into the highlights of the subject:
LED Technology
One of the most substantial developments in the lighting
industry has been the rise of LED (light-emitting diode)
technology. LED lights are energy-efficient, long-lasting,

and eco-friendly, making them an attractive alternative to
traditional lighting sources such as incandescent and
fluorescent bulbs. LED lights are also highly versatile,
allowing them to be used in an eclectic range of
applications, including residential, commercial, and
industrial lighting, as well as automotive and outdoor
lighting.
The adoption of LED technology is expected to continue
growing as more consumers and businesses recognize the
benefits of energy-efficient lighting. According to a
proclamation by Grand View Research, the global LED
lighting market is expected to reach $108.9 billion by 2025,
driven by increasing demand for smart lighting solutions,
government initiatives to reduce carbon emissions, and
growing awareness of the benefits of LED technology.
Smart Lighting
Smart lighting is another development that is transforming
the lighting industry. Smart lighting refers to lighting
systems that are connected to the internet and can be
controlled remotely via a mobile app, voice commands, or
sensors. Smart lighting systems are able to adjust the
brightness and color temperature of lights, turn them on and
off, and even create different lighting scenes depending on
the user’s preferences.
The market for smart lighting is expected to grow rapidly,
driven by expanding demand for energy-efficient and
convenient lighting solutions. According to a report by
MarketsandMarkets, the global smart lighting market is
expected to reach $27.2 billion by 2023, with a composite
annual growth rate of 21.5% from 2018 to 2023. The
growth of the smart lighting market is also expected to be
determined by the increasing adoption of smart homes and
the Internet of Things (IoT) technology.
Li-Fi Technology
Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) is a new technology that uses light
waves to transmit data, providing an alternative to
traditional Wi-Fi technology. Li-Fi technology uses LED
lights to transmit data at high speeds, making it an attractive
option for applications such as wireless communication,
indoor positioning, and smart city infrastructure.
The adoption of Li-Fi technology is still in its early stages,
but it has the potential to revolutionize the way we use
wireless technology. According to a report by Grand View
Research, the global Li-Fi market is expected to reach
$9.22 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate
of 70.5% from 2020 to 2027. The growth of the Li-Fi
market is expected to be driven by the increasing demand
for high-speed and secure wireless communication,
particularly in applications where traditional Wi-Fi
technology is not feasible.
Environmental Concerns
Environmental concerns are also driving developments in
the lighting industry. With increasing awareness of the
impact of climate change and the need to decrease carbon
emissions, there is a growing demand for eco-friendly
lighting solutions. LED lights are an attractive option for
eco-conscious consumers and businesses because they
consume less energy and have an extended lifespan than
traditional lighting sources.
In addition to LED technology, there are other eco-friendly
lighting solutions being developed, such as solar-powered
lights and bioluminescent lighting. Solar-powered lights are
powered by solar panels and do not require energy from the
grid, making them an attractive option for outdoor lighting
applications. Bioluminescent lighting is a new technology
that uses genetically engineered bacteria to create light,
providing an eco-friendly alternative to traditional lighting
sources.
To Conclude,
The developments in the lighting industry present numerous
opportunities for businesses that are willing to innovate and
adapt to changing consumer inclinations and technological
advancements. LED technology, smart lighting, Li-Fi
technology, sustainable lighting solutions, industrial
lighting, and outdoor lighting are just some of the areas
where businesses can tap into the growing demand for
energy-efficient, convenient, and eco-friendly lighting
solutions. With the global lighting market expected to
continue growing in the coming years, businesses that
position themselves to benefit from these trends can expect
to see significant growth and success in the future.

