A Night That Celebrated Impact, Ingenuity & Influence
How could we begin the evening without paying our heartfelt tribute to the legendary adman Piyush Pandey, a name synonymous with the evolution of modern Indian advertising. His ideas, his voice, and his unmistakable creative spirit have shaped not just campaigns but culture, inspiring generations of brand-builders and storytellers.
The event kicked off with a powerhouse keynote by Abhishek Mazumdar, Founder of The Logical Indian, on ‘Creative Minds: The Roles and Responsibilities to Inspire and Disrupt.’ He set the tone for the day with sharp insights, bold perspectives, and a dynamic exchange that had the audience hooked from the first minute.
Of course, what’s an evening like this without a few sharp corporate jokes in a room full of marketers, innovators, and Millennial Achievers 2025 contenders who live and breathe brand banter every day? To set the perfect tone for the night, we kicked things off with a stand-up act by Arjun Pratap Rana, known for his witty, relatable corporate humour that never fails to get the room giggling and warmed up for what’s ahead.
Millennial Achievers has always been more than an award- it’s a platform that champions bold ideas, celebrates fearless innovation, and recognises the minds shaping tomorrow’s brand and consumer landscape.
