11th March 2025, India – Felicity Games, a leading global mobile game publisher, has raised $3 million (INR 25.8 crore) in a seed funding round led by 3one4 Capital, with participation from international investors such as T-Accelerate Capital (Singapore) and MIXI Global Investments (Tokyo). The funding round also saw strong follow-up investments from existing backers DeVC and Visceral Capital, further emphasizing investors’ confidence in Felicity’s long-term vision.

The fundraising follows a period of rapid growth for Felicity, which has now surpassed $1M in annual recurring revenue (ARR) and crossed 1 million downloads across its top-performing titles, Seek & Find and Nova Solitaire. Founded in 2023 by Anurag Choudhary, Felicity Games is focused on pioneering a scalable playbook for global game publishing by tapping into India’s burgeoning game development ecosystem. Specializing in hybrid-casual games publishing, the company combines data-driven insights with a strong execution model to deliver high-performing mobile games to audiences worldwide. The company closed  February with over $100K in gross revenue, marking a 4X scale-up from November 2024.

With this new round of funding, Felicity Games plans to expand its publishing infrastructure and deepen its relationships with Indian game studios. The company is committed to scaling its successful titles and using the funds to test additional games by the end of 2025. This investment will also support the company’s mission of becoming the go-to partner for studios looking to scale their games profitably and sustainably.

In 2024, Felicity Games forged partnerships with over 10 Indian studios to test and scale several games, further strengthening its publishing infrastructure and its position in the competitive global market.

Speaking on this Sonal Saldanha, VP at 3one4 Capital said, “The gaming industry has changed significantly, with mobile adoption and new advertising rules reshaping how games are built, discovered, and monetized. These shifts create opportunities for new companies to emerge. Felicity is taking a first-principles approach to building a substantial gaming business from India by leveraging exceptional talent, operational efficiency, and rapid execution. We share Anurag’s vision and are excited to support an industry-defining gaming company emerging from India,”

“We are building the next generation of global gaming successes from India,” said Anurag Choudhary, Founder & CEO of Felicity Games, “At Felicity, we take a tech-driven, execution-focused approach to systematically identify and scale global hits. By tapping into India’s studio ecosystem and top global talent in UA, Monetization, and Live Ops, we’re accelerating learning and innovation. This fundraise fuels our mission to double down on innovation, partnerships, and growth”

Through this latest round of funding, Felicity Games is poised to bridge the gap in the mobile gaming ecosystem, providing studios with the technology, insights, and comprehensive support needed to compete and succeed on a global scale.

Hyderabad 11 March: Lovely Professional University (LPU) has always been committed to building strong, supportive connections between students, parents, and faculty. Recently, the university held a series of Parents-Teacher Meetings (PTMs) across key cities in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, including Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, and Hyderabad. Thousands of parents actively participated in these events, engaging in discussions about their children’s academic progress, challenges, and overall growth.

During the meetings, parents received firsthand information about their children’s performance and well-being. LPU faculty and staff guided parents through discussions regarding the students’ classes, project activities, and individual challenges. Additionally, parents were introduced to the LPU Touch app, which offers an easy, centralized way to stay connected with the university and monitor their child’s progress. Through this app, parents can access real-time updates about academic records, project work, class activities, and other key details about their child’s education. The app proves especially useful for parents of hostel students, providing them with information about their child’s whereabouts and activities, including when a student leaves the hostel.

LPU’s PTMs stand out as a significant part of its academic culture, making it one of the few institutions in India to offer both on-campus and off-campus platforms for parents to engage. This flexibility ensures that more parents can take part in their children’s educational journey, enhancing community involvement in student development. These meetings also reflect LPU’s dedication to transparency, offering parents a detailed view of their children’s progress, both academically and personally.

Col. Dr. Rashmi Mittal, Pro-Chancellor of LPU, stated, “At LPU, we are constantly looking for innovative ways to engage parents in their child’s educational journey. We understand how important it is for parents to stay informed and be part of their child’s development. That’s why we have introduced the LPU Touch app, which makes it easier for parents to access their child’s academic updates, track their progress, and even stay in touch with the university when needed.”