The Beginning of a Radiant Journey
Abby Lighting has been designing and manufacturing
lighting systems using LED technology since 2000 and is a
leading manufacturer of LED lighting fixtures in India.
The company was founded on the principles of tradition
and high-quality craftsmanship. With over 30 years of
experience in the lighting industry, it understands the
dedication required to earn the business and loyalty of its
clients. The three pillars upon which its business has been
built and satisfies its customers’ needs are research,
development, and innovation.
Abby’s expertise is in providing tailored lighting solutions
for industries across sectors from its 85,000-square-foot
design and manufacturing facility. Everything is managed
systematically under one roof, from design to engineering
and prototyping to production, packaging, and stocking.
It’s purpose-built factory (SMT lines, pressure die casting,
spinning, profile cutting, powder coating, and various other
CNC operations like bending, cutting, and turning) is
perfectly synchronized with a motivated and trained
workforce.
The organization is proud to be an authentic example of
‘Made in India,’ and this is its unique selling point. Abby
Lighting has developed complete control over the entire
production process through 100% in-house manufacturing,
resulting in ON-TIME deliveries with near-zero defects.
Electrifying Leadership
Suresh and Sanjay have been at the helm of Abby Lighting
for over three decades, steering the company to become a
trendsetter in lighting designs for residential, commercial,
and professional environments.
Both brothers are engineers who have established a
reputation as architectural lighting manufacturers. The
diverse experiences each has brought to the company are
reflected in cutting-edge technical design, raw material
analysis and selection, a fully in-house mechanical and
electronic production cycle, and thorough product testing.
A family-run business means attention to detail, exceptional
service levels, and strong personal contact, which has
helped Abby Lighting become a national leader.
ighting has played a critical role in assisting
Lhumanity in pursuing its dreams. Since Thomas
Edison invented the first incandescent light bulb in
1879, lighting solutions advancements have remained
augmenting. Lighting has become an essential component
of modern personal and professional lives.
The expansion of the commercial, industrial, and residential
sectors has increased demand for various types and
specifications of lighting. This resulted in the growth of the
lighting industry, which includes manufacturers of illumi-
nants, fixtures, and accessories, as well as the related
trading and service sectors. The influx of several local and
imported products, a diverse range of solutions, and
concerns about durability, power consumption, efficiency,
and safety have made it difficult for modern businesses to
choose the best lighting solutions.
There is a need for dependable, safe, and energy-efficient
solution providers who not only support power require-
ments but also add value to the property’s aesthetics. Abby
Lighting & Switchgear Ltd, based in Mumbai, provides
complete lighting solutions through its high-quality
products, impeccable services, and complete project-based
turnkey solutions tailored to business organizations’ specific
needs.
Furthermore, Abby Lighting offers full maintenance,
upgrade, and other specialized solutions, making it a one-
of-a-kind lighting specialist organization. The organization
is led by its visionary Managing Directors, Sanjay Bajaj
and the Co-founders, who have guided the
Suresh Bajaj,
organization through difficult times to the pinnacle of
success it is today.
Igniting the Sparkle of Success

