Hello everyone! Today, I've gathered the startup news released on September 29, 2025, and there were so many interesting stories that I wanted to share them with you. In particular, I've prepared a rich selection of content covering recent hot topics in the IT industry and future industry trends to watch! 🤩

Will Zoho's 'Arattai' Be the Star of the Surge?

Have you heard the name 'Arattai'? It's a cross-platform instant messaging and Voice over IP (VoIP) service ambitiously launched by IT company Zoho Corporation. Recently, this app has been receiving unexpected attention, with its download numbers reportedly skyrocketing! 📈

Arattai offers one-on-one and group chats, voice/video calls, file sharing, and even story and channel features. It's essentially positioning itself as an alternative to global messaging platforms, much like an Indian WhatsApp. It's also highly accessible, available on Android, iOS, and desktop operating systems.

The fact that it's built with indigenous technology has attracted the attention of many users, driving up download numbers, according to analyses. Hearing this news, I thought, 'Indeed!' It will be incredibly exciting to see if Arattai can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with established giants like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal, and if it can maintain consistent user engagement!

The Hidden Challenge in the Electric Vehicle Ecosystem: The Talent Shortage

Alongside the news of messaging app success, there was another important trend that deserves our attention: the 'talent shortage' issue within the rapidly growing electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem. 🚗💨

While the EV industry is expanding quickly with increased adoption, there's a potential bottleneck that could hinder this growth. This challenge is the difficulty in securing skilled technical personnel. 😥

Demand for experts is exploding across various fields, including the construction of charging infrastructure, EV production, and battery technology development. However, the supply of talent is not keeping pace. This is not just a problem for a few companies; it's a serious challenge that could slow down the progress of the entire industry.

Efforts are reportedly underway in India to address this talent shortage. The focus will be on how this issue will be resolved and what innovative solutions will emerge for nurturing new technical talent. 🤔 What are your thoughts on this issue?
