The second wave of the ongoing pandemic in India has brought upon a situation completely unprecedented and overwhelming. As the country continues its battle to defeat the virus, Huawei, a leading global ICT solutions provider, is undertaking initiatives to provide care, support, and ensure the wellbeing of all employees. Huawei Technologies India, the company’s Bangalore R&D Centre, which is also Huawei’s largest overseas R&D facility, has launched several programs to aid its people and continues to further identify ways to support them.

With an endeavour to sensitize all employees and provide emergency aid to those affected by the virus, Huawei has set up an emergency team to handle all concerns of employees around the matter and provide hospitalization support to them. The company has also set up a dedicated portal for COVID-19 care, as a one-stop solution for employees to address any related issue or clarification. Additionally, Huawei has opened a national support facility in association with medical service providers to offer medical and hospitalization support, and doctors’ consultation for employees and dependents.

As the number of daily cases continues to stretch the limits of the country’s health infrastructure, Huawei has arranged an exclusive 24*7 ambulance service available to all employees and their dependents in case of emergency. The company has also arranged for emergency beds with oxygen support in partnership with leading hospitals in case any employee or their dependents are unable to find a bed at the time of need.

Huawei has been a strong advocate for vaccination ever since the government had launched the inoculation drive. With an aim to encourage employees and their dependents get vaccinated, the company is preparing to build a facility to administer vaccines onsite at the Bangalore R&D Centre. Further, considering many of its employees are currently working remotely from various parts of the country, Huawei will also be tying up with hospitals pan India to make vaccination more accessible to its people and their families.

The pandemic, in addition to taking a toll on physical health, has also significantly affected the mental health of individuals. In an effort to ensure the overall wellbeing of its people, Huawei has partnered with senior doctors and psychiatrists to conduct regular sessions to ensure mental wellness, while also regularly organizing yoga and meditation sessions for improving physical health.

Bi Yunfeng, CEO, Huawei Technologies India, said, “As a people-centric organization, employee health and safety are Huawei’s top priority and the company will support and aid every member of the Huawei family.”

Mi India from the house of Chinese tech major Xiaomi has emerged as the No.1 brand in after sales services, as per a study by Red Quanta, a leading consumer intelligence firm.

The study says that owning a Mi India device provides the assurance of a smooth after-sales experience for customers.

When compared with other brands, Mi India had the highest percentage (85%) of completely satisfied customers, in the premium category (over Rs 20,000 price segment), followed by OnePlus, Apple, and Samsung.

In the non-premium category as well, Mi India led the charts with the highest percentage (51%) of completely satisfied customers followed by OnePlus. Furthermore, Mi India also ranked No.1 in CSAT scores in premium and non-premium categories.

The objective of the study was to understand brands’ commitment to their customers after the sale was already made and to measure a customers’ happiness quotient post purchase. The brands were measured against six parameters that make up the journey of a consumer seeking after sales services, namely infrastructure and ambience at service facility, COVID-19 safety parameters, smoothness of service initiation, staff interaction, turnaround time for service completion and quality of issue resolution.

The findings are based on an expansive study conducted by RedQuanta across tier 1 and tier 2 markets with over 8,000 respondents.

Muralikrishnan B, COO, Mi India, said, “At Mi India, gaining and strengthening the trust and satisfaction of our users is paramount. We realise that the quality of our devices and our robust after sales service practises go a long way in reinforcing trust in the brand. We have an expansive after sales service network covering over 600+ districts in the country and have always pushed the boundaries in terms of delivering services including but not limited to online appointments, transparent spare parts pricing, COVID safety norms, quick and efficient repairing process, minimising wait time, etc.”

Fitza is a one-of-a-kind mobile app conceptualized to touch the lives of people through health and nutrition, leveraging technology. Available on both Android (Play Store) and Apple (App Store) platforms, the app is a unique blend of ancient traditional knowledge and modern artificial intelligence.

A human-centred AI-powered application, Fitza is deeply rooted in delivering personalized and sustainable nutrition plans based on age-old practices, user likes and dislikes, grandma recipes and natural homemade remedies with proven outcomes and most importantly addressing immunity building. It adapts to your body type i.e., body prakriti and doshas and intelligently changes your meal plan to drive meaningful results.

In a nutshell, Fitza enables people with personalized guidance to lead healthier and more fulfilling lives, without making drastic changes in their lifestyle.

Fad diets, much like superfoods as well as a one size fits all approach rarely work and are, many a times, counter-productive. Food is not medicine and medicine will never be food. For a line of treatment to be sustainable and effective, the plan needs to be personalized and adaptive to your body type. Based on the ancient science of the three doshas/ forces – Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, Fitza allows you to assess the state of your doshas and recommends the right nutrition to balance it.

Celebrity nutritionist Shweta Shah is one of the biggest proponents of this approach to healthy living. In her 15-plus years as a nutritionist, she’s helped many renowned personalities, including Harbhajan Singh and Katrina Kaif. Her unique approach to using natural remedies have driven positive outcomes for them amidst their busy lifestyle. She has contributed her similar expertise in Fitza’s development as she believes that this forgotten wisdom needs to be shared with those struggling with nutritional and lifestyle issues.

Given that doctors aren’t formally trained to be nutritional experts, the personalized and outcome-driven diet plans like those suggested by Fitza can help people tremendously. Proven to be effective in helping women with PCOS and other chronic hormonal disorders, Fitza’s nutrition care platform can complement and support the efforts of doctors.

“Fitza is an important step in integrating nutrition care into the care delivery ecosystem and certainly in terms of empowering people with the knowledge of nutrition,” says Sir Dr Huzaifa Khorakiwala, CEO at Wockhardt Foundation. “We feel proud partnering with them in their mission to make nutrition advice easily accessible and very affordable,” he adds.

“We believe right nutrition is perhaps one of the most impactful things that’s being under-looked,” says Nikhil Behl, CEO, Fitza. “We hope to make great nutrition advice easily available, accessible and affordable to all,” he adds.

Team Fitza comprises nutrition experts, technopreneurs, entrepreneurs, who have been part of several zero to one journey as well as partners with a common sense of purpose and a deep understanding of the problem that Fitza hopes to solve.

In a world that’s filled with nutrition advice and Instagram-friendly aesthetic diet trends, Fitza’s traditional and unique approach certainly stands out.