With the next generation , joining
Ms Rachna Bajaj Joshi
the company, the company’s future is assured, bringing
additional dynamism and ambition to the team.
The Tech-Know-Logical Connection
Lighting consumes nearly 20% of all electricity consumed
worldwide. Approximately 80% of that lighting is con-
sumed in offices, industries, and streets, with the remainder
consumed in residences. Abby’s products and solutions are
designed to meet the needs of organizations, assist them in
saving energy costs, and protect them from electrical
maintenance headaches.
AI has emerged as a disruptive force in the lighting
industry, demonstrating its ability to alter existing processes
drastically. A lighting system powered by AI can optimize
and tune light parameters based on the impact on user
experience and well-being. Artificial intelligence can
combine lighting control with automation to save money,
reduce energy consumption and waste, and improve service
quality and customer satisfaction. Minimizing a light’s
energy output also reduces greenhouse gas emissions,
allowing for a more sustainable environment.
Abby Lighting’s research teams are constantly working to
incorporate the latest lighting technologies into its products
because the company believes this is the future of lighting
experiences. The company has formed alliances with global
and local players across the smart and connected lighting
spectrum.
Lighting Up the Developments
Despite the fact that the LED market is expanding rapidly,
some factors influence the industry. High manufacturing
costs, lack of awareness, and low-quality products produced
illegally by fly-by-night operators are among the key
challenges.
Abby Lighting has a strong manufacturing background and
constantly implements new technologies and designs to
reduce production costs. At the Abby Lighting studio,
which also serves as an experience center, smart luminaires
with various scene settings, daylight harvesting, lights that
adapt to circadian rhythms, and so on, are demonstrated
thus educating its clients on LED adoption which results in
significant energy savings and a healthier way of life.
Mindful Reflections
Sanjay advises young entrepreneurs and professionals
entering the lighting industry to develop a patient approach
by learning more about the client, their property, and the
area to be illuminated. He says, “The more information you
gather from the client about their requirements, the clearer
would be the idea that can enable you and your team to
offer the right solutions.” While Suresh adds, “Always
consider the customer’s needs and offer solutions that will
meet their needs while adding value to their business.”
Rachna, Director of Sales, adds, “Our clients'
the
happiness means everything to us.” She furthers that
customers today are very demanding and know exactly
what they want. “So, it's imperative that we are always on
top of our game, be it the products, the technology, and the
services we provide!”
Reflecting on an Enlightened Future
Abby Lighting’s core strength is its product design and
100% in-house manufacturing, distinguishing the brand and
its products. Its focus in the near future will be on the smart
lighting segment via advanced wireless solutions that are
showing great promise.
“We have all seen how the latest trends in automation are
affecting the lighting industry,” Sanjay said. “Automation,
previously only used in commercial/industrial settings, is
now becoming popular in smart homes. Alexa and Google
Home add a fun element and elevate the smart home
concept,” added Suresh.
Crediting the significant benefits of smart lighting, he
expects it to become the norm in residential and commer-
cial lighting due to the important benefits it provides.

manufacturing background, is
continuously deploying new
technologies and designs to lower
production costs.

An enlightened mind lights up space by
incorporating ideas and imagination into the design
elements. Lighting is not only about illuminating a
place or an area, but it is deeply ingrained in the very
character of that place.
Creatively crafted lighting complements an interior or
exterior space's aesthetics, ambience, and very essence by
amplifying brightness into all the nooks and corners and
exemplifying the brilliance of the panoramas thus far
hidden in the veil of darkness.
Furthermore, in the technologically advancing era, the
lighting of every area should reflect the innate purpose of
the structure it stands for. This technology must be at the
core of all the enlightenment glowing through the
spacetime of the building's personalities.
Redefining the modern era's lighting scope is DALIS
LIGHTING, an Artistically Architectonical Lighting brand
of DIYAARCHITECTURAL SOLUTIONS.
"DALIS LIGHTING" was founded in 2017 by Mahesh
Surasgar, the Co-founder, as a design and manufacturing
company for Led lighting needs. He shares, "We have
served a diverse range of clients from the retail segment.”
Mahesh is an IIM- Lucknow Alumni who pursued
master's in Advance Strategic Management and has
worked for some of the Best Lighting Companies based
out of Europe and Japan. His passion towards
architectural Lighting resulted in "DALIS LIGHTING®”
Over the years, the company added Hospitality
Experiences, Museum and Experience Centres, Corporate
Workspaces, High-end Retail Spaces, Developer Spaces
and Residential Spaces to its repertoire.

ighting has played a significant role in our daily life
Lby illuminating our surroundings and helping us
perform our tasks efficiently. However, the lighting
industry has undergone significant changes in recent times,
which have revolutionized the way we use and perceive
light. Currently, the industry provides a vast range of
lighting choices, ranging from simplistic and subtle fixtures
to bold, visually striking pieces that serve as art
installations. These lighting options create unique and
memorable environments that reflect the brand and values
of businesses while enhancing the overall design and
atmosphere of the space.
In recent years, sustainability has become a crucial factor
for businesses, and the lighting industry has responded by
creating eco-friendly and socially responsible lighting
solutions. LED lighting is a prime example of this, using
significantly less energy and producing less waste compared
to traditional lighting solutions. Additionally, the lighting
industry has developed recycling programs to ensure that
lighting fixtures and components are disposed of
appropriately at the end of their life cycle.
The advancements in technology have brought about
significant changes in the way we interact with our
surroundings. Notably, the lighting industry has also

