<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">EazyDiner, the largest restaurant reservation app in India has a new trick up their sleeve this month. Launching what they call the Biggest 'Eat Out Festival', this restaurant aggregator promises a Flat 50% discount on over 2,000 restaurants across the country, no questions asked. Spread out in their 9 pilot cities: Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Pune, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Jaipur and Goa; the discount is not just member specific, but for the whole table.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

</ul>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Now, one can explore the Parsi cuisine they were always attracted to at Soda Bottle Opener Wala, or binge on unlimited dim sums at Yauatcha, get Jager bombs for all their friends all night long at Summer House Café or take their parents to the fancy meal at JW Marriott that they always aspired to go to; and do all of this and more without worrying about the wallet because all month, with EazyDiner 'Eat Out Festival', one has to pay only 50%.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">So, this is how it works: download the app, choose a restaurant, select the preferred time slot and date, buy a discount coupon (worth either Rs.25, Rs.50 or Rs.100 depending on the kind of restaurant) and voila, reserve a table. With some great tech fueling, all of this takes a mere 18 seconds which leaves the customer with a lot of time to enjoy a leisurely meal while paying only 50% of the bill and saving enormously.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">It is a good time for Food and Beverage in the country with exposure to newer cuisines, flair for opening newer restaurants with an increased per capita income and spending capacity in the economy; and with influencers like EazyDiner, we predict the dining out landscape of the country to be competing with global standards.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">"A city's culture is defined by its restaurants and people eating out. We want everyone to get up and go to experience restaurants in their entirety. With this festival, we wish to make the best cuisine accessible to each and every one," said Kapil Chopra, the Chairman of the Board, EazyDiner.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">The sale and reach of the EazyDiner 'Eat Out Festival' is unprecedented with a whole world of restaurants and cuisines to choose from.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">This smart 'end of the season sale' suggests two things. One is that EazyDiner will constantly ensure to carve a niche for themselves, in the eating out space. They are the only app committed to ensuring the customer gets out of their home and has a great time. Secondly, they are truly respecting the universe of Food and Beverage, gradually penetrating into all segments and creating an entourage; that is truly celebrating dining out in the country.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Having said that, the app shall be live in 15 cities by the end of the year and with dynamic changes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">We also got a sneak peek into a candid video that Yuvraj Singh, the brand ambassador shall send out where he urges everyone to go download the app now. "He is booking his table through EazyDiner, are you?"<o:p></o:p></span></div>

India is definitely on an upward trajectory and through ILE 2018, we intend to
bring global understanding to the Indian landscape and further propagate this
business model. After the successful first edition of Licensing Expo last year,
we are ecstatic to inaugurate our second edition of the event. The licensing
industry is growing by 40% YoY and with second edition; we hope to close deals
worth INR 2000 Cr. India Licensing Expo is a dedicated hub for industry business
across diverse verticals like cinema, music, apparel, character, and sports
licensing all under one roof.”</i></span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

brand opportunities, elaborate knowledge forums, exclusive licensing
appreciations, fun character parade and many more. In the scenario, where India
is a brand-hungry market, we see a natural inclination towards licensing as an
effective retail strategy. Brand licensing has been well accepted as a retail
strategy in India, and through ILE 2018, we bring the universal perception to
Indian landscape. The owners of intellectual properties (IPs) comprising the major
character, entertainment, celebrity and corporate brands are keen to enter the
Indian market. Everyone wants to tap the 1.3 billion customer-base that the
country has, especially when the consciousness of brands among consumers in
900+ cities are very high</i>.”</span><span style="font-size: 13.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">If there is one video on the internet that is hard to miss is ‘Around the World in 360 degrees- 3 years epic selfie’ video which was released in 2014 and has already crossed over 200 million views across online platforms. The video was shot by Alex Chacon, a Texas-based Medical student who sold all his belongings in 2012 to fulfill his dream of traveling. Since then, Alex has traveled lakhs of kilometers on a motorcycle and has explored over 50 countries and 5 continents. He is a guy whose bucket list is not any specific destination but the experiences and he strongly believes that riding a motorcycle is like meditation for him. </span><span style="color: #222222;">On his visit to Mumbai, we met with Alex to understand the story behind his adventures and how he inspires lakhs of people around the world to travel.</span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;">After graduating from college, Alex decided to sell everything he had and start traveling. His first big trip was from Alaska to Argentina on a motorcycle. He had no idea back then what was going to work in his favor and what would not. So he started experimenting with his GoPro camera and tried to shoot his adventure in various ways and angles. The one that worked for him was obviously the selfie shots he took at different locations. The fun fact about the epic selfie video is that selfie sticks did not even exist in 2012. Alex’s creative brains were at work and he dismantled the legs of his tripod to actually make a 5kg selfie stick by tying up his camera on one end. </span><br />

He has not taken a day off for the past 7 years and is working 24 hours around the planning and execution of his travel. Even after returning back home his day is tied-up with changing his camera gears, buying the stuff he requires for the next trip and selling the ones not required, organizing and planning the next trip and the challenge. But the good part about his job is that it brings new surprises and experiences every day. One such surprise he recollects is randomly meeting a traveler in the southern part of a country and seeing her again after eight months in the northern part of the country without any communications. Such experiences he says make you realize that the world is actually a small place.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

This was Chacon’s 5<sup>th</sup> trip to India and he was busy meeting his fans in different cities and collaborating with fellow YouTubers and Influencers to inspire a lot more people. After a series on meet-ups in Mumbai, he headed to Ladakh- the mecca of motorcyclists across the world. His advice to riders going to Ladakh this year is very simple. He believes that more than the physical strength it’s the mental conditioning of the rider that matters in Ladakh and other high altitude places. If a rider is determined to reach his destination than he can any motorcycle with any gear to any place in the world. He says that if you are riding for the first time in Ladkah you need to go slow as it is not similar to the style of riding in the cities.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

He affirms that every country comes with a new set of challenge. But all the travel plans can be simplified, if we do a little bit of research and plan everything ahead. One of the best ways to do that is to thoroughly go through the government’s websites. <i>“I never show up to a border unprepared.  I make sure that I have all my documents, visas and all other local formalities sorted before arriving”,</i> says Alex.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The further you go from the big cities you meet genuine people who look a lot happier and simpler than most of us. He has one great story when he was in a village an hour away from Chandigarh. There was a school having a class in the outdoors and all the kids were just so happy to see a western foreigner in their village. Within minutes he was surrounded by over 100-150 children all trying to get in one frame for a picture. They followed his motorcycle in enthusiasm for a few kilometers until he was out of the village. Luckily, Alex Chacon has found this one thing very common in all parts of the world.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
