WeWork India demystifies its offerings for India Inc.
Mumbai: While WeWork India is often seen as a hub for startups and SMBs, known for its great coffee, vibrant culture, and appeal to young entrepreneurs, the reality is that it is ever so much more. As per the release WeWork India has become a cultural epicentre and a preferred workspace for many of India’s large enterprises, businesses, and even Fortune 500 companies. It provides the sort of customisation that can cater to teams of any size – a single seat, or two, or ten, a private floor, or one’s building – whatever the requirement. It offers the kind of flexibility that allows organisations that operate in multiple cities to work seamlessly. The value-adds and overall facility management work out cost-effectively in the long run and eliminate operational worries. It can give clients the type of design and layout choices that convert a workspace into a fully personalised one, and not a prototype of the WeWork aesthetic. It’s an exhaustive list and an attractive one, for anyone considering where to set up shop.
The question, therefore, was how to bridge the gap between perception and reality. What people think WeWork India is about versus what it is about.
The answer: Your Office, Your Way. A myth-busting campaign created by Fundamental, that encompasses all that WeWork offers by drawing parallels with everyday office life. Instances, characters, and practices that anyone who has ever had a job will identify with.
Speaking about this perception-altering shift in the brand’s strategy, WeWork India Chief Marketing Officer Debosmita Majumder said, “For a long time, WeWork India has been seen as startup-centric, but our clientele has fast evolved to become enterprise-led. However, market awareness of this shift has been limited, and we aim to change that with this brand campaign. As the needs of corporate India have evolved, enterprises and Fortune 500 companies are now seeking flexible real estate solutions that meet the unique demands of today’s workforce. WeWork India is equipped to provide productive workspaces, exceptional services, and scalable solutions for all office-goers across cities in India.”
Speaking about the campaign further Fundamental founder & CCO Pallavi Chakravarti added, “Sometimes you just have to tell it like it is. Given the sharpness of the problem we identified, the solution wrote itself. Our target audience spans interns to head honchos and everyone in between. Anyone who has spent any time at all in a professional environment understands all too well the tropes we’ve leaned into with this campaign. So while there are many things about office life they all know to be true, there are some truths they are oblivious to. Like how much sense it makes to take up office space at WeWork India.”
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.
