InnKey, India’s leading enterprise hospitality technology platform, has unveiled a new brand identity, marking a major leap in its journey from a cloud-native PMS to a complete, intelligent enterprise platform for the global hospitality industry.

What started as InnKey PMS has now evolved into simply InnKey, a reflection of the brand’s wider mission to power next-generation hospitality experiences that are personalised, paperless, and people-focused.

“This new identity represents more than a design change, it marks a deeper commitment to innovation, security, and scalability,” said Viral Shah, Founder & CEO of InnKey. “InnKey today serves some of India’s most respected hospitality brands, helping them deliver superior guest experiences while optimising operations across every level. Our focus is to take this Made-in-India technology to the world.”

From being one of India’s first cloud-native PMS solutions, InnKey has evolved into a robust, secure, and deeply integrated enterprise platform trusted by hotel chains and premium brands. Today, it powers The Fern Hotels & Resorts, Pride Hotels, Residency Hotels, Accord Hotels, Orchid Hotels, Treat Resorts, and several other leading and emerging hospitality groups across the country.

The unified platform connects every part of hotel operations  from Reservations and Front Desk to Housekeeping, F&B, Sales & Catering, Procurement, Finance, MIS, and Analytics ensuring smooth data flow, operational consistency, and enhanced guest personalisation.

As the industry moves towards full-scale digital transformation, InnKey is setting new benchmarks for intelligent hospitality systems. The brand’s vision extends beyond software, towards building an ecosystem that makes hotels smarter, operations simpler, and guest experiences truly memorable. “InnKey’s technology now powers some of the most respected hotel groups in India, with global collaborations on the horizon,” said Rohan Shah, Co-Founder of InnKey. “This is only the beginning of our journey to take Indian-built technology global. Our ambition is to set new standards in hospitality efficiency, intelligence, and experience.”

The refreshed InnKey identity balances enterprise-grade reliability with the warmth of human connection, symbolising technology that’s built in India, trusted by leading hotel brands, and ready to scale globally. “We are not just digitising operations, we are humanising technology,” added Rohan Shah. “The new InnKey reflects the spirit of collaboration, innovation, and reliability that hoteliers expect from a true strategic partner.”

Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMIA) has announced its Winter Schedule 2025–26, featuring an expanded network that connects the city to 129 destinations, including 60 international and 69 domestic routes. The schedule, effective from 26 October 2025 to 28 March 2026, marks a significant step in strengthening Mumbai’s position as one of India’s premier global aviation gateways.

The new schedule introduces three new international routes, Copenhagen, Denpasar Bali, and Athens, expanding connectivity for both leisure and business travellers. This development also represents an 18 per cent increase in European operations, supported by new frequencies to London Heathrow, Amsterdam, and Paris, enhancing long-haul accessibility from Mumbai.

With enhanced services across the Asia-Pacific and European sectors, the airport expects a steady rise in daily flight movements and overall passenger traffic during the winter season. Among international airlines, Emirates, Etihad, and British Airways remain the leading operators from CSMIA, while IndiGo, Air India, and Akasa Air dominate domestic operations. Collectively, these airlines will account for nearly 75 per cent of total flight movements throughout the winter schedule.

To ensure a smooth festive travel experience, the airport has expanded several technology-driven facilities such as DigiYatra-enabled e-gates, Self-Baggage Drop (SBD), and Self Check-in kiosks, all aimed at reducing queue times and improving passenger flow during peak travel periods including Christmas, New Year, and school holidays.

With this new schedule, Mumbai International Airport Ltd. (MIAL) reaffirms its commitment to operational excellence, world-class infrastructure, and seamless passenger experiences. The expansion reflects the airport’s continuous effort to connect India’s financial capital with more global destinations while delivering efficient, technology-led travel for millions of passengers each year.

Chinese Wok, India’s leading homegrown Desi Chinese quick-service restaurant brand, has announced its debut in the reality TV entertainment space with ‘I-POPSTAR,’ Amazon MX Player’s latest music reality series celebrating India’s independent music talent. As the Official Food Partner, Chinese Wok brings its bold, youthful flavour into the heart of music, culture, and creativity, strengthening its connection with the country’s vibrant Gen Z and millennial audience.

Produced by Rusk Media, I-POPSTAR features 25 emerging musicians competing across auditions, gala rounds, and the grand finale, mentored by King, Aastha Gill, Aditya Rikhari, and Parmish Verma. The show embraces diverse genres including Pop, Rap, R&B, Rock, EDM, and regional fusion, spotlighting originality and fresh voices from across India.

The collaboration reflects a shared spirit between the show and the brand. Today’s young India is ambitious, expressive, and constantly evolving, qualities that align with Chinese Wok’s “Wok Your Way” ethos, which celebrates individuality and hustle. The partnership takes shape through on-air integrations, backstage interactions, playful exchanges with mentors and contestants, and a unique challenge segment that blends flavour, creativity, and performance in true Chinese Wok style.

As part of the association, the brand will co-create an exclusive jingle with one of the I-POPSTAR contestants, infusing music and flavour into a vibrant brand experience. Beyond the screen, Chinese Wok will have a presence at key events such as the Mumbai premiere, Delhi finale festival, and youth showcases across major cities.

Aayush Madhusudan Agrawal, Founder & Director, Lenexis Foodworks, shared,

“Chinese Wok has always resonated with the ambition, pace and individuality of young India. Our partnership with I-POPSTAR is a strategic step in expanding our cultural footprint and engaging deeply with the country’s most dynamic, creative audiences. With 250+ outlets across 45+ cities, this collaboration signals the next phase of our brand evolution, where food, culture and creative energy meet.”

Adding to this, Vikas Iyer, Marketing Head, Lenexis Foodworks, said,

“I-POPSTAR is raw, expressive and unapologetically fresh and that’s exactly the spirit of Chinese Wok. We’re excited to join India’s next popstars on-screen, share fun flavour moments, and even co-create a jingle with one of the artists. It’s food, culture, music, and youth energy coming together and when cravings hit the stage, Chinese bole toh Chinese Wok!”

This marks Chinese Wok’s first-ever entry into the reality TV and talent ecosystem, a bold and strategic move that builds deeper cultural relevance with India’s young audience through music, humour, sport, and digital storytelling.
