Thomas Xavier to move on from Orchard Advertising
To start own mentoring venture
Transformer is Xavier's personal project through which he looks to mentor young fast-trackers who see themselves as CEOs in the near future.
Speaking with Campaign India, Xavier said, "I have been with Orchard for 16 years and have seen the growth of advertising. I believe that people of my vintage can contribute to business creativity in ways other than advertising. I'll be looking to take my mentorship programme forward. I've also got concepts in business creativity for clients in different areas such as new product ideas."
Prior to Orchard Advertising, he has also worked with McCann Erickson, Leo Burnett and Mudra.
