500 Global today announced the appointment of Nadia Karkar as Managing Partner as the firm expands its global investment platform. Nadia’s appointment follows the recent announcement of the appointment of Atul Mehta — former Chief Investment Officer of the International Finance Corporation — to 500 Global’s Board of Directors, and reflects the firm’s continued build-out of the leadership and capabilities required to deliver on its next stage of global growth.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260407719214/en/

Nadia Karkar Joins 500 Global as Managing Partner

Nadia joins from TPG Rise, the $31 billion impact investing platform of TPG Inc., where she most recently served as Head of Business Development, responsible for product innovation, strategic partnerships and corporate development. She played a central role in building TPG Rise Climate’s Global South Initiative, a blended finance vehicle designed to catalyze at-scale institutional capital for investments in climate solutions across emerging markets. Before TPG Inc., Nadia was a Partner at Kirkland & Ellis LLP, one of the world’s leading law firms.

Nadia brings a unique combination of skills to 500 Global and will play a key role in defining and executing the firm’s strategic agenda. Her track record includes developing high trust partnerships with some of the world’s largest sovereign and institutional funders, and she brings expertise across venture, private equity, and infrastructure asset classes – a lens that maps directly onto 500 Global’s strategic evolution as a firm.

“Institutional and sovereign investment strategies should not only include backing great founders, but focus on aligning capital, policy, and innovation at scale,” said Courtney Powell, Chief Operating Officer and Managing Partner of 500 Global. “Nadia has spent her career at the intersection of all three, and she understands that unlocking investment in complex, high-growth economies requires convening the right partners around a shared thesis and translating that into models that can be repeated across sectors.”

“We’re seeing a turning point in how institutional capital engages with emerging markets – moving from a conversation organized around risk to one organized around what’s possible when the right capital, talent and infrastructure converge,” said Nadia. “To make that real, we need to move from one-off projects to durable platforms, and to redesign blended finance around aspiration rather than anxiety. 500 Global has spent fifteen years doing the hardest part — building local presence, earning founder trust, and investing in the ecosystems that make great companies and sustainable growth possible. I’ve arrived at just the right time to help build the next layer – the partnerships and platforms that move institutional capital into emerging markets and sectors at scale – and in so doing, create real, lasting impact in the places where it matters most.”

500 Global’s investment platform is rooted in the markets where it invests, comprising approximately 140 team members in more than 20 countries, with over 50% of its managing partners and senior leadership roles held by women. The firm’s platform spans the full investment environment – from catalyzing early opportunities, to scaling high-growth companies, to architecting sovereign mandates and national transformation strategies – underpinned by a dedicated ecosystem development and policy advisory infrastructure. It is this combination of local presence, representative leadership, and integrated capabilities that 500 Global relies on to help source high-quality opportunities and structure the partnerships required to scale them.

This next phase of 500 Global’s growth will focus on sectors where the convergence of institutional capital and entrepreneurial innovation creates not just commercial opportunity, but lasting economic and social impact, including climate resilience, global health, digital infrastructure, and financial inclusion.

About 500 Global

This installment of Empowering Innovation Together explores how AI is increasingly embedded in everyday products and services, from assisted search and messaging tools to healthcare wearables.

“AI is quickly moving from experimental technology into products people rely on every day, and engineers play a major role in shaping how it’s applied,” said Jeff Newell, President of Mouser Electronics. “As AI becomes embedded across consumer devices and connected systems, it’s important that these technologies are designed to support human expertise while remaining reliable and trustworthy. This EIT segment helps engineers explore the tools and insights they need to build the next generation of AI-enabled solutions.”

As AI agents and intelligent tools become integrated into homes, connected devices, and digital services, engineers are developing systems that enhance user judgment and keep users in control while maintaining transparency and privacy. New AI-powered platforms already demonstrate this potential – turning simple conversations into complete travel itineraries or providing deeper health insights through connected devices.

On The Tech Between Us podcast, Raymond Yin, Director of Technical Content at Mouser Electronics, and Dr. Marisa Tschopp, Senior Researcher at scip AG in Zurich, examine the new role of AI in human interaction and day-to-day experiences. They explore how AI advancements shape technology-enabled collaboration, including the long-term impact of daily integration and applications for mental health.

“AI is moving beyond experimental settings into the products people rely on every day,” said Yin. “Our first EIT navigates the next era in AI innovation, looking at how to use the technology to enhance people’s abilities and rethink how we can live for the better.”

In addition to the podcast, the EIT series includes an in-depth video, technical articles, a topic-related infographic, as well as subscriber-exclusive content, diving into everyday AI. By examining the range of cases where AI can level up technical expertise, engineers can build a class of tools to help reshape how people think, decide, and create while protecting privacy and control.

Finish, Reckitt’s No.1 auto-dishwashing^# detergent brand worldwide, has announced Bollywood star Ayushmann Khurrana as its brand ambassador, launching a new campaign built around the idea of “The Right Way to Dishwash”. Through its new campaign, Finish showcases the cleaning performance of Finish Ultimate Plus tablets with Bosch dishwashers on tough cooking stains, while addressing misconceptions among dormant dishwasher users and uninitiated audiences sitting on the fence due to existing certain pre-dispositions around the effectiveness of dishwashers.

