Berrada sees similarities between Amorim and Guardiola
Even though Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has endured a difficult start to life in England, chief executive Omar Berrada can see the similarities with Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. Berrada joined United after working as the chief football operations officer at City Football Group and recognises United's parallels with Guardiola's tricky debut season, where City finished fourth."It was difficult in Pep's first year," said Berrada in an in-depth interview with United We Stand fanzine, external. "He didn't win anything, and there was suspicion about whether he could implement his football vision in the Premier League. People said he was arrogant and wouldn't change his style of play. But he stuck to his principles."Berrada feels the difficulties Amorim has encountered since his arrival will benefit the club next season, insisting there is genuine reason for optimism."It won't be easy," he said. "There'll be some difficult moments ahead.

Google launches Google Safety Engineering Centre, India at Hyderabad
GSEC India to operationalise Google's Safety Charter for India's AI-led TransformationThe first GSEC in Asia-Pacific and fourth globally, brings together privacy engineering, cybersecurity, and responsible AI developmentStrategic partnerships with the Telangana government and academic institutions to strengthen India's digital safety ecosystem Hyderabad, June 18, 2025: Google today inaugurated its Google Safety Engineering Centre, India (GSEC India) in Hyderabad, the first such facility in the Asia-Pacific region and fourth globally. Telangana Chief Minister Shri Anumula Revanth Reddy inaugurated the facility along with the IT Minister Shri D. Sridhar Babu. It marks a pivotal milestone in the company's commitment to securing India's digital future. The inauguration follows the unveiling of Google's Safety Charter for India's AI-led Transformation in Delhi on 17th June. GSEC in India will serve as the operational heart where strategic commitments transform into tangible solutions; and represents a unique convergence of Google's global safety expertise, bringing together teams focused on privacy and security engineering, and advanced cybersecurity capabilities under one strategic umbrella to address India's distinct digital landscape. GSEC India will operationalise the three foundational pillars of Google's Safety Charter—keeping end users safe from online fraud and scams, strengthening cybersecurity for government and enterprise infrastructure, and building AI responsibly—while serving as a regional hub for developing solutions across the broader APAC region. Preeti Lobana , Country Manager and Vice President, Google India, said, " For India's digital engine to keep growing and powering its ambitious future, we must keep building trust in how users and enterprises access the digital landscape. With the inauguration of GSEC India today, we are bringing our global experience and expertise—from cutting-edge AI to foundational cybersecurity and user protection—to realize this commitment. Safety is a shared responsibility and this launch is a call for the entire ecosystem to come together and collaborate to make the entire chain stronger and smarter." Heather Adkins , Vice President of Engineering, Google Security, highlighted, "At Google, safety is built into everything we do, grounded in our 'secure by design, secure by default' philosophy. AI represents an inflection point for digital security - a force multiplier that narrows the gap between defenders and attackers, even eliminating it entirely in some cases . With GSEC India, we're situating these capabilities in India to serve its unique landscape and also be a lighthouse for our global security efforts.' Shri Anumula Revanth Reddy, Hon'ble Chief Minister of Telangana, emphasised, "The establishment of GSEC represents a pivotal moment in Telangana's journey toward becoming a global hub for cybersecurity innovation. This first-of-its-kind facility in the Asia-Pacific region affirms Hyderabad's crucial role in developing privacy, safety, and cyber-defence solutions for the next billion users, placing our state at the forefront of global digital safety efforts. With Telangana's GSDP projected to reach ₹16.5 lakh crore and IT/ITeS exports rising to ₹2.7 lakh crore, supporting over 9.5 lakh high-skill jobs, GSEC's presence will attract top-tier safety engineers and foster collaboration with academic institutions to tackle India's unique cybersecurity challenges while creating thousands of direct and indirect employment opportunities." Shri D. Sridhar Babu, IT Minister, Telangana, stated, "The inauguration of GSEC India demonstrates the power of public-private partnerships in building a secure digital infrastructure for our nation. This center will serve as a catalyst for innovation in cybersecurity, responsible AI development, and digital safety—areas critical to India's vision of becoming a global technology leader. We welcome Google's significant investment in Telangana's ecosystem and look forward to the transformative impact this facility will have on strengthening our state's position as a premier destination for cutting-edge technology research and development." Operationalising India's Digital Safety Blueprint GSEC India addresses India's rapidly evolving threat landscape—where APAC accounts for half of all global APT activity and India faces projected cybercrime losses of up to ₹20,000 crore by 2025—through a comprehensive, proactive approach combining AI-powered threat detection, ecosystem collaboration, and forward-looking policy measures. The facility will operationalise advanced AI and large language models (LLMs) to power real-time scam alerts on Android via Gemini Nano, strengthen Google Play Protect, and enhance fraud detection across Google Pay, Search, and Gmail. It will also tackle AI-driven deception through adversarial testing, AI-assisted red teaming, and tools like SynthID to watermark AI-generated content. GSEC India emphasises ecosystem collaboration and intelligence sharing via platforms like the Global Signals Exchange (GSE), supports education and user awareness initiatives tailored to India's scale and linguistic diversity, and advances research in areas like Post-Quantum Cryptography through partnerships such as its work with IIT-Madras. Building on a Strong Foundation in Telangana Google's nearly two-decade partnership with Telangana began with its first Indian office in Hyderabad in 2004—one of Google's largest base outside the U.S. This longstanding collaboration has driven impactful initiatives, including the AnthroKrishi project using AI for sustainable agriculture, traffic optimization systems with Hyderabad Police, and the launch of a Google Startup Hub to accelerate AI adoption. The partnership also extends to skill development through the Telangana Academy for Skill and Knowledge (TASK), enabling access to Google's IT Support Certificates to prepare citizens for the digital economy, underscoring the state's commitment to leveraging technology for inclusive growth. Global hub for safety innovation GSEC India lies at the core of Google's mission to advance ethical and responsible AI development through rigorous model testing for safety and fairness, robust content policies, and user-focused transparency tools. As a regional innovation hub, the centre will lead the development of scalable safety solutions tailored to India's unique needs, while also supporting Google's global vision for a safer internet. Its strategic role includes close engagement with policymakers, partners, and customers across APAC, reinforcing India's position as a key driver in the region's digital transformation. The inauguration of GSEC India represents a transformative moment for digital safety in the Asia-Pacific region, combining Google's cutting-edge technology capabilities with India's fresher talent ecosystem to build a safer, more resilient digital future for billions of users worldwide.
