After two blockbuster editions that set new benchmarks in the world of advertising, marketing, media, and startups, Marketing Mind is proud to announce the return of its flagship IP – Millennial Achievers Awards 2025. Bigger, bolder, and sharper than ever before, this third edition reaffirms our mission to honour the young visionaries who are reshaping the industry with disruptive thinking, fearless ambition, and relentless creativity.
Conceptualised in 2023, Millennial Achievers Awards was born from a single vision – to spotlight the achievements of millennials who are breaking boundaries, steering businesses into the future, and proving that bold ideas can spark real change. In just two years, it has evolved into one of the most prestigious platforms of recognition for India’s new-age leaders – the ones who aren’t waiting for opportunities but are creating them.
Last year’s edition saw an overwhelming response, with 250+ nominations across 20 categories, and witnessed industry-wide participation that validated the sheer importance of celebrating young achievers. And this year, the bar is set even higher. Millennial Achievers Awards 2025 will sharpen its focus on creativity, impact, and innovation, while expanding its horizon to recognise excellence across advertising, marketing, media, entertainment, and the startup ecosystem.
These awards are not just about celebrating success; they are about recognising the catalysts of transformation – the millennials who are rewriting rules, crafting bold campaigns, taking entrepreneurial leaps, and proving time and again that ambition backed by action can truly redefine industries.
Our deepest gratitude also extends to the stellar jury of 2024, which included some of the most respected names in India’s A&M fraternity – Aditi Mishra (Lodestar UM), Ajay Gupte (Wavemaker), Alekhya Chakrabarty (Unstop), Ashish Tiwari (Home Credit), Babita Baruah (VML India), Binaifer Dulani (Talented.Agency), Bodhisatwa Dasgupta (The Voice Company), Hema Malik (Mediabrands India), Jaikishin Chhaproo (ITC), Jyotsna Dash Nanda (DS Group), Karan Shroff (LightFury Games), Krishnarao Buddha (Ex-Parle Products), Neel Gogia (IPLIX Media), Nisha Narayanan (Red FM), Niti Kumar (Starcom), Pallavi Chakravarti (Fundamental), Rumi Ambastha (Mila Beauté), Sanjeev Jasani (Cheil), Viral Pandya and Viren Sean Noronha (The New Thing). Their expertise elevated the credibility of the awards and made Millennial Achievers a benchmark in its own right.
As it enters its third edition, Millennial Achievers Awards 2025 rises beyond being an awards show to become a movement that celebrates the fearless spirit of a new generation. It is a stage for ambition that refuses to be boxed in, creativity that sparks revolutions, and resilience that turns challenges into milestones. Here, we honour the millennials who aren’t just chasing change – they are the ones creating it!
Stay tuned as we unveil the categories, eligibility criteria, and the jury lineup for 2025. This is where the future of advertising, marketing, media, and startups comes alive!