Mr. Ravi Shankar Rao, father of Ravi Akash Babu, a B.Tech CSE student, expressed, “As parents, these meetings have been extremely valuable in providing a deeper understanding of our child’s academic journey. We are more aware of children’s progress, strengths, and areas that need attention. The open discussions with the faculty were incredibly helpful in clarifying our concerns and offering guidance. Also, the app is a great tool for staying informed about academic updates and staying connected with the university, making it easier for us to track their progress and be actively involved in their educational experience.”

India, March 11,2025:This year, Spykar, India’s leading denim brand, is turning the idea of Women’s Day on its head with its latest campaign, #HerDayEveryDay. Because let’s be honest—why should celebrating women be limited to just one day when they own every single one?

Spykar isn’t here to preach about empowerment. Instead, it’s making a statement: whether at work, at play, or just kicking back, every day is already a woman’s day. With #HerDayEveryDay, the brand is championing this simple truth through fun, engaging initiatives, real conversations, and a whole lot of denim.

“At Spykar, we don’t believe in setting reminders to celebrate women on a specific day,” said Sanjay Vakharia, CEO and Co-Founder at Spykar. “Women own their space every single day, and we’re here to acknowledge that in a way that feels natural, smart, and unapologetically real.”

Spykar is teaming up with dynamic women across entrepreneurship, fashion, lifestyle, and beyond to highlight their everyday wins—big or small. Through social media takeovers, digital storytelling, and interactive content, the brand is keeping the conversation fresh, witty, and engaging.

Encouraging its audience to join in, Spykar is inviting people to share those everyday moments where women are just being their amazing selves—whether that’s killing it in a boardroom, acing street style, or simply saying “no” to something that doesn’t serve them. Using the hashtag #HerDayEveryDay, these moments will be featured across Spykar’s platforms, because every day deserves its highlight reel.

New Delhi — March 11, 2025: For the first time ever, the 19th edition of What Design Can Do (WDCD) Live Delhi 2025 took place at the iconic India Habitat Centre on March 08, 2025, and featured an immersive program of talks, workshops and exhibitions on design and climate justice. A sold-out crowd of 450 designers, innovators, and changemakers gathered to explore how design can help reshape lives in the face of a planetary crisis. In partnership with Unbox Cultural Futures, Quicksand, and The Design Village, WDCD Live Delhi 2025 explored innovative and regenerative solutions for a fairer and more resilient future. The festival was supported by Global Methane Hub, The Rockefeller Foundation, The Netherlands Embassy, and Pro Helvetia – Swiss Arts Council.

Leading the conversation with a potent mix of urgency and optimism were over 30 of the world’s finest changemakers from The Netherlands, the UK, the USA, Mexico, and India. Richard van der Laken, Co-Founder and Creative Director of What Design Can Do (WDCD) captured it insightfully: “Though perspectives were diverse, one message rang clear: in turbulent times, creativity can offer a hopeful way forward. Design can be a powerful tool for disruption, as we learned from the innovators at WDCD Live Delhi 2025 — all of whom are paving the path ahead.”

As Ayush Chauhan, Co-Founder of Unbox Cultural Futures and Quicksand put it, “WDCD Live Delhi 2025 made it amply evident that change will come only when we challenge the dominant ways of working and thinking. Alongside designers and creative changemakers, who demonstrated how they are subverting unsustainable economic models, there were those from fields of policy, philanthropy, and technology, that threw down the gauntlet for how the design community needs to respond to the unique challenges of our population and region. There was a restless creative energy in the room that comes when a new vision is discovered and new alliances are formed and WDCD Live Delhi gave us both.”

Sourabh Gupta, Co-Founder of The Design Village said, “At The Design Village, we believe that community is everything, and at WDCD Live Delhi 2025, we truly saw that in action. It was an inspiring and motivating day filled with incredible sessions, speakers, and an incredible turnout.”
