Following the appointment of Malvika Mehra, elevation of Agnello Dias, Dentsu Aegis Network has announced an expanded role for Anand Bhadkamkar.

With this he will also be responsible for driving operational excellence in business and oversee support functions including HR and IT in India.  He will continue to report to Ashish Bhasin, CEO, greater South, Dentsu Aegis Network and chairman and CEO, India. 
 
Bhasin said, “Anand is exceptionally dependable, comes with strong leadership capabilities and has a very strong understanding of our markets, clients and services. Dentsu Aegis Network India is currently standing amid enormous market opportunities and with my expanded role and new geographies to look after, it was imperative for Anand to take up the operational responsibilities. Anand has always been integral to DAN operations and, in some ways, this is a formalization of this duty. I strongly believe that Anand will successfully implement and integrate our strategies to take this growth forward.”
