Tour de France 2025 winner Stage 21 standings final results: Tadej Pogacar crowned 4th time for Yellow Jersey
Tadej Pogacar on Sunday won Tour de France 2025 in rainy Paris finale. Slovenian rider Pogačar bagged the Tour de France for the fourth time. Pogacar has won the iconic Yellow Jersey. Wout van Aert claimed victory in Stage 21, crossing the finish line first in a dramatic conclusion to the race. However, due to heavy rainfall and safety concerns on the cobbled Montmartre route, organizers neutralized the race timing with about 50 kilometers remaining. As a result, while van Aert's stage win stands, the overall general classification standings were locked in before the final laps—a decision that confirmed Tadej Pogačar as the winner of his fourth Tour de France title.

TrEST Research Park-incubated semiconductor start-up Netrasemi secures Series A funding
Fabless semiconductor start-up Netrasemi Pvt. Ltd., incubated at the State-run TrEST Research Park, has successfully raised ₹107 crore in an achievement that could fuel Kerala's deep-tech ambitions. Higher Education Minister R. Bindu said the investment in the start-up's Series A funding round (first round of venture capital funding after a start-up receives initial seed funding) was led by Zoho Corporation and Unicorn India Ventures. 'This is a significant leap for Kerala's growing semiconductor ecosystem. Netrasemi's success adds momentum to the State's deep-tech vision and proves the value of fostering innovation through academic-industry collaboration,' the Minister said. Founded in 2020 by Jyothis Indirabhai, Sreejith Varma and Deep Geetha, Netrasemi is developing a new generation of domain-specific, power-efficient Edge-AI System-on-Chips (SoCs). These chips are being widely adopted in sectors such as robotics, autonomous systems, smart IoT devices and surveillance technologies. Flagship products like Netra A2000 and R1000 are already in commercial use, offering cutting-edge solutions powered by a patented heterogeneous parallel processing architecture capable of supporting over 100 AI/ML applications, the Minister added in a statement. The start-up has also received backing from the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) under its Design Linked Incentive (DLI) and Chips to Start-up (C2S) schemes. Modelled after the IIT Madras Research Park, TrEST Research Park was established to offer world-class R&D infrastructure and mentorship, and turn academic research into market-ready solutions.
