MUMBAI: Admitad has appointed Neha Kulwal, formerly the country manager, as the Asia-Pacific managing director. Admitad’s India operations were launched with the vision of becoming the largest, most trusted partner network and martech & fintech solutions provider. The company is confident it can increase growth in the entire APAC region under the leadership of Neha Kulwal, it said in a statement.
Having joined Admitad six years ago, Neha Kulwal has established a solid market position for the company, increasing the business volume five times and attracting new clients across diverse industries. Neha has built a steady team of more than 50 people working for the company in the region today. Her ability to act as a team leader and as a true people person gained her respect throughout the entire Admitad family and beyond.
Since 2020, the company has increased the size of its partner portfolio in India and added a significant number of advertisers and publishers as partners and clients. The total sales generated by Admitad tools for brands almost doubled between 2019 and 2021. Top-tier brands such as Flipkart, Croma, Ajio, BoAt Lifestyle, Samsung, Myntra, Kotak, Mcaffeine, and Times of India enjoy long-term, profitable partnerships with Admitad in the APAC market.
Neha Kulwal said, ” I am delighted and truly honoured to receive this recognition. This is the beginning of a new chapter in Admitad’s journey in the region. I am confident that APAC, given its immense growth opportunities, will live up to its full potential in driving our business to greater heights. We started Admitad’s India operations with a clear vision of becoming the biggest and most trusted partner network. I am very proud of what we as a team have achieved in the last six years and, with this new responsibility at hand, I intend to grow our APAC operations by replicating the India success story.”
“Neha Kulwal is a truly top player and an inspiring leader of the digital economy. We appreciate her experience and her business sense, and could not think of anyone being a better perfect fit for our ambitious goals in the region. It will be exciting to see more Admitad APAC projects and initiatives set benchmarks in this market,” said Admitad founder and CEO Alexander Bachmann.
Admitad has recently moved into the new office in Gurugram, offering additional businesses and solutions beyond its partner network, including Tapfiliate, ConvertSocial, Univibes, and Coupon Whitelabel. In the near future, the company will continue to invest in developing its infrastructure in APAC.

The India edition will recognise 100 emerging leaders from the country and the global Indian diaspora, spanning business, science, sports, arts and social impact. The list will be curated by Time’s editorial team and published online, continuing the franchise’s focus on identifying individuals shaping the future.
The initiative will culminate in a gala event scheduled for December 2026 at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre, anchoring the platform within India’s cultural and business ecosystem.
TIME’s broader Time100 franchise has steadily expanded its global footprint since 2021 through events and impact-led initiatives. Executives noted that India’s growing pool of influential voices and innovators made it a natural next step for the platform’s international ambitions.
