Lenovo Innovation World at IFA 2026

The announcements bring together Lenovo’s “one personal AI, multiple devices” approach with enterprise technology that helps organizations turn data into insights and value. They span personal AI across PCs, smartphones, tablets, and wearables; creator and consumer devices that adapt to different ways of working and expressing ideas; and business technology built for AI-enabled productivity, collaboration, security, and scale.

Lenovo also demonstrated how design and form factor remain central to making technology more useful: from high-performance local AI systems and pen-first tablets to colorful consumer laptops, flexible business devices, and concepts that rethink mobility and workspace.

Major announcements include:

• Lenovo & Motorola Qira: Expands support across more eligible PCs, Motorola devices, applications, services, and—through moto watch ultra—the first Motorola wearable to support Lenovo and Motorola Qira on compatible devices^1*.
• Yoga: NVIDIA RTX Spark-powered creator laptops, new AI tablets, and Lenovo Smart Canvas Concept for connected creative workflows.

“AI is changing the relationship between people and technology. People don’t wake up thinking about apps, they think about what they want to accomplish,” said Luca Rossi, President of Intelligent Devices Group, Lenovo. “We’re showing how Hybrid AI can help make that shift real by bringing intelligence together across devices, the edge, and the cloud, so it can work in the right place at the right time. Across our new Lenovo and Motorola portfolio, we’re building the foundations for one personal AI that can move with people, while helping businesses put AI to work where their data already lives.”

One Personal AI, Multiple Devices

Lenovo & Motorola Qira is expanding across more devices, apps, and markets, bringing Lenovo’s personal ambient intelligence to a broader device ecosystem. Eligible Lenovo PCs with 16GB of memory gain support, broadening access beyond higher-memory configurations. Eligible edge, razr and signature devices will also gain Motorola Qira as they receive the Android 17 upgrade, and the new moto watch ultra will be the first wearable to support Motorola Qira^1*.

Through Lenovo’s new collaboration with Workato, supported Qira experiences^2* are also expanding across Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Contacts, Slack, Outlook Mail, and Outlook Calendar—helping people move more naturally from intent to action across the services they use every day.

Niharika Singhania Delivers Stellar Performance at Brussels Stephex Masters With a Clear Round at 1.45m and Finishing Sixth in a CSI2* Grand Prix Represents a Significant Level of International Performance

Business Wire India

Key Highlights:

• Breaking Barriers: Niharika Singhania continues to shatter glass ceilings as a prominent female equestrian athlete, earning respect and commanding elite arenas in a traditionally male-dominated sport.
• Double International Accolades: Honoured with two prestigious international awards, recognizing her skill, resilience, and rapid emergence on the global stage.
• Elite European Results: Delivered a clear first round on 29 August in the 1.45m CSI2 Grand Prix at the Brussels Stephex Masters with First To Cash Out, wrapping up a sixth-place result amidst world-class competition.
• Championing Female Excellence in a Traditionally Male-Dominated Sport

In a sport where male athletes historically dominate, 19-year-old Indian equestrian Niharika Singhania is proving that vision and skill transcend traditional boundaries. Cementing her status as one of India’s most extraordinary sportswomen, Niharika – who added two major International accolades to her record last year – delivered a stellar performance at the prestigious Brussels Stephex Masters in Belgium on 29 August 2026. Competing against a strong international field, the 19-year-old produced an impressive clear first round over the demanding 1.45m course with her Asian Games partner First To Cash Out to earn a place in the jump-off. Completing the jump-off in 43.65 seconds with eight faults to take a sixth-place finish.

Niharika’s exceptional consistency earned her a coveted selection for this year’s Asian Games team – a landmark milestone for the young athlete – before her competitive show-jumping category was unfortunately dropped prior to the Games. Undeterred by the administrative decision, Niharika continues to let her performances speak. She is the youngest and only woman in India’s four-member show jumping team and that makes her journey more about the visibility of women in sport where access to horses, international competition and sustained training is demanding. Niharika has spoken openly about wanting to inspire younger girls to take up the sport and compete at the highest level.

Speaking on her performance, Niharika Singhania said, “Honestly, I think it’s something I can be really proud of my team and myself for. To have this kind of result in a 2* Grand Prix, and especially in Brussels, which is such a prestigious venue, is a dream. Cash is just such an incredible horse, and I’m so grateful to have him as my partner. More than anything, it’s just an extremely satisfying feeling for me to be able to put the Indian flag up there in the rankings in such a European-dominated field at this level.”

