Govind Pandey, CEO, TBWA\ India, said, “TBWA is on a continuous journey to find new avenues through which we can deliver disruptive growth for our clients. Weapon is our way to be strategic partners to our clients throughout the value chain. Our deep consumer focus, cultural creative design – now combined with our expertise in data-led insights and execution – is critical in framing and answering the key growth questions that every CEO has.”

 

Vyas said, "The CEO is faced with a multitude of factors that are affecting brand performance and growth. The ever-changing customer needs and behaviours across channels have necessitated the use of data in creative and meaningful ways. At the same time, the need for a nuanced understanding of the customer and the market is ever present.

The unique consumer-centric point of view, enhanced with a data-driven thought process, is a gamechanger in the industry and TBWA is well-positioned to serve this need effectively. I’m excited to join TBWA and partner with some of the biggest and best brands in India – helping fuel the level of innovation and strategic thinking we can offer our clients and finding opportunities to unlock growth using the power of data."