undergone a transformation. The emergence of smart
lighting systems has made it possible to integrate with other
IoT devices such as sensors, thermostats, and security
systems. This integration creates an interconnected
environment where data is utilized to optimize lighting
levels, temperature, and security, thus enhancing efficiency
and comfort in the workplace. Ultimately, the lighting
industry's growth has opened up new and exciting
possibilities for businesses to create unique and exceptional
environments that reflect their brand and values. The added
benefit of promoting energy efficiency and sustainability
has also made it more appealing to adopt these
advancements.
This article will explore the role of the lighting industry in
contributing to the growth and development of the modern
business sector.

1. Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency has become a top priority for many
businesses due to the rising costs of energy and the need to
reduce carbon emissions. The lighting industry has
responded by developing more energy-efficient lighting
solutions that are cost-effective and environmentally
friendly. LED (Light Emitting Diode) lighting has emerged
as a leading technology in this regard, offering significant
energy savings and a longer lifespan compared to
traditional lighting solutions. LED lighting has also become
more affordable, making it accessible to small and medium-
sized businesses.
2. Smart Lighting
Smart lighting is another development that has transformed
the lighting industry. Smart lighting systems use advanced
sensors, software, and wireless technologies to adjust
lighting levels based on occupancy, daylight levels, and
user preferences. These systems provide significant energy
savings by reducing lighting when it is not required and
improving the overall lighting experience. Smart lighting
also offers added benefits such as improved security,
comfort, and productivity in the workplace.
3. Human-Centric Lighting
Human-centric lighting is a new concept that focuses on the
effects of light on human well-being and productivity. This
approach acknowledges that lighting affects our circadian
rhythm, mood, and cognitive performance. Human-centric
lighting systems use color temperature and intensity to
simulate natural daylight and adjust lighting levels
throughout the day to support our natural sleep-wake cycle.
This type of lighting has been shown to improve mood,
sleep quality, and overall well-being, making it an attractive
option for businesses that prioritize employee well-being
and productivity.
4. Design and Aesthetics
Lighting has a significant impact on the design and
aesthetics of a space. The lighting industry has responded
by developing lighting solutions that not only provide
illumination but also enhance the overall design and
ambiance of a space. Designers and architects now have
access to a vast array of lighting options, from minimalist
and understated fixtures to bold and statement-making
pieces that serve as art installations. These lighting
solutions help businesses create unique and memorable
environments that reflect their brand and values.
5. Sustainability
Sustainability has become a critical consideration for
businesses, and the lighting industry has responded by
developing lighting solutions that are environmentally
friendly and socially responsible. LED lighting, for
example, uses significantly less energy and produces less
waste compared to traditional lighting solutions. The
lighting industry has also developed recycling programs to
ensure that lighting fixtures and components are disposed of
properly at the end of their life cycle.
6. Internet of Things (IoT)
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized the way we
interact with our environment, and the lighting industry has
not been left behind. Smart lighting systems are now
integrated with other IoT devices, such as thermostats,
sensors, and security systems, to create a seamless and
connected environment. These systems use data to optimize
lighting levels, temperature, and security, creating a more
efficient and comfortable workspace. IoT lighting solutions
also offer remote control and monitoring capabilities,
allowing businesses to manage their lighting systems from
anywhere in the world.
Conclusion
The lighting industry has evolved significantly in recent
years, offering businesses a range of innovative lighting
solutions that have transformed the way we use and
perceive light. The industry has embraced new technologies
such as the Internet of Things (IoT) to create connected and
intelligent lighting systems. By incorporating these
advanced lighting solutions, businesses can create unique
and memorable environments that reflect their brand and
values while promoting employee well-being,
sustainability, and productivity. The lighting industry will
continue to play a vital role in the growth and development
of the modern business sector, providing businesses with
the tools they need to stay competitive, enhance their
customer experiences, and promote sustainability. As the
industry continues to innovate and evolve, it will be
exciting to see what new lighting solutions emerge and how
they will shape the future of the business landscape.

