Network Advertising appoints Akashneel Dasgupta as CCO

Network Advertising has announced the appointment of Akashneel Dasgupta as chief creative officer. 

 

He moves from BBDO Gurugram where he was chief creative officer.

 

Dasgupta said, “Independent. Integrated and most importantly Indian. Not too many agencies can truly claim to be that in the current scenario. Added to that is a culture of empathy and transparency. It is a story which deserves to travel further, and I would be extremely happy to contribute to this wonderful place, that is an outlier in today’s world. At the same time preserve the culture which has been carefully built over decades, by the current team.”

 

Vinod Nair, MD, Network Advertising, said, “We are extremely fortunate to have a powerhouse of talent like Akashneel on board at Network. A rare combination of a strategic planner turned creative director; I am looking forward to seeing his leadership in collaborating with his team in creating work that adds value to our client’s businesses."

 

Dasgupta has also had stints with DDB Mudra, Lowe Lintas and ADK Fortune.
