Artemis Hospitals, WATConsult highlight the importance of pledging organs
MUMBAI: Due to the lack of organ donation approximately 5 lakh people across the nation die each year as there is a huge demand-supply gap between the number of transplants awaited and the organs available.
Over the years, the idea of organ donation has often been spoken about as ‘an act of giving’ but Artemis Hospitals and WATConsult, the digital and social media agency from Dentsu Aegis Network India, decided to look at organ donation from a different lens.
Launched on the occasion of ‘World Organ Donor Day’, 13 August, #GetSecondLife, portrays ‘organ donation’ as an act of not just giving a new life to the recipient but also a second life to the donors.
WATConsult founder and CEO Rajiv Dingra said, “#GetSecondLife is a need of the hour initiative because we all plan the best for us to live a healthy and a memorable life but sometimes, life just ends too soon. But when you pledge an organ, you gift yourself another chance at life. You promise yourself a plethora of moments, experiences and thrills that you will live through a cross-section of people who may benefit from your organs.”
Commenting on the same Artemis Global Life Sciences MD Dr Devlina Chakravarty added, “#GetSecondLife talks to potential donors, urging them to give this gift of life, not only to the recipients who will benefit, but to themselves. By committing to donate your organs, you promise yourself a chance of dreaming again, breathing again, experiencing again and living again. In this drive, we urge you to not only pledge your organs but, also lend your voice of support to make the movement bigger.”
The campaign video showcase the fact that a part of your body can give you a chance to live-on in some form even after you have moved on. So pledge your organs as a second life awaits you. Along with heavy push on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram there will be a special microsite,www.getsecondlife.com, too.
The donor will also be introduced on social platforms like Facebook and Instagram filter saying “Proud Organ Donor” with the hashtag #GetSecondLife.
NATIONAL: Amazon Ads has laid out a sharply tech-led vision for the advertising industry in 2026, arguing that artificial intelligence, streaming TV and creator partnerships will combine to turn brand building into a more precise, performance-driven business.
At the heart of the shift, the company says, is the fusion of AI with Amazon’s vast trove of shopping, browsing and streaming signals, allowing advertisers to move beyond blunt reach metrics to campaigns designed around real customer behaviour.
“The future of advertising is not about reaching more people, but the right people with messages that resonate,” said Amazon Ads India head and vice president Girish Prabhu. “By combining AI with deep customer insights, we help brands move from broadcasting campaigns to having meaningful conversations wherever audiences spend their time.”
One of the biggest changes, according to Amazon Ads, will be the collapse of the wall between media planning and creative development. Retail media, powered by first-party data, is increasingly shaping everything from brand discovery to final purchase, pushing marketers to design campaigns around audience insight rather than internal instinct.
AI is also moving from a support tool to a creative engine. Agentic AI, which automates and accelerates production, is expected to make high-quality creative accessible even to small businesses, compressing weeks of work into hours and giving challengers the ability to compete with larger brands on speed and scale.
Behind the scenes, AI-driven analytics will take on a bigger role in campaign optimisation, identifying patterns, spotting opportunities and recommending actions that would previously have required teams of analysts.
Streaming TV is another big battleground. With India’s video streaming audience now above 600 million and connected TV users at 129.2 million in 2025, advertisers are set to treat streaming not just as a branding channel but as a performance engine, measured increasingly by sales, sign-ups and bookings rather than just reach.
Finally, Amazon Ads sees creators and contextual advertising reshaping how brands tell stories. Creators will act less like influencers and more like long-term partners, while scene-aware ads on streaming platforms will allow brands to insert hyper-relevant offers into the flow of what viewers are watching.
Taken together, Amazon Ads argues, these shifts mark a move towards advertising that is both more human and more measurable, where AI handles the complexity, and creativity does the persuading.
