MUMBAI: The Advertising Agencies Association of India (AAAI) and Subhas Ghosal Foundation (SGF) are pleased to announce the Subhas Ghosal Memorial Lecture which will see The Walt Disney Company Asia Pacific president, and Star and Disney India chairman Uday Shankar on Monday, 11 November 2019 at 7 pm at The Great Room, Four Seasons, Worli, Mumbai.

Shankar will speak on “Why have I been in media for 30 years” and walk us through his journey in the media and entertainment industry over the past three decades.

AAAI president Ashish Bhasin says, “We are very happy that Uday Shankar will be delivering the AAAI Subhas Ghosal Memorial Lecture 2019. As a captain of the industry, Uday perhaps has the best visibility to all the facets of the broadcast and OTT industry and we look forward to hearing his views. I must also compliment Sam Balsara on behalf of the AAAI for driving this initiative with great gusto”.

Says Sam Balsara, on behalf of SGF, “In a rapidly changing advertising world, TV continues to dominate ADEX and grow at a double-digit rate. It will be interesting to hear Uday Shankar’s views on how the TV Industry has carved out a dominant share for itself in the advertising market and plays a very major role in the lives of the majority of Indians, through the absorbing stories, that it puts out every day, 24 X 7.”

All members of advertising, marketing, media and digital community are welcome. However, entry is only by invitation. Please send an email to Sudesh Kapoor at AAAI on his email id [email protected] to receive an invitation.
