The collaboration of OK Play India Ltd and MANN+HUMMEL was announced at the symposium on "Air Pollution - Causes, Effects, Prevention, and Cure," held on February 15th 2024, in Delhi.
Organized by MANN+HUMMEL and OK PLAY supported by the Indo-German Chamber of Commerce, the symposium brought together prominent figures such as Shri Tarun Kapoor- Advisor to the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India, Dr Hendrik Selle- Minister, Head of the Department for Economic & Global Affairs, German Embassy, Hon’ble Justice Swatanter Kumar, Former Judge of the Supreme Court of India and Former Chairperson National Green Tribunal, Dr Gopi Chand Khilnani- Chairman PSRI Institute of Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine along with experts in Medicine, Environment, Legal Affairs, Education, and Engineering.
