Taking the Untravelled Path: The need to be able to create a culture of innovation and agility was the driving force behind the decision to turn entrepreneur. It is also true that we are possibly the last generation who will see the opportunity growth and readiness that India presents.
Most Innovative Marketing Work: The most innovative is yet to land, but the programme that really stands out for me has been the campaign “Learn with Yahoo” for Yahoo India. Not only did it wrangle every bit of energy, creativity and coordination from us early on as a young agency, but the results it drove hold a place of pride in my heart. The campaign also won us a Globe.
