reetings dear readers,
Welcome to the November 2025 edition of MAGNAV International, where innovation, culture, and human ambition converge once again in stories that define our time.

This month, our cover story celebrates Sergey Brin, the visionary who helped shape the modern digital world. His journey, from a young immigrant in the Soviet Union to co-founding Google, reminds us that technology’s true purpose lies not only in intelligence, but in curiosity and courage.

We also spotlight Dr. Sumbul Desai, Apple’s Vice President of Health, whose work at the intersection of technology and humanity is transforming how we understand wellness. Her leadership shows that progress in healthcare is as much about empathy as it is about engineering.

Our pages further explore the remarkable paths of Barron Trump, redefining youthful entrepreneurship in the digital-asset era, and Ben Maruthappu, whose company Cera is reshaping healthcare delivery through data and compassion.

Beyond individual visionaries, we dive into the forces shaping the world around them—from geopolitics and market volatility, to blockchain and Web3 integration, where the UAE stands poised to lead a new chapter of digital trust.

Culture, too, commands its place. Priyanka Chopra’s global evolution from Miss World to Hollywood powerhouse reveals how identity can become influence; Ali Gordon and Lydia Elise Millen reflect a redefinition of modern luxury and authenticity in the digital age; and emerging creatives such as Ljoya Bou Francis remind us that elegance and innovation remain timeless companions.

As 2025 draws to a close, this issue of MAGNAV invites reflection on how far human imagination can reach when powered by purpose, shaped by resilience, and guided by vision.

Thank you for reading and for continuing to travel with us through stories that illuminate the people and ideas redefining our world.

Warm regards,
Paul smith