Finish’s new campaign featuring Ayushmann brings relatability to the category in an entertaining way, while highlighting the powerful combination of Finish Ultimate Plus dishwasher tablets and Bosch dishwashers that can tackle tough cooking stains without the need for pre-rinsing. In the film, Ayushmann Khurrana accepts a challenge – if Finish tablets and a Bosch dishwasher can clean tough cooking stains, he will become Finish’s brand ambassador and promote the product; if they don’t, he gets a big fat cheque for doing nothing. When the powerful combination successfully cleans the toughest stains, Ayushmann loses the challenge and sets out to residential societies to demonstrate how the Finish and Bosch combination can tackle even the most stubborn cooking stains².

Indian cooking is known for its rich flavours, but also for the stubborn stains it leaves behind, from burnt-on^II residues to heavy grease. This has led many consumers to believe that dishwashers may not be powerful enough for Indian kitchens, prompting them to pre-rinse utensils before loading them into the machine and making the process seem more time-consuming and less convenient.

Addressing this concern, Finish Ultimate Plus tablets deliver powerful cleaning through three Power Chambers^, designed to tackle burnt-on stains^||, remove greasy residues and leave utensils with a shine. Designed to work effectively without pre-rinsing, Finish complements Bosch’s 70-degree hot water wash*, helping tackle stubborn cooking residues and making automatic dishwashing both effective and convenient for Indian households.

Speaking about the campaign, Ayushmann Khurrana said, “I only recently discovered that there’s no need to pre-rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Do you wash your clothes before sending them for dry cleaning? No, right? That analogy just blew my mind. I wasn’t aware of the effectiveness of the Finish + Bosch combination until I experienced it during the making of this campaign. It’s been great partnering with Finish to show how something as simple as the right dishwasher tablet can make everyday kitchen clean-up so much easier.”

Commenting on the launch, Gautam Rishi, Marketing Director, Hygiene, Reckitt – South Asia, said, “Indian cooking often leaves behind tough stains, which has led many to doubt whether dishwashers can meet the needs of our kitchens. But consumer habits are changing, and people are seeking smarter, more convenient solutions. As India’s leading automatic dishwashing detergent brand, Finish delivers powerful, reliable cleaning that fits seamlessly into modern lifestyles without the need for pre-rinsing. We are excited to have Ayushmann Khurrana onboard as the brand ambassador for Finish, and through our partnership with Bosch, we bring a powerful and dependable solution for Indian consumers.”

Nitin Pradhan, Group Executive Creative Director, Creative Head – Delhi, Leo Burnett, further added: “Finish Ultimate Plus, is one of the most advanced dishwashing innovations for Indian households. With Ayushmann Khurrana on board, we’ve added an interesting tonality and a common-man connect to the campaign, ensuring that everyone who has a dishwasher or a bias against it sits up and takes notice.”

With this campaign, Finish aims to encourage Indian consumers to embrace the right way to dishwash, trusting their dishwashers to tackle tough stains without pre-rinsing and making the shift from traditional handwashing to smarter, more efficient automatic dishwashing solutions.

IKS Health, a global leader in care enablement solutions across the patient journey, is proud to announce the launch of its AI-driven revenue cycle management (RCM) audit-ready coding engine that delivers up to 95% coding accuracy while reducing denials. With the average denial rate for U.S. claims at 12%, the IKS Health autonomous coding engine, now integrated with Epic and available in the Epic Connection Hub, combines AI-driven code assignment with expert human review to deliver accurate, audit-ready codes from chart to claim.

By using structured and coding-ready clinical documentation, IKS Health AI and rule-based logic smartly analyzes patient charts and suggests CPT, ICD, and E/M codes, providing a confidence score on every code. Human coders review low-confidence codes, while AI-approved codes flow through rules and payer validation. Accuracy is ensured through a pre-bill review layer, revenue rules check, compliance validation, and payor propensity analysis. IKS Health’s autonomous coding engine accepts charts from any source and is inherently audit ready with justification reports citing specific charted clinical evidence.

“Our AI-driven autonomous coding engine is frictionless and allows clinicians to be clinicians while keeping administrative and financial operations flowing and on track,” said Mayank Pant, Executive Vice President, Product Management. “We’ve created a sophisticated autonomous coding engine with human expertise that preactively overcomes denials and other claims issues, giving healthcare organizations much needed sustainability. Every code is scored, validated, and backed by clear justification for compliant, clean claims with shared accountability for results.”

The IKS Health autonomous coding engine is vendor agnostic and integrates with IKS Health’s Scribble Now ambient AI scribe solution, creating an agentic AI–powered workflow from chart to code to revenue that unlocks exponential value. IKS Health autonomous coding creates audit-ready claims with:

• Up to 95% coding accuracy
• 100% audit trail on every claim
• More than 80% of charts automatically coded

“Our new autonomous coding workflow is a key part of our full RCM platform, and is a total win for accuracy and reimbursement,” said Sachin K. Gupta, Founder and Global CEO of IKS Health. “Using AI-driven technology combined with human expertise removes unnecessary burdens from clinicians while strengthening the administrative and financial aspects of healthcare organizations, enabling them to operate more effectively and deliver better care to the patients they serve.”