Niharika’s performance in Brussels also brings into sharp focus the question of how India identifies, supports and develops its leading equestrian athletes for major international competitions. The Brussels Stephex Masters is one of Europe’s important international show-jumping events, attracting riders and horses from across the world. Producing a clear round at 1.45m and finishing sixth in a CSI2* Grand Prix represents a significant level of international performance for a 19-year-old Indian athlete.

Yashaan Khambatta, Coach of Niharika Singhania, said, “Niharika’s stellar performance and finish in the 1.45m CSI2* Grand Prix at Brussels Stephex Masters is a very significant result for a 19-year-old Indian rider. The clear first round demonstrates both her ability and her growing confidence with First To Cash Out. What is particularly encouraging is how quickly she has developed this partnership and adapted to the demands of international competition. Stephex Masters has reinforced our belief in her potential. Our focus now is on building consistency, gaining more international experience & Victory for the tricolour.”

Niharika’s stellar performance is not merely a result on a scoreboard. It is evidence of the potential of India’s young equestrian talent and a reminder of why promising athletes must be given every opportunity to compete, develop and represent the country at the highest level.

Nethradhama Super Speciality Eye Hospital Joins the 41st National Eye Donation Fortnight, Urges Citizens to Pledge and Bridge India’s Corneal Donation Gap

Business Wire India

Nethradhama Super Speciality Eye Hospital is actively participating in the 41st National Eye Donation Fortnight (25 August to 8 September), an initiative led by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, to accelerate eye donation pledges and bridge the severe gap between the supply and demand for donor Corneas in India.

India is home to approximately 1.1 million people living with orneal blindness, yet only around 25,000 to 30,000 corneal transplants are performed each year. Despite 396 functional eye banks across the country and a 12 per cent rise in Cornea collections from 62,370 in 2022-23 to 69,848 in 2024-25 as recorded by the National Programme for Control of Blindness & Visual Impairment, the gap between need and availability remains wide.

As part of this year’s fortnight, Nethradhama is intensifying its public awareness efforts through community rallies, eye donation camps, talks at schools, colleges and corporates, and digital and on-ground myth-busting campaigns. The hospital also offers online pledge forms, e-pledge cards, a 24×7 eye bank hotline, and trained personnel for timely tissue collection across the city.

Dr. Sushmitha Sriganesh, Executive Director, Shraddha Eye Bank, and Chief Medical Officer, Shraddha Eye Care Trust, pointed to awareness and public understanding as the core of the problem. “India continues to face a significant burden of corneal blindness, with donor Cornea availability falling well short of the need. While the eye-banking ecosystem has strengthened, greater public awareness and informed family conversations are critical to closing this gap,” she said.

She also addressed the misconceptions that continue to hold potential donors back, and said: “Many people still fear that eye donation will disfigure the face, believe that only younger people can donate, or assume that conditions such as diabetes, hypertension or previous Cataract surgery make donation impossible. These are misconceptions. The eye bank carefully assesses the suitability of donated tissue, and eye donation is a dignified and respectful process.” Shraddha Eye Bank’s guidance further clarifies that spectacle wearers and people who have had LASIK surgery can also donate.

Beyond dispelling myths, Nethradhama emphasises that a pledge is only as strong as the family’s awareness of it. Dr. Supriya Sriganesh, Consultant, Cataract and Refractive Surgeon, and Executive Director, Nethradhama Super Speciality Eye Hospital, underscored the role families play in making donation possible. “Pledging your eyes is only the beginning. It is extremely important to tell your family about your decision so they can honour that wish when the time comes. A formal pledge is not the only route to donation; even if someone has not formally pledged, their family can still come forward and give consent if they know their loved one wished to donate, subject to the applicable process and medical assessment,” she said.

She added that the process itself is far simpler than most people assume, and said: “There is no cost involved for the donor family, and the retrieval process generally takes only 15 to 20 minutes, without significantly delaying funeral arrangements. Families should contact the nearest eye bank as soon as possible after death, ideally within six to eight hours, to enable timely assessment and retrieval. Ultimately, eye donation is a gift that you can continue to give even after death. All it takes is a decision to donate, a conversation with your family, and a timely call to the eye bank can give someone else the possibility of seeing again.”

Eye donation in Bangalore can be pledged online via Nethradhama’s Eye Donation page and registered with Shraddha Eye Bank, Jayanagar. As National Eye Donation Fortnight brings the issue into focus, Nethradhama continues to advocate for awareness that moves beyond one-time pledges and becomes part of everyday family conversations, so that a decision made in one home can become the gift of sight in another.
