I believe technology is helping us move forward, with speed and efficiency. I also believe technology is slowing me down. I believe technology is simplifying my life. I also believe that it’s taking away the simplicity I want from life. The question I ask myself often is that “Am I an addict but don’t want to acknowledge it? What about you?
There is a popular saying that DR OR Die. On the other hand, Coca Cola along with many brands that consistently figure in the list of world’s most valued brands focus mainly on brand communication. So, what’s the right approach? There are two schools of marketers and the answer probably exists somewhere in between. Pl join Sandeep and me to discuss this. We don’t pretend to know the answers and look forward to co-create the approaches that will work for various marketers.

Can we rethink consumption patterns, rethink life cycle of products and to embody a cradle to cradle approach? Can we change our lifestyles and practices to emulate sustainable natural cycles? Can we reduce what we trash in landfills and incinerators to zero? Everyone is invited to workshop and making "zero waste" personal care products while talking trash.The question I am asking is: why not prevent waste in the first place?

The rise of ultra-left and nationalist feelings is now happening across the world. Trump, Brexit, Marine Le Pen, and even to some extent Modi, are all symptoms of the same underlying issues. Why is it happening now? And do brands need to take a stance on these issues too?

India has witnessed sporadic eruptions of stirs and unrest over the last few years. On the surface some of them seem to be propelled by economic compulsions while some others seem to be driven by cultural issues. But stripped of all the outward manifestations, are they all really about reclaiming identity? Are they all isolated local issues or are there some underlying threads of commonality?

It’s not just the millennial you should be worried about, it’s the informed consumer.

Fact: 62% of marginalised Indian students drop out of school before passing the 10th standard, lacking the basic education and vocational skills required to earn a livelihood. By 2025, we will have 500 million jobs, which only 2% of formally trained students can fill in. This is because vocational training, leading to blue collared professions like plumbers, electricians, beauticians, tailors are for ‘losers’ who didn’t make it to college. This is a real problem we have the WPP Foundation. We are the clients and we have budgets.Help us understand how we can change attitudes of 500 million Indians and make Vocational training sexy and aspirational to them.

Our society is in danger ... from many sources, and ideas and ideology is a big part of things. Recent rise of fake news (and more accurately perhaps, hate news) clearly demonstrates the problem we are up against.

Meditation is all the rage these days, yoga is in. This session explores what it all actually is ;-) But from our own background, rooted in the Upanishads, we already know the Truth. Meditation is a way to gain true Understanding of this world, and it culminates in the ability to see for yourself what is Real, and what is Unreal. Come to this talk for a bunch of philosophy and conversation, and exchange notes about your practice if you like! P. S. - it even has business value!
As competition heats up in the Indian market players such as Jio have driven a paradigm shift by launching their free data offer. Is predatory pricing the new weapon?

Join the discussion to debate and discuss these and many more such angles to what promises to be a never before witnessed time for the Indian marketer.

Why do we always speak of politics in third person? Why do we never use lofty adjectives when we describe politicians? Why are they never perceived with the same trust, admiration and respect as a corner office CXO? Can we make politics a more organized sector?

Certainly not on Naukri or Linkedin! It's common knowledge that the best talent is not often actively looking for opportunities. They are also not mostly attracted to positions.

Each of us has heard the statement "That's the stupidest idea I have ever heard" at least once in our life. They are typically said because the proposed idea probably defies the conventional thinking at the time. However, some folks have made a career out of executing to those ideas successfully. This conversation should shed light on the power and value of contrarian thinking using examples from Starbucks (who will ever pay so much money for coffee?) to Fedex to other such companies and the takeaways for us in our personal and professional lives
LinkedIn is the world's largest platform and used by everyone to maintain their professional identity and for professional growth. However, when it comes to leveraging the platform for their brands, there are a lot of per-conceived notions about what the platform can or cannot deliver.

Most of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement. But this well-established pathway is already beginning to collapse. As life expectancy is rising, job security and pensions are vanishing, and an increasing numbers of people are juggling multiple careers. Whether we are 18, 45 or 60, we will need to do things very differently from previous generations and learn to structure our work and professional life in completely new ways. The discussion will deliberate on how one can learn to make the transitions needed for this new way of living, working and learning?

According to research, people identify with one or more of the following six workplace personality types - realistic, investigative, artistic, social, enterprising, and conventional. While, no one is in a fixed bucket, most people have a combination of two or more types - for example : social-enterprising or conventional-realistic. It is also said that people who are the most successful and fulfilled in their careers tend to work in an environment compatible with their workplace personality type. Hence, the discussion will try and understand the nuances of our personalities better and match each to an ideal workspace, from open offices to private spaces to telecommuting.

