    Carl Pei’s Nothing appoints Megha Vishwanath to lead communications in India

    New Delhi : One Plus co-founder Carl Pei’s new consumer technology company Nothing has roped in former technology journalist Megha Vishwanath as public relations manager for its India operations.

    In her new role at Nothing, Vishwanath will lead communications and influencer engagement in the region, the company announced on Thursday.

    “I am thrilled to welcome Megha to the Nothing family as we build our team in India. With her background in journalism combined with a deep understanding of technology in India, she will play an integral part in driving our regional communications strategy,” said Nothing India vice-president & general manager Manu Sharma.

    The forward-thinking consumer tech brand was announced in January 2021 to lead the way for the launch of an ecosystem of smart devices that are uniquely designed, quality engineered and simple to use.  

    “I am excited to be a part of Nothing’s journey and its vision of a seamless digital future. Nothing has ambitious plans for the India market and the world,” said Megha Vishwanath.

    A business journalist, Vishwanath has also worked as a television anchor and news producer. She joined Nothing from CNBC-TV18 India where she was the assistant editor and anchor. As the tech lead, she was also responsible for producing and anchoring some of the channel’s marquee shows like Tech Toyz, Startup Street and India’s longest running programme on entrepreneurship Young Turks.

    CNBC TV18’s Shereen Bhan and Megha Vishwanath turn singers in newsroom

    MUMBAI: Who says news anchors and reporters are boring fuddy-duddy folks who only research and track developments through the day?

    Well Shereen Bhan and Megha Vishwanath, who work for CNBC TV18 as managing editor and assistant editor respectively, show they are not in this twitter post they put out on Sunday, 12 April 2020.

    In the video, Vishwanath is playing the guitar – and that too pretty dexterously – and Bhan belts out the John Denver classic Country Roads, which many of us can’t get enough of. And mark our words,  Bhan sure can sing. She is pretty much on key and makes you feel good. They go on to mix it with Lucky Ali’s Milke Bichad Na to Dastoor Ho Gaya and both do a pretty good job of it. Before finally switching to Country Roads once again.

    The duo finally sign off with a pretty sheepish giggle. And they have tagged the post as “newsroom jamming”.

    So, remember guys, unlike most of us who are at home, these two are actually trudging their way bravely to the news studio, working their butts off to bring viewers the latest in the time of COVID-19.

    Hats off to these unsung heroes of the pandemic!
