- Sachin Tendulkar has teamed up with OpenAI in a multi-year partnership, lending the cricket legend's global profile to the AI company.
- Tata Trusts has proposed merging Tata Electronics Systems Solutions and Tata Consulting Engineers with Tata Sons, a structure designed to sidestep a standalone Tata Sons listing.
Why it matters: The Tendulkar-OpenAI tie-up gives the AI firm a marquee global ambassador in cricket's largest consumer market, India. Tata Trusts' merger route keeps Tata Sons private by absorbing TESS and Tata Consulting Engineers, shielding the conglomerate from public-market scrutiny on a potential IPO.
