FT starts an India newsletter

The Financial Times has launched a new newsletter, “India Business Briefing.”

The newsletter will be sent out twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays. The first two issues will be free to read online, then it will be available for premium subscribers.

“India Business Briefing” will be written by Veena Venugopal, who joined the FT in November to lead the new newsletter. Venugopal is a published author, previously an editor at The Hindu and most recently senior editor at Apple.

“I am excited to bring the FT’s expert analysis and high quality journalism through the ‘India Business Briefing’ to our domestic audience in India,” said Venugopal in a statement. “The newsletter will curate essential business reading and help readers understand and contextualize important developments in the country and around the world.”
