– How this solution-oriented startup set its foot in the most unorganized, unstructured industry in an attempt to streamline the infamous ecosystem.
Entrepreneurs are natural at thinking up solutions to problems people face. They have a vision of correcting a wrong in their environment and end up creating something exceptional and offering succor to everyone around them. Similar is the story of Mr. Varun Agrawal, founder, and CEO – StarClinch aka disruptor of the entertainment industry.
The reputation of the Entertainment and Arts industry has been besmirched brutally due to various reasons openly known to the public and followers of footlights. The showbiz industry seeks to captivate, shock, inspire and amuse audiences of every stripe, in spite of all the attractiveness of this arena, some risk-taking is certainly essential — but this industry is likely among the most difficult to manage.
Founder: Mr. Varun Agrawal
The challenges and risks associated – some already established and some emerging are third-party liability, surety/guarantee of performance deliverance, shortage of talent, digitization, non-standardization, etc.
Today, the global market for art is over 50 billion dollars. It is not standardized, the prices are not transparent, and there is no regulation of the sector as a whole. The aforementioned elements are crucial characteristics of any investment asset. The absence of these qualities leaves the art market open to manipulation. These limitations were unimportant in the past because art was mostly purchased for personal use. An example would be if you purchased a painting because you liked it and put it in your living room where you could enjoy looking at it. However, it wasn’t yet a valuable investment asset. Today, however, things are different; art is more diverse than just paintings, and not all artists focus exclusively on producing them.
To consider the art, entertainment, and recreation industry as an investment asset, rectifying the challenges and risks is an uphill struggle. It requires a great deal of determination, vision, ceaseless efforts, and ardent passion to create a smooth ecosystem out of unorganized industry.
The art, culture, and entertainment domains today include audiovisual, cinema, live performance in all its disciplines, music in all its components, museums, and heritage, visual arts, design, architecture, crafts, video games, books, and press. A wide variety of opportunities is available for the artists to express themselves as well as explore what the market has to offer. However, due to the disorganized and unstructured nature of this arena, artists and clients are unable to connect effectively with each other. To provide a solution for this untapped space in the gig economy, the aim of StarClinch is to act as a trust layer and ensure a transparent, efficient business between parties.
Starting in 2015 from a basement with just 3 people and tremendous zeal in their minds, Varun entered the arts and event industry with a vision to capture the management aspect of it. Cut to 2022 with a workforce of 15 people equivalent to 30 in a co-working space, survived a deadly pandemic and its consequences, and completely digitized its website for easy browsing, shortlisting, and booking of talent, the journey of StarClinch has been no less than a rollercoaster.
Back in 2015, StarClinch was more or less an offline business with a website as a listing platform for artists primarily focussing on Live Bands and Singers. The team physically visited their clients which were mainly restaurants and bars in and around Delhi to provide them with lower-budget artists who performed at the cafes. In the good old days, the website was not used as a gateway for online transactions and was not technically forward.
The team started to analyze the problems and issues they experienced firsthand and decided to shift their gear towards adopting an online model of business and scale their product for a smoother interface for both artist buyers as well as artist providers. In 2018, they upped their game by introducing the “See Price” & “Book Now” options on the website which allowed the clients to initiate payments via the website itself after exploring and ruminating the artists’ profiles.
At present, StarClinch is the first Indian company to be VC funded that works in the entertainment sector and is eyeing to capitalize on the opportunity while addressing unstructured talent discovery, reference checks, and performance assurance. The objective is to act as an umbrella platform for its customers and be a one-stop solution for booking any live artist. It is a product that would help budding entertainers & artists make a presence in the gig economy. They recently have assisted organizations such as Maersk Tankers, Twilio, JTB India, and Meesho to procure artists for their events.
Although OnePlus no longer releases mid-cycle upgrades of its flagship smartphones, the company’s Nord line of devices continues the pattern. We originally learned in January of this year that OnePlus was planning to release a ‘T’ variation of last year’s OnePlus Nord 2. OnePlus have officially unveiled the OnePlus Nord 2T, and it is exactly what recent rumour predicted. The smartphone has been a hot topic in the rumour mill and on certification platforms, and its official release puts an end to such speculations. Here’s all you need to know about the new Oneplus Nord-:

Specifications:

On the right side of the frame are the volume and power keys, with the power button also serving as a fingerprint scanner. It’s worth noting that the Nord 2T lacks a headphone jack and a microSD card slot.
The MediaTek Dimensity 1300 SoC in the Nord 2T is one of MediaTek’s most recent flagship CPUs. It is, in fact, the first smartphone to use the chipset. The Dimensity 1300 is the successor to the Dimensity 1200 from last year, and it now supports 5G. On some variants, the processor is paired with 8GB or 12GB of RAM, while storage options include 128GB and 256GB. The Nord 2T is powered by a 4,500mAh battery that supports 80W SuperVOOC rapid charging. OnePlus even throws in an 80W charger in the box. The good news is that the device supports 80W charging, which was previously only accessible with the OnePlus 10R. OnePlus currently only supports 80W fast charging with its 10R smartphone. In India, the identical handset is available for Rs 38,999. The business claims that the included charger will charge the phone to 100% in roughly 30 minutes. From the start, the Nord 2T 5G operates on OxygenOS 12.1 based on Android 12.
The OnePlus Nord 2T has a 50-megapixel Sony IMX766 main sensor with optical image stabilization, an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera, and a 2-megapixel macro camera for photography. In the punch hole cut out for selfies and video calls, a 32-megapixel IMX615 sensor is housed.

Apple revealed a new set of accessibility capabilities on Tuesday that would help individuals with impairments navigate new places and conversations more easily. The new features, which will be available later this year, combining software, hardware, and machine learning. It’s unusual to hear directly from Apple about new features in unreleased iOS releases. These types of announcements are normally saved for a special occasion, such as WWDC 2022. Apple, based in Cupertino, has announced new accessibility capabilities that will be available shortly, most likely with iOS 16. Door recognition and live subtitles for FaceTime, streaming multimedia, and even spoken chats are among Apple’s latest accessibility capabilities.
What’s
new:
Live subtitles for videos on iPhones, iPads, and Macs are a huge new feature. People who are deaf or hard of hearing will benefit from this feature. They may use Live Captions on the iPhone, iPad, and Mac, making it easier for them to follow any audio content, such as during a phone call or while watching the video. Users can choose the text size, see Live Captions for all FaceTime call participants, and type responses that are spoken aloud. Later this year, English Live Captions will be available in beta for iPhone 11 and later versions, iPad models with the A12 Bionic and later variants, and Macs with Apple hardware. The live captions function simply allows viewers to watch a video with the sound turned off and read along with the text at the bottom of the screen. The capability is compatible with FaceTime calls, streaming services, and other video conferencing apps, according to Apple. If you’re an Android user, Google already has something comparable.
Individuals
who are blind or have low vision will be able to use their iPhone or
iPad to detect a door when they arrive at a new location, determine
how far away they are from it, and describe the door’s properties,
such as how it can be opened and any nearby signs or symbols, using
Door Detection. Along with People Detection and Image Descriptions,
the functionality will be part of a new “Detection Mode”
in Magnifier. Only iPhones and iPads with a LiDAR scanner will be
able to use Door Detection. It will also indicate whether the door
is open or closed, as well as whether it can be opened by pushing,
pulling, turning a knob, or pulling a handle. Even signs and symbols
around the door, such as room numbers or the accessible entrance
logo, are read by the function.

accessibility features will be implemented.