Software is eating the world, Marc Andreesen famously said. Besides software and advertising, many other industries predominantly employ knowledge workers whose tangible work output is created on a computer. With device & task mobility and ubiquitous connectivity, it's time to rethink how we work. Perhaps, "Out Of Office" should be the norm?
The Children's Scrappy News Service
Yup. Because we, grown-ups have monumentally messed up our world. Think about it - pollution, bad air, no toilets, no place to play, not enough schools, bad roads, violence, crime, plastic in the ocean, girls are not playing enough. If the only solution is to reach every child, every where in the world ( say a 100 million of them), empower them to right our wrongs, give them the choice of changing, saving our world, taking over, going sustainable, starting enterprises, living with empathy, having a better life - how would you do it? And now. There’s no time left. P.S - Every kid, everywhere, means just that.
The Children's Scrappy News Service
For girls. For boys. Because in schools, government schools, often private schools, in cities, in villages - the most remote one you can think of, more often than not, kids (and grown-ups who like playing) don’t have a safe place to play. A place that is not encroached, a place that has toilets, a room to change, lights to play after dark, grown ups to help them, coach them. It’s fun to play. Everyone should play. And it’s great for our overall existence. Why then are we (grown-ups, media, government, Justin Trudeau, the universe) doing nothing (or not enough) to change this situation? Right to play. Revolt to play.

Most of the time as a marketer we consider the views & engagement metrics to gauge the success of any video be it a pure story content or commercial ad. Sometimes even we don't consider how many people actually completed 100% of the video. I promise this is going to be a fun discussion. We will break down all the various ways to analyze watch time across platforms & the importance of it by applying some use cases around.

Does segmentation & understanding your audience's behaviour across social video platforms (YT,FB,Twitter,Instagram,Snapchat) help you create better marketable content? When it comes to data, people talk a lot about social listening. I believe you cannot wait for people to talk about something to know weather they like a certain kind of content or not. An open discussion for people who somewhere deep in their heart believe that success of a video not only depends on content but also on how you use data and insights.

Questions that I ask myself/my team, and would love to discuss with you all: 1. How do brands interact better with people on social media? 2. How do people interact with each other about brands on social media, in a better way? 3. Is there an opportunity for a social media platform to be centered around brands / what brands stand for? 4. If at all, can such a platform be built out of India? 5. How can marketing be done best with & via people v/s at them?
Mindshare
Irrespective of integrating as many data sets as possible, marketers still do not know if they reached the same consumer from YouTube and/or from Facebook or from any other platforms. This is the single largest challenge marketers have, dealing with the walled gardens; single largest “dis-service” the digital platforms are doing to themselves in the online advertising world, by zealously guarding their own data. The reality is that there will be another world which is "off the grid" and probably the consumers will live to keep it that way - will remain to be 50% of the universe, by choice; until the Internet of Things wires the entire Universe.

We are most definitely entering a new era. An era post globalisation and digitization; where after M having delivered his operating system, it is the Oracle that is going to disturb the status quo with her micro communities. For every force of “globalization” there is now an equally strong and emerging force of “recognition” – one that is pushing the humanity towards some measurable and supporting identity to which it can cling on to – to give it a purpose – here and now.

Those who were born in 80s remember the times of sharing scarcity. Food was a collective idea. Clothes too were up for grabs within family (and extended relatives). Love and relationships was easy - we just to had find that 'one' to settle with, and it was literally just 'one'. Now we are in the times of Tinder, Swiggy, Downloads and a host of entertainment services at just a click away and life ain't that easy as it was supposed to be.

First, there was the Internet of Things, the idea that we will become a networked society with our houses, cars, work and social circles. And it makes sense that if we are going to be connected through the internet, we need a financial system that works within that environment. Hence, the idea of the Internet of Money was born. A radical change in the form of financial innovation is imminent, and the answer is Cryptocurrency.

India as per recent report by App Annie NASSCOM has joined the top 5 countries in 2016 for game downloads with over 1.6 billion of game downloads that will jump to 5.3B by 2020. Another report by Tune mentioned that 84% of smartphone users in India play games with at least 2-3 games regularly across all age groups from 8-55 years.What is though unique about gamers in India is they play more casual games,foreign games & don't have propensity to pay unlike the West or even East counterparts. While at one end game developers to make it big in India have to look at customization, sachetization, offline advertising at the other end brands need to figure out how can they engage with this rapidly growing community in an non-intrusive yet engaging way?