Believe it or not, the future is already here at this
moment. Smart homes are necessary for a healthy,
safe, secure, and sustainable life. Smart homes
equipped with all the advanced technologies and futuristic
devices are in-synced in an intelligently integrated
ecosystem. In this ever-increasing smartness, you can either
go old-school or replace traditional modular switches with
Toyama Electric’s smart switches and start controlling
your existing lights and fans through three different ways to
control Devices-Home Automation.
According to Toyama’s Director and CTO, Mohammed
Omar, these three ways are
Ÿ Smart Remote: You can control various electronic
devices and appliances in your home or office using a
single remote control. With a smart remote, you can
control lights, AC and other home automation with a
single device rather than multiple apps or remote
controls.
Ÿ WizHom App: Toyama’s WizHom smart home
automation app is an app that allows you to control and
manage various aspects of your home, such as lighting,
temperature etc. A single app to control your entire
home and automagically manage everything from the
convenience of your phone.
Ÿ Voice Commands: Control a smart home with a voice
assistant, such as Amazon Alexa or Google Home,
which allows you to control various electronic devices
and appliances using voice commands. Voice assistants
can also be integrated with smart home devices and
systems, allowing users to control multiple devices with
a single voice command.
Toyama was founded by Mr SMM Azeez in 1989. The
visionary firm brought home automation and lighting
controls to the country in the mid-2000s. The leadership of
Toyam has been passed down to Mr Azeez’s son, Mr
Mustafa Kamal, and is currently led by Mr Mustafa and Mr
Omar.
With his expertise in Computer Science, Mr Omar ensures
that the company's products and solutions meet the latest
industry standards and set new trends. The three generations
of the family have made Toyama Electric a market leader in
the lighting industry and continue to take it to new heights.
In an exclusive interview with CIOLOOK INDIA, Mr
Omar spoke at length about Toyama and how they are
transforming the present by ushering people’s homes into
tomorrow’s technological horizons.
The highlights of the interview are given ahead.
Please brief our audience about your firm, its USPs, and
how you are currently positioned as one of the best
Lighting Solution Providers.

a smarter and more organised home.
Being an experienced leader, share your opinion on how
adopting modern technologies like AI and ML impacts
the lighting solution space and how your company is
adapting to the change.
AI and ML are disruptive and are here to stay. AI and ML
algorithms can be used to develop a self-learning system
that automatically adjusts the lighting based on the user's
preferences and behaviour. They can be used to optimize
energy usage and reduce costs by analyzing usage patterns
and predicting future consumption. They can also analyze
data from various sensors and predict when a device or
system will likely fail, allowing for proactive maintenance.
AI and ML can significantly enhance the efficiency,
comfort, and safety of lighting and home automation
systems and are here to stay.
Considering the current industry scenario, what
challenges do you face, and how do you drive your firm
to overcome them?
The trend of making false promises and failing to provide
adequate post-sales support to generate quick profits is
gaining momentum, which could ultimately result in a loss
of customer interest in the industry's advancements. To
counteract this trend, our approach is straightforward: to
under-promise, over-deliver, and prioritize customer
satisfaction.
What would you advise budding entrepreneurs who
aspire to venture into the lighting solution space?
My advice to anyone intending to venture into this exciting
industry is this:
*Focus on Innovation: Keep up with the latest
technological advancements and trends in the lighting
industry and use them to develop innovative and
differentiated products or services.
*Prioritize Customer Needs: Understand the customer's
pain points, preferences, and requirements, and develop
solutions that cater to their specific needs.
*Be Passionate: Pursue your venture with a deep passion
and commitment to your vision, and be persistent in
overcoming the challenges that come your way.
How do you envision scaling Toyama Electric’s
operations and offerings in the future?
This is a technology-intensive industry. Whatever
technologies are introduced will dictate the future verticals
and potential businesses. And we will ensure that we
remain at the forefront of all advancing technological
transformations.
