NC State alum Sunny Bhathela launched VIANI, a watch company featuring Hindi numerals, honoring South Asian mathematicians from the 6th and 7th centuries. The choice highlights the historical significance of the Hindi Numeral System, known for its decimal-based numbers and profound influence on global mathematics and science.

Sunny’s advice to current students is to explore and utilize the resources at NC State. “A dream without action is just a hallucination,” Sunny said. “When the moment of boiling inspiration strikes, follow it up immediately with action.”
