The idea first took shape in Ladakh, where Ashwin and Eva discovered kombucha as a refreshing companion during long, demanding workdays. With their master’s degrees in clinical nutrition, both felt even more compelled to pursue this venture with a deeply health-focused mindset researching, experimenting, and brewing every batch themselves. This blend of personal&nbsp;</span><span><span>connection and scientific grounding shaped YoBe’s identity and gave their marketing a tone rooted in authenticity and lived experience.</span></span></p></div>
</div><div data-element-id="elm_eWMemFz1u7a-UX_vgGeh5g" data-element-type="text" class="zpelement zpelem-text "><style></style><div class="zptext zptext-align-left zptext-align-mobile-left zptext-align-tablet-left " data-editor="true"><p></p><div><div>Focusing their early efforts on Mysuru, a city known to be leaning toward healthier habits and mindful food choices and known for it's Yoga centres, YoBe adopted a community-driven approach to market entry.&nbsp;<br/>To better understand local preferences and build early-stage awareness, Ashwin and Eva connected with various schools, local events, and neighbourhood gatherings, using these touchpoints to observe customer behaviour and introduce kombucha through conversation and hands-on exposure. With the category still unfamiliar to many, YoBe leaned heavily on experiential marketing. Sampling sessions became a key acquisition tool, helping consumers appreciate the product through taste and direct interaction, while their transparent ingredient philosophy strengthened brand trust in a nascent and evolving beverage segment.</div></div><p></p></div>
</div><div data-element-id="elm_tlnsqBzxwkc10pmz5nUpYQ" data-element-type="text" class="zpelement zpelem-text "><style></style><div class="zptext zptext-align-left zptext-align-mobile-left zptext-align-tablet-left " data-editor="true"><p><span>A defining strength of YoBe's marketing is the hands-on involvement of the founders. They oversee production, speak to retailers, create content, and shape campaign ideas, ensuring their personality remains central to the brand. Their clear understanding of the audience-individuals seeking mindful choices without giving up flavour-guides their communication across platforms. This clarity helps their engagement feel aligned with what customers value and expect.</span></p></div>

While events and community interactions spark trial and conversation, their online platforms help deepen connection and sustain interest. Their advice to emerging brands remains simple yet powerful: begin where your customers already are, grow slow and steadily, and let your story stay honest. When the message is&nbsp;</span><span>authentic, the product delivers on its promise, and the effort remains consistent, marketing becomes far more meaningful.</span></p></div>

She emphasizes the role of neuromorphic computing, systems modeled after the human brain, and quantum computing, which she sees as key to solving problems classical machines can’t handle. “These technologies won’t just change industries, they will change how we understand intelligence and possibility,” she explains.</span></div></div>

He sees AI not as a replacement, but as a partner that enhances human creativity. According to Yashaswini, this transformation is reﬂected in education as well. “We’re not just teaching tools, we’re shaping mindsets,” she says. With AI-driven personalized learning and immersive environments like AR/VR labs, students today are engaging with concepts in ways that mirror real-world challenges.</span></div></div><p></p></div>

Some of the standout ideas included &quot;Skillswap&quot;—a platform promoting barter-based learning, &quot;Vaidhya&quot;—an AI-powered tool for mental health diagnosis and doctor-patient connection, &quot;Saathi&quot;—a digital service to help users find nearby helplines, and a solution focused on improving postpartum care.

However, after reaching out to prospective participants, we realized many were not familiar with this format of workshop and its benefits. Consequently, we adjusted our approach by reducing the training content and offering the workshop for free for a few sessions. This will allow participants to experience our training and become familiar with our brand, with the goal of offering paid workshops in the future.</span></span><br></p></div>

She used the metaphor of a tool-kit, comparing skills such as analytics and communication to essential tools like pliers and wrenches needed to navigate various career paths. Diana also commended the participants for stepping out of their comfort zones and taking the first step towards acquiring new skills by attending the workshop at Tekvocation.</span></p><p style="text-align:justify;margin-bottom:12pt;"><span style="font-size:18px;font-family:&quot;Josefin Sans&quot;, sans-serif;">V.
