Following our presentation of Smart Scope® CX at the BRICS Bharat Innovates Exposition 2026, Periwinkle’s story has travelled beyond the exhibition floor — across national, regional and international media, highlighting our technology, founders and mission in women’s health.
From Pune to a Global Conversation
Some moments open doors. Others open conversations.
Following Periwinkle Technologies’ presentation of Smart Scope® CX at the BRICS Bharat Innovates Exposition 2026 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, we have been encouraged to see our story travel far beyond the exhibition floor.
Our co-founders, Veena Moktali and Koustubh Naik, had the opportunity to present Smart Scope® CX to Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and visiting BRICS leaders, taking an innovation developed in Pune for cervical cancer screening and triage to a prominent global platform.
Since then, different publications have highlighted different parts of the story — the technology behind Smart Scope® CX, our journey from Pune to the global stage, the founders behind the innovation, and our mission to make cervical cancer screening more accessible.

For us, this growing visibility is meaningful not simply because of the number of headlines, but because every story helps bring attention back to the reason Periwinkle was created:
to make timely cervical cancer detection more accessible to women, wherever they live.
Different stories. Different platforms. One purpose.
The stage is getting bigger. The purpose remains the same.
A Scope for Hope. 💜
