Where There Is No Stage: Victoria Isaac, Her Violin, and the Care Homes of Chennai
Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], July 31: Most of Victoria Isaac’s violin is played in care homes, not concert halls. In June, the social impact of that work won her a Changemaker Award in Gurugram. There is no stage. There are no lights, no backdrop, no LED wall. There is a corridor with a marble floor, plastic chairs set along one wall, and about twenty women in cotton saris sitting in them, some of them turned in their seats to see better. A sister from the home stands at the far end. In the middle of the floor, a nine-year-old in...

New Delhi [India], July 30: Every year, between 500 and 600 online sellers using Address.co move off their home address to a virtual office address and register their business in one or more states across India.

Funding rounds and revenue numbers...

The Chief Guest Was Nine: Victoria Isaac Takes the Stage at MRF Club Day in Chennai
Chennai, India, 29 July: MRF invited a nine-year-old violinist to be chief guest at its Club Day. She was honoured on stage, then played, and the audience ended the set on its feet.
