AI and media tech veteran to steer global business push in CME vertical
MUMBAI: Larsen and Toubro has brought on board seasoned media and technology executive Anupam Sengupta in a senior leadership role within its LTM division, tasking him with shaping strategy and global business development for its communications, media and technology vertical.
In his new role at L&T LTM, Sengupta will focus on driving consulting-led growth, sharpening global go-to-market strategies, and building deep-tech partnerships, with a particular emphasis on AI-led transformation.
Sengupta joins from Camb.ai, where he served as business head for SAARC and Southeast Asia. There, he played a key role in establishing the company’s regional presence, accelerating adoption of voice AI solutions and securing high-profile enterprise partnerships.
His career spans more than two decades across AI infrastructure, SaaS, consumer technology and media, with leadership roles at companies such as immerso.ai and Eros Innovation, where he worked at the intersection of streaming, gaming and enterprise AI applications.
Earlier, Sengupta spent over a decade at Sony Group, leading digital sales and partnerships across South Asia and managing large P&L portfolios. His experience also includes stints at WPP Group, Zee Group and Standard Chartered Bank, giving him a cross-sector view of both media and non-media ecosystems.
Known for building high-value partnerships and scaling new business lines, Sengupta has worked across global markets, handling enterprise SaaS sales, strategic alliances and large deal cycles, often in emerging technology environments.
His appointment comes as Larsen and Toubro sharpens its focus on digital and media technology services, an area seeing strong demand as AI, streaming and content platforms converge.
With Sengupta at the helm of strategy and global growth initiatives, the company appears set to deepen its play in the fast-evolving media tech landscape, where scale, speed and smart partnerships increasingly define success.

NODWIN Gaming brings back Sidharth Kedia as chief strategy and investments officer ahead of IPO
Former CEO returns to drive fundraising, M&A and global expansion plans
GURUGRAM: NODWIN Gaming has appointed Sidharth Kedia as chief strategy and investments officer, marking a high-profile return as the company gears up for its next growth phase and a potential public listing.
Kedia, who previously served as CEO between 2019 and 2023, steps back in at a pivotal time with a mandate spanning strategy, fundraising and mergers and acquisitions. His appointment comes amid ongoing pre-IPO fundraising efforts and a broader push to strengthen shareholder value.
During his earlier stint, Kedia helped transform NODWIN’s trajectory, driving a tenfold jump in revenue and raising over $50 million in capital. He also played a key role in expanding the company beyond esports into a diversified youth media and entertainment platform. Under his leadership, the company’s valuation grew sharply, from around Rs 140 crore following Nazara Technologies’ investment in 2018 to $350 million pre-money after a funding round led by Sony Group Corporation in 2023.
With over two decades of experience, Kedia brings a cross-sector perspective spanning fintech, private equity and media. His career includes stints at Reliance Industries, where he worked on strategic initiatives across the Network18 portfolio, and at Viacom18, where he led corporate strategy and M&A efforts.
In his new role, Kedia will focus on sharpening NODWIN’s long-term strategy, identifying inorganic growth opportunities and strengthening its global investment narrative as the company builds a scalable, IP-led business across gaming, content and live experiences.
NODWIN Gaming chief strategy and investments officer Sidharth Kedia said, “It feels great to be back at NODWIN at such an important point in its journey. Having seen the company grow over the years, it’s clear how strong the foundation is today and how much opportunity lies ahead. NODWIN is entering a phase where focused strategy, thoughtful capital allocation, and strong execution will unlock its true value potential.”
Welcoming him back, NODWIN Gaming co-founder and managing director Akshat Rathee said, “Sidharth has played a pivotal role in shaping NODWIN’s journey, and his return comes at an important stage as we continue to scale the business globally and look at a potential listing. His leadership will be instrumental in driving long-term value creation.”
The appointment follows recent board strengthening, including the induction of Arnd Benninghoff, as the company builds institutional depth ahead of a possible IPO.
Backed by strong financial momentum, with revenues already surpassing last year’s full-year figures within the first nine months of FY26, NODWIN is doubling down on scale and strategy. With Kedia back in the mix, the company appears to be lining up its next big level up.
