L&T Rebrands Data Centre Business as Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma

Larsen & Toubro (L&T) today announced the rebranding of its data centre business as Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma – a name inspired by the Sanskrit word for ‘sky’. The business, launched in 2024, was earlier known as L&T-Cloudfiniti.

Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma extends L&T’s core engineering and manufacturing expertise into the digital economy, with a forward-looking approach to data infrastructure that emphasises scalability, security, sustainability and Responsible AI.

By integrating advanced AI capabilities, cloud-native architectures and low-carbon operations, Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma offers a trusted platform for resilient digital foundations — enabling businesses and communities to thrive in an increasingly connected world.

Commenting on the rebranding, Mr S N Subrahmanyan, Chairman & Managing Director, L&T, said: “As India’s data centre market is projected to grow exponentially over the next few years, Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma embodies our vision to build a trusted ecosystem that supports the nation’s digital ambition. By integrating sovereign capabilities, AI-readiness and sustainable operations, we aim to enable bold innovation and secure growth”.

Ms Seema Ambastha, Chief Executive – Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma, added: “As L&T- Cloudfiniti transitions into its new avatar Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma, we embrace a name that mirrors our limitless vision — from the infinite power of cloud to the cosmic intelligence of vyoma. This rebranding represents our journey towards a more connected, intelligent and sovereign digital future”.

India’s digital economy is witnessing rapid expansion driven by cloud adoption, AI-led workloads and data localisation. Policy initiatives such as Digital India and Atmanirbhar Bharat are further reinforcing the need for sovereign, compliant infrastructure.

Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma is strategically positioned at the intersection of these growth drivers — combining scale, sovereignty, AI-readiness and sustainability. The brand will spearhead L&T’s expansion into hyperscale data centres across key Indian metros including Mumbai, Chennai and Bengaluru, with facilities designed to support high-performance computing and advanced data storage requirements.

Larsen & Toubro-Vyoma reflects L&T’s commitment to building future-ready platforms that empower enterprises and communities to innovate, collaborate and grow with confidence.

Why Visibility Matters: What I’ve Learned About the Power of Building a Personal Brand

Some of the most talented people I know don’t always get the recognition they deserve. They show up, work hard, and deliver consistently—but often remain under the radar. On the other hand, there are people who seem to grow quickly in their careers or businesses, and it looks like it happened overnight.

I used to wonder why. And while I’m still learning every day, one thing has become increasingly clear: visibility makes a big difference.

Visibility isn’t about being loud.

In today’s digital world, visibility isn’t about chasing likes or trying to be everywhere. It’s about showing up intentionally—sharing who you are, what you care about, and the work you’re doing. That’s where building a personal brand comes in.

So, what is a personal brand?

At its core, a personal brand is simply your reputation—both online and offline. It’s how people remember you after a conversation, a meeting, a LinkedIn post. It reflects your values, your voice, your energy.

And if you’re being honest and consistent, it’s less about "building" something new and more about revealing what’s already true about you.

Why visibility matters now, more than ever

1. You get noticed when you're seen

It might sound simple, but it’s true—people can’t support or connect with you if they don’t know you exist. Whether you’re job hunting, fundraising, or just trying to grow, visibility makes room for opportunities to come your way.

2. It builds trust over time

We tend to trust people we see and hear from regularly. When you show up authentically, even in small ways, people start to recognise your voice. Over time, that builds trust—without ever needing to say “trust me.”

3. Leadership isn’t just about a title

Influence today is less about seniority and more about contribution. People follow those who share generously, uplift others, and lead with humility. Visibility allows you to lead from wherever you are—not just from a certain position.

4. You get to shape your own story

If you’re not telling your story, someone else might fill in the blanks. Being visible helps you own your narrative—your values, your work, your journey—in your own words.

5. It helps you stand out, without having to compete

There are lots of skilled people in every field. What helps you stand out isn’t just what you can do, but who you are and how you do it. Your story, your lens, your presence—that’s what makes you different.

How I’ve started (and how you can too)

I’ll be honest—“building a personal brand” used to sound a bit awkward to me. But I’ve realised it doesn’t have to be performative. It can be honest. It can be quiet. It can feel like you. Here’s what’s helped me so far:

1. Getting clear on what matters to me

I’ve been asking myself: What do I care about? What kind of conversations light me up? I don’t have all the answers, but even small clarity helps shape what I choose to share.

2. Choosing platforms that feel right

For me, it’s mostly LinkedIn and conversations at events. I’m not trying to be everywhere—I’m just trying to show up consistently in the places that feel natural.

3. Being real, not just impressive

It’s easy to share wins, but I’ve found that people resonate more when you talk about lessons, challenges, and the messy parts too. I try to be open about what I’m learning—not just what I’ve “figured out.”

4. Celebrating others

Some of the best connections I’ve made have come from cheering someone else on. Visibility grows when you uplift others, not just when you talk about yourself.

5. Letting things evolve

My interests, focus, and voice have shifted over the years—and that’s okay. A personal brand isn’t fixed. It grows with you.

Here’s the part no one tells you: visibility isn’t about always being in the spotlight. Sometimes, it’s just about making sure you’re in the room. It’s about owning your space, your story—even if it feels a bit uncomfortable at first.

