9 Why Pixel Hues is a Good Fit

Why NSC Mumbai + NCSM is a Strategic Imperative for TPH:
  1. NCSM = India's PREMIER Science Museum Network — 28 museums + 6M+ visitors/yr — TPH = preferred immersive-tech partner across the entire network
  2. NSC Mumbai = 2nd Largest Science Museum in India — ~1M visitors/yr — TPH pitch = network-wide contract leverage
  3. 3 NEW Galleries 2023-24 (Robotics, VR, Sports) — already investing in immersive tech, perfect timing for TPH pitch
  4. Interactive Science Exhibits = PERFECT for TPH — anamorphic 3D + AR + VR + projection mapping = science museum core competency
  5. Ministry of Culture umbrella (via NCSM) — direct path to MoC funding, Min Culture pitch, cross-pitch to all NCSM museums
  6. Anurag Kumar (ex-NCSM Dy DG) — NEW Victoria Memorial Secretary was ex-Dy DG NCSM = WARM INTRO PATH to NCSM
  7. 6M+ Visitors Network-Wide — TPH immersive-tech reaches 6x the audience of any single museum
  8. Mobile Science Exhibition Vans (2024-25) — NCSM is investing in mobile outreach = TPH can co-create mobile immersive-tech content
  9. 3D IMAX Theatre (NSC Mumbai flagship) — TPH can partner on immersive film content for the 3D IMAX
  10. Cross-pitch potential — same MoC umbrella as ASI + National Museum Delhi + NGMA + Victoria Memorial + Indian Museum
