Dhruv Shah has been elevated to senior vice president – CX, while Anmol Dang takes on the role of vice president - media (West). Salman Shamsi has been elevated to associate vice president – brand reputation management.

These elevations align with the agency’s unprecedented growth trajectory and commitment to increased efficiency.

To scale up operations, the agency appointed Ankit Banga as chief business officer. His deep understanding of growth-focused strategies significantly expanded the agency’s operations and client roster.

From its launch in 2023, FCB/SIX India grew its team threefold to 170 kinnectors. The agency has also successfully onboarded several high-profile Indian and global clients, including Crompton, SBI, Polycab, Amazon, HDFC Bank, Plum, Aditya Birla Capital, ZF Aftermarket, among others. 

The agency’s thoughtful integration of creative and media delivers impactful, amplified results for its brands.