I’m still figuring it out, and maybe you are too. But if you’ve been waiting to feel “ready” or hoping someone will notice you—this might be your nudge. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be present.

Because in a noisy world, a real voice—yours—is exactly what someone’s waiting to hear.

Cisco Merges Meraki and Catalyst Into Single Wireless Brand 'Cisco Wireless'

'Cisco Wireless' is now the new unified brand that combines Cisco's Meraki and Catalyst product lines into a single wireless offering

Cisco, on Tuesday, announced the merger of its Meraki and Catalyst product lines into a single wireless brand called Cisco Wireless, at the company's Live conference in Australia on Tuesday. This consolidation aims to simplify licensing, add more value, and provide a seamless wireless management experience across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid networks.

The new Cisco Wireless brand will encompass both Meraki and Catalyst products.

Unified Licensing

Cisco has streamlined its licensing structure, offering Essentials and Advantage tiers with different levels of functionality.

The new 'Cisco Wireless' offers a single license that covers the entire Wi-Fi 7 solution, simplifying the purchasing and management process.

Wi-Fi 7 Access Points

Cisco has debuted two new Wi-Fi 7 access points, the CW9178 and CW9176, which can be managed using either on-prem controllers or cloud tools. Wi-Fi 7 offers significant performance upgrades, including higher data transfer rates, reduced network congestion, and support for advanced applications like AR and VR.

The new access points are AI-native, self-configuring, and built for resilient, secure connections.

Global Consistency

For Global Consistency in the new Cisco Wireless product line, regional variations are now implemented in software, allowing for consistent hardware across different markets.

Software-Defined Adjustments: The hardware remains consistent across regions, with local variations handled through software configurations, ensuring compliance with regional regulations without the need for different hardware models.

Previously, Cisco had to create different product models to meet regional regulations and requirements, which led to regional variations in their devices. This meant that devices sold in different regions might have had slight variations in hardware to comply with local regulations, such as radio frequency (RF) power limits, wireless spectrum usage, and other regulatory requirements.

With the new unified Cisco Wireless' brand, these regional variations are now implemented in software rather than hardware. This allows for a single product model that works globally, automatically adapting to local regulations through software configurations. This change simplifies the manufacturing process, reduces costs, and provides customers with consistent hardware that can be used worldwide.

Support, previously optional, is now included in the new licenses.

Deployment

Cisco Wireless solutions can be managed on-premises, in the cloud, or in a hybrid environment, providing ultimate flexibility.

This consolidation is expected to reduce design and manufacturing work for Cisco while providing customers with simplified product portfolios and licenses starting from December 2024.

Angel Broking Rebrands to Angel One, to Cater to All Financial Needs of Its Millennials

The Digital Broker transforms to offer financial services along with stockbroking services

Mumbai, August 03, 2021: FinTech platform Angel Broking has unveiled its new identity Angel One, a ‘Digital First’ brand that will serve all financial needs of its clients, including stockbroking services. In its new avatar, the umbrella brand will encompass every existing and future business unit of the entity.

Speaking on the unveiling of Angel One, Mr. Prabhakar Tiwari, Chief Growth Officer, Angel Broking Ltd said, “Our goal is to position Angel One as a leading FinTech entity and present ourselves in a contemporary, dynamic, tech avatar to build a strong connect with the new-age GenZ and Millennial Indian investors.”

Angel One is an innovative, and empowering platform that easily resonates with the Gen-Z and millennials, including those from tier 2 and 3 cities. The transformation is a fusion of the company’s brand legacy and ambitions, as the company transcends from a broking house to a ‘one-solution’ platform for every financial need – ranging from mutual funds to insurance, loans and others.

Even though the corporate entity name will remain Angel Broking Limited, the consumer-facing masterbrand will now be called ‘Angel One’. The changes will be seen across all Angel Broking platforms and touchpoints, both external and internal. To fully live up to the ambition of being a digital-firstbrand, its platforms across the web and app are constantly being updated.

Incorporated in 1996 as a traditional broker, Angel Broking shifted focus to extensively using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning as it transitioned into a fully digital platform by 2019. It added state-of-the-art solutions like ARQ Prime, Angel BEE, Smart Store, Smart Money, etc. It introduced a simplified pricing structure of zero brokerage on delivery trades and a nominal Rs. 20 per order for intraday, futures & options, currency and commodity under its iTrade Prime Plan. As Angel Broking has evolved the digital experience it offers, its open-architecture approach led to several third-party tie-ups, including Vested, smallcase, Sensibull, and Streak.

Mr. Narayan Gangadhar, Chief Executive Officer, Angel Broking Ltd, said, “We have witnessed a growth in revenues after digital transition with our tech-led platforms. We are also in the process of building more products and services, using our deep technology skills, that will widen the scope of offerings to our clients. To effectively communicate this to our clients, we are repositioning ourselves as Angel One.”

Angel Broking is confident about the success of its new positioning, based on the successful transitions done in the past. At present, the company has more than 5 million clients spread across 98% of India’s pin codes, i.e. 18,874 locations. In Q1 FY22, it recorded the highest gross revenue in a quarter at Rs 4,745 million.
