A radio station turns four

BANGALORE: On Sunday, Radio City 91 FM turns four. Reason enough for Bangalore's first private radio channel to launch a weeklong extravaganza to mark the event. Radio City fans will get to win a lot of prizes, including a free chopper ride over the city. The gala celebrations kick off on Thursday. In "Who is Wishing Us," Bangaloreans will have to guess the voice of the celebrity attending the bash. The "Mega Fan Mega Prize" will test the listeners' knowledge of the radio station.

"Every true-blue Bangalorean has music pulsating through his/her veins. Radio City has a slot dedicated to English music beginning from July 18," says Bhaskar Dutt, vice-president and station head, Bangalore.

Can seaweed help solve the world's plastic crisis?

  After you finish your fries, eat the ketchup packet. When you add your pasta to boiling water, toss the bag into the pot, too. If these instructions sound confusing to you, it's only because you haven't yet heard of Notpla, a London-based startup company that is designing a seaweed-based replacement for single-use plastic packaging. Founded in 2014, the company closed a £10 million ($13.5 million) Series A financing round last month, led by the VC firm Horizons Ventures, to scale and further develop its product line.
