The fifth edition of the annual prestigious 'Smt. Jyoti Dwivedi Memorial Scholarship Awards' was held online by Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (JBIMS) on April 29, 2023, with Mahesh Patil, Chief Investment Officer (CIO), Aditya Birla Sun Life AMC, joining the event as the Chief Guest.
 
Six grants - Two core scholarships of Rs 1 lakh each and four ad hoc scholarships of Rs 50,000 each were given to second-year M.M.S. students based on their academic performance and their family's financial standing.
 
The grant money was given to JBIMS by Mr. Nimish Dwivedi, who graduated from JBIMS in 1993. He has established this scholarship to honour his late mother, Mrs. Jyoti Dwivedi, and it is the first-ever scholarship to be offered by this top-ranked business school.
 
The winners of the two core scholarships are Prachi Bhagia and Jitesh Patil. The winners of the four ad hoc scholarships are Kunal Kalra, Mithilesh Singh, Prashant Chaudhary, and Onkar Gurav.
 
Dr. Srinivasan R. Iyengar, Director of JBIMS, said, "The Smt. Jyoti Dwivedi Memorial Scholarship, now in its fifth edition, was initiated by Nimish Dwivedi, an alumnus of the batch of 1993, who started this noble endeavour. It is worth mentioning that a few more alumni have shown interest in taking the initiative to create additional awards, inspired by Nimish's great initiative, which highlights the deep bond that all alumni share with JBIMS. We are immensely grateful to Nimish for his unwavering support in assisting current students at JBIMS, and we hope that his initiative will inspire future generations of students to support their Alma Mater."
 
Mr. Mahesh Patil, the Chief Investment Officer (CIO) of Aditya Birla Sun Life AMC Limited, said, "I am proud of my fellow classmate Nimish for launching this admirable project five years ago to lend a much-needed helping hand to outstanding students. Not only does this Smt. Jyoti Dwivedi Memorial Scholarship inspire students to pursue the career of their dreams, but it also instils in them a desire to make a greater positive impact in the communities in which they live and work. It is a pleasure for me to be a part of this journey today, and I wish all of the candidates the best of luck in whatever field they choose to pursue. I am confident that wherever they go, they will keep the JBIMS flag flying high."
 
Speaking during the ceremony, Nimish mentioned, "I urge all students to inculcate the values of Gaining and Giving. Giving back and sharing as they embark on their career journeys and commence gaining experiences, knowledge and perspectives."

Web3, in its infancy, has brought significant flexibility and creativity to the internet finance system in less than a decade. An open and decentralized ecosystem without intermediate and centralized systems is to be built for empowering the individuals. However, today the web3 lacks primitives to represent a native social identity system to sustain the trusted trades generated by the real society, on which the economy truly values.
 
SBT (Soul Bound NFT) has been one of the recent innovations of building the native social identity to support ubiquitous activities that are generated by humans and their relationships. With experience in the SIM industry for 20 years, Taisys has announced the Proof of SIM protocol to introduce the mobile network into the web3 infrastructure, with "SIM Connected SBT" that is issued autonomously and transparently through Ethereum to a unique active SIM holder with zero knowledge proof.
 
"We believe the web3 identity should be born natively on the mobile networks, where humans as well as their relationships are interconnected as the reliable ecosystem that can be augmented to the web3 internet with social and political optimum. The Decentralized Society requires a focal point where members tend to choose by default in the absence of communication. SIM Connected Bound (SCB) Token represents the commonly characterized soul with the largest potential for scalability, which is able to proliferate and enrich the SBT ecosystem in the best way," said Jason Ho, Taisys Chairman & CEO.
 
With underlying global identifiers of the SIM and mobile devices, PoSIM protocol produces the Merkle proofs within the SIM chip where there is no possibility for external interception to ensure data privacy. Through the authenticated cellular connectivity, the Merkle proofs are attested by the PoSIM smart contracts on Ethereum network for issuing the SCB token. The onboarding journey to the users is secure and smooth with self-sovereignty and privacy preservation for creating a Sybil resistant DeSoc (Decentralized Society).
 
In order to bootstrap the ecosystem, a MetaDuet DAO program will be launched for early adopters with TAISYS SIM overlay technology in telco agnostic way. TAISYS SIM overlay is an OTT (Over the Top) technology for brining web3 cryptography onto the SIM, making the SIM a hardware wallet by default as well as the substrate to create their decentralized social identity without giving away phone numbers. The hardware technology has been widely used in the last 2 decades for Fintech development and financial inclusion. It is verified by Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for offline digital payment with feature phones, and it's also approved by Financial Service Agency in Japan as the Fintech Platform over SIM (FPOS) for smart phones.
 
"The future partnership with MNO/MVNOs for their SIM/eSIM integrated with PoSIM protocol will bring us to massive adoption. We will make SIMs the mainstream hardware wallets that provide connectivity, identity and security for the mobile cybercitizens to enjoy the interconnected web3 ecosystems with online privacy for transactions, self-sovereignty of user data and inclusion of individuals to the internet economy," said Yvonne Chen, Taisys CSO.
